phil03 Posted June 29 Share Posted June 29 Honestly, for the life of me I don't get the preference of Oso over Choiniere. Like, don't get me wrong: I like Oso but he is getting on a bit... costarg, Mihairokov, jhoops__ and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestHamCanadianinOxford Posted June 29 Share Posted June 29 Nunez is the only non-old player of theirs I really know. Hope we have a plan for him, can pass the ball out of midfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd probably big Choiniere myself (or Kone, more likely) but Osorio has strengths. RJB, Corazon, Cadeau and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pod818 Posted June 29 Share Posted June 29 I agree with the changes, Shaffelburg has been amazing and deserves the start. We were very shaky last game and Osorio brings the experience to calm things down. Corazon and Cadeau 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough on the first two points, altough I'd argue the past tense is key on the second, but I'd say that Choinière is as good as providing offense, if its less flashy. costarg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floortom Posted June 29 Share Posted June 29 We had to go in a different direction from Kone. Can’t afford that type of shakiness. Maybe Kone is better off a sub for one night. i get the concerns on Osorio but if there’s a squad he can be effective against it’s Chile. jhoops__ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soccerpro2 Posted June 29 Share Posted June 29 (edited) Surprised at Laryea starting. Thought he was bad last game. Osorio hasn’t been good since his serious head injury pre-world cup. Edited June 29 by Soccerpro2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattd97 Posted June 29 Share Posted June 29 Davies also coming up. I thought everyone was we figured out a role for him and he could settle in. I don't know what marsch is thinking honestly. Goofy choices. Tie France, play well against Argentina, switch up lineups and positions gator, Ivan, mpg_29 and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what the lineup prediction showed that has the right changes according to the cmnt squad release.

Yeah part of the old ie. wiley experienced - guys I know ( bit less without Bravo.) But maybe Osorio's role to match that a little. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe MacCarthy Posted June 29 Share Posted June 29 How to watch and odds Date: Saturday, June 29 | Time: 8 p.m. ET Location: Inter&Co Stadium -- Orlando, Florida TV: FS2 | Live stream: Fubo (Try for free) Odds: Canada +230; Draw +220; Chile +125 Storylines Canada: With the attack missing so many of the chances it creates, the defense has been Canada's strength so far. The Canucks have been organized pressing at key moments to win the ball back from the opposition a signature Marsch strategy which he has them well drilled at already. Scoring your first goal is the hardest and now that's out of the way, more will come for the Canucks. Chile: While Chile aren't out of the running for the knockout stage, since a victory would put them above Canada and into second, it sure feels like it. Everything around this squad is uninspired. Lucky to not concede more goals to Argentina, Chile's attack hasn't been there during this tournament. Alexis Sanchez has missed big chances that could've made the group quite different, and it's hard to have optimism that they'll get the win needed to advance. Prediction In another start stop game due to fouls, Canada will get the victory via Jonathan David keeping up the scoring after netting his first goal at Copa America. Pick: Canada 2, Chile 1 jhoops__ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mpg_29 Posted June 29 Share Posted June 29 (edited) Starting Shafleberg and putting Davies up front only make sense to me if we are planning to be super direct with long balls over the top. Edited June 29 by mpg_29 gator and 74 Whitecap 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frattinator Posted June 29 Share Posted June 29 I have a feeling we are going to see Johnston tucking in the midfield when we are in possession, similar to what we did in the second half last game (and what he often did at Celtic with Ange).
