I agree with Ted, but hopefully we are proved wrong.

However, at least with Davino we’ll know early in the season what he will bring to the table so we’ll have plenty of time to start the “Fire Everybody” campaign.

Ted,

Couldn’t have said it better myself.

The Goodson move now seems to be brilliant. So get off the FO and SM on that point.

As for Davino, that’s a lot to pay for a central defender. But do you all remember all the yellow jerseys in the stands for the ‘red and white’ Fire? This guy could be a gold mine for FCD and the league. Let’s hope is play comes close to his marketing value.

This is a good move for FCD.

Goodson wasn’t protected because the FO knew he was going over seas. Good move? I think so. This signing will strengthen the back line (which we need) it will also bring in more of the Mexican population. Worth 400k maybe.

Yeah, But now Goodson isn’t in the country. As much as I hated to see Goodson leave in the draft, it was a smart move since he left MLS anyway.

What a train wreck FCD has become. We couldn’t spend 150K on Goodson the young athletic player now part of the USMNT but spent 400K on the Mexiacn Greg Vanney. If he had anything left he would still be with Club America. He follows in the foot steps of Shaka and Denilson…yes our FO is filled with dopes. When will we hire some soccer personnel professionals.

If that number is correct, I’m issuing a SHAKA signing warning!

IF it’s right… It’s pricey for the caliber of player I believe him to be. But I think FCD/MLS is also paying for what they believe to be a very marketable Mexican star.

Only time will tell I suppose.
