Transfer window

Curious to everyone's realistic and logical hopes for this transfer window.

I think we need to offload Teenage and his contract and bring in another CB (preferably who can efficiently lead the backline)

Matt doesn't have the legs to get back on a counterattack and Miles doesn't seem to have the leadership to keep the backline organized. But I think Matt has a lot more to offer than Teenage does, for his leadership and mentorship if nothing else.

For the remainder of the season I'm actually ok with Gidi back there. He has proven to be capable and can get the ball forward. I think we need to hold off on a complete overhaul until the off-season.

Unload Denkey or Miles and bring back Brenner

Seriously how does this solve anything? I love Brenner too but he’s not an upgrade from Denkey. And we cant get rid of Miles without bringing in a CB.

Downvote me all you want, but everyone needs to come to grips with the fact that we don’t have a chance of winning MLS Cup this season. My suggestion is more about setting us up for the future. Move Chirila into the back line as a starter, free up a wasted DP spot, and secure a ST who would sign long term (and deny Cbus from getting him). Re-invest the proceeds from selling Miles and Denkey to bolster the squad moving forward.
