i honestly dont like him in CB i still feel he is shaky there. However, i still want to keep him to fill in the midfield when needed. i dont think acevedo is coming back either.
EDIT: hmmmm sounds like agent talk

Norwegian center back Birk Risa signing with NYCFC: Report
25-year-old center back Birk Risa is reportedly on the verge of joining NYCFC in a transfer priced around $1 million from Molde FK in his native Norway.

Maybe he was thinking of the Dirk Risa Onlyfans account. Something for everyone these days. What a country!
Hunh. He basically made one inexcusable howler but I would argue that his positioning, confidence on the ball and line breaking balls out of the back have been excellent in recent weeks.
I had all but written him off as a positive contributor at the top of the year. But he won me back even before the goal.
He rendered Alfaro totally redundant. IMHO he’s been one of the few really encouraging developments this season. Our defense has objectively been good this year despite what we all thought was going to be a very stretched roster, compounded by the extended absences of Sands and Martins. Let’s take a breath, give credit where it’s due, and appreciate the fact that we aren’t forced, like the Galaxy, to fork over for a not very good backup.
Algeria aren’t exactly slouches. Considering that a guy named Mahrez is inked in at one forward spot and most of the rest of the forwards play in France and Belgium, I don’t think there’s a ton of shame in him not having senior caps. Other than Villa, have we ever signed a striker (or even a winger) with any real senior level profile at a top NT?
I want another striker signing but I’m choosing optimism here.
its not just that, i felt he got beat a lot in the same game, chanot covered for him couple of times vs charlotte ( although you could argue that is what is supposed to happen). at least thats how i remember it seeing the game behind the goal vs charlotte. he may be an ok option as a back up but not going against teams like philly or upper table teams. i still prefer him in the midfield.
im not saying alfaro should go ahead of him, alfaro was a vuk replacement from the start at least i felt that way. i would not say the defense has been good since there have a been a few games where they cant close out the game and get a late goal scored against. its been alright.
I look forward to missing the playoffs but by a closer amount now.
I'm with you on this, after his performances the last two seasons, I didn't really get my hopes high. But he's really found himself the last several matches at the LCB position.
And yeah, he had a rough match against Charlotte midweek, but that happens. I've been overall impressed with his progress this season and would like to admit I am wrong in thinking he couldn't be where he is now.
ETA: "would like to admit" is a stretch, I've had a few old fashioneds tonight. I would like to update that to "will admit"
Btw, Blue Balls podcast reporting that 6 years ago, right before Sean Johnson was traded for, the club tried to sign Buffon.
I mean, unless they were sitting on that nugget for a while, there aren't too many front office people still around from 6 years ago...
If Sands didn’t make it in Scotland , not sure on the thinking that Haak will do better
id say there is a chance if its not Celtic/ Rangers. any tiny mistake or issue gets magnified X100.
if you want to narrow it down to MLS academy prospects. Polvara is back in the US, but playing in USL...on loan though.
ah my mistake then. I knew he was in charleston earlier in the year.
the club should go after sadio mane ... bayern doesn't seem to want him anymore.
come to MLS SADIO!
