Post publishing, I actually got an apology call from RSL Communications who said that Sabo did need to be protected. They apologized for providing the incorrect information.

as stated above by Tpage, Sabo is protected. For what it is worth, I think Real needs to protect the younger guys such as Paulo, Warner, and Schuler, guys with younger legs and smaller contracts. I doubt Montreal would want to spend one of 10 picks on anyone over 32 on a building team. Honestly, I think i would like to see Grabavoy go, so that it could open a spot for Luis Gil in the starting XI. Real has a plethera of good talent that I doubt Montreal would want to risk a pick on, even though they may have alot of upside (looking at you Y. Alvarez, Agorsor, and Arnoux) Of all the guys listed, maybe the only potential possibility of someone leaving might be Alexandre, but that all depends in what direction Montreal would like to take their team in.

protect everyone on that list, but not Wingert. replace him with schuler. And keep Williams, he creates an identity for RSL. Even if he is not as fast as he used to be, we wouldn't have been as good as we were this past season without him.

Actually DP's are not automatically protected from the expansion draft :

Designated players are NOT automatically protected (i.e., clubs must choose whether to protect such players and if such player is not protected, he will be available for selection in the Expansion Draft). However, if the Designated Player has a no-trade clause in his contract, then his MLS club must protect him and he will count as one of the 11 players who may be protected.

The main 3 player that should be be protected on that list are Paulo Jr. Ned Grabavoy, and Chris Schuler. Russel and williams are older and will not get taken. Collin warner im ok to live with out. I think the number one is Shuler. He did well in absence of Borlave. He WILL get taken if we do not protect him. Now the other 2. I think that Paulo will get taken and I think we have a good chance of keeping Grabavoy if we do not protect him. I dont want to lose either one.
I think we protect Paulo and Schuler and cross our finger for Grabavoy.

Comment on Javi's Back But We Don't Look Good by francesco

what is agrivating is in the last 7 matches we have seen RSL more focused on taking shots on their opponents instead of just trying to attack as a team and play beautiful soccer. have they lost their confidence to be able to break down the opposition? is there a problem in the dressing room? blaming the ref is always going to be an excuse in MLS, by now we are all aware of that but kyle put us in a big hole when he retaliated. i only hope they learn from this and that kyle doesn't garner further match suspensions.

Man, McKenzie, Wagner and Alvarez were horrifically bad and Alexander and Warner were pretty poor, too. How about we make sure to play Olave, Borchars or Schuler NO MATTER WHAT?

so when we get lucky and win off of something lucky we "create our own luck through hard work." but when we lose like we did saturday we're just "unlucky." i love our team and our boys, but i'm disappointed by the lack of responsibility claimed by the squad. also we flat out missed easy shots that should have been goals – that isn't unlucky, that's poor form.
