    As of right now, we have three players rumored to join the Fire on transfers. Instead of predicting which one you THINK may get signed, vote for the player you would like to get signed.

    Keep in mind whether the player plays a position of need, and whether the player will follow the Fire tradition of mentoring the young players.

    We need a midfield captain type player that can fit the mold of Piotr. "Kinky" seems to be the man who could do that.

    What I want to know is, who bugged Peter Nowak's phone to find out all this info. I have to say, it definitely looks like he's enjoying his new role, and is turning up some intriguing possibilities.

    My problem with all the rumors is that all of a sudden our board looks like the Metros board, where every rumored player is surely headed their way.

    I always got a laugh when looking at their threads. That's what its been like over here this week.

    And oh, put me down for "Kinky."

    Damn, if only we knew that Seaman was available. Surely he could have been headed our way!

    I voted Gazza... heard he was looking for a team after leaving his Chinese team.
     
  10. I know they're all talented players, but if I can't pronounce their names, how am I supposed to vote for them?

    How serious are these guys as prospects, by the way?

    Well, from what Bergin said most recently, the Fire laid the groundwork with Kindladze, and the league has given them the go-ahead to make an offer. Although there's apparently another player on Derby County who is pushing for them to hang on to him as part of his own negotiations.

    That said, it's high time for a lot of Europeans to make MLS claims as part of bargaining across the pond.
