So what does our starting 11 look like?...
----------Defoe --- Gilberto-------- -------------Bradley -------------- --------Dero --------Osario-------- ---------------Laba -------------- Morgan ---Caldwell --- Henry --- Hall- --------------Bendik---------------
Not sure i've got everyone in their right side/positon (especially in the back), but by MLS standards, that actually looks kind of scary.

You'll probably have to take Laba out of the mix.

Sad to see Ecks go, but I'm curious what happens now that he is traded away. Word is we are picking up a majority of his salary but won't be counting against the cap? Does Elmer get used for the buyout? Either way, final moves seem to be falling into place.
Biggest question remains Laba. Let's hope MLS makes up a new rule for us to keep him.

Sounds like either a intra league loan or a loan to the Championship from what i'm hearing.
