If it's "core" it will probably be MLS based or players that are a part of the NL squad but not starters. Wheeler saying Sept is the time to blood new players..do we even have friendlies set up??? Use the GC to cap Loturi, Choiniere, McGill if he's highly rated, McGraw, Heibert etc. These players need competitive games to test what they can bring to the squad going forwards. I agree because we need to add to our core but also build towards the next generation of Canadian football Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We can hope this trend continues and FIFA points will be available to us in Toronto. Edited June 13, 2023 by Raven Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They really were 100% certain they were going to beat us in WCQ, and when we won 4-0 it's like a switch went off in their heads. Maybe we're their Honduras. dyslexic nam, nolando, Ruffian and 3 others 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shway Posted June 13, 2023 Share Posted June 13, 2023 Why did it take 8 games for Concacaf to recognize this? Surely an appeal is warranted, which should inevitably delay the ruling….but it’s Concacaf. Kent, narduch and Olympique_de_Marseille 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He only came to Nicaragua in 2018 but started playing for them in 2019. He only would have been eligible in FIFA's eyes this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haiti seems to be relying on more overseas players for this tourney so there's probably no issue since they can use their other passports. Cuba doesn't really have issues getting into the US ofr sporting tournaments. Their only issue is the defections that usually follow. However these days they actually have a chunk of US based guys and guys playing in Central American leagues and a few in Europe. narduch and Shway 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trc2014 Posted June 13, 2023 Share Posted June 13, 2023 For the first time, I think that Jebbison not accepting the GC call wouldn’t be the best idea for his career.

Even if they didn’t, didn’t Violette AC have no issues when they came to play Austin during champions league? I remember that was an “issue” and yet they got all their players over just fine.

footballfreak Posted June 13, 2023 Share Posted June 13, 2023 (edited) Everyone missed the big takeaway from the Nicaragua news. https://www.fmfstateofmind.com/2023/5/30/23739659/nicaraguas-national-team-richard-rodriguez-mexico-zendejas-case-concacaf “Born in Toledo, Uruguay, Richard Rodriguez started his career in Rentistas, a second division club of that nation. After a short spell in another Uruguayan club, Canadian, he would go to his first foreign club in Honduras, where he played in Platense.” — https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canadian_Soccer_Club Canadian S.C. was founded in late 2010 by A Uruguayan living in Canada from the need of the community of Uruguayans living in Canadato have a team representing them back home. Their supporters group is known as La Banda del Norte (the Band of the North) or LBDN and their main rival is Club Atlético Torque. The club made its official debut in the Uruguayan Segunda División Amateur on 2 October 2011 against Basañez, on a 2–1 home win. Los canadienses won the Clasura title in their second season, earning them a promotion to the Uruguayan Segunda División.[1] — Maybe I’m late to the party on this, but that’s a pretty cool bit of trivia.
