I mean, the roster isn't finalized yet, so complaining about who's signed is premature. I'll wait until opening game before doing that.
Also people have to realize that this league will always see the best players move on. This league doesn't pay the players that well, and growth in that regard is going to be slow while they get the number of people paying for tickets that they do.
Yao was not under contract with Cavalry, he was loaned out in order to get minutes. Pepple only signed with Cavalry because they would allow him to trial with Forest Green Rovers while playing. Farsi took a risk to sign with an MLS reserve club and it paid off massively. At least for the latter two they wouldn't have had a pro career were it not for Cavalry. That's something to be celebrated IMO.
Now, I think that selling your best players in the middle of the season sends a poor message to supporters if you aren't replacing them. And last year they didn't replace Pepple or Loturi and the end result was another knock out at the hands of Forge.
