Do we get any sell on money (or allocation or whatever) from Ream's move to Fulham?

Can't imagine so, but that would have been some seriously crafty salesmanship by Soler if we do.

probably have to wait until the off-season now, but I'd look into Luis Gil, Jose Villarreal, and Jack McBean.

 

Also, Qudus Lawal and Christian Bassogog who absolutely torched NYRB II. Bassogog is from the same club as the rest of the Cameroonians.

Gil has been awful this year.

Matias Kranevitter... He's a beast of a CM better than Dax and Felipe...if he plays alongside Dax the team will be better defensively and offensively because than Dad can join the attack more often. And Kranevitter himself distributes very well.

He's going to Atletico Madrid after the club world cup.

Thinking out loud, but Reginal Goreux as a right back, maybe for next season now?

doubt we spend a lot on a RB/LB. it's usually where the least $$ is spent.

Roy Miller would argue that.

Roy Miller would argue that.

inflated payment, when he first started here, was nowhere near 200k.

 

also, league-wide, flank defender is not a "valued" position, why would most MLS teams want to devote a high cap number to that position? it's stupid. look at the eckersley deal last yr, we got him from TFC, we said "fuck you, eat most of his salary or no deal". we were on the hook for ~125k-150k. 

 

Lade's at 65k

Duvall's at 60k

Taxi's at 60k

Wallace's at 60k

Zizzo's at 90k

 

Miller is the exception, not the norm, ya dig? if not, see for yourself.

I dig, but I'm just saying the fact that we're paying him 200k might mean we're willing to spend 200k again.

Its more common than I thought it would be before looking through the full list. Beasley ($750k), Sean Franklin ($202k), Iraola ($200k), AJ DeLaGarza ($200k), Tony Beltran ($195k), Steven Beitashour ($190k), Robbie Rogers ($175k), Chance Myers ($170k), Justin Morrow ($170k)... Not sure if Shea and his $450k still counts as a fullback since I think he's played more as a midfielder lately.

 

But at the same time, looking at the quality of players on that list, are they so much better than a guy like Duvall at $60k? I don't think so, I think the extra $140k can get you more value at another position.

my whole point, why spend all that $$$ on those two positions?
