He's baaaaack! Apparently. The buzz around Toronto's television media is that Julian De Guzman is
once again in the Toronto FC picture. According to some sources a contract has been agreed to but
the sticking point is how TFC makes room in the algebra-like MLS salary cap. Scarborough's own
would demand DP money and The Reds would have some hard choices to make.
This one has been floating around the old internetting machine for a few weeks but it has started
to gather some steam overseas. Sources claim (why can't sauces ever claim instead?) that
Toronto FC is about to sign 23 year old left-back Lesley Fellinga from Dutch Eredivisie outfit SC
Heerenveen on a free (of course) transfer.
Hope you like Joe Louis' cakes, St. Hubert Chicken, Pepsi and cigarettes because it looks like "The
401 Derby" is on the horizon! Speaking to financial media outlet Forbes, MLS supremo Don
Garber said that Montreal should have the 19th spot in the league by the 2011 season.
No matter what your feelings are about Montreal, Quebec, The Impact, Charles De Gaulle, mimes, body
hair.
Maybe part of Mo Johnston's rumoured contract extension includes a Eurail Pass because all of a
sudden TFC is being linked with Central European based players. As reported in THE WORD
last week, European press are claiming that The Reds are close to signing Haitian defender Lesley
Fellinga, last of Holland's SV Heereveen (Gone Tomorrow) and that the player is on trial in TFC's
secret bunker.
A surprising bit of rumour is making the rounds in the Sunday morning papers that could possibly
have some legs. Reports are linking the recently departed Chivas USA manager Preki to the vacancy
on the Toronto FC bench.
The merit that this rumour has is that Preki, or Predrag Radosavljevic for our Serbian readers, was
a long time teammate of Mo Johnston's at KC Wizards.
