Yep. Now, do you go with another CB......or try to find that ever elusive LB? We obviously need both.
Oh, c'mon, Jeff. This is not the end of an era. Trading Christian Ramirez was the end of an era. Trading Francisco Calvo? Not so much.

Looking at Twitter/reddit...and even looking at Jeff, there is quite a bit of animosity/rage against Calvo, and the team.

I think a lot of people really disliked Calvo....to the point of hate. Jeff seemed like he was throwing a bit of shade with this tweet. Lots of smiles on a sunny day at #MNUFC training. pic.twitter.com/p919hK2M6P— Jeff Rueter (@jeffrueter) May 3, 2019

Amos Magee, #MNUFC player personnel leader, on club podcast of what it took to get Romain Metanire deal done with Reims of Ligue 1: “We had to give them a crash course,” Magee said of #MLS’ TAM and GAM, “which wasn’t easy to do it in French, when we barely do it in English.”— Andy Greder (@andygreder) May 9, 2019 lol
Reading has parted with two veteran goalkeepers as their season comes to a close.With some recent cost-cutting decisions at #readingfc, I suspect Vito Mannone could be allowed to join #MNUFC permanently this winter - if the fee is right. https://t.co/FnZbCbq1o2— Jeff Rueter (@jeffrueter) May 10, 2019
GIF: Wondering what Ibson is up to now that he's not playing midfield for #MNUFC? Well, he plays some soccer games with his son. But, um, this one didn't end well. "Are we still good parents ?! LOL."

This says #MNUFC midfielder Rasmus Schüller will report for military duty on October 14. That's one day before a Finland-Armenia Europa qualifier and 5 days before this year's MLS Cup Playoffs kick off. https://t.co/MThIoGYfBo— Jeff Rueter (@jeffrueter) May 15, 2019
Turns out my source meant to say, “Sam Allardyce” and I chose to hear Eric Wynalda. My source is also a Scottish bartender who happened to be very high, on life. Apologies on the confusion. https://t.co/IOlEWvwRnd— Super Rookie (@thesuperrookie) May 19, 2019 Is that really the best we could do...if true? I would fire everyone there, including the owners if that were true.
um...... News: #MNUFC loans attacker Romario Ibarra to Pachuca of Mexico's Liga MX, a source confirms.https://t.co/tdoZPihnli— Andy Greder (@andygreder) May 21, 2019
Let's hope the morning of July 7th brings a couple of deals, because we are awfully, awfully thin right now.
Did he even make it one full year on the team? I know it’s just a loan but still. Bluecat is right we are going way to thin into the summer when you want to start to rotate the team more.
Final story: #MNUFC sporting director Manny Lagos shares details on loan of attacker Romario Ibarra to Pachuca of Mexico's Liga MX. #Loons get part of Ibarra's $546,000 salary off books and clear an international roster spot for potential summer signings.https://t.co/tdoZPihnli— Andy Greder (@andygreder) May 22, 2019 Yep...clearing that salary, and that international spot
Yes. Per the roster page at MLSSoccer.com our five internationals are Boxall, Gregus, Mannone, Metanire and Rodriguez.
https://www.mlssoccer.com/post/2019...prepare-interesting-summer-hope-add-left-back Looks like Left Back is the priority for the summer window, but some interesting additional comments from Manny.
With the Romario loan, we actually have four spots open on the 20-man Senior Roster, plus another two on the six person Reserve Roster.
