Nate3322 Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 (edited) Solid move imo I'm glad Bassong found a club. With Raitala and Corrales leaving he can compete with Kizza for minutes. Edited November 30, 2020 by Nate3322 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toontownman Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 Love This Move. Fingers crossed for him. Love the idea of Bassong and ZBG on either side. Shame Waterman and Yao likely won't break through as starters. johnyb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame Waterman and Yao likely won't break through as starters. I wouldn't be so sure about Waterman. Depending on additional signings I wouldn't be surprised to see him start frequently. When healthy he was a starting semi regularly and definitely played well most nights. Camacho was good for a brain dead play or two a game and will hopefully be out while Fanni will probably retire leaving room for Joel in the squad.

toontownman Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 I thought Joel looked fine the last two times he featured, the last time was less successful when they moved him around but the time before he was arguably MOTM. Just disappointing he was dropped after and didn't feature again, especially with how poor the other defenders had been. Ivan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cronaldo7 Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 Definitely one advantage for fringey dual-nationals. There are some good opportunities here when compared to hyper-competitive Europe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bin Zayed Group (BZG) have also set their sights on a Montreal takeover as soon as their Derby purchase is complete. It's all coming together. dyslexic nam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big_M Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 “We are very happy to announce the signing of Zorhan Bassong, with whom we’ve had an agreement for 2021 for some time. We preferred to wait to make the announcement to avoid destabilizing the players in his position, and achieve our 2020 goals,” said Montreal Impact sporting director Olivier Renard. “He is a versatile young Canadian, playing as a left or right back, or as a center-back in a three-man defense. He’s shown a great desire to come back here, and he is delighted with the club’s project.” You can see it coming that he'll play some games at cb johnyb, costarg and Nate3322 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I really didn't understand why he was pulled from the starting lineup in the last few games. He was really impressive this year. costarg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corazon Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 Once it was announced, I figured it was a deal that had been verbally agreed quite some time ago. Too young and too good to stay Unattached FC. Obinna and johnyb 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should've had Camacho's minutes, impossible to say, but it couldn't have been much worse. And, they'd have that much more experience for 2021. Its really unfortunate.

An Observer Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 The very little I saw of Yao I liked. He could have benefited a lot from playing in the Island Games like Dunn did. Too bad the Impact didn't loan anyone for that. Hopefully, that will change in the future but sometimes I get the feeling that Saputo is a vengeful sort who likely sees CPL as a threat to him by putting sides in his province so he is more apt to try to kill them than work with them.

Shway Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 I was going down memory lane, and was thinking about the Danone Nations Cup (U10-12) and found out it still going on. Then I started looking at the rosters listed, and noticed a lot of current pros - Zorhan was Danone kid. https://www.coupedanonecup.com/en/information/ johnyb, Northvansteve, youllneverwalkalone and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
