How much better of a 4th CB can you get though? He'd have to be at the right price, but I think he's the kind of guy you get to be your 4th CB.

Yeah as a 4th CB you're asking a guy to stay ready and come in for a spot start or a few minutes of the bench when needed. A guy with the experience of Hernandez would lead you to believe he can do that kind of job. He's in the twilight of his career but we wouldn't be asking him to play starter minutes this season.

4th CB shouldn't get more than a dozen starts. He's an upgrade from Ouimette, but would cost near double the salary.

We also have Ndam and apparently Murillo can play CB as well.

Exactly, I'd rather give the minutes to a kid who can learn from his mistakes instead of a geezer on a downward spiral.

I think we'd only chase Kevin Bacon as a BWP replacement, or if Gudbrandsen leaves this summer.

 

I suspect we'd have to trade up in the allocation to get him. More likely he signs with like LAFC.

Pretty sure LAFC is going to use the DP spots on well known players so likely aging Europeans

Hmm. Interesting that he would change his mind. Weeks ago he was intent on keeping Werder Bremen  out of the relegation zone.


Fuck the right wing.

Minnesota will be needing help and being an Icelander Johannsen shouldn't mind the weather there.

LAFC definately goes big name.  Chicarito or Ibra though ESPN? reported Galaxy put in a bid for Ibra this week.  


Bradley Wright-Phillips "I prefer it at Red Bull Arena, but it was OK. I could imagine it being good for a baseball crowd.

Can't help them much if they won't play him :) Also by the summer, relegation would be figured out one way or the other.

That's 1/3 but yea that would be an amazing signing. Remember when we were rumored to be pursuing him?

He'd cost some sort of money so probably not us. Any other players on RB salzburg or leipzig that cant crack the rotation perhaps? I havent been following either team.

Carlos Carbonero

 

Has played for Sampdoria, River Plate and world cup with Colombia.

 

Can play on either wing and even CM though he's best on the right. Young mid 20s and is out of contract. Wouldn't cost DO money but surely an upgrade over Veron. A Veron size deal would be a pay raise for him. Realistic target with very probable return on investment.


I just want Metro to win a title sometime in my lifetime.
