DrunkOffPunch Posted June 16 Share Posted June 16 Hopefully the grass that’s getting laid down is in good shape throughout the tourney. Wasn’t impressed with the conditions in the NL semi/finals. narduch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be a disaster for any hope we have about progressing out of our group. dyslexic nam, costarg and jhoops__ 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit: I'd like to use Bluesky more, but it's still a bit of a pain in the ass. I guess this opens up the door for Arfield again! Imagine that, guys allowed to take breaks for personal reasons and not get exiled. What a time to be alive and a CANMNT fan. narduch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesse said to himself that's my 6. Kidding aside, I've been thinking for a while Waterman might make a great 6. His defensive awareness and passes are the best part of his game. That would free up Kone and Eustaquio to play further up the pitch or have 2 sixes (Waterman & Eustaquio) with Kone as an 8.

He was a 6 by trade in college and was turned into a ball-playing CB by Wheeldon jr. He's probably best suited to being the middle guy in a back three but otherwise he could probably do a job at the 6. I don't know how I feel about that against good teams but I'm guessing Marsch just likes his profile. TGAA_Star and Sal333 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine that, guys allowed to take breaks for personal reasons and not get exiled. What a time to be alive and a CANMNT fan. Maybe he's got a lot to sort out on the club side. His parent club got relegated to 3rd tier in France and his current club survived relegation from the Championship, but may not be able to afford to bring him back. He's British as well and hasn't played at "home" in a few seasons now, so maybe some loose ends need to be tied up from a personal standpoint, especially if it's not clear if he'll return to the UK? Who knows, but I am not worried about it. Also gives someone like Bair an opportunity and we are stacked at forward so it's good to remove a bit of the logjam. We will see him again.

VinceA Posted June 16 Author Share Posted June 16 18 hours ago, phil03 said: Yeah, I am not blaming Ugbo here and I am not worried for him. He really had a rotten luck in recent years. Troyes should have been it: he played a key role in saving them from relegation and realistically he should have established himself as a regular double-digit scorer in Ligue 1. Instead they fired the coach, thinking they could get better, and the new guy frozed Ugbo out, even when Troyes was actually getting relegated and he might be able to change things. He find a spot in Championship in Cardiff, does ok but for some reasons need a loan elsewhere, where he does quite good. Is it any wonder the guy want to take some time to make sure he can stick to Sheffield Wednesday for the time being and recharge his batteries? Yeah to me this seems like his club career is way too uncertain so he wanted to deal with that before anything else, which is understandable. king1010, costarg, WestHamCanadianinOxford and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, but I think they should avoid these statements that colour the decision, like he decided to leave. Which means he's slighted Canada and refused a callup basically. Which is sanctionable in fact. Just say he's out and won't continue. Our press doesn't care enough to really want an accurate answer. king1010, WestHamCanadianinOxford, narduch and 1 other 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a 26 man squad. Players in a 23 man squad often don't see the field. Let alone see decent minutes. We have 3 similars strikers, at least. I really like what he did with Wednesday but I like what others have done and he needs to find a good situation to continue his momentum.

As a fan I want more information, not less. Give it to me straight, you know? If he is declining a call up for personal matters, then it is what it is. Life happens. I'd rather be given that information than simply saying he's out, without any context. Kusch to the Corner, king1010 and nolando 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arfield is 36 now and not to mention he hasn't played for us in years. Ugbo on the other hand I don't hold this against him at all. He'll be back unlike some.
