BearcatSA Posted December 6, 2020 Share Posted December 6, 2020 Getting a good winger on the left to join Cavallini and Dajome would be a huge plus for the attack. Hopefully he becomes a Blanco of Portland type of player🤞 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he still had too many options in in England so it really didn't make sense for him. It might still make more sense for him to stay there now, but it would be more realisitic for the Whitecaps to at least enquire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toontownman Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 Think Jnr. Is on record wanting to end up at TFC isnt he? He certainly has a good relationship with the club from training there periodically in the past. Arfield and Hutch to Vancouver were two rumors thrown out over the past year or two. The Schuster quotes worry me. They need at least one new striker, attacking mid, at least one winger, 1st choice right back and maybe another CM and CB.

Arfield isn't leaving Rangers on the brink of their first title in a decade. Hutch still seems to be going strong in Turkey, and that's a case where I could see the BC turf being an issue. Agreed on what's need. Well, if this rumour is true and pans out, that's the winger taken care of. I think the attacking mid is the most critical piece by far, everything else is secondary.

They fired the dickhead when his actions were first brought up. That's really all they had the authority to do.

toontownman Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 No, it stinks imo. I'm not under any misconceptions or suggesting a football club is in fact a constituted law enforcement body. They do however have a duty of care and should have reported it to the police or in the least supporter their players better. The Whitecaps and the CSA could and should have done more. A retroactive Whitecaps funded inquiry, coming after they were publicly pressured, that doesn't even involve the lawyer they hired to investigate the allegations that holds key information isn't good enough, it's lip service but not to those that matter. My opinion. Right, now I am off to the Roughriders to contest my speeding ticket. Charlatans. SthMelbRed 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watchmen Posted December 14, 2020 Author Share Posted December 14, 2020 Whitecaps sell Evan Bush to Columbus for $125k of GAM. But also retain some of his salary. I wonder what the net profit/loss on that is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toontownman Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Mixed on this one. I quite wanted Hasal to go on loan next year to get games. Don't really want his development being stunted by not playing. However, Bush is an expensive bench warmer when Max is back. Also possible they bring another cheap backup in but seems unlikely after letting Bush and Meredith go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Meredith comes back or they find a cheap backup but they will play Hasal. toontownman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably want 3 within reach though rather than a possible recall for Hasal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be, not sure it makes sense to have your 19 and 21 year old goalies on the bench though... like at that point use Carducci as a backup ?

SpursFlu Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 (edited) Reports in both Brazil and England that Caps are in for 20 yr old Flamengo forward Lincoln. Considered a highly rated prospect. Huddersfield town also interested https://www.google.ca/amp/s/colunadofla.com/2020/12/alem-do-huddersfield-clube-canadense-monitora-situacao-de-lincoln/amp/%3ffbclid=IwAR2G3R_rDnvW22bHUTBvD5WkKc9FOFNh-9JW89bOC5GuDQS_D5ydpN5_6cQ Edited December 26, 2020 by SpursFlu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watchmen Posted December 28, 2020 Author Share Posted December 28, 2020 No idea if they'll be able to land either Lincoln, Caicedo, or both, but this is the type of player they should have been going after all along. Young players you go after early, develop, and move on for a profit. If only they'd listened to Robinson when he wanted to buy Diego Rossi. toontownman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
