What a moment to capture. Just a few years ago he's going up against Escalante, now it's Messi. I will continue to say this..."God bless the CPL"

That's my CB! At some point we might have to potentially try a backline consisting of 2 left footed CBS.

If there truly is turmoil in the change room...keeping Biello in charge would be a detriment. CSA needs to hire someone new, someone good, and that man fast! We're on a downward spiral, and some upcoming results could be vital to that stopping. Copa isn't guaranteed. And could be lost by the end of this year!

Here's hoping he kills it and doesn't come back.

I've seen wayyy to many people suggest an American to take the helm. Sincerely. No thank you.

It's the same thing we saw with Nelson.

4th consecutive start for Theo.

Back at square one and the real issue that the men and women aren't on the same page...but somehow the CSA or CSB will get mentioned. This is absolutely embarrassing. Especially the break down and mention of the "compensation is well above the minimum for an exit at the Group Stage" No way the women approved of this message. If the did their at a come down, while the men have a different stance. This is a civil war now.

Is Laryea an option? I agree though, that is a continued glaring issue.

....For those questioning Bombito. I personally like him, I think he has a lot of upside with more game time.... (He recently played 90 in the Rapids last game, and let's see if he features tonight) The reason why I selected him over Ahmed, is because he's more defensive. And we have Kone, Eustaqiou, and Osorio who are midfielders who like to get forward. The only argument would've been Loturi, but I've just seen more of Bombito to make the decision.

I 100% agree with this. I find it crazy, and mind-boggling as well. This isn't basketball where guys don't want to affect their jump shots. There is the flipside that once you're not blessed with speed, there's only so much you can do especially after the age of 25. But a lot of sports science is proving that there are ways to improve. Akinola and his 600K salary is what bothers me considering his weight and fitness issues.

Which is complete bullshit. That shit should only happen at the amateur levels.

Very questionable. At no point does he look back. It's accidental, so maybe a yellow.

Here's my squad of 23, if we had friendlies scheduled in the next few weeks. GK: Borjan, St. Clair, Sirios CB: Miller, Cornelius, McGraw, MacNaughton, Kennedy MF: Choiniere, Kone, Estaquio, Osorio, Bombito WB: Laryea, Adekugbe, Buchanan, Davies, Corbeanu, Nelson FW: David, Larin, Ugbo, Brym _____ ------------------------Borjan-------------------------- -------------McGraw----Cornelius----Miller------------ Buchanan-------Eustaquio-----Kone----------Davies-- ------------------------Choiniere------------------------ -----------------David----------Larin-------------------- ________ Everyone except Borjan is under the age of 27, and tbh I was tempted to not put St. Clair as the starter. I think the goal should be to qualify for Copa America, and use that squad to build for 26 (with no more Hoilett, Vitoria, Borjan - with the ultimate respect) Side note, I think going forward we will see a lot of roster turnover for positions 16-23 (outside of the elite core 7-8 guys) because we have sooooo many guys playing at the same level and getting adequate club minutes or have recently appeared in the CMNT. It could and should be based on form. Like look at this list of the guys below that are not listed above: Johnston, Vitoria, Cavallini, Hoilett, Fraser, Millar, Loturi, Piette, Kaye, Ahmed, Shaffelburg, Waterman, ZBG, Raposo, JM-R, Franklin, Zator, JR-R, Vilsaint, Bair, Heibert, Priso, Balidsimo, Saliba, Franklin, Edwards, Froese and Colyn. This is why I wouldn't be mad if JH leaves. He's set a good foundation and mentality to build off of while allowing the potential of seeing fresh new faces, and new ideas from a new coach who holds no affinity to certain players (that is if it isn't from within).

Fack. With Postecoglu I think Spurs might be a good move after all....push Richarlison back out wide, and have David checking in and combining with Madisson and outside players....fack. I hate Spurs.

I don't disagree with what you said...because I've stated pretty much everything you said. Feel like you quoted the wrong comment. Is JH in extreme power? Yes, because he decides if he stays or goes and he just renegotiated a raise that would guarantee his pay till 2026. CSA can't afford to "fire" him knowing he would require a severance package. Again, I agree that we could find another coach, and there will be lots wanting to throw their hat in the pile considering all the tournaments you mentioned...but the names that some have listed (Ancellotti, Van Gaal, Klinsman) on a shoestring budget aren't even realistic never mind being pessimistic. The reality is Herdman is making 700K+ a year? That needs to be cut in half at least. JH position of extreme power is that right now he gets to decide his future. The CSA will not sack him.

JH is in a position of extreme power. The CSA can't afford (literally and figuratively) to let him go due to circumstances we know.

Different "dance/motion". (Lol I hated hearing that guy. Somehow he had a massive cult following.)

Severance package only happens if the CSA wants to sever ties with JH. But the rumours are that he wants to leave, so I'm sure there isn't a package. If there is, that's another horrible negotiation for the CSA.

Okay... To generalize this thread. Since we don't have an upcoming September window, who would be in your 23 today!

I prefer this than Biello or Griffin. I think it's the only one they can afford considering the circumstances.

Laryea became Laryea at TFC...remember his first call ups came as a result of his move. Osorio where else did he play? TFC gave him his first pro start.

What makes you think we could afford a coach with that pedigree? I rather more budget being available for more camps, then a glamorous coach. The most they could do is influence duals. I don't feel Ancelotti would revolutionize us.....(plus he's already going to Brazil)
