GK Competition Just Heated Up...
Reports are that Andrew Weber (formerly of, and inexplicably waived by, San Jose) and Tyrel Lacey (just back from a stint with now-bankrupt Norwegian top side FC Lyn-Oslo) are both training with the Sounders today.
I'll try not to read too much into this, as players in flux frequently land in a training camp to keep sharp. Coaches also love to bring guys like these two in to keep competition at a high level. However, just as frequently, an arrangement like this is meant to get a look at the players in question with an eye toward keeping them around.
The takeaway - if I'm Ford and Meridith, I just amped my game up from "easing into it" to "no holds barred".
Others tweeted by Joshua Mayers to be in training: Sounders Academy alum Darwin Jones, 2011 Draftee Alex Caskey, and 2011 invitee Jonathan Prieto.
UPDATE:
@joshuamayers "Andrew Weber (formerly of San Jose) and goalkeeper Tyrel Lacey"... does that make 5 GKs at training today??
@x_Slacker 5 on the training camp roster. Not sure I spotted Weber.

Weber's a stud
he would’ve been the heir to Busch’s throne in SJ if SJ hadn’t won the Bingham lottery
Win or lose, we'll always be there for you.

If Michael Gspurning Doesnt Start ...
Michael makes a couple boner mistakes and we will boo him off the field.
Nice to have a legit backup.
Welcome to Seattle Michael!
