@ this point, I think all the theories should be put N practice!!!

Maybe Rojas wasn't happy here. Has anyone heard anything that could be cause for dissatisfaction? I wish him the best.

I said this on BS, but when we say that Rojas left for the T&T WCQ and didn't play at all, it didn't look good.
When Rojas came back and was "ResteD" by the coach against LA, the writing was on the wall.

Too bad, I liked Rojas, but maybe we'll like the skillz of Cabrera even more.

I like the decision to let Rojas go. He didn't have the pace needed to cover the outside flank.

I didn't like the fact that we had 3 Senior International roster spots all going to people relegated to the bench.
Dipsy
Tiger
Marlon

If you are going to burn on International roster spot, the guy should at least be on the field. I understand that it is probably difficult to recruit to an expansion side in the U.S. and so I think the Front Office should be given some leeway.

However, I see us using the 4 spots on other prospects next season, at least I hope so. Cabrera might be one, hopefully he pans out.

At least the Front Office has been making the tough decisions and cutting their losses and trying new things.

I don't think that Tiger counts as a SI. He isn't listed as one on the roster page.

[SoccerPrime]

Tiger is either a Youth International or a Green Card (aka Domestic).

With Rojas gone, Dipsy Selolwane is the only SI on our team.
Hopefully this will change ASAP.

Gustavo has offers in Denmark but wants to play here.

Why wouldn't Tiger be a senior International. ESPN Soccernet says he was born in Trinidad and Tobago and he is over the 25 year old age limit.

I could be wrong but I thought he was a Senior International.

I know the rumors about the Gustavo have been circulating for a while, but it's interesting the Rojas and Suarez get waived with in a day of each other.

What are people's thoughts on bringing in Ryan Suarez to RSL?
