Asad was on their announced list of under-contract players for 2020, so I assume it's binding. I believe have 19 of 30 roster slots filled as of 12/16/2019. GK: Hamid, Seitz D: Birnbaum, Brillant, Fisher, Mora, Odoi-Atsem, Pines MF: Arriola, Asad, Boetang, Canouse, Durkin (inactive, on loan), Martins, Moreno, Nyeman, Segura, Yow F: Kamara And we are in negotiations with Rodriguez, Wild and Edwards, which would take us to 22, if they all re-signed. Am I missing anyone?
This sound very bad to me. Preseason starts in, what, a month? Were we that low last year ir other precious years. How about relative to other mls teams?
It seems like the FO always waits until the last minute to finalize international deals. Presumably to save as much coin as possible.
It was bound to happen. Everyone passes you when you aren't moving forward. Wether we are idling or going in reverse is up for discussion. James
Here's a quote from a post I made on Dec 31 of last year: "Holy crap. Preseason starts in 3 weeks and our gameday 18 includes a cancer patient, three goalkeepers and two guys who are in the midst of renegotiation... and we have, what, 8-9 guys who are a threat to be called up for NT duty? I know there's a lot going on that we don't see. But if you're going to give 1/2 the roster the old heave-ho, shouldn't you have a plan that includes signing more than two players before the end of the year? "

They may play in more places but they are also more entertaining, talented, tactically sound, and fun to (hate) watch. James
Looks like LAFC is signing all of the South American U23 National team players they can. Apparently JP Angel is their scout. Do we have a scout?
