Thinking that July 29 is a bit too early for me to start the 2019-20 Off Season Roster Speculation thread, eh?
MLS regular season next year will start in late February, Foose confirms. This is consistent with what DCU officials are preparing for; United will probably play on the road for first two weekends, three of first four.— Steven Goff (@SoccerInsider) July 31, 2019

Thomas Chacon of Uruguay will join #MNUFC sometime this coming week in a multiyear deal with a multi-million dollar transfer fee. Details from @JerryZgoda https://t.co/16WgqTJiog— Star Tribune Sports (@StribSports) August 4, 2019 Looks pretty close to official
#MNUFC is expected to announce signing of young Uruguayan attacker Thomas Chacon this week, with @SoccerByIves reporting the transfer fee is $4 million, and he confirms a report from Uruguay that 70 percent of his rights go to the #Loons. A massive, massive move for Minnesota.— Andy Greder (@andygreder) August 5, 2019

Adrian Heath after training today left open possibility @mnufc could make one more move before Friday transfer window closes. "Who knows, another few days and something else might happen."— Jerry Zgoda (@JerryZgoda) August 6, 2019
So, Jerry...did anyone think to ask the HeathMaster if he was referring to Chacon...or somebody else.
Trade rumor: Former #MNUFC forward Christian Ramirez could be on the move for a second straight #MLS transfer window. The word is #LAFC is working to move Ramirez to Houston Dynamo. After he left #Loons last August, Ramirez has six goals, two assists in 1,217 minutes with L.A.— Andy Greder (@andygreder) August 7, 2019
Will Moimbe-Tahrat has completed immigration paperwork in France and might return to #MNUFC as soon as Wednesday, club said. Coach Adrian Heath said, if eligible, he would’ve played vs FC Dallas.Carter Manley — with his game vs. #DTID — seems to be in even more precarious role.— Andy Greder (@andygreder) August 13, 2019
Sadly, I agree. I hate that Manley has always been dropped into these situations, and I think the entire midfield screwed the back line against Dallas, but some of the issues with Manley were still a bit "rookie like."
