    I wouldn't mind a pipline one bit. It has the potential to be very mutually beneficial. I admittedly haven't seen much of Walkes outside of the summer tour and vs. Gillingham in the League Cup, but it is damn hard for any youngster to break into our midfield at the moment. He can play midfield and center back, so has a bit of versatility to his game and is pretty well put together.

    I'm going to try and be there. I have a work thing right now that is hampering that. If anyone needs info on Chatt let me know. If you're staying the night, downtown is the optimal location.

    Adding 2 dudes from Serie A and we literally might have the most talented MLS squad already.

    He is a decent defensive mid although he could be used as a center mid to generate some. He is good on his feet and can make quick decisions. He is not the fastest guy but he can track back and cover. He showed a lot of promise as a youth player, I wanna say he captained a Chile U-20 or U-17 team. He has been at Atalanta in Italy for a while, I haven't kept close tabs on him but I'm pretty sure he played quite a bit. He got a few call ups to the Chilean National Team but with Vidal and Marcelo Diaz ahead of him he hasn't cracked the starting XI for a while. I know he had some injury problems lately but his name is always mentioned when discussing the 23 man squad.

    Carmona was concerned that a move to MLS could affect his status with the Chilean National Team. Pizzi told him to go where he can get regular minutes and not worry about which league it is. U de Chile offering about half what Atlanta is offering.

    MLS is known to have below average defenders. These dudes are going to have space for days.

    Feel like I need to temper my expectations but looking at the East, I see few reasons to do so.

    I'll be going to the game in Chatt next weekend. Excited. My CFC isn't a slouch though. I expect a pretty good game.

    I think we should be able to slide into the playoffs with a nice second half of the season run with Guzan and our new stadium.

    Wish I was going. Traveling the weekend after and just couldn't justify traveling back to back weekends. Love Chattanooga.

    They announced the game will be streaming so glad I can still watch.

    I'm in a similar boat. I'm pretty much gone every week until St Patrick's day for work. So I only have the weekends in Atlanta.
