These players were and are "young" both in age and in experience. And yes, they should have done better last year and should be in the race for the title this year Unnamed Trialist and toontownman 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yes, they should have done better last year and should be in the race for the title this year I liked the model last year, it was bold. Fans even forgave it, understand what they were doing. I hope they build on most of it, especially with the youth. But you need the veterans to be the ones who really give you results, you can't ask teens to be doing that. Last year we had injuries, and then some positional problems, and overreliance on the kids hurt us in too many games. That is not even fair to the young ones, let the veterans carry the weight and the kids develop and shine when they can. Aird25 and ted 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deschamp86 Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 This is probably Pacific's biggest signing of the off season. I think they are one CM away from being a big threat. I can't imagine they have a whole lot of budget space left though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bison44 Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 This is a good move for everyone. Irving needs to play. He is still young (in keeeper years) and really has only had 2 full pro seasons. If he is going to progress it has to be now and he should get every opportunity to shine.

CanadaFan123 Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 Are there any plans to bring in some young players? By my count they have just 2 U21 players whereas they had about half a team starting week in and out last year. Is Haber coming back? Would seem to be a waste.

They kept their young core from last year. They’re just a year older. It’ll be interesting to see what they do when half the team ages out in the same season. What is the cutoff for this year?

They still have a few roster spots open and only need to add one U21 player. I would imagine they would probably add a U21 player from the island Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shorty Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 A couple of the kids I teach are training with PFC's junior group, and they have said that Haber is not training, but that Fisk is. For what it's worth. I wonder if, in Fisk's case, they have committed to re-signing him, but are just waiting to see who else they sign before they commit to a salary number. Otherwise, you would think that he would have signed elsewhere by now. Unnamed Trialist, deschamp86 and ted 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has not picked up a contract in the winter window in Europe, so I was curious why folks are so sure he won't re-sign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
