So these are the available guys now? Bold for starters in 5-4-1. Only way to have Tarek Royer Muyl and Sims on the field, but I worry about Casseres and Kaku being the only CMs. 

(3): Robles Meara Louro

 

(9): Taxi Long Parker Tarek Murillo Nealis Duncan Lade Buckmaster

 

(11): Royer Kaku Muyl Sims Casseres Rza Davis Omir Beze Koffi Mines

 

(3): BWP White Barlow

[The Sound of] Silence.

 

 

Funnily enough, yesterday old school NYCFirm/ESC 96 guys "The Danarchist" and "Cubbies" was reminiscing about the above song and the artists, and this Sound of Silence is getting real old these past transfer windows, outside of Kaku's acquisition.

Less than 100hrs before roster deadline. They screwed up the transfer window, let's see how they can butcher this one.

We loaned out Epps and Etienne Jr and waived Ivan. Put Valot on season ending injury which means we still pay him, just gives us roster flexibility. Given he stated he was close to coming back and had obtained his green card, have to think a move was in the works for that spot.

Currently, we have two open senior roster spots (Epps loan being one of then) and one supplemental roster spot. One international spot and still havent designated Koffi as a season-long loan to NYRBII even though there are four players in front of him at DM. As a reminder, we got a whopping $50k for Rodriguez at our disposal.

If I'm Hamlett:
* Sign Jared Stroud to the Supplemental spot (or Reserve spot and move White to Supplemental spot). Why? If Royer goes down, who is our left wing?

* Sign Chris Duvall. Why? Buckmaster is not the answer to a struggling Murillo. Duncan and Lade are also not getting us wins.

* Sign an experienced out of contract striker. Why? BWP's age has caught up to him, White is in a walking boot, Barlow is WAY too raw, and Jorgensen has looked bad in the USL. Most of his goals there are sure things and he misses far more sure things than he makes. We need someone with experience and dont need to look within the US given the open roster spot.

* Designate Koffi on season-long USL loan. Why? Since Mines already played a MLS game this season he can't receive the designation. Koffi has looked good, but he is behind CCJ, Davis, Rza, and Bezecourt for a spot there. This will open another reserve spot. Lock down John Tolkin with an HGP contract.


What will likely happen? Nothing. They wont find someone that "fits the system".

Without any hint of sarcasm, can you email this to Hamlett?

My favorite thing so far this season is remembering how clueless morons (and you are definitely not among those numbers) went after Greg and Mikey V (God rest his soul) for #RedBullOut and seeing so many of them now realizing that the soda people are full of crap and that they were both 100% right.
Let's Go Buffalo!!!

Less than 48hrs to roster compliance and we sit with an open international spot, 2 open senior roster spots and a supplemental spot.

Marcus Epps loan gave us money and we got $50k in GAM from LAFC. Not signing at least Jared Stroud is a miss. Hell, at this point sign Stroud, Loebe (INTL) and Lema/Zajec off the USL team if you cant get Tolkin to sign an HGP deal.

Not doing anything means we sat on locked funds that will expire and if Royer goes down, good luck on the left wing.

It's really sad that our highest hope is Jared Stroud.

What a joke. If Hamlett needs Austrias help to make moves internationally thats one thing. But to not even be able to juggle MLS/USL correctly???

Pathetic.
