RSL Roster question

SoccerPrime · 02-17-2006, 06:53 AM

I know a few Reservists were upgraded to the Senior team after the season ended.
It had to be 3 of the following:

Nikolas Besagno -GA
Jamie Watson -GA
Jay Nolly
Cameron Knowles -Youth Int'l
Kenny Cutler
Kevin Novak

I don't think RSL will do it for protected players like Besagno and Watson or for a Int'l like Knowles.
I believe Nolly, Cutler and Novak are the ones that have been upgraded to Senior roster contracts? Is that correct?

It was only two players. Jay Nolly and Kenny Cutler
Here is the press release

Thanks Deuce.

Yes, thanks Eric, I couldn't find it any where.

So which 10 are we gonna cut? We have to cut one international player (betting that one is Scarlett) but I am confused who is not included in those eligible to be cut....like the adidas players. Can anyone tell me? I have a feeling this is going to happen, or start happening in the next couple of days.

Thanks

In a recent article Coach Ellinger was said to have the dubious honor of having to trim some of the roster by this weekend.

So I am sure we will see some of those cuts starting tomorrow.

If I had to speculate on the SI it would be a toss up between Scarlett and Walsh.
I have never seen walsh play so I don't know how he is working in a unit. I can't truly comment on Walsh.

What I saw in Scarlett; He has great bursts of speed but that is negated by his predictability. He is way too limited in his choice of plays. Like if he had two it would double his play choices.
Scarlett has more of a singular style, not really condusive to team play. And his crosses need work, alot of work.

So judging from what I have seen from Scarlett, unless Diego Walsh lives up to his nickname, given him by KC fans, then I see Scarlett getting the axe!

For starters I'm guessing Tarley, Lookinland, Flores & Jake Besagno will get the ax. And probably Luke.

I would really hate to see Scarlett go.

I don't see Tarley or Flores going anywhere, but your other choices have merit. Please tell us how you chose these.

Well...tell me this...who is safe...either because they are on the reserve roster or are adidas players or whatever ways they have to be safe. LOL and what about Tiger????? Think he is still safe???? (biting nails)

Deuce · 02-17-2006, 10:30 AM

I don't know who is safe and not safe. I am speculating, based on what I have seen on the field.

I believe Tarley will be given a chance to prove that he can play in a squad without Mathis. If he can't make a good case he will be gone.

Tiger is a good d-mid and if he stays in shape this season I think he will be around. He is also a fan favorite. Unless he screws up i don't see him getting cut!
