Hi Fellow Fans!! MLSSoccer had this article--short interview with Backe. http://www.mlssoccer.com/news/article/2012/07/11/red-bulls-talks-third-designated-player Among the things the article says that they are in talks with their 3rd DP candidate, they want to get a 3rd striker, and Amarikwa is ready to debut for the Red Bulls senior team and will be called up from the reserves.
Sounds like we'll have this new kid as a striker option starting next weekend. Add DP# to that and we'll have solid depth when all is healthy. -------Henry-Cooper---- Lindpere-DP3-Richards ---------McCarty-------- Pearce-Conde-Marquez-Barklage With Holgersson Solli Amarikwa Ballouchy Vuolo Lade Miller as a bench and Keel Ruthven Arteaga Maduro Borrajo as reserves
Amerikwa has some speed and definitely has some talent. Good option off the bench. And better than the forward options we have now - nothing.
If we have the CAM and the Striker, we can divide them like this: As a First Team:...............................................................Bench..........Meara..........................................................................................VuoloBarka, Marquez, Conde, Pearce......................Lade, Holgersson,KeelRichards, McCarty, New Cam, Lindpere........................Solli, (*****)Henry......Cooper/new Striker............................Cooper/New Striker[/b][color] (*****) If they don't pick any other Midfielder, have to use one of: Palsson, Tainio, Miller or Ballouchy, for my taste, I will like to see all this four in they way out.......But as a Fixed Salary Players (First Team + Bench) we only have 13 + Palsson, Tainio, Miller and Ballouchy for a total of 17, if they waive more than one, we will be short for the 16 minimum Fix Salary Players Roster...... So who you thing will go first.....My Guess is Tainio..... For reserve we have just Barrajo, Maduro, Angulo and Arteaga. ....Hertzog is in his way out.....
