God damn seems like yesterday that Dax McCarty, a near best XI defensive mid at the time, went for a record setting $400k in GAM. Now that's what you get for a 25-year-old backup striker.

 

Thanks for the 2019 season Brian, good luck in Vancouver

they got pretty good value for him given that hes better playing as a lone striker, and we play with 2.  Hope he does well, hes a good guy and has some talent in right role.

Holding out for more $$$ for Big Tom.  His analytics are way higher than BWhite.

What MLS CB's are for sale in the $400k range?

Good luck. 

 

I'm hoping the GAM is allocated somewhere - (CB? Fabio made permanent?) - and its not just a case of selling when player is valued higher than maybe they should.

Only known player to have a save, a goal, and an assist in a single professional game.

Good trade for all parties, including White.

Making room for Matti Ice.

 

Checking on our depth, I looked at RB2 scoring stats, and our top scorer there is EGBO?!?!?   Ouch.

Quick snapshot of reactions from Vancouver fans tells me that they have a serious midfield service problem. If that's the case, I wonder how much use they'll actually get out of a guy like White who is really only at his best inside the box.

Good trade on our end. I like White, but I'm not sure he has a good place in our team.

Also on the "why dont we sell Barlow" question, there has to be a team willing to pay something of value, and I'm not sure there is one.

If you scan YouTube looking for Bradley Wright-Phillips, youll find numerous goal compilations, a few interviews and, eventually, an excerpt from the grime mixtape series Lord of the Mics.

Plus, he's basically free in terms of cap space.

Then how about you send Royer and that $400k back for Ranko Veselinović
