Ian Joy. More like Ian Sad with the way he shot down Pirlo.

I didn't even realize ManU (biting tongue not to make some snarky comment about them) was interested in getting rid of him. I thought LVG was trying to recreate the Dutch nats
I don't want Forlan, I'd love RvP but I doubt he'd come to MLS
They were at odds all season. RvP never recovered his stamina or form after the WC and was repeatedly banged up. The manager kept him out of the lineup even when healthy and in fact had him play several games with the junior team as "rehab games."
Van Persie to Lazio no more a done deal than Pirlo to us. Not suggesting we're likely to get RVP but it's not impossible .
David Accam was signed from Helsingborg in Sweden, where he scored 30 goals on 62 league games. They also signed Kennedy Igboananike from the Swedish club AIK.
Two great signing, especially Accam who had scouts from all over Europe watching him. Some of the clubs where Dortmund, Arsenal and Manchester United. Sure, big clubs like that have scouts all over the world watching players and I don't know if they really made an serious attempt to sign him.
Many here in Sweden where surprised that he went to the MLS, but that really shows how much the leagues reputation has increased.
I rather sign a player with less reputation, like Accam. That is really hungry and knows how to score. Than signing a player like Drogba or Forlán. Sure they will score goals, but they are not the future.
I want a player that can score goals for many seasons to come.

Just going to take a stab in the dark here.
Could the player Ian Joy was referring to be Andre-Pierre Gignac? He was linked last year with a move to us and started following NYCFC on twitter at one point. His contract expires at the end of the month and he's 29. Scored 21 goals in Ligue 1 this season.

Hmmmm, I forgot who mentioned he was waiting to see who would be the coach next season before making a decision. Bielsa might get better offers outside of France.
Not sure how reliable this is (since it's not verified) or how accurate it is. But…

Orlando City owner Flavio Augusto da Silva said Pirlo confirmed he will come to NYC this week in the second half of the season along with Lampard.

I definitely think we should go for a younger(under 30) DP for number 3.
Omar Abdulrahman, for me, would be the perfect 3rd DP.
He's 23 years old attacking midfielder. Can play wide and behind the striker. He's incredibly skillful and can dribble past players, he has good vision and an excellent passing range. He may not put bums on seats at Yankee Stadium, but he'd get bums off seats for those who watch him. Plus he would generate interest in NYCFC and MLS from Asia/UAE (where the Sheikh is from). Also, if MLS do add a 4th DP next season then we can use that on some ageing big name.
Such an exciting player.

What was NYC FC before Zlatan? Practice. #DareToZlatan.
i remember hearing positive things about him during the Asian cup this year and vaguely remember him doing ok, but I think i read somewhere that he signed a lucrative extension in whatever club he was at in UAE. I remember some members of the press were disappointed since he should of test himself in europe even in a smaller euro league.
He can be from Mars. Or even be a she. I don't care if they're good
