That would be a pretty great signing, he's a current Jamaican international with 10 caps and played in nations league in the fall.

lol, Jack (big Football Manager youtuber that did a series on FCE last year) had signed Alex Marshall, who became a key player. Looks like HFX scouts are watching FM livestreamers for inspiration. But ya, he's one of the higher rated players in the Jamaican Premier League in FM with a lot of pace.

Fits the young international players going through a secret draft info.

I mean, he's also one of the most highly-rated players in the JPL in real life. It's not like a guy with 10 caps for Jamaica is some obscure player you never would have heard of if you didn't play FM, you would also hear about him if you talked to any scout or manager in Jamaica or looked at any recent Jamaican MNT rosters.

I was joking...

The decision to move to Halifax would be a very easy choice, especially if the money was better.  Nothing against Winnipeg, it's just that Halifax really has something special.  Halifax has added some interesting pieces so far.

Also, great that there is free agency and players aren't restricted from signing with other clubs when their deal is up.

Not to mention that LBG, being from Quebec doesn't have any connection to any of the existing teams. Plus there are quite a few Quebecois players on Halifax which I am sure factors in

The moves that have taken place I believe send a message to Hart that he needs to get results in 2020 or he will pay the price.

Of the recent set of departures, the ones I am surprised at are Arnone, Bona, Kourouma, Perea, and Hocine.  Arnone was the supporters' player of the year and looked great after an initial bad patch, Bona was a very competent defender and I think this was just as surprising as Arnone (still remember the headed goal against Ottawa that was controversially disallowed).  Hocine deserved a better fate due to injuries, the season ending home game against Pacific, I thought he looked good, but maybe wages were an issue.

Kourouma had flashes of brilliance, but there were other games he kind of drifted away and I'll always like Perea (the guy was money from the penalty spot) but he was hurt quite a bit and the goal return was low, so I guess I can see where Hart was coming from in that situation.

 

I’m surprised Skublak didn’t resign. Wasn’t he one of your better players?

Not really, he had great hold-up play and a couple of nice goals in the Voyageurs Cup, but couldn't score in the league to save his life. At his age he would've been a decent re-signing, but certainly not as a starter.
