AND I hope Gloster's good enough that RB gets the full 400k

I'd rather he be bad and RB never sees the 400k than have him help City win.

Wasnt Grella a not so young 28 when he played his first game for us and, arguably, wasnt he here to retire?

Grella had an extended time off Between europe and rbny. I remember him trialing for petke but didnt impress. When, marsch took over, alot of the big salary players and vets left the team. Grella was given a chance and had a cheap salary. Even at 28, I still think grella was an unproven player due to history of injuries in england but he atleast played some meaningful games unlike gloster.

Gloster should of signed as a hgp years ago but his ego got in the way. Will this motivate him to get better? Or is this a sign that he has been hyped up and isnt that good.

Was he hyped up or did his own ego hype him up?

No idea how true/accurate it is, but the impression I get from the article is that the attitude isn't just from a few years ago.


The article quotes him right when he joined PSV off saying he wants to play in Europe and maybe MLS at the end of his career.

He may have overestimated his abilities or underestimated the challenge of playing in Europe, but he doesnt say anything like MLS sucks, screw Red Bull or whatever.

Now on loan to Sac Republic

Chris Gloster's rights for $100k plus up to $300k more if he meets certain incentives...he's now on loan to Sacramento Republic.

Dantouma Toure's rights for $50k plus more based on certain incentives and a sell on fee to Colorado Rapids... he's now on loan to Colorado Springs Switchbacks.

Aziel Jackson's rights for a third round draft pick in the 2022 SuperDraft to Minnesota United. Zero MLS appearances thus far.

Thus far we have won these trades.

Chris Gloster's quote from 5 months ago regarding MLS:
"I would like that, but preferably when Im close to retirement as a football player."
Enjoy the USL, Chris!

Chris Gloster - 4 games, 1 start, 69 minutes
Dantouma Yaya Toure - 1 game, 0 starts, 3 minutes
Aziel Jackson - 0 games, 0 starts, 0 minutes

All 3 were loaned out and none did particularly well at the USL level.

Total of the 3: 5 games, 1 start, 72 minutes less than one combined match between the 3.

All 3 are still young, but wouldn't be surprised to see all three out of MLS next year.

Toure is very young, so who knows. But Gloster failed in Europe, and now this?

At least none resorted to desperate measures to increase their playing time!

Any relation to Amadou?

We are good enough to beat the best teams, and bad enough to lose to the worst teams.
