The Beaver 2.0 Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Mexico looking good for the win vs. the Ticos. Would be nice if Jamaica got the win, too. If that happens, then a win in El Salvador puts us through automatically, no? Math me up. TGAA_Star 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we win on Wednesday, gives us 25 points which would be enough to clinch our spot with 3 games left to spare Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panama needs to drop 5 points (i.e. 2 losses or a loss and tie) and Costa Rica needs to drop 3 points (ie. lose one or tie both matches) for us to officially qualify this window Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youllneverwalkalone Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 (edited) So if we qualify in this window, does the final stage in March become a cynical attempt to cap-tie everyone in sight? I feel like the answer is, and should be, no. But I also feel like that may be naive. Ugbo seemed to have quite the interview with Henry to get on board. This is just such a strange place to be right now. I feel like caveman being invited to a black tie dinner. No idea how to behave...

F*&k this psychological-inferiority discussion of 'I'd trade a loss in this game if we could get a win in this one' or 'Oh I'm nervous, the central American jungles have been historically unkind to us' .... Look down, make sure you've got a set. Ok, we good, they are still there? Damn right, now let's go out and take 3 from every opponent we ever face. Let our players cherish those moments in games when they see the first glimpses of failure register on our opponent's faces because they can't handle this 21st century version of Canadian soccer. And then put your foot to their throats and crush them. Ok, before I take too much flack I'm also a realist and know we are not going to take three points every single time we take the field. But we finally have a team good enough to take the approach I laid out above (every single time they take the field). As fans we need to start mirroring their expectations and expecting victories. 9 points next window!!! Just saying!!!!!! F@#king Eh boys!!! Let's start planning for Qatar right now! I'm soooooo in! masster 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rydermike Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 (edited) Well if Panama's going to win and prevent our official qualification this window, then I wouldn't mind seeing Costa Rica win to make that mid-table a party and put pressure on US and Mexico Edited January 30, 2022 by rydermike narduch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it has to be a cynical cap if we call in players like Jebbo & Mitrovic. It's clear they are on Canada's radar and contact has been made. If in fact we do qualify this window Herdman will want to take a look at some players in the event they can make the team stronger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well if we qualify, we have a chance to cap tie whoever we want and then when we bring them in, it creates quite the competition to see who makes the final 23 man squad for Qatar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Beaver 2.0 Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 If we are through before the final window, then we need to treat the final three games as a chance to stay sharp and prepare for Qatar. Maybe we bring in a couple of young(er) guys, but I don't think you mess with the culture. apbsmith 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't mean bring a complete B squad, but like give guys like Ugbo a full 90, let Crepeau get a match, call up a couple guys like Mitrovic/PAton and get them some action Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that there likely won’t be any cynical 1-minute cameos just to lock someone down. But the fact is that barring any catastrophe - we are going to Qatar. If a guy like Jebbison was invited for the March window and given a chance to stake a claim for a spot in a team that will be in the next two WCs he may chose to start trying to get integrated into the group.

canadasoccer20 Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 I think next window at least 1 dual on the fence joins us ... People dream about playing in the world cup and if duals are guaranteed 2 world cups minimum you would need to have some time with the team first so it would be smart to join in March. I'm hoping Jebbison. TGAA_Star 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
