Of course, there would be some negotiating but MCFC has more power here.
I believe Kries would have the final choice. He had been over in Manchester for some time and will be coming back for pre-season. I am sure if any players are going to NYC then his input will be the one that counts.
You don't loan players to sit on the bench. You always loan a player with a hope of regular starting time. With NCYFC and MCFC, that's going to be more an expectation because of the relationship.
Well I only see that happening if they are good enough.
The first thing that everyone will want is a successful team. You only get that by allowing a manager to manage as he see's fit. If players are loaned to NYC it will have to be a minimum of a season, so that they can get used to the new surroundings. With this in mind it will have to be players who are a little older.
We don't have a lot of players over 20 int he EDS and those who are, have already been loaned out for the season as far as I am aware.
As I said before I would plump for Hiwula and Facey as I feel they may be able to adapt better than some of the younger ones.
Sure, but I think that's why you bring in Kreis. Kreis will only want players good enough to be able to play in MLS and he's got the experience to know if they are. The relationship between the clubs means Kreis can be honest about who can and can't cut it.
I'd be on board with that draft even with the Cahill pick. Sure, he may have crapped out last year with the Red Bulls, but he most likely would still be head and shoulders better than anyone else available at that spot.
I view it as a no harm no foul selection. What's the worse than can happen, he goes back to Australia? Maybe he was pissed off at losing his minutes last season and getting the chance to start over with Villa and Lampard will be just what the doctor ordered.
Either way I'd take the flier and pick him at that spot if he was available.

Decent article. Throws in Cahill and Johnson, I don't see either team picking them up. I think we shoot higher than either one with DP 3. would really like Mullins . A lot of old guys on there. I don;t see us going particularly old in the draft

For those who think we're not going to take all of our 10 picks, I'm pretty sure I read something earlier saying that the club intended to take some players just for the ability to trade them on later, so I'm pretty sure all ten will be used.
Yeah, not sure where I read it, but Reyna said they plan to use all 10 picks, keep 5 or 6, and use the others for trade bait.
Here's a link to the mock draft just posted on mlssoccer.com: http://www.mlssoccer.com/news/artic...ll-orlando-city-and-new-york-city-fc-pick-wed
A.J. Soares is going to Europe: https://twitter.com/JimmyConrad/status/542063515583152129
Mullins is a more likely early pick from NE.
my thoughts.... I didn't dare pretend to know Orlando's thought process so use this as a template

Decent defender, a little hot headed. Was a SuperDraft pick by Kreis in Salt Lake, so a very likely pick. He got better once he left RSL (wasn't getting time behind Olave and Borchers).
I can see NYC going after him tomorrow.
