So we added Ream and Pep Biel. Not great but decent transfer window. Should get us to the playoffs.

the game on 8/24 is a massive one with a team we're looking up at in the standings. Great time to go for anyone with any remote interest.  It's time to make a big push, and this is a big one to kick it off.  Hopeful that Ream has plenty left in the tank (and Privett being available to spell him/keep him fresh and learn from him is awesome), and it's sick to have a contributing US MNT player on our roster.

As far as Biel--if he had been the first name we heard we probably would have been fine with it. Instead we spend entire transfer windows lauding fans with what ifs that never materialize. It's exhausting.  But I trust Dean and I hope we can gel and have a nice stretch run here. Hosting a playoff MLS game would be an amazing atmosphere.

Also signed Jamie Paterson.

Thinking the best XI could be:

GK - Kristijan Kahlina

LB - Jere Uronen

LCB - Tim Ream

RCB - Adilson Malanda

RB - Nathan Byrne

CDM - Brandt Bronico

CM - Ashley Westwood

CAM - Pep Biel

LW - Jamie Paterson

ST - Karol Swiderski

RW - Liel Abada

Combination of Agyemang, Vargas, Iuri Tavares, Bender, Diani, Junior Urso, Petkovic, Lindsey, Privett, João Pedro, and Bingham on the bench.

We're clearly losing interest or maybe Panthers talk just takes over.  That was a much needed win over a really bad team.

excellent get right game, just sucks that we put ourselves in position for it to be a must win. I don't love building important roster spots in the stretch run, but if we gel now it's better than the alternative

Good win tonight though a 4-1 win would have been nice for the GD rather than a 4-3 win.

Unfortunately all the teams in front of us won so a home playoff game looks unlikely but if we could get to 6th so that we avoid Miami until the conference finals that would be nice.

Still think we move out of 7th. Also I came crazy close to smashing a massive cltfc parlay tonight.

When in think about it, I hate that the end of the MLS season/decision day and the playoffs are sandwiched right on an international window. Swiderski finally hitting form and he’ll be going away to Poland. Ream playing well at LB and he’s with USMNT…here’s hoping they come out healthy because right now, we’re a force and peaking at the right time

    • Sometimes its fun to read the threads/posts.  The panthers could literally hire a groundskeeper and we'd have a thread "improving the field for no other reason to prop up Bryce Young".  Apparently no move is ever done to actually make the team better.  All a conspiracy to just focus on Bryce Young. Or suddenly daydreaming and reminiscing about Sam Darnold when he was hated more than Bryce Young.  Its really fun to do a message board search about Darnold during that time period.   Or thinking there is just a tree that grows QB, and you can just easily go up and pluck one.   
    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
