Agreed, especially in the context of Padraig's and Fran's really poor record when it comes to scouting outside MLS.

Looks like Braian Galvan is heading back to Argentina to Atlético Banfield.Report has the Colorado Rapids loaning Galvan for a year with an option to buy at the end#Rapids96 https://t.co/fe8fWvHCDe— DNVR Rapids (@DNVR_Rapids) February 2, 2024
I hope this isn't too harsh, but I will not miss Galvan. What are the implications of this move for salary and international spot availability?
OFF THE JUMP!!! Rapids setting the tone early with a goal by Darren Yapi, assisted by Cole Bassett 🤩2’ | 1-0 | #Rapids96— Colorado Rapids (@ColoradoRapids) February 2, 2024
GOAL!! Calvin Harris notches his third goal in two games to double the lead against Atlante FC. 6’ | 2-0 | #Rapids96— Colorado Rapids (@ColoradoRapids) February 2, 2024
The goal you’ve been waiting for - NAVAGOOOOL!! Lewis returns the favor to assist Navarro and extend the Rapids’ lead. 64’ | 4-0 | #Rapids96— Colorado Rapids (@ColoradoRapids) February 2, 2024
Feels like the knee injuries really did Galvan in. I'm not mad we're moving on but I'm disappointed because I always felt he had the potential to be one of those eternally-pesky wingers we see throughout the league. On the bright side, it looks like that first scrimmage in Mexico was a blip.. I'm slowly starting to feel optimism about this year. I'm not convinced that we solved the issues with the 6 and 9 but I'm willing to give Diack and Navarro time to settle in.

“Cries in Sam Vines” Exact nature of the paperwork error at the heart of Blackburn’s Duncan McGuire deal,The club thought they clicked “submit paperwork” before the deadline, but they only clicked “save”. When they realized it wasn’t submitted, the window had already shuthttps://t.co/S5fgFWX7YR— Tom Bogert (@tombogert) February 6, 2024 If y’all haven’t heard the saga that’s been going on with the Duncan McGuire saga, it’s been a ride! Wonder if the clerical error that hurt Sam Vines was also a misclick and they clicked submit instead of save Sucks for all parties involved for sure.

The leaked new home kit was pretty meh (not bad, not good, just a standard home kit) but I'd love to get my hands on this GK kit with classic Rapids color vibes:🏔️ @ColoradoRapids pic.twitter.com/UrQcmyPuZr— Zack Steffen (@zacksteffen_) February 11, 2024
