Raheem Sterling supposedly not doing well with Chelsea right now and may look to exit. Saudi league not appealing to him. MLS is something he would consider. Contract with Chelsea til 2027 but if things don't improve, could he be tempted by an early switch?
 
If Raheem Sterling leaves Chelsea, both MLS and Saudi Arabia could be an option - AS USA

I would love this signing.

But my big hope is Radamel Falcao García.

His contract is up to in June. He's said he doesn't want to play in Colombia. I think Metro can swoop in and sign him. He'd be the striker we haven't had in NY since BWP

I hate that Metro are always behind on signing young talent that's overlooked... It happened with a guy like Cucho and now he's a champ..I hope he does well.. I think it's imperative to poach central America and South America and smaller euro leagues for 22 years old players that are having success before the big euro leagues swoop in

Would not be a bad idea. Even as a scout.


It would be a dream to work for the club that I love but I doubt it pays a liveable wage lol

JPA's son, Tomas, linked? There was some rumors of a MLS/RBNY connection for a while, but more around LAFC when JPA was there post playing career.

I posted about him in another thread.. I think he was underutilized at Atlético Nacional.. When subbed into matches he scored clutch goals and then they've changed managers 3 times in less than a calender year and each one tried different starters and forgot about him....


He's very much a poacher... He'd do well in the MLS


#1440755 2023 Jersey is "different"

Posted by MiLo4891 on 25 December 2023 - 09:14 PM

Fanatics has a big after-XMas sale on a bunch of stuff, including the black jersey:

(There is a $3 handling fee that comes with "FREE" shipping. What bullshit!)


IMO best Metro kit ever!!!!! I hope they keep wearing it next year too

Dario Benedetto.
 
Apparently 5 MLS teams are interested in signing him, allegedly RBNY is one of them. I, despite liking Boca, wouldn't be receptive of him being acquired by RBNY.


He's a upgrade over Vanzier...

I personally hope they go for a old River Plate alum, Radamel Falcao García... I think he'd be willing to leave in the summer... Or if the money is big enough he'd leave January.... Him and Forsberg up front with Forsberg dropping into the midfield to make it a 4231 at times.. Sounds great..


#1440409 Reyes Contract Extension

Posted by MiLo4891 on 17 December 2023 - 10:24 AM

Colombia ended up winning 2-3.  I don't think this was the full Mexican team.

It wasn't the full Colombia team. More like the C squad they didn't even bothering calling guys that are on the bench during qualifiers...

I was just hoping Reyes didn't get hurt because despite his frequent mistakes for Metro he is better than the guys NY had to use when he didn't play

He wasnt the most talented player on Olympiacos?  He had to be on his team in Qatar, right?

https://www.dailymai...-rise-fall.html

who's team? The anglophone media around the sport are very English biased. They feel England are the best at the sport and have the best league and best style of play.

He was hurt a lot in Qatar and Olympiacos... They went with younger guys..

Metro have gone with younger guys thinking the system will solve everything.. The same things you bring up with James where what was said about Cucho Hernández... I'd rather have Cucho than Barlow or Elias or Vanzier..

James would be a huge upgrade and do very well in the MLS. He has the talent and skill to score a dozen goals here and have even more assists than that. More importantly he'd be clutch in the playoffs

Hertha are one of the biggest cluster fuck clubs in Europe at this point

There's a Philly washout named Faris Moumbagna who's scored 15 goals in Norway this season: https://www.transfer.../spieler/599663
 
Louicius Don Deedson, a Haitian-American, has 6 in 10 for Odense in Denmark: https://www.transfer...s/0?saison=2023
 
21-year-old Alexander Lind leads the Danish league with 10 goals in 14 for Silkeborg: https://www.transfer.../spieler/514895
 
6'4" former Serbian U19 striker Bojan Radulovic is this season's top scorer in Finland with 15 goals in 19 games: https://www.transfer.../spieler/516407
 
Another former Serbian U19 striker, Borisav Burmaz, has 7 in 13 for Serbia's 5th-placed team: https://www.transfer.../spieler/574658
 
Sebastian Nanasi has 11 goals and 7 assists as an attacking mid for Malmo in Sweden: https://www.transfer.../spieler/579928

I'd take Bojan Radulovic in a heart beat..

Or take Mauricio Cassierra..

Gabigol....

Jesse Lingard...

Jarlan Barrera...

Reyes has been horrible


#1437812 Metro - Charlotte Playoff Thread

Posted by MiLo4891 on 23 October 2023 - 10:41 PM

Sounds like a good recipe for a loss.

Ideally I'd like for Metro to route Charlotte...

But as long as they win.. However they do it I don't care...

I didn't expect this team to make the playoffs.. I didn't they they had the talent and weren't playing well enough.. But the last few weeks they've been putting together solid matches and I'm hoping they can do it again


#1437250 2024 Roster Changes - not too early

Posted by MiLo4891 on 10 October 2023 - 09:32 PM

A lot of the starters from last week should be kept.. I see them as depth players and role players because this side easily needs 6 new starters 2 at Center Foward. Luquinhas is a CAM but imo can be pushed to the bench.. This side desperately needs CMs with more football IQ and better technique. Wingers that can affect the game on a weekly basis are also a must....

Trying to give Schneider a hand:
 
Alexander Aravena - Special Talent | 2023 - YouTube

 
Highlights dont show a lot against the ball, but he looks like he could press. 21yo Barlow replacement? 
 
Contract expiring soon...  


I'm sold.. I'd start him over anyone Metro have right now... He's been used more as a LW but this side needs so much help.. I'd start him at LW.. 11 goals and 4 assists..
