This recent move—acquiring Anthony Markanich from St. Louis CITY SC—has fans scratching their heads, wondering, "Is this really gonna work?" Markanich, 24, is a left-back who’s already played for two MLS clubs—Colorado Rapids and more recently, St. Louis CITY SC. He’s not exactly a name that jumps off the page, or one that makes fans rush to grab the new jersey with his name on the back.

But is the price paid, in terms of General Allocation Money (GAM), really worth it?
