A minimum of 4 to comply with the rules. There's no maximum excepting of course for what Wilmington are willing to take. I'd say at present we'll send four and that'll be it.

By taking Dunn in the dispersal draft, Jason Kreis signaled that he had a vision for him. If he is someone who he believes can be a part of this team for the next few years, he will not get sent down this year. The first few months of this season are critical for Kreis' program, and he will want Dunn around.
We disagree here. He might have seen that Dunn can be a contributor here. Doesn't mean that he will be a contributor on day one. Apart from an offseason to work hard, Dunn is essentially the guy that had barely broken through with Chivas. The same Chivas that doesn't exist. If we're relying on him big time, that doesn't bode well for us.

I disagree, it's only a third round pick. They saw his athleticism and took a shot. 3rd rounders historically haven't had a ton of success in the MLS. It's much different in the NFL draft. If he grows into a good keeper great if not it was worth a pick just on the potential alone.
It seems very clear from that interview that they see Shelton and Brandt as making an impact sooner rather than later for the 1st team.
Interesting that both are 22, and that would be considered old for a young player in Europe.

Kreis clearly stated in all his post-draft interviews that Shelton was raw and needed molding but had a ton of upside. You don't say that about a starter. You say that about a guy you might send out on loan or maybe, maybe ride the bench. I would prefer he does the "Dom Dwyer" and tears up USL Pro this year on loan and comes back hungry and steals a DP's spot.

Sounds like Kreis and Claudio on different pages. Where did Reyna say this?
Still "late impact" sounds like code for bench warmer at best.
I watch all the NYCFC videos on MLStv on AppleTV.

Yes, yes, yes, and no.... he doesn't need to be taking up a precious DP spot hahaKreis clearly stated in all his post-draft interviews that Shelton was raw and needed molding but had a ton of upside.

I am not saying he will be a starter, but from Reyna's interview it sounded as if he will be part of the NYC squad and not be going to Wilmington.

Well this will be done in the non-stupid Sporting KC way. Shelton comes back, replaces a DP who is then IMMEDIATELY released and a new DP for a different position is brought in. Sporting KC let DP Beiler rot on the bench all year, ALL YEAR, as a DP while the guy making 50k or whatever and played in USL the year before replaced him. Stoopid.
