But that’s because they all do play for Canada so it would be a silly thing to claim.  The issue with Arfield is that he is playing at that level and isn’t - at a time when we could use him.     EDIT: just to add, imagine if Hutch was still playing regularly at Besiktas and had retired.  Or if one of the young guns decided they weren’t interested in playing for international footy for Canada anymore.   Or if a high caliber MLS vet like Oso retired from the Nats while we still needed him.  People would be just as adamantly clamoring for them to come back and support the team in the WC.  This isn’t some unique petition being applied to Arfield just because he is at Rangers - it is the same thing that would happen to anyone of his calibre who was in his position (ie. Could make a big contribution but was choosing not to).  

Yeah, I am skeptical it is that low.   

That's what I've seen quoted but I'm sure someone has the actual number.

$200k can’t be right?!

Seeing some USMNT Youtubers speculating that the USSF may approach Herdman post WC. The main thing they're sighting is that it seems Herdman's making 200k CAD with Canada right now. The US are currently paying Berhalter 1.2 Million USD. He could stand to get a huge raise. Herdman's said he wants to see the 2026 vision but at the same time if someone offers me a huge raise....

Sims plan if it even comes about would target 2026 so this shouldn't have an effect on the Langley location for CPL Vancouver and its 2023 start there. Down the road 4-5 years a move to Surrey may be an option if a suitable stadium actually comes about and is even needed. If your going to wait for politicians to come thru on their promises you may be waiting forever.

i bought some from amazon.. the panini adrenalyn 

Oy...I just realize how difficult the 2026 WC collection is gonna be...  With 32 teams x 20 stickers as a base, we are expecting 960 stickers ??? (48x 20) Also wonder how much it will cost assuming the price will continue to go up.

It all depends on how many international windows we get from now till 2026...FIFA hasn't confirm the schedule.  They usually release it every 4 years. Side Note - Qatar played one of the UEFA Qualifying Group to prepare to World Cup 2022.  Qatar to participate in European qualifying for 2022 World Cup | Sport (news24.com).   So hopefully we can get to do the same for upcoming Qualifiers.

Good article on Davies moving more centrally. Good for his development as a future attacker and CMNT https://www.bavarianfootballworks.com/2022/10/6/23386634/bayern-munich-fc-viktoria-plzen-champions-league-julian-nagelsmannn-alphonso-davies-canada-world-cup
