Meara won't be back next season we can get rid of that test dummy for the medical staff. Johanson is enormous and I think he can turn into a player but will almost certainly be our backup next season.
Matt Dunn And Akira Fitzgerald On Waivers
- Thread starter pastofthefuture
- Start date
Hopefully whatever keeper we bring in to replace Meara will be good enough to compete with Saunders for the starting role, and keep Johanson as the #3.
I agree with this so much from a logic perspective. But could please stop reminding me we were a Delgado and a Tab away from winning the U20 world cup?
This leaves us at 27 players on our roster. 2 on the disabled list so that's 25. Pirlo Angelino and Iraola.
That makes 28. So leaves us with possibility to sign an additional 2 players with this current roster.
MagnusPax let me know if I missed something.

New roster rules only allow a 28 man roster so by your calculations we would have no space. I have the count at 29 right now and that includes Iraola, Angelino, Pirlo and Lampard. If we count Taylor and John on the IR we have 27 out of 28 spots filled
... Mls didn't update those rules eh their own site said 30.
How did you come up with 29?
NYCFC roster page already has Lampard so I counted him.

Either way this makes me sad.
I've been keeping my own list because the team hasn't updated the app at all. Maybe I'm missing something but I have 29. Anyone see any mistakes?
The website doesn't show Johansen. That was my mistake.
If we do a season long loan to Wilmington would that free up a spot?
It's Kwame's time to go... #KutKwame
Dont worry even the MLS doesnt understand its own rules.
I know. He's on the season injury list. Does anyone know if George John is also on that list?
Correct.
Vito alright I think both of our math was off.29 players - 2 with John and Tony puts you at 27 plus Pirlo 28.
So they probably will make more room if NY Post was right about 3-5 more players coming in.
Sorry to see Matt go. Great guy and I hope he catches on.
I don't understand the scouting by Kreis. He seems awful at this. He drafts Dunn #2 overall. What a waste.
Then he gets McNamara, who works out here, but was available at 2. Nigel Reo-Coker was available.
And the guy I wanted, Marky Delgado, was available. Yes, he was poor in the U-20s, but I thought Kreis wanted to develop USMNT players? There's one who is already in the program. Keep him around, he's cheap. He's homegrown anyway. You can loan him out. Makes NO sense.

See my other post. Loans only take up a roster spot IF you retain the right to recall.
My inference from that would also be that a season-long loanee would not count against your cap, since he is not on your roster.
I'm boycotting the club because they waived Matt Dunn, instead of voting #winnycfc 10,000 times tomorrow, I will only vote 9,999 times in honor of him, and then on Friday I will vote 21,000 times for pirlo.
Now may not be the best time to mention this, but Delgado started tonight at CM and completed 36 of 38 passes.
Also, in "Midas facepalms over NYC Personnel Decisions", Lletget has scored and earned a penalty in 16 minutes. He has 3 goals now. Dammmmmmmmittttttt.
