I don’t know about Petrasso. The Impact have loaned him to the Ottawa Fury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackjack15 Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 Akindele should sign with the Colorado Rapids, they need goals desperately and it guarantees Tesho playing time! He grew up just outside of Denver in Thornton and rejected to join their academy at 17 to focus in school before going to School Overall sounds like a perfect fit, I still think he has the level to continue playing in MLS Obinna 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keegan Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 That’s a tough squad to breakthrough but he’s an MLS level player. Surprised they’re letting Reid go as well without a proper look. Tesho to Cavalary? That would be a great signing for the league. Guys around the Tesho, Ricketts, Jackson, Haber level are attainable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackdude Posted November 26, 2018 Share Posted November 26, 2018 It's also mentioned in the article that Dallas is still negotiating with him. So, at best he would go in Re-entry draft. San Jose and Orlando would have the option to pick up before Colorado. I think that he'll stay in MLS unless a CPL team really pays him a lot of money.

toontownman Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 Tesho is such a strange one. He has a good eye for goal, isn't slow or overly pacey but has the physical attributes you would expect for him to be a great target man but isn't. he looks best as a support playing deeper. Generally there are better suited players to the position he looks best at. Where ever he goes I hope it's to start and get more consistent games. CPL would of course be a step down but big for the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the CPL budget in the "north of seven figures" total - ie around a million - I can't see the CPL being a viable option. Outside of sports, I am not sure many people would be happy to take a 60-plus percent pay cut, and I can't see it happening here either. Nor can I see a team paying one (non-household name) player 15 percent of their budget. toontownman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He might also be looking at the reality that the league has improved so much, over just his time alone, that he has gone from an impact MLS player to a bubble player. Add in his age and the fact that he already chose engineering over soccer, and I wonder how much longer he'll postpone the next stage of his professional life.

apbsmith Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 Great news, he should have his fair share of opportunities. Glad he is getting a run with another MLS team, here is hoping to a strong 2019 for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn't agree more and I'm glad he is going to be given another opportunity in MLS. "In total, Akindele scored 24 goals and eight assists over 133 appearances (67 starts) with FC Dallas". Nothing outstanding but not awful either, though he didn't really see the field much this season( only 577 minutes). Wishing him the best and hoping he establishes himself with consistent minutes.

Ngravs Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 Nice start for Tesho with a game tying goal. Great use of his speed to find himself unmarked for an easy tap in. dyslexic nam, johnyb, apbsmith and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obinna Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 Good to see him get on the scoresheet early in the season. Hope he is not injured. He will get more minutes in Orlando and could have his highest scoring season. Would it be enough to make the GC squad? We’ll have to see.... Either way, competition for places is just what we want. Well done Tesho! apbsmith and baulderdash77 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baulderdash77 Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 There’s always going to be a place for Tesho I think. As a late game substitute attacking against tired defenders he is an excellent option for us. Tesho is a really good player. A few short years ago we thought Tesho and Larin were the future attacking options for us. He’s still a good player. toontownman, nolando, Obinna and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toontownman Posted March 4, 2019 Share Posted March 4, 2019 He is. He just isn't a natural no.9 or quite 10 either and both his versatility and attributes have cost him a main starter berth as much as kept him a useful squad member. The right coach could be the making of the man though. He is useful already for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shway Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 (edited) Got a brace today, one off a nice Will Johnson assist. 4 goals in 9 games. He'll definitely be on the 40 man roster. The 23 is getting tougher to pick spots 19-23. Edited May 20, 2019 by Shway Fixed Blackjack15, apbsmith, Obinna and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
