It's a crappy 10th place team with a <10,000 seat stadium. Why wouldn't he want to come here???

That dude is apparently the captain of his club.  Captain types never want to feel like they are letting their teammates down.  Really just think it goes back to that.

Amando Moreno signs for the fire. Think he plays? I'm curious to see if he can step up in MLS.

For sure he plays. He looked good under Petke and good with our USL team, before the injury.

Playing time was so scattered with Tijuana over the next few years, then played on loan at Dorados before coming back last year.

The talent is there, he just needs the right fit. Hoping it works out in Chicago for him.

No more Giovinco in Toronto, Villa in NYCFC, Acosta in DC and Adams here.  The east is going to be a little hard to predict for this year.

atlanta has to be the clear favorite in the east, but i still like our chances.  we're basically the same team, minus tyler, but if the rest of our mids are healthy, we should be ok.

 

we saw how weak we are in other positions (notably left back) - but i think CM/CDM is one where we do have a little depth

The international transfer window is closing, and our only signing is someone who was on our team last year. This, with gaping holes in midfield and still no backup striker. Fun!

RB2 squad?

Didn't expect many or even any signings.  Said that for a while. It's always bring from below.  Tyler is gone but Casseres replaces him.  Rza more of the starter now instead though.  Koffi another addition who's a bit of a wild card.

 

We have a pile of options at RM so I guess the hope is someone emerges.  Personally rooting for Epps or Mines.  Muyl will be the starter game 1 though.  Perfect world we would have spent a decent amount on that position.

 

We've never really had a great option at backup Striker.  We'll see how White does.

Not to mention no more Almiron in Atlanta.  Plus a new coach in Columbus.
