    I am starting to wonder if Teran will bring much money due to his very obvious injury history. Too bad because when healthy I think he is already good and with a lot of potential to be very good.

    Agree with all of this.
    That's exactly why I said, if a team is offering $2,000,000 take it.

    In some ways, it seems like a strange time to sell him. Of course, if the price offered is high enough or if the player really pressing to leave or if club really needs money, these factors can influence the decision.

    Zinck posted pics on his IG today that shows him flying first class to somewhere...

    This is the timing for international buyers, or next summer.
    Based on our budget/resource discussions, GGG needs to do something to be able to make meaningful additions...so it makes sense to me.

    Per GGG in today's presser....Cupps has a fracture in his leg...return timing is TBD

    WTF! Snake-bit again. Makes the Teran situation even more complicated.

    Ok so we have some info regarding Cupps.
    What about Zinck- sure hope he has not suffered an attack of Muelleritis.

    Don't know, but it looked like a personal trip...like a wedding or something.

    Given recent history, a one match absence due to a wedding would be a wonderful, if slightly surprising, outcome. I am holding my breath.

    Latest MIR97 article says Zinck’s absence was pre-arranged and agreed to when they signed him. (However, their projected lineup for the next match has Cupps at CB.)

    This game miss by Zinck is untimely. He’s been our best player and the Fire are on a roll; however we have only beaten bottom half teams (Orlando, Atlanta, and New England) and a USLC team in this run. The real test starts tomorrow and the next month.

    From viewing Zinck’s IG account it looks like he’s getting married this weekend…logical that he would have that prearranged.

    Don’t think we have any updates on D’avilla (out not for injury) or Kouame(picked up a ding)

    And we don’t know if Cuypers is full speed or not.

    I think Rogers is still out, so that means Gonzo will start at CB.

    Tomorrow could look like
    ………………Barlow
    …Bamba……………..MHS
    …….Guti………..Oregel
    …………….Pineda
    Gutman..Elliot..Gonz…Dean
    ………….……..Brady

    I wonder if D’Avilla is having trouble adjusting to all the new things.
    Will be hard for Kouame to contribute if he is not available to play. Will be hard to justify a purchase at end of loan if he does not contribute.

    Kinda depressing to see another double digit list (10, including Zinck) of Fire players on the Player Availability report.

    Nah, pretty sure Junior is on the way for DAvilla. Good excuse. But honestly he may need a fresh start after what Ive seen. On the flip side, don’t think he’s married so he’s already smarter than Zinck (off the pitch)!

    I just mean, "Seriously? Did we just lose ANOTHER center back to injury???"

    YES
