Do you have any idea how insane that is? We were supposed to be competing for the DFL Cup, not a wild card spot.

I do think at some point Conroy's hand is going to be forced one way or another. Either add some talent or really be serious about lighting the match.

But...can you, in good conscience, light that match when you look at what this group is doing?
We have pieces but they need help from going from a team that will be Detroit or take a large step and contend for a cup yearly. It’s not simple and your window is short.

So how does he get those pieces ? Elite talent isn’t just available and when they are it will cost you the same players you want to build around.

Young players will replace the vets anyways, so you need to keep moving guys out creating spots and getting assets back.

You just can’t win in this league without a #1C. We tried it before with Sutter and bombed. That’s the situation he faces.
