2025 Roster and Transfer Discussion Thread

Well, they have a chance to redeem themselves now. Do it right and we can make some noise, maybe some serious noise, those last 10 games and into the playoffs.

Do it wrong and we'll suck.

But I take solace from the fact we've already won a Cup from the middle of the pack. And with Pascal as our gaffer, I feel really good about our chances of doing it again — if Nico and Gustavo pan out. (I think they will.)

We may need that rumored winger/striker acquisition, though.

Well, considering it's Lee picking the players, fingers crossed that there is some truth in the old saying that even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in a while.

Is that the saying?

Maybe? It's very possible I am misremembering the saying. I should have stated it more directly: David Lee’s track record with high-cost transfer signings, particularly attackers, has been abysmal and doesn’t inspire much confidence.

The sun shines on a dog’s ass some days would work here too.

Guessing no choice of Gustavo pre Leagues Cup?
