Re: Ex-Player/Manager Watch
So with our set pieces thus far improved by Mark Jackson, my curiousity was piqued. As I was a kid when he played and distracted by the glamourous players like Yeboah, etc, I don’t remember much of him. Was he quite good on set pieces?

Re: 2022 - 2023 Transfer Rumours and Squad Discussions
From my vantage, Pulisic and Aaronson are both better on the wing. Neither is a natural no. 10 and I don't believe we have one at the club at the moment. Not the end of the world as we've managed without, and I believe there are higher priorities than Pulisic. At this point, I think I'm okay with si...

Go in for Paxten Aaronson now. Came through the same academy and will be equipped for high energy football. Imo, more talented with the ball. Contributing at the MLS level earlier as well.

Re: Loan Player Watch
Only caught the second half. Charlie didn't play and Shacks was subbed on pretty late and didn't really get an opportunity to influence proceedings. Norwich CF looked a bit like Bamford

Harkes played in the PL before the MLS was formed, his spell there came after his time with Derby. Gil only came to MLS after Villa, he was in Spain before that

Re: 2022 - 2023 Transfer Rumours and Squad Discussions
awost1 - do you recall which former MLS players went directly to the Prem? The only one I can think of is Almiron - best player in the MLS, merely okay in the PL. That said, the Bundesliga tax is significant because of the perceived near equality of the PL and the Bundesliga leading to transfer fees...

Re: 2022 - 2023 Transfer Rumours and Squad Discussions
Sorry mate, but there's a reason that no player you mentioned went directly from the MLS to the Prem. Are you aware of the Bundesliga tax? I shudder to think what the "MLS tax" might be on these players. Awost1 - Fair play. I should have considered that but didn't. Another Northern Soul -...

Re: 2022 - 2023 Transfer Rumours and Squad Discussions
As an avid fan of the MLS, I'm not sure what to think of the connection with Leeds. The league is growing rapidly and the quality has improved dramatically, but I'm uncertain as to how well a recruitment strategy comprised primarily of his former charges and players from his most familiar league (an...

Re: 2022 - 2023 Transfer Rumours and Squad Discussions
Kai Wagner would be a solid stop gap. He plays in a high tempo, somewhat narrow system currently and has flourished, including productive service from the wing. He would be cheap, and while I doubt he is the long-term solution he'd be a better fit than Struijk, would eliminate the need to throw an 1...
