Look at the last window - by matchday 3 we were down Larin, Kennedy, and Phonzie due to knocks. You don't think that can happen again? And we need to win that Panama game. Can't give any more points at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
narduch Posted October 1, 2021 Share Posted October 1, 2021 We need to win the Panama game but we also need to pick up more than 3 points this window. dyslexic nam and Shway 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canuckgbp Posted October 1, 2021 Share Posted October 1, 2021 We may match up better against Mexico then Jamaica honestly. With Jamaica's directness and speed it can be a big problem for us in the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamaica has little experience playing together and doesn’t have much of a home field advantage (not even sure if they will have any fans in attendance). If I’m targeting an away match for points it’s that one over Azteca by far dennis, Kent, dyslexic nam and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is a tough decision for Herdman. johnyb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canuckgbp Posted October 1, 2021 Share Posted October 1, 2021 We also might have to live with the fact that Davies is only good for two starts. I believe the media said he came into the Canada camp last window with a slight injury so maybe he is good for all three games this time barring something else developing. Two starts would keep Bayern happy. We didn't need him against ES last window.... I think he will be needed against Panama for that final game though.

EJsens1 Posted October 1, 2021 Share Posted October 1, 2021 There’s a lot of good debate on the approach to the Mexico game. I think coining the term “go for it” is the wrong way to look at it. Let’s give this squad a little more credit. I said earlier in this thread that we can hang with this team and the gap has closed the last 2-3 years considerably. I like a balanced approach to this window. Start your good players and asses each game as it plays out. We have 5 subs to make quick changes. Hopefully the injuries aren’t as big a factor going into next week Free kick, narduch, Trois Reds and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fullback Posted October 1, 2021 Share Posted October 1, 2021 Brym over Tesho is the only head scratcher for me. Good to see an increased squad size, which means guys like Liam, Jacob, and ZBG all get to be included (who all definitely deserve it). Borjan still in the squad too which has me optimistic johnyb, Free kick, apbsmith and 6 others 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
