RSL needs all the help they can get for those exciting ties.
Has Movsisyan said anything complimentary about RSL fans? If he has, I haven't heard it. A few kind words would go a long way towards smoothing things over; helping fans feel better about his move and making his own stay at Rio Tinto a little easier.
Big deal. 17 goals in 81 games is crap. He won't play in Europe so the jokes on him. If Jose Altidore doesn't get playing time in Europe... Yura Movsisyan isn't getting any.
If RSL and MLS paid decent and fair wages to begin with then they would have a right to get upset over this. Movisisyan has a right to make a living at his profession as it is a short career. The truth is RSL is paying him only $70K and I suspect he will make closer to $200K in Denmark. FWIW, he will play in Denmark. It's not Spain. Good luck to him!
you guys shouldn't be negative about him leaving just cause you're mad we don't have him anymore. he is a great player, and playing in europe will probably make him even better.
thanks for everything yura! you will be missed.
The last game I attended was against the worst team in the league and I left at halftime. Few RSL players showed any interest in even being there and Mo was no exception. If our star player is no more inspired than that then I say let him go now and bring in someone who wants to be here who maybe doesn't have so much potential. Potential to make money playing a game and producing little. That game ended in a tie due to an own goal. if not for that we would have lost for the second time to a team with under 4 wins. And this chump is talking about a playoff run. Maybe he should lower his goals to maybe a 2 game winning streak.
Yura is far from our "star player".
The sooner he leaves, the better.
Oh, poor guy, only makes $70,000 a year to play a game and workout everyday. Poor poor guy is only making double what most people make that actually make the community better.
I love soccer, but I don't have pity on anyone that complains they aren't being paid enough in sports. Overpaid, underworked, like USPS.
