2020 MLS Cup Champions 2021 Roster Thread

Even I don’t have him on ignore [emoji23]

 

Any plans to watch some PSG this season now that they have Messi?

 

Just turned 27 last week. Without a club in Ligue 2.

Okay, fine. God knows we need a right back But this is a budget signing, a Hail Mary as we try to salvage the season by squeaking into the playoffs. Chris Cadden last year, Steven Moreira this year. Potato/pomme de terre. Wake me when the team realizes fixing this problem will require an outlay of funds.

 

This move also tells me that there is no available MLS Trade Bait on the Columbus roster.

 

You can't trade injured players

 

As much as I love Messi, I think my wife will kill me if I add Ligue 1 to my soccer-watching schedule.

And, before you ask...

NO, I'M NOT GIVING UP USL.

 

It's tough though; its like passing up chances to watch Michael Jordan or Babe Ruth or whomever play. 20 years on, you'll regret not.taking every chance you had to watch the all time icons.of.the sport.

Wives on the other hand.....

 

It's Indy Eleven's year, baybeeeeeeeeee!

 

Yeah, that's fair.

 

Trade window closed when the transfer window closed on August 5th. Only option now is to pick up players who are out of contract

 

Paging Mr Adi. Mr Fanendo Adi. Please pick up the yellow courtesy phone.

 

I could have sworn that teams could make intraleague trades until the roster lock date on 9/15. Oh well.

 

@CybrSlydr or Moreira?

 

You can do what you want with your time.

I refuse to give him any of mine if I can help it.

 

I don't give him any of my time. I just mention him semi weekly and get pats on the back from a handful of other children who do the same.

 

From the same reporter:

Suivi par #Majorque et des clubs de Ligue 1, Steven Moreira devrait s'engager au Columbus Crew (MLS).

L'équipe américaine est également à la recherche d'un milieu axial.

Followed by #Majorque and Ligue 1 clubs, Steven Moreira is expected to commit to the Columbus Crew (MLS).

The U.S. team is also looking for an axial medium.


I'm having a hard time figuring out what an axial medium is, but the guy says the Crew is looking for one.

The comments are the best part; one guy says, in Spanish: "They are eating our talents! Look out for USA-Canada 2026

Another guy, in French: "it is a dream to play in MLS nempeche. you live the good life and your well paid"

To which someone else responds: "Have you ever been to Ohio?"

 

Central midfielder, probably.

https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milieu_de_terrain#Milieu_axial

That's in French, but gives the idea with pictures.

 

It seems to mean midfielder in general:

The axial midfielders move in the center of the field. They can have a defensive role, an offensive role, even a composite role, both defensive and offensive. We can distinguish their role under certain names: defensive midfielder, relay midfielder, attacking midfielder.

 

I'm thinking they are looking for someone to back up or replace Artur. If the French news report is accurate.

 

I believe it's the ligament they need to repair Williams's ankle.

 

If it were up to Williams, he’d probably rather cut his leg off at the knee if it would get him out there on the field faster.

 

Axial Rose is available

 

Axel Foley will put a banana in your tailpipe

 

Perry Kitchen underwent successful back surgery and is expected to be sidelined for approx. 8-12 weeks.#Crew96
