2015 In-season Player Rumors & Movement

A new trialist. Rochester had the best defense in USL last year. He is also 6'4".

Rochester Rhinos left back Onua Thomas Obasi on trial for the Union. Curtin said he had a good first day here.

He looked good in the USOC game - he is indeed very tall.

Didn't they once have the best GK in USL?

We saw how that worked out.

 

Hopefully they gave him #23.

 

all your rhinos are ours............

 

This is generally how I feel about him. It's just the consistency issues, the defending, and the redundancy with Barnetta that make me a little down on him. The assists are great but don't give him a total pass for me. It's a little like MCW posting great numbers for the Sixers while they were the worst team in the league.

 

Talked with Vincent Nogueira today about his future prospects today, said he's hopeful of coming back next year (team option).

Thankfully for us, Nogs appears to have masochistic tendencies.

 

And because of that it makes me think he has more of a chance to sign on than Euro guys who stop by for trials.

 

OMG MacMath had a shutout. bring him back to be the starter

 

it sure would be nice to have a sporting director in place before trialing people....

 

I'm ready for more Zac MacMath Erotic Fanfiction.

 

Rumors are that Kreis is on his way out at NYCFC....I would take him in a heart beat.

 

Where is he from?

 

Zac is love. Zac is life.

 

Kreis = Born in Omaha + Attended Duke = Not Philly Tough

 

What I get into in my own time is none of Big Soccer's business.

 

Aperently we almost got poku. Darn.

 

Well, add that to the ever-growing list of "almost" moments in this franchise's history.

 

And people said the Bimbo connection doesn't work...

 

Was there or is there a fee that needs to be paid for Ayuk? I seem to recall we didn't hold 100% of his rights.

 

That seems to be under debate, apparently.

But at best, f ree, at worst, $200k.
