Permalink Reply by Patrick Ackroyd on January 10, 2013 at 3:56 I'm interested in the keepers and would like to see where Cecilia Santiago Cisneros lands, Very impressed with her play in Germany and at such a young age. Being a solid Philadelphia Independence fan I, enjoyed Karina LeBlanc. Hope she lands somewhere on the east coast so we can get to watch her play. It's great to see this much talent being fuzed in this continent. Best of luck to all. And, still hoping and advocating for that Philly team.

Permalink Reply by A-Hamm on January 11, 2013 at 0:42 Lots of great possible combinations.I doubt you'd see Wambach, Morgan, Sinclair, Dominguez all on the same team though, that would just be unfair!
