Kadenge Posted May 31 Share Posted May 31 1 hour ago, Shway said: Man I really think and prefer that LDF is with this team. Allow him to experience international tournament, and make him be the leader. Maybe Marsch has him on trial and what's to see him up close. But with 6 CBs in camp, unless he's projected to start...I hope he eventually ends up at the tournament. I think we underestimate the importance of a youth player dominating or breaking out at a youth tournament (guys there are). We've seen careers change after it like Tajon, and Derek. Agree with this. With 1 pro game under his belt, its hard to see how LDF would be playable in the 3+ Copa games, unless he is outperforming the other CBs in practice and does well if he gets mins in the 2 friendlies, which in itself is a reach given the 2 opponents we face. I'm glad he is training with the squad but I would be surprised if he is part of the 18 or gets mins.

El Diego Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 Interesting blurb from the Canada Soccer site: There are 14 players returning from the squad that played in the CONCACAF qualifiers. Of the new additions; 3 players have had experience in the previous U17 cycle (Chukwu, Mathe, Dumitru) and there are 4 players who are receiving their first call-up to Canada’s youth teams (Ivanisevic, Juricic, Pacheco, Kane). Unavailable for selection due to club commitments are Kimani Stewart-Baynes and Alessandro Biello while Luc De Fougerolles is presently with our Men’s National Team.

toontownman Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 Love it. Some interesting bits to me: - assuming Biello/KSB/Tavernier/Schiavoni have been left off due to pushing for club minutes? - Kozlovskiy is a strange absence given his performances (injured?) - Don't know much about Ivanisevic, Pacheco or Juricic. Look like good dual natural looks maybe? - Bunbury with the passport? - Lopez returning is huge. - hope to see more from Diallo this time. Didn't see the hype in the qualifiers.

The article mentions Biello + KSB missing due to club commitments and LDF missing it due to CANMNT commitments, but nothing about Tavernier or any of the other omissions. Wonder if he really is getting moved this summer. toontownman, Ivan and Dominic94 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canucks Abroad suggests we have another in Bolivia as well, that just missed out on the age cutoff for this group. A 2004 born player named Diego Campos who plays on the reserve team for arguably the biggest Bolivian club Bolivar. Club Bolivar also just happened to top their Libertadores Group over Brazilian powerhouse Flamengo (hard for opponents to win games in La Paz). jordan, cronaldo7 and Borjans Sweatpants 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder if this implies they would have been in the team if not unavailable, and will be part of the actual CONCACAF U20 Championship. Very happy Lopez is in there, wish Tavernier was as well but maybe something is in the works with him.

Ivan Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 I'll speculate and say that Tavernier and Schiavoni were left off to have a look at other players and they will be there for the finals. Wasn't that Juricic kid called by Croatia earlier this year or do I have the wrong guy? nolando, toontownman and Shway 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toontownman Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 (edited) We have pretty much a reworked central midfield which is interesting. Schaivone and Biello were great a few months ago. Costa/Badwal remain as the sole consistent CM (although Costa is more of an AM isnt he?). Don't really remember Codinha being good or bad? Edit: OH my Badwal.

Ivanisevic was on the bench for the Istra first team in the final three matches of the season. He didn't get any minutes though. He played in almost every match for their U19 side this past season (24 matches played, 19 starts, 3 goals).

TGAA_Star Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 Hoping some of our U20s break out because then it does wonders for us going forward especially considering our home World Cup is in another 2 years and you never know if one of our U20s could just break out out of nowhere and get called up by then YorkRegionFan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kadenge Posted June 7 Share Posted June 7 So another conspiracy theory that MLS academy kids would dominate our youth teams re Cdn MLS coach sponsorship gets blown out of the water. The first was re our CMNT. 2 down.... Ivan, Kent and phresh 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
