I can already feel the like plus 15 plus 15 for MLS roster rules here.

But the, the way that the salary, the budget number is calculated is salary per year.

Plus the transfer fee divided by amortized over time.

Right.

Let's use round numbers, 5 million transfer fee and, and a five-year contract.

That means he can be paid.

about a million, right?

And so that's the argument for how it happens.

But again, they are fair questions to be asking.

Interesting.

general so ricky pooch ah it's heartbreaking man like one of the most talented and joyful players it's beyond his like quality and technical ability it's the way he plays it's how central he is to the galaxy not just their success but like the way that they play and man like before messi arrived i think he or denny bong are my two favorite players to watch in the league and like he's still up there and he is one of the very very best players in the league

Tours ACL in the conference final in 24.

He played another 30 minutes or so on a torn ACL, set up the goal, the game's only goal to get them to MLS Cup.

He's rehabbing all year.

He's supposed to come back by the end of 25.

And he didn't.

Things got delayed.

The Galaxy weren't very good, so they weren't rushing.

And it turns out, same knee.

He needs another surgery this winter.
