OT: IMFC Thread

[Adam Michaels]

I'm all for Nguyen. Make it happen.

 

[ArtPeur]

Nguyen is domestic so that makes him very valuable and it will please the Vietnamese community



Would he be DP?

They got the Italians, the South Americans, now they will bring in the Algerians, work on bringing in the Vietnamese. Find a Greek player to draw in more Greeks and you can have one diverse and loud stadium.

They're working on a lot of technical stuff (passing, body positioning ect.), possession drills. Flachez is taking the time to individually interact with certain players about very specific things they have to prioritize. Love seeing this, the training staff is trying to make most of what little they have.

If Meram cost 1m, Nguyen will cost way more than that. I don't think we have what would be required, or the need for Nguyen on this team. Sure it would be a good addition, but there are other holes we need to fill more urgently.

With that being said, Lee is one hell of a baller. I'd be delighted if we got him after addressing more urgent needs (I.e Central Defender); but if we have to chose CB vs Nguyen, I think we should prioritize a defender.

For those with time to kill -

Lovely feature, great story of determination.

I think we need both badly, but the priority, now that Fisher is ded, should be a CB like you said. Ngouyén would solidify the middle and we'd be a playoff team on paper IMO. If it's not him, then I have no problem waiting for the summer window if it means we get the right player.

 

[Vachon23]

Can he play #10

Can he play #10

He's one of the best #10 in the MLS

 

[Vachon23]

Make the trade happen then !

Who are # 89, 92 and 93?

 

[ArtPeur]

Who are #16, 24, 89, 92 and 93?

93 is Academy's Daniel Kinumbe (fullback),
92 should be another Academy, Clément Bahiya
Daniel Kinumbe
Clément Bayiha
16 is Vargas
89 is Ken Krolicki (3rd round 2018)
24 is probably Petrasso

I believe you can notice Choinière's brother on the picture with Oduro (Choinière is in the back with #34?)

Yea, 24 is Petrasso.

In it to Nugyen It

Finally, we can forget that Paz guy. Hopefully they'll go for a domestic player for depth D instead and keep that intl spot for something worthwhile.

Lingouyén watch

This is so dumb.
I guess they want Nguyen to leave the league rather than let him play for another MLS team.

Lee for the Nguyen!

 

[Paul Dipietro]

What about a striker though? Sure I'd be nice to have another big mobile CB to play next to Diallo, and Nguyen at 10 would be sweet, but are they really planning to start the season with Mancosu and AJH?

My guess is they are banking on Mancosu regaining his 2016 form where he was stellar in the regular season and awesome in the Playoffs.

Personally I think he will end up somewhere in between. The quality in the MLS is getting better and better and he has struggled outside of the Serie B

If Mancosu can go back to the scorer he was when he first joined IMFC and AJH at least continues the way he was going last year, I think they'll be fine. But those are still "IF's."

I think if someone like Nguyen comes in along with a Piatti and the potential a Vargas has, IMFC can be in real good shape. Again, IF.

In retrospect, keeping Wandrille around as a depth guy/ jabroni late game minute player might have been a good idea. We're still a bit thin on defense. I can live with a Diallo and Cabrera tandem to start the year while Fisher gets healthy.

Specially if TMG is injured too.

I like how in the end of the soccer-tennis game, Diallo cheats and then acts like he didn't know what he did wrong.

It's only cheating if you're getting caught

I think we'll really like Diallo, to be honest.

Next Saturday is IMFC's first pre-season game against USL's Last Vegas Lights. I hope there will be a stream of it.

This is my latest lineup for this season
