Yes, he has been training every day at Inter with crazy good players but he's played a total of 37 mins of competitive soccer since arriving in January. I know he's one of our top players. Just playing devil's advocate. Does anyone not have him in their 1st 11? I expect to see Tajon and Stache in there fresh, sharp and hungry. it might even be an advantage to having them come in had they been playing every minute of champions and league matches. johnyb and Cheeta 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

costarg Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 28 minutes ago, WestHamCanadianinOxford said: Again, mate, we have done this and argued this and I respect your opinion but still think its wrong. However, some factual errors or your assumptions are not facts. - We aren't inventing anything with Johnston. he has done it a lot, remember. And we had success to a degree. If we have better options at his position we need to use them, of course, but don't pretend he hasn't done it and other nations and clubs don't use similar players. I am not actually saying start him, to be honest. - Davies hasn't played LB for Canada forever , so you can't actually say it improves our defense. So saying "Any way we add it up" is again silly. I get it, fully respect your point of view as well. Not about the arguing though! Maybe debated or challenged, but never with ill intent. I might write direct and dry, but I do not get worked up from anything I read or write here. Just passionate about the team and game. I love the tactical side of the game and I just love sharing the passion and ideas. WestHamCanadianinOxford 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He will want to show that he is a 90 minute player and can contribute offensively. I actually have him as my dark horse for a goal (along with the safer JD) in a 2-0 win. He may. It be playing in Serie A but I bet he is training hard as hell in an effort to get minutes. Cheeta, narduch, johnyb and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watchmen Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 This is the most nervous I've been for a game in a bit. The WCQ ended up being just a steady march, the WC itself I viewed as mostly fun (despite the results), the NL I don't really rank (but would have been nice to win), the Gold Cup was a B team, and the Jamaica games were comfortable (right up until they weren't). Losing this would be the biggest set back to the program in a while. scullion44 and Club Linesman 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GasPed Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 5 hours ago, YorkRegionFan said: Whatever formation we play, Davies should not be taking the free kicks, corners or penalties. He has world class speed, but I have yet to see him create dangerous chances with the free kicks and corners. Well, there was at least one - Davies vs. Panama (literally), first goal after Panama goes up 1 - 0, Oct. 13, 2021, BMO Field (start at 2:30) king1010 and YorkRegionFan 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FFS I would prefer not to watch this game on PVR but I am not sure this is avoidable. Maybe I will get lucky and contract the vapours. So the great news is there is no conflict between the game and the party. The bad news is that it’s because the party is tonight, I screwed up the dates, and I am going to be in the doghouse for a bit. Woot woot! Game baby!

Alex Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 Gentlemen… I understand they beat the US after Dest has a crying fit red card but they also lost 6-0 in the gold cup to them. USL league one players, T&T league defenders. Remember they bowed out of the last wcq when they couldn’t beat Bahamas. johnyb and HochelagaFC 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
