I think once a player turns 23 there is no longer compensation required.

A new thread for twitter type updates is warranted.

Can someone please correct the young man's name in the title?

Ali Curtis in South America for a scouting trip. Bill Manning and Jason Hernandez meet with a super agent in Italy (Giovinco's agent) to scout 3 matches. https://torontosun.com/sports/soccer/mls/toronto-fc/toronto-fcs-search-for-more-quality-players-lands-front-office-bigwigs-in-italy

If you watch frame to frame you actually see his arm snap back from the force of the ball. There's a reason the VAR called it a PK.

Looks clear to me. Pause it on the second replay (1:28/1:29) and you'll see it hits his forearm near his elbow.

That's a PK all day long. It went off the middle of his arm, somewhere around his elbow and his arm is extended out like a dumbass. No excuse.

I don't believe those figures. He played most of one season at Cottbus at striker and had at least 10 league goals at one point. That said, he started and ended his club and international careers at CB and aside from that season at Cottbus i don't recall him playing much up top. For Canada he may have moved up late in the game a few times when we were looking for goals, but i can't recall him getting a start (though he might have, there was no way to see all our friendlies back then).

In the link it says he's a '98 and plays as a striker (if it wasn't obvious from him scoring a hat trick).

"Gerges was the starting keeper for Metro Ford that season, but was forced to miss the nationals due to being called up for a Canadian U18 training camp in Guatemala." Good news. Also, sounds like he's a '95, can anyone confirm?

If we were blocking another team from getting a quality player through this mechanism the league would probably step in and mediate a settlement. The deal would have got done one way or another.

We got that spot for Nick Hagglund. I don't think we can expect much more just to swap the top allocation spots.

I assume Gonzalez didn't want to come to Toronto or we want someone else. So we're getting a 1st rounder to let LA get this player and now we are back at the top of the order, sounds like a good deal to me.

I believe the saying is....

I thought Zanatta was a Forward?
