OT: Montreal Impact Thread - Thierry Henry's Magical Hands

[JunglePete]

Having an actual striker would make me feel 100% better about that lineup. I can live with pretty much everyone on it except him.

He's coming, maybe in a week or in two or later this month but they aren't THAT dumb to start the same striker all over. I'd hope.

But yeah confidently can say we can expect a new CF. Who? No clue.

Taider and local boy don't go well at all it's been 2 years already. Enough of that. Taider and Shamit with local guy as backup or in rotation in 442 or 4231 with Bojan at #10. You can't always play a defensive 433 lose and hope someday it'll magically work

A 3 man midfield with 1 DM hasn't worked since the conference finals, at some point you gotta let go, so 2 man Midfield with two CMs or two DMs with a CAM

So we're going in with the same lineup that missed the playoffs last season, minus a few vets. Got it.

But we got Henry he's worth a dozen wins just by his presence and coaching.

I can remember debating with another poster. He claimed Henry will help us recruit players. I expressed my doubts.

Joey Saputo is Marc Bergevin's brother from an Italian father.

I think they just realized the game was coming up in a couple of weeks, starting their recruiting now, hence the rumors

They better not expect him to somehow be a miracle worker. He's still mostly a rookie coach, with very little experience under his belt.

Funny how they all come out this morning

I told y'all, they keep secrets now.

Finally someone puts Nacho in his place. Love the player, but I don't think he ever should've been captain. Give it to Fanni this season.

Officializing it...

That Dirk Carlson guy seems like a straight up Petrasso 2.0

Well, which is it???

My money is on Destouches

 

[Krnage]

with all those rumors.... the guy we might sign is Joel Waterman

 

[Skip Bayless]

Filosa said that there's a clause in Urruti's contract that activates his option year in 2022 if he scores a total of 25 goals during his three seasons ('19, '20, '21). 21 to go.

This is hilarious.

I don't know if it's a good thing that we're linked with 20-21 yo players

Wasn't Renard known in Belgium for getting young players into the squad and then selling them later for a profit? At least we're being linked to players.

Building through... uhhh, not the Academy/draft

That's what I'm hoping for.

Hopefully we can sell enough of them at a big enough profit in the next few years. Then, we'd be able to either sign a big player when the team is ready to compete or take bigger gambles on top youngsters like Atlanta or Los Angeles.

At least we're finally getting rumors now. About damn time.
