2023 Roster and Transfer Discussion Thread

Another thing is, for me, actions of the past do not predict actions of the future. (I feel like there's a saying for this, but I can't remember... lol)

 

[Shwafta]

Sort-of... I'm trying to say that just because someone did X in the past, doesn't mean they'll do X in the future as well. slightly different i guess?

A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds.

"I don't remember ever doing that.. I'm a new man now! fuck you!" that? lol

Kei Kamara requested a trade from CF Montreal. He was on a salary of $84,000 last season ($94,000 total compensation) per MLSPA. I am absolutely giving Montreal a call there, he would be a great option to put behind Talles at that position.

That salary is insanely reasonable for a player that has scored so many goals in the MLS, but he's also 38.

They didn’t say big name. Just “big”

He has one of my favorite quotes. Someone asked him what he’d be if he wasn’t a footballer and his response was “I’d be a virgin”. Always the first thing I think of when I see Crouch and it cracks me up

9 goals, 7 assists in like 1500 minutes last year. 32 games/14 starts. He's clearly still got it. I'm hoping it's only a one-year deal he has left, but I'm making that call. At that salary, it's a no-brainer and every MLS team should be interested.

I wonder why he requested the trade.

Yep, should definitely be given a call to be a backup striker. What’s his numbers last year compared to Heber’s? At $100k vs $800k?

8 goals, 0 assists in about 1000 minutes. So Heber had more goals/90.

Is that player actually a rumor?

Is that player actually a rumor?

We are rumor free for now.

But I will note that I predicted Jo Inge Berget to NYCFC long before he became an official rumor.
