So, a few more days.
We are good enough to beat the best teams, and bad enough to lose to the worst teams.

Why would we sign any MLS retreads off the free agent wire? We'd be far better spending a few hundred thousand in transfer fee for some 19 year old right back from Zambia. And if we really want the next stroud then I'm sure someone on rb2 is younger and a better prospect.

Given our team's strong preference to sign young unproven talent with high ceilings that we can "mold" into the red bull way

i think stroud could start on this team. in rb2, he tore USL apart and when he was with us in MLS Back he could of had amazing stats if Barlow had any finishing ability. the work he put in to set him was really good. the kid is a workhorse.
as for signing unproven talent, we can but we need them to go to rb2 first. that team currently has a talent deficiency. guys like asad, stroud, or alvarado are place holders until rb2 can develop someone to replace them. they are not meant to be the stars of the team. we will need a competent bench this year since it will be a compact season. having said that, we still need a difference maker on the offensive side of the ball that should be acquired through the DP route. lets see how this plays out.

The fact that stroud can start on this team is a harsh reflection on the current state of our roster. We need less strouds and muyls and Barlows if we're ever going to compete for an MLS cup

Stroud would not start for our team. Ability aside, he's a wide player that doesn't fit our system.

Every team can use role specialists, when there is a salary cap with limited DPs.

Stroud started 13 games for a shit Austin team. Let's move on.

guess whose option was declined
Contract options declined (Dec. 1, 2021):
- Eric Dick (GK)
- Waylon Francis (DEF) - eligible for free agency
- Erik Hurtado (FWD)
- Saad Abdul-Salaam (DEF) - eligible for free agency
- Vito Wormgoor (DEF)
- Bradley Wright-Phillips (FWD) - eligible for free agency
Eric Hurtado please ;-)
Bradley Wright-Phillips "I prefer it at Red Bull Arena, but it was OK. I could imagine it being good for a baseball crowd.

I'm hoping BWP retires. It was painful watching his brother get beat up when he went to Phoenix in the USL.guess whose option was declined

My guess is that he is living on how he did in 2020 and looking for a team to take a chance on him.

Yeah I think he should take NYRB up on the coaching job offer if still out there.

Wow, Swagudelo's career really went to the shitter. I would say sad, but it's likely his own making.
