  • FIFA World Cup 2022 - Qatar

    • This reminds me of that double-edged aphorism:  "You've got nothing but potential!" 
    • I also don't see this as a bad thing. Assume for the moment that both the CPL and MLS continue to move up the international soccer league rankings and pay scale. If, in twenty years, we have three MLS teams with $40 to $50 million payrolls and a dozen or more CPL teams with $5 to $10 million payrolls I think that would actually position us very well to feed the national team.  (Obviously with a proportionately thriving L1 system and various paths to Europe.)
    • That's fine. The black IG story with inspirational quote only means he's having a tough time getting on the pitch. When the player posts a bible quote, that's when you know he's on the verge of getting loaned out to the 4th transnistrian division.
    • With the new Club World Cup, World Cup in America the MLS is not going to continue to be embarrassed like they have been with Miami on their tour or like them getting thrashed by Monterrey. Spending going way up and it will be tough for Canadian teams to keep up. They don't have the stadiums and the same business environment to do what American teams do. Should be interesting to watch what happens in the summer transfer window 
    • I think Sirois is listed at 6'0 no? CF Montreal posted a picture of their starting 11 from the game last week and he's standing beside Sosa (6'2) and Campbell (6'1) and looks a bit shorter than them. Hard to compare height since they could be standing differently, but I've always thought he was closer to 5'11 than 6'1. That's the only reason I think there's a chance he does cap out along the lines of Crepeau- solid MLS keeper who will either keep Montreal relatively competitive over the next decade or make his way to a contender at some point. If he was a comfortable 6'3-4 or something, I think it would be safe to book his ticket to europe this winter. Even 6'2 would make him an average sized keeper, and since his talent is definitely not average, I think he could really perform well overseas. You mention Patrick Roy- I see some Carey Price in him, especially young ~2011ish Price. You practically watch him in nets with your hands over your eyes because he's liable to let in a bad one in at any time, but he more than makes up for it with saves very few keepers should actually be able to make. Agreed on DSC. He's looked fine for Canada, but we're going on like nearly 2 years since he had an elite run of form at club. I think against Netherlands and France you need to go Crepeau for both and play your best possible starting XI, but I'd love to see Sirois tested against these types of world class talents.
