That means Canada's should be out in a few weeks. Notable absences are Elis, Lozano and Najar. Somewhat of a weak squad.

Obinna Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 Najar is not surprising because he has been in and out for ages, but why no Elis or Lozano? It's not like they have something more imp to rest up for. This is it for Honduras! Maybe they are just getting a break from a long Euro season and in the case of Elis perhaps there is a pending transfer. He's scored like 9 goals in 18 Ligue 1 games for Bordeaux on loan.

Elis hasn’t been in the Bordeaux lineup in over a month so I assume he’s inured. Lozano is apparently out due to a pending surgery Obinna 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shway Posted May 17, 2022 Author Share Posted May 17, 2022 (edited) This is a weak Honduras...but at the same time not to be underestimated. In the same breathe, it furthers my point of seeing squad rotation. Let's get some guys some minutes in Latin American countries when we can, so those demons can't exist.

Millar is out because of injury Kone is out because of injury and dip in form Gutierrez is out likely due to Edwards form so far this season Fraser is out as a general fringe player Cornelius is the only one that had a solid European season and not included. Given the fact that he was not used last international break when we had several injuries and given the fact he was not included in this squad for experience. It sure seems like he is "on the outside looking in" for Qatar. The only thing I could see that might detract from calling him would be that his season in Greece ended nearly a month ago? It still doesn't add up to me though. Seems like Herdman is banking on our two most injured players to be healthy for Qatar in Doneil & Vitoria. Add in that a 39 year old Atiba is likely our 3rd option at CB. And Herdman better pray that all three remain healthy and playing regularly because so far Henry & Vitoria have played a combined 4 or 5 times in 2022.

Now would have been a perfect time to acclimatize another CB like Joel Waterman, just in case of injury in the fall. Calling up nine forwards seems excessive. Maybe Mr. Herdman is going to experiment with formations? Shway, canuckgbp, EDM Rover and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bison44 Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 ^^^ This If we are calling Edwards for his form, why not Waterman for his form...11 starts already. I know Mcnaughton has 8 starts, but TFC leak goals...Montreal actually has had a decent backline. CB is still the spot that scares me the most.

Kadenge Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 An injury to Alistar means no back 3 formation. Henry and Vitoria are not mobile enough to play as a RCB in a back 3. Perhaps JH is planning on using a back 4 in Qatar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just from reading here it sounds like he had his moments. Essentially calling in 24 when WC rosters will be 26 seems like a mistake. You never know who could get injured and a good loan this season could see him pushing for a spot. narduch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He hasn't been called up since government announced their intent to ban the unvaccinated from air travel in August 2021 as he wouldn't be able to get back to England. He's a better player than Brym, was in every squad before the announcement and by a quick check of the IG hasn't been in Canada. I suspect if the ban gets dropped we see Theo back with the team. narduch and Shway 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InglewoodJack Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 All this talk about cancelled friendlies and noncommittal dual nationals makes me forget about who we actually have. Really hope that David and Larin especially have a great couple of games- would love to see them with some confidence boosters before next season, plus they might have a couple of nice highlight reel plays to sway a couple clubs that might have either on their radar (unless Larin’s Besiktas deal was already signed). I also miss watching Laryea play some real minutes. It’ll be great to watch him actually play well instead of hearing Forrest’s manager talk about it.

VinceA Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 I am a bit sad the Curacao squad isn't stronger. They had a lot of guys apparently interested last summer but since then some ended up getting looks with the Netherlands and others just haven't joined up. Maybe they'll be stronger in March.

They still have some strong players though by the looks of it, even though I am not familiar with most of them.
