Shkelzen Gashi is one of the best signings, at least on paper, for the Colorado Rapids. But can he resuscitate the dream of offensive, possession based soccer in Colorado? Have we seen the end of the Mastronaccio?
I'm not going to lie to you, this Gashi signing has me feeling a bit strange. It's a cautious optimism with which I am not comfortable. It's an uncomfortable feeling of hope. Not hope, mind you, that this coming season is going to be anything other than a complete disaster. No, that hope would be too far fetched.
But the hope would be that this new signing could mean a return to attacking soccer for the Rapids.
