🚨🚨 If Santi is gone, I have thoughts:
1. Santi going for $17m makes him the 5th highest outgoing transfer in MLS history -- Great business for David Lee.
2. Pascal now has the opportunity to acquire two DP centerpieces to build around.
Good news all around in my eyes.

Starting a wish list here for the open NYCFC head coaching job. Comment below your wish:

Saying the quiet part loud.
I'll just say it: The amount of loyalty CFG has to Cushing is insane. This guy's 37-39-31 across all competitions, has fucked off $30m worth of signings and they've gone from perennial Cup-caliber to "hey they might get lucky and win a round."
I love him b/c he plays homegrowns but my goodness.

Any former red bull player at CiTi Field "covering" the game should be booed on sight. This is a PSA.
