OT: IMFC Thread

Team is bonding over being worked like dogs.

LOL @ that ghetto ass park though

Love those vids. Wonder with what type of cameras they do them.

[PhysicX]

Absolutely love it.

Agreed. Great vid

 

[Skip Bayless]

Not a fan of those loans, but Paz is much needed and would be a solid addition.

The part where they throw the fitness coach in the water then all give him a hug makes me smile

Same here. Also liked seeing Piatti put his arms around his bike-mate as they crossed the finish line first (was that Choiniere?). And seeing Donadel after everything just give Duverne a hug. It warms the heart.

The problem is that we also need to consider that we have to bring down players' salary that are coming over as well. We are already doing it with Mancosu

 

[Adam Michaels]

Pretty cool.

It's ok, the more we bump this thread the better. We need that sticky!

Wow wow wow. Paz and Diallo is a legit fortress in front of the goalkeeper. Those 2 will be a FORCE I'm sure of it. I hope that report is legit. We'll be able to find a Paz replacement easily next summer when all the seasons are over.

 

[JunglePete]

Totally non IMFC related but Mix Diskerud (yes the former NYCFC Cm that was average) has joined Man City in the weirdest transfer of all time. I think I need a few hours for my brain to process this news. Just what the hell

 

[Skip Bayless]

4.5 years

Wat

Edit:

Diskerud, a member of the New York City squad since they entered Major League Soccer in 2015, is now surplus to requirements with the American franchise.
Press Association Sport understands Manchester City have offered to take over his registration and allow him to use facilities at the City Football Academy to train while he looks for a new club. This is a way of thanking him for his service to the City Football Group and he will not be working with Pep Guardiola’s first-team squad.
Diskerud had a loan spell at Gothenburg last year.

 

[JunglePete]

why sign him for 4 years then?
Something is off

As for Paz I really hope it's just a few months loan (till like July-August) right before Serie A to cover for Fisher and so he doesn't lose motivation to play here=not give his best. We have more than enough CBs already and that's another International spot and considering how we're lacking upfront it's probably a waste.

Loan for Paz makes sense -- Bring him for 6 months, then let him have a full pre-season with Bologna. By the time he leaves, Fisher should be back. Good for both parties.

 

[boyinboyin]

Wow

 

[Adam Michaels]

The good news keeps coming.

 

[JunglePete]

He's Boldor's direct replacement.

 

[Paul Dipietro]

2 things bug me about the Paz news

1. What is his motivation level going to be (sure he's a pro, but look at Ballou)?

2. What is it going to do for chemistry on the back line when he ends up leaving?

That's why I hope he's used as backup behind Diallo and Cabrera (if they play well enough) like Boldor would if he were still here. Paz potentially leaving mid-season could ruin the chemistry at the back line if he played a vast majority of games. I really hope it isn't a season-long loan, that could ruin his spell here and a waste of an international spot.

I don't get why they just didn't go for Bobby Boswell or Brad Evans. Reliable backups way past their primes, MLS veterans, cheap. There are way too many newcomers in this squad and that's never good.
