NYCFC Players Wanted Thread

[QuigrNYCFC]

I'm going to throw this list together based off nothing more than 3 seconds of thought

Iniesta, Fabregas, Kompany, Torres, Honda.

All of them younger than Villa, all of them on the outs with their team. Can easily see all of them in NYC and they would fit our play style.

Torres Villa reunion would be sweet. I don't think they would be as deadly together as they once were. It would certainly take some of the goal scoring pressure off Villa though.

Now imagine Iniesta, Torres, Villa and Casillas in goal?

John Obi Mikel is out of favor at Chelsea and his contract is expiring. Maybe Frank can put in the good word but he's more likely to go to Turkey or China.

Since when is Iniesta on the outs with his team?

I'd love Cesc for Pirlo.

You like a Catalan player? I'm shocked

I can endure the Barca stench for NYCFC's benefit

Not in the sense that he's on bad terms, but in the sense That he's starting less games this season as he's behind Rakitic.

I assume he'd want more playing time, and perhaps a big payday like Xavi did.

Sounding more and more like Schwieni to Chicago is a thing. Maybe he was inspired by what Theo did with the Cubbies.

If that happens and they hold onto Accam and sign another DP, they'll be a real threat.

I always thought they were dangerous. They just have holes that can be exploited and then they fall apart.

Chicago is my surprise playoff pick next year. Good coach good players needed time to gel. RB is my surprise no playoff team.

Meh. Schweisteiger will get injured and Accam is good but overrated bc he's been the only offensive threat on the team for a while.

Accam might be on his way to Helsingborg.

Accam might be on his way to Helsingborg.

Chicago is the poster child of ultra cheap old school MLS ownership, if they are going to layout the money for Schweisteiger they probably will dump Accam as a cost offset. The Schweisteiger rumors still seem hard to believe given the fact the team usually carries only 1 DP at a salary in the $700K range. You have to wonder if the league plans to pick up a big chunk of whatever Schweisteiger ends up costing in an attempt to turn around the horrible attendance numbers. Or maybe it's a make up for when they screwed them over on J. Jones and sent him to NE.

Robbie Keane is available. Who would take him for one year?

 

[canchon]

He did something that led to Shelton doing something that led to someone scoring a goal.

I remember this play, he dribbled down the sideline, past one player, overlapped past another into the corner and then laid the ball off perfectly to Shelton at the edge of the box...which then something something happened and a goal was scored.

Chanot has good technical skills. He could play RB - he'd be more of a stay at home (think Carlos Bocanegra when he used to play LB for the Nats) - but he could do it.

Actually, he played a perfectly weighted through ball that no one on the field was expecting Shelton to get to except for Chanot and Shelton. Shelton tackled it perfectly across for the tap in.

Sure. Pair him right up with your beloved Shrek.

I guess we'd find out who the true fans are.
