Would love him!!! But I think he is out of our league.

During the winter transfer window it was revealed that he has been advised not to come here (MLS) under any circumstances.
Where though? Haven't seen anything.
Is it safe to assume that we are almost above cap, out of INT spots, and that our transfer window is pretty much closed?
If so, I think that overall we did a good job, better than anyone else in MLS. Pirlo, Iraola, Angelino, Mena (still a question mark). Our weakest area (defense) became our strength. Our second weakest (midfield) should become one of the best in the league. We could still use another striker.
I guess that if we are done for the year, we did well on paper, and just need some actual positive results.

Is Orlando still in the running for Chicharito AND Ganso?
I thought the Chicharito deal was dead.

Isn't angelino? First team minutes are what helps and our league is better than most lower tier leagues in Europe

I thought Angelino (unlike Facey) is highly rated in Manchester? He's looked great so far so not sure what you mean by "the best we'll do" ? Anyone know anything about this David Faupala they recently signed? French teenage striker was with Lens.

Id be stoked if we get a half outa pirlo. Also, hope mena is ready to go by sunday. We need some defense up in here
Mena has already had a preseason with Independiente Medellín so he should be good to go. I also would be happy with a half from Pirlo.

Seems Kreis & Reyna wanted to go with this Colombian striker instead but Ferran Soriano vetoed it in favor of Pirlo. He says it's asinine to say we don't need Pirlo but points out the lack of communication between NYC and Manchester

Doesn't seem like he's too expensive. They probably could have had him with allocation money and or TAM money. I might be in the minority and think that Pirlo and Lampard will play well together.
