Is there any in this rout with authority to treat with me? Or indeed with wit to understand me?
Seeing that list is just a reminder of how much dead weight we have.
Convey, Eckersley, Kimura(even though he's a good guy for locker room) Sene, Armando. Not one of those guys are even in consideration to be starters on a decent team. And the sad part is that nearly all of them were added in the last year.
Special thanks to Oyongo, Peguy, and Sam who I consider bargains.
Yeah, most contracts are actually decent besides the few pine-riders that really stick out.
Convey, Eckersley, Kimura, Sekegaya, arguably Armando and Perrinelle all getting overpaid.
Convey Eck Kimura Sekegaya and one of Perrinelle/Armando should all go during the offseason. Combine that with Henry leaving and there's a lot of room to work with/rope for the team to hang itself with. Convey/Eck/Kimura/Armando are like free money since they never play but we have serious holes at CB, FWD and in the middle of the park.
It's annoying that Petke didn't want to keep Holgerrson around but waste over 200k on Perrinelle and Armando.
Ignoring allocation considerations, half-season contracts, etc.
Convey: 137,500
Eckersley: 255,000
Kimura: 105,000
Armando: 120,000
Perrinelle: 100,008
Sene: 152,145
Total waste: 869,653.
A quarter of our cap space is wasted on crap. Nose jobs and garbage.
- Sam remains the league's best bargain.
- Getting rid of Holgersson was a personal decision and I don't believe for a second it was based on salary. Petke thought he was weak.
- We are so, so lucky we have Oyongo.

Holgersson wanted DP money (putting aside his personality conflict with Petke), and I am guessing Roxy didn't lead him to believe that Armando would be a waste. Or Ecks. Or Convey. Petke doesn't do the scouting.

Robles a bargain too, maybe the biggest. $100k/125k for possibly the team MVP.
Holgersson wanted DP money
No he didn't. He wanted 220-250k.

Holgersson wanted DP money
As Roxburgh indicated, money was the central issue. Holgersson was set to make $250k in the final year of his guaranteed contract. That would put the Red Bulls in a tight spot at season’s end with three well-paid, starting caliber centerbacks on the team — including Ibrahim Sekagya, 33, who brings with him a championship pedigree and the veteran presence New York sought for most of the 2013 season.

Right. Had nothing to do with the multiple reports that Petke thought he was soft. He had 1 year left on his contract, he did not want DP money.
David Villa = $60,000.00
What?
I'm still waiting for somebody to confirm that this is a typo. I know these MLSPU numbers are only a ballpark, but c'mon...

Nevertheless, sources close to Holgersson say he was shocked the team would try to “force him out” of his guaranteed deal at seasons end. The Swedish defender wanted to finish out his time in New York — especially after overcoming so much adversity in the 2013 season to earn his keep. His self-described “finesse” style of play from the centerback position put him at odds with rookie coach Mike Petke who sought a more physical, intimidation-centric style from the heart of his defense. Holgersson adjusted and fought to earn his starting position back, eventually playing the perfect foil to the truck-like defending of Jamison Olave.
“That is the kind of player Markus is,” one sourse said. “Resilient. All class.”
He not only took hold of the starting spot, but managed to adjust his playing style to the liking of Petke in doing so. When called upon, Holgersson, 28, even reverted to his once-natural fullback position when wing-defense options ran thin.
His nimble play and team-first attitude earned him respect in the locker room.
“Even if he wasn’t American, we considered him to be part of our ‘American” core,” one former teammate said.
Petke didn't like Holgersson. Anything else is bad spin.

He wanted DP money, but was willing to settle for $250.
