yes, voloder needs to go, only reason he's getting so much time is fontas is cooked

meow meow · « **Reply #11051 on:** November 14, 2024, 01:03:44 PM »

welp, guess voloder stays and fontas/castellanos goes. will miss Russell and Tim. kinda of surprised we didn't bring back Remi. pulido is still owed 7.2M, so bad

I'm glad they're changing it to such a degree. I agree that Pulido leaving would be nice but that money is a challenge. Maybe we can work out something with a Liga team if he starts the season strong. Goodbye and good luck to JFR, Melia, and Remi who weren't the problem last year but probably aren't part of the solution either.

Also, Khiry will be here forever

Super sad about Remi

Benny out as coach of SKC II, ouch

meow meow · « **Reply #11056 on:** November 15, 2024, 07:59:39 AM »

khiry should be out after next season, don't know how he would get resigned unless he's just super solid at RB and it's a club friendly deal. people were talking Benny could be in line for a bigger position, someone threw out the Philly job, not sure if any truth or not.

moving Pulido back to Chivas and freeing up a DP makes me happy, hopefully they start making signings soon

ChiComCat · « **Reply #11058 on:** January 08, 2025, 09:36:31 AM »

Yeah, that Pulido move probably needed to happen before they add anybody big. They need bodies at some point. That opener vs Miami in the whatever cup is about a month out and I can't imagine getting much help that'll be ready for that game at this point.

Agada

Salloi Thommy Afrifa

Memo Radoja

Ndembe Fernandez Rosero Davis

Pulskamp

Something like that, Bassong, Vargas, Khiry on the bench (not like PV will sub). Not great!

ChiComCat · « **Reply #11060 on:** January 08, 2025, 09:59:32 AM »

Yeah, it's a collection that I'm mostly glad we kept but I would also like to see more of them coming off the bench.

MakeItRain · « **Reply #11061 on:** January 08, 2025, 01:42:39 PM »

I don't harbor any hope that freeing up that DP spot will lead to anything. They freed up their young money spots too and haven't done anything with those. They only, reportedly, got $1.5 million for Pulido. The off season has seen another owner die and Peter's right hand man either leave or get pushed out. This is a rudderless ship.

meow meow · « **Reply #11062 on:** January 09, 2025, 03:10:19 PM »

only hope is we actually have a new sporting director and honestly 1.5M for pulido is probably good business, his last contract was not

meow meow · « **Reply #11063 on:** March 31, 2025, 10:32:54 AM »

goodbye Peter

cfbandyman · « **Reply #11064 on:** March 31, 2025, 11:06:27 AM »

It needed to happen, was a great run but it's been not a great 4-5 years.

mocat · « **Reply #11065 on:** March 31, 2025, 11:11:34 AM »

PV is gonna get obliterated tonight and do laps around 435, stay safe out there everybody

ChiComCat · « **Reply #11066 on:** March 31, 2025, 11:38:13 AM »

I'm sad to see him go but sad in the way of putting a beloved pet down when you know it's time. They shouldn't have brought him back this season. The roster was too mumped and was never going to be competitive enough for him to keep his job. At least in soccer, you don't necessarily have to wait until the offseason to bring in a new coach.

No they spent a eff ton to reconfigure that attack, only for Peter's tactics and selection to make the money they spent irrelevant.

First team to win a game without a shot in MLS. Historic!

meow meow · « **Reply #11069 on:** May 06, 2025, 10:07:02 AM »

it's hard to begrudge 3 points, but holy crap that was not a fun match to watch. fortunately the weather couldn't have been any better.

MakeItRain · « **Reply #11070 on:** May 06, 2025, 11:23:24 AM »

I feel like we have lost similar matches roughly a billion times the last five years.

meow meow · « **Reply #11071 on:** May 07, 2025, 10:17:49 AM »

probably a few, but 30% possession (which seemed generous) and zero shots is a new level of offensive ineptitude.
