WCQ: Panama v Canada - Wednesday, March 30, 9pm Eastern / 6pm Pacific - Panama City

Interesting mix

Probably would've gone ugbo over cav and given David some rest.  Atiba I think calls his own shot at this point.  Excited to see kone

Have we seen anything yet from Ugbo to suggest he's a better choice? If Cava regains his early 2021 form he's a lock for me.

For club, yes. Cavallini hasn't done much for Canada lately either and Ugbo has yet to be given a chance for country. They're moving in different directions imo.

He left the Jamaica game hurt.

Wow strong lineup! 

I'm totally cool with Cav getting the start to bang it out in South America.

He played well in his limited minutes and excited to see what he brings. 

Subs will be interesting, but the boss clearly playing to get all 3 points. I love it.

[blueseeka]

Poor Cornelius can't get any action. Was hoping he'd get a chance

[mowe]

Excited to see that midfield in action. I think we can really control this game.

Herdman seems really set on having a right-footed player playing in the middle of back 3 or as the RCB in a back 4. I don't think we've seen Kennedy, Miller, or Cornelius in that spot, despite sometimes being the obvious option. As far as I can remember, only Vitoria, Henry and Atiba have played in that spot.

Has Panama released their starting 11? Be curious to see if they are going for the win or trying to expose some youth.

Theory: Cavallini gets the start as a sort of "farewell" and will not be included in the Qatar squad.

I hope you’re wrong about that.

[Ally McCoist]

Odds Kone scores or gets an assist?

Totally agree with this.

Cheering hard!!!!!! Also that helps the Floro thread go to page 4-5 of the forum.

He scores in the first 20 minutes or we riot!

Most of their usual starters

The warm ups have began down in Panama. Less than 40 minutes to kickoff.

It irrationally pisses me off seeing this guy on the front page. That mofo takes up free real estate in people's heads here.

[Cblake]

Since we are a bilingual country, here you go for our folk from Quebec and beyond.

He's on corner kick shithousery duty

[CCrTFC]

Nice to see from Kone, and also which broadcast is she on? Asking for professional reasons only of course.

[Neil R.]

Could be the white kit tonight. Haven't seen it in a while.

I can see why JH might opt for an experienced lineup, it's good to see he has confidence in Kone, it remains to be seen how he works out as a starter, it may be an unpopular opinion but I would have started Fraser over Kaye or possibly Kone! This is a good chance for Cav to show that he still has it, surely Millar gets a chance to come in and run at some tired legs or it was a waste to call him! If other CB's are fit I would have preferred Atiba in the midfield and one of them playing their natural position no matter what foot they kick with, hopefully JH has this right!

I would have started all 3 and let Eustaquio rest but Herdman clearly isn't afraid of leaning to heavily on his vets.

Why isn't Borjan playing?
