Waterman and Sirois have not shown enough the past 3 months. They've had some really bad games. Brym over JRR is the real shock. Thrilled about Laryea.

Gian-Luca Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 11 minutes ago, Namaste said: I can understand if the rationale behind omitting JRR and Tani is to keep them with their MLS teams so they can solidify their starting roles. And Tani's team plays a game during the international break. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gator Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 MLS Canada manager playing nice with MLS clubs perhaps?

Mihairokov Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 Brym and Zator surprising. Assuming missing MLS players have been kept with their squads due to travel and schedule. Ivan and costarg 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obinna Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 Hard to know what to make of this squad.....Sirois left off for McGill....presumably to let him continue with his MLS games....but what about Ahmed.....same boat? JRR possibly the same boat also, maybe even Tani. Don't need both if you want to bring Ugbo and Bair, and being in Europe maybe they were preferred. Ditto Brym. Glad LDF is there and Heibert is interesting given Marsch's comments about him before. He's seemingly being chosen ahead of Kennedy, which may be somewhat controversial. On the otherhand, good for Heibert to come back into the national team, we don't want guys out of the picture for too long. Speaking of which, no Theo again. That's a disappointment for me. Happy for Hoilett and Zator, though. Kusch to the Corner, costarg and Canuckia 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really I don’t understand how a 24 year old playing reserves deserves a national team call, it’s a slap in the face to more deserving goalkeepers Or a wake up call to the guys competing for the spot. I'm totally fine for holding guys accountable for poor starts to seasons and not playing well enough. It's enough with the automatic call ups based on the past. We have enough depth to go purely on merit. I'm soo done with the brotherhood bullshit. Corazon and johnyb 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shway Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 In no way is Heibert better than Kennedy, or even Waterman. That's the shocker for me. Brym, and Bair are probably on auditions and because they are in Holland/Scotland made it easier for them to be called. I think JRR ultimately ends up in the Copa squad. narduch, costarg, Corazon and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But these are not just any friendlies. The opportunity to play the Netherlands & France is not something that may happen for a long time. We should have taken our strongest squad. A loss to those 2 teams is expected, but we have to be competitive and play well as it will influence the future ability for other games vs nations that are willing to pay all expenses. This is the only opportunity for Marsch to see players train/play under him before the Copa squad is picked. johnyb, ImYourKeeper, Corazon and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dyslexic nam Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 13 minutes ago, Kadenge said: Disappointed that Rowe & Ahmed are not included. It's an MLS lite squad When the new Arby’s-MLS-Amazon Men’s National Team Coach sponsorship was announced I think we were worried about squads being MLS heavy and favouritism materializing that way. It turns out the tactic may be a bit different (potentially depending on circumstances) and that the approach may be to leave out guys playing key roles for their club such as JRR, Sirois, Waterman, and Ahmed. I know that isn’t universally the case but when you look at the impact (sorry…) on a CF Montreal team that is already losing Piette and Choiniere, it could definitely influence the non-selection of Sirois and Waterman.

youllneverwalkalone Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 Beyond no new dual players, I don't have much to quibble with beyond leaving off Corbeanu. I doubt many of these fringe Euros make Copa unless they really show something here. Marsch will know the MLS players through his connections at home. gator and Corazon 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New coach needs to do a lot of work getting guys familiar with his system. Can’t see him adding/deleting anyone just before a match v Argentina… Stryker911, Kadenge and Kusch to the Corner 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
