The Real Marc Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 In terms of level of play and career progression, I think this move makes sense. Can PL grads aren’t tearing it up outside the league just yet. The step up to MLS is probably significant and this is a foot in the door. Low risk for both clubs. Like when an upper tier club snaps up a lower tier talent and they start that player off in the reserves or B squad.

Shway Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 3 hours ago, Ozzie_the_parrot said: The issue might be having only 8 international roster spots on the senior roster but their Next Pro team now having space for 7 more imports could be a place to park players that are viewed as a bit of a project rather than someone who can contribute straight away while they potentially sort a green card: https://www.dirtysouthsoccer.com/2018/3/1/17066212/mls-green-cards-immigration-process There’s no way he’s considered an international. His first and only professional club was in Canada. (if he is, this is another point to “taking control of our future”) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzie_the_parrot Posted January 16, 2022 Share Posted January 16, 2022 We'll see what happens but my understanding is that only applies to homegrown players that sign their first pro contract with an MLS franchise or its USL affiliate and that the player has to have been in an MLS academy or a CSA approved youth club when aged 16. https://mlsmultiplex.com/2016/12/02/changes-coming-domestic-status-canadians-mls/ MM3/MM2/MM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VinceA Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 If anyone is wondering why Columbus haven't announced his signing to Crew 2 yet apparently all the MLS teams were told to not announce any signings (same with Dallas and Pa Modou Kah) because roster rules haven't been finalized.

Shway Posted April 18, 2022 Share Posted April 18, 2022 (edited) Was MotM with his two assist over the weekend in the MLS Reserve League. He was a problem the entire game in these highlights.https://www.mlsnextpro.com/competitions/mls-next-pro/2022/matches/clbvsorl-04-15-2022/ Edited April 18, 2022 by Shway king1010, toontownman, narduch and 14 others 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stryker911 Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 Thought I would bump this thread. Along with Rowe he has been crushing it with Columbus 2. Had another assist last night and is now at 5 for the season. Fresh Prince of MTL, Approve My Account Pls, toontownman and 12 others 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How was it a gamble?? How can you get a better audition for the coach than playing and training in front of him every day with the farm team?? Perfect spot to move up to the big club. From the start he was one of the guys who looked too good for this league and now he has made the jump. Maybe the next young CPL standout wont have to have to take the farm club route and can jump right to an american MLS club. Shway 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InglewoodJack Posted July 22, 2022 Share Posted July 22, 2022 Well done. I didn’t realize he’s from Montreal. It looks like he played for my neighbourhood youth club growing up, that’s super cool. Obinna, Dominic94 and costarg 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the next young CPL standout wont have to have to take the farm club route and can jump right to an american MLS club. He left first team minutes with Cavalry to pursue that opportunity, so it was a gamble in the general sense, since joining the reserves didn't him guarantee a first team chance. That said, it was hardly a gamble for Farsi specifically because of how good he is. Like you say, he very much stood out in the CPL, so it's no surprised he proved his worth and earned the first team contract, if that makes sense... king1010, Approve My Account Pls, johnyb and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cblake Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 Remember when a lot of us thought he was nut for signing with a reserve team over staying in CPL? it is becoming obvious that MLS Next Pro is a clear path ... solsous, toontownman and Mango 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
