Yeah unfortunately Fraser is out even though he should be in ahead of MAK. Hutch, Staq, Oso in the middle and then our cover is Kone and Wotherspoon. MAK along for the ride because I don't think Herdman wants to risk any drama for that remaining spot. lamptern 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s gotta push past some of these MLS guys man The league is in is probably better than half of the Norwegian top tier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shway Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 Thing with Fraser Vs Kaye is that Kaye is looking to advance or get forward. Fraser is always looking to drop. I like him, and his game, but those two are just not comparable as their games are different. jonovision 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have always liked Fraser. I get that he is not as young as many of those teens that TFC was trialing the past two years but I see him as a better prospect than all of those guys except for JMR. I think Fraser is very useful but I think that he has a bit of a ceiling though. Edited November 11, 2022 by Free kick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Razcal Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 13 minutes ago, Unnamed Trialist said: Conclusion: Kone man of the match for Canada. Osorio got his minutes, and Piette held up correctly. The rest of the MLS guys got some game pace. All were acceptable, except maybe Waterman and Kaye. And Ayo, who is nowhere near anyways. St. Clair likely is not as good as Crepeau, and a much clearer step down from Borjan than Maxime. Henry "didn't play" his way onto the team. Disagree on Piette, on both of their goals he was not getting back defensively at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He needs to avoid yellows. I agree that he is bit under rated. But i am not ready put him ahead of MAK in the pecking order. MAK is more versatile IMHO.

SpursFlu Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 Wotherspoon, Fraser, Atiba, MAK, Kone Atiba will get the benefit of the doubt but after that Herdman has to take the best players. Some people ain't coming. This ain't a country club. 2 of those guys aren't coming and it won't be Kone, that's for sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Missed opportunity for some guys. Hopefully Akinola can regain form with a full offseason. It was always going to be tough playing catchup midseason. Amongst the top ten goal scorers for Canada, Cavallini has the second-best strike rate, behind only David (and vaguely had something to do with our second today). Maybe he'll pot a couple in Qatar.

Stoppage Time Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 The players among whom final roster spots must be distributed include ZBG, Fraser, Kaye, Waterman, Cornelius, and Edwards. Injuries to others may affect this. Bear in mind that the turf was hideous and that may have negatively affected playing styles. Doe anybody know the extent of Henry's injury? I cannot imagine any more bizarre event than his injury during warm up in a game in which he needs to play. FWIW, Macnaughton played quite well today. jhoops__ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prairiecanuck Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 Every time I see Kone, I come away thinking more and more he should be in our starting 11. Yes he should have finished his header, but he got into that position. He had 2 good passes into the box in the final 10. I wondered what would have happened if that had been Davies receiving those balls. Kone is just a class above for me. jhoops__, An Observer, canucksfan and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig11rm Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 I think I would play 3 in the midfield but my CM rankings would be Eustaquio Osorio Hutchinson Kone Piette Choiniere Fraser Kaye just got to find the right balance with those players. Admittedly I would rank Arfield #2 if he were included.. grigorio 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigandy Posted November 11, 2022 Share Posted November 11, 2022 46 minutes ago, Corazon said: Probably the worst I've seen from Johnston and Miller in a Canadian jersey. At least in a long time. Has to be because waterman is in the middle. He was sooo far off the level today. Watch him defend 1v1 or even 2v1 for the pk. He drops off him man every time giving them space. He should never be split for the past that led to the pk. All his passing was backwards or sideways. I watched him specifically to see if he made forward passes and he hardly made any. We had miller at times coming all the way across to the right to cover because waterman is dragged all over the pitch. Waterman was atrocious today Corazon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MAK along for the ride because I don't think Herdman wants to risk any drama for that remaining spot. Herdman's job is to field the best squad. Other WC teams are leaving guys out (US left out Steffan and Pepi, for example) If Fraser is the better choice, then he should be in and vice-versa.
