Protega Posted August 8 Share Posted August 8 On 8/7/2024 at 3:43 PM, Ivan said: More loans to CPL hopefully. Not sure that would work - if a player isn't with their academy, they would presumably have to sign him to the first team before loaning him out, and that would eat into the salary cap and I can't see CPL teams willing to take on much of those salaries. Heard from a couple of players that the big driver of the change is the need to fund the new women's team. Ivan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess some of the guys don't want to admit the real reason. narduch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kadenge Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 Saputo Inc reported a 10% increase in quarterly sales and profits. Hopefully Joey has a few more bucks for CFM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozzie_the_parrot Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 (edited) Guess I can tune the Leagues Cup out now until the semi-finals. Not necessarily a bad concept but having every single LigaMX and MLS club involved means there are lots of relatively low quality games happening that nobody really asked for or want to watch. International club competitions are supposed to be about seeing how the best clubs that each league have to offer match up.

I don't know, Lassiter has been played at a position that does not suit him at all. Can't really blame him. Duke however, you score 100% on that one. He just has not come close to expectations. In his case the issue really seems like it's in his head. The missed scoring chances, flubbed passes, turnovers, he's just looked really unfocused.

costarg Posted August 25 Share Posted August 25 With Montreal down 0-2 to a weak Rev team and the playoffs on the line, Courtois seems to have finally understood his system is not working. Switched to a 4-2-3-1 for the first time this season. Problem is JMR is stuck playing RB for now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excluding the two newest arrivals who have had little time to mesh with their teammates, the performance of the rest of the squad was terrible. Defensve issues galore, either from the back line's marking to midfielders not tracking opponents' foward runs. Serious knee issues and attitude have undermined Martinez. This team needs to be tougher mentally and a foster a collective spirit because right now the body language from some of the key guys is poor and sends a finger pointing/blame game message.

I know we're excited for our growth at the CB position in recent months but clearly our depth is still a concern if Waterman is continuing to get called up. I don't watch him regularly but it seems like its mistake after mistake by him on a weekly basis. Can't blame Rudy anymore and we can't keep blaming others.

He hasn't played great but honestly nobody looks good for this team right now. The team looks like they're just out there to kick the ball around. There just seems to be no identity or sense of urgency in our game right now. It's honestly depressing seeing Nancy do so well with the Crew.
