Their asking price was prob more than what RBNY was willing to offer. Also there's a connection with Casseres per an article on the team website, iirc.

yeah this appears to be a free transfer so its a no brainer if you think hes a good prospect.  Theres a limited investment here.  isnt really related to the other business we need to do.

If this is true, I immediately jump into the outraged camp. But I have not seen a number quoted?

No reported transfer fee. $2-3 million was the price for Clark to Leipzig

Ya figure he'll end up being the 2nd striker, CAM or LW? Not much tape of him out there.

Maybe RM? Struber likes playing left on right.... Without seeing him I have no idea though. 

 

something like this?

Yearwood's TM page says he's played CM more than anywhere else. For the 13 games he played for us, he played along side the CDM in the 4-2-3-1, right? Would he be as effective if it was just him shielding the backline?

I don't think so, but I'm at a loss for who might fit that hole.

Was kinda hoping that Carmona could be, at the outset, a spark off the bench. But understand that he may not have enough experience to do so.

Its all guesswork but the apprehension with doing that is that hes never played a professional match in Venezuela. Think theyd be smart to let him get his feet under him with RB2, unless he completely wows them.

Based on Struber's comment on Carmona, it does not seem like he thinks Carmona will be contributing to the first team any time soon.
