    I might not go so far as "guy we need in net" (that would be Sean Johnson), but I agree with the rest of your post.

    I assumed DC United grabbed Ousted in case Hamid took off for Europe.

  2. It's fair to say Ousted is the best keeper we've had since Sean John. Another tallest midget analogy.

    Can the fire still make additions? I read that the deadline had closed.

    European deadline. They can still sell us players, they just can't buy any.

    Speculation: Barring any notable acquisitions and abnormal rate of injuries, the Fire will challenge their own record for ties in a season.

    We could possibly lead the league in scoring, but the bad thing is we could also lead the league in goals against. I see a lot of 3-3 games this year.

    Fixed your post.

    This IS the Optimism Thread, after all.

    No it's not. This is the Roster Speculation Thread. Have you overdosed on optimism? :)

    Marcel De Jong just released by the Whitecaps.....he's 32yrs old but hey we need fullbacks and since this team is built to win now could be a solid edition.

    I don't think that we can take anymore internationals.

    If only MLS could figure out a way to develop players while giving them a good college education.

    All they have to do is look at how the CHL takes care of kids in junior hockey.

    I'm throwing this out there too.....I wonder why Philipp Wollscheid has been without a club for so long. By all accounts he was a pretty good CB and is 6'3. He hasn't played in almost a year but come on we need more help. Bastian, I hope you aren't doing a D-Rose and not helping recruit to try and bring people here.I honestly had a dream last night that we had signed Hector Moreno and that there was a picture of him signing his contract and was hoping when I woke up this morning I'd find it on twitter....sadly i was mistaken :(

    They had a guest player in the match they played earlier today . He's a German guy who has played in the depths of German football ( of course) . He's currently playing for KFC Uerdingen in 3Liga- he's their captain .
    He was suspended for their most recent game (Feb 2) , so he must of traveled just to trial for today's game . Interesting to note Hasler saw very limited minutes today. Campos started at RB and Kap played there in the second half ( first half CB).

    He I believe was kicked off the team along with another player and then the next day the head coach was fired too.

    Yeah , can't find any in depth info on what happened . The team was near the top of the tables and in the promotion hunt to B2 it seems .
     
    xtomx repped this.
  21. From reading some of Uerdingen message boards it seems the club ground out results and was lucky to be in 4th place with a 0 GD. Not many were sad when he was fired. Nothing to add here on Schorch.

    Yeah , I've been able to find more it appears he was brought in and was close to the sacked manager. Leading up to his dismissal comments about him seem to focus on his severe " lack of speed" and positioning. And why the manager kept playing him .
    But I've also read alot of comments on Instagram about him that is complimentary - stating they've been in the race because if his leadership in the back.
    I don't know

    I am excited/interested to see who we bring in on trial for the next few weeks. Isn't that how we got Goosens a few years ago via trial? Hopefully there are some defenders out there, although i will say since we were out in Europe, I would think we would've wanted them out there right?
