Rheo Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 It's a case of he said/he said. Orlando refuses to acknowledge that they would let Larin go after the last year whereas the Larin camp says they were led to believe that. Rollins had an interesting point on Twitter though, if it was an American player was top ten in goals over the last three year, underpaid with no talk at all about a pay raise would he be called a traitor for forcing a move to Europe. Larin's done enough to not be totally innocent in this but it is fair. Kadenge 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least if MLS had arbitration and Restricted free agency but it doesn't and it looks really bad for a league to treat a homegrown rookie who's the best they had like that. Looks poorly actually. I wouldn't take it and keep smilling. I'd be furious and wouldn't show up for camp either. They signed Dom Dwyer for many time his salary AFTER Larin already demonstrated to be a very productive scorer, above Dwyer. I'd say F' hem.

I actually agree the fuckery here mostly lies with OCSC but do see some validity to their comments about him being unprofessional and of poor character.

Unnamed Trialist Posted February 6, 2018 Share Posted February 6, 2018 So what are they saying about Will Johnson's character? Or does that only matter when the person is no longer part of your clan? Lesson to all players: careful with Orlando they'll slag you when you're gone. Or maybe they're just a young club who don't know better, yet.

PhillyCanuck Posted February 7, 2018 Share Posted February 7, 2018 1 hour ago, dsqpr said: I do not think Larin has done anything wrong with respect to the transfer. According to earlier posts, unilateral club options are not recognized by FIFA and rightly so: there is no way it can be legal for the club to be committed to the player for 3 years while the player is committed to the club for 5 years!! That is total bull$hit. And that is precisely why MLS did not test it in court, as they surely would have done if they had a leg to stand on. So Larin was a free agent and acted accordingly. Fair enough. The unilateral club options in MLS are definitely bullshit. If Larin didn't produce during his 3 years in Orlando the club would have no problem kicking him to the curb and declining the option years. But it's "unacceptable behaviour" when the player looks out for his best interests. Lofty 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, what exactly are you trying to say about him, in plain English that does not include profanity, or was your whole point of saying that just to throw a gratuitous insult his way? that he has a history of being a troublemaker and unprofessional outside of this event. i used "bit of a dipshit" because it's a funny way of saying someone one can take issue with Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The difference in Larin's farewell statement to Orlando FC and their fans with that of Orlando City FC speaks volumes. You don't air your dirty laundry in public. Larin showed a lot of class by taking the high road. Unnamed Trialist, Lofty, johnyb and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the comments made by Kreis were pretty rich. Regarding Larin, the one thing I wonder about is how well his "compete level" will rise in this more challenging environment? He's coming in with a level of expectation placed upon him through this transfer so that's see how he handles it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
