François Posted May 20, 2005 Share Posted May 20, 2005 We'll see how Ali can cope with the fact that he should be the 3rd forward. Sebrango and Wilson are the starters and Nick will probably bring Ali from the bench. It's a different situation here. It's no secrets that Bob Lilley did not like him and his attitude in the locker room when he was here left to be desired. He's not bigger than the team...

Impact supporter Posted May 20, 2005 Share Posted May 20, 2005 I'm suprised re: Francois and Matondo transfer. I only hope that Ali Gerba(N'Gon) will get more playing time here and not have what happened under Bob Lilley. If the Impact really wanted to develop LOCAL talent, why did they not trade Adrian Cann or Darko Kolic?? Just a thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Francois (the other one) and Taty we're not playing. They will in Toronto. We had a surplus of defenders when we signed Cann, we could let Francois go. And for Taty, well, if you saw him in camp, you could see he wasn't ready to play in the USL... As for Darko, I still don't know why he's still with the team. Maybe because he's involved with Impact soccer camps during the summer... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanKeay Posted May 20, 2005 Share Posted May 20, 2005 Is Francois still injured? In the montreal report they say that he has never gotten fit from an injury last year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
François Posted May 20, 2005 Share Posted May 20, 2005 He is ready to play. He was on the bench Sunday and warmed up towards the end of the game but never played. But he's not in game shape yet. As for Taty, he has so much speed, he needs to learn what to do with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Impact Posted May 20, 2005 Share Posted May 20, 2005 few random thaughts 1) On the trade; Im thinking that Belotte will be signing with the lynx in the very near future, I reckon the lynx dump some salary cause Gerba had to be their highest paid player, and pick up 2 brothers who might pick up the pace, for the price of one. As a throw in they get a pretty good defender....id compare him to serioux who was mentioned earlier in the thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Lynx trade their best player for a couple of no names, well the LYNX are consistent if nothing else, there's no wonder they can't compete when they do silly things like this.

Daniel Posted May 20, 2005 Share Posted May 20, 2005 Beast, you're supposed to be gone, remember? I think people are slamming the deal because no one outside Montreal knows François. François is a GREAT central defender who will make a strong dreaded-duo with Titus. The problem with François was that he was 3rd in the pecking order behind Gervais and Pizzolitto since 2002 (and they're two of the best in the league) and was injured last season. You guys'll be surprised. As for Taty, I think that with some more regular playing time, he'll dazzle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loud Mouth Soup Posted May 20, 2005 Share Posted May 20, 2005 You know what Beast? For someone who said they were giving up on the Lynx (like you supported them in the first place), and they were no longer worthy of your time and energy, you sure spend a lot of time and energy yakking about them in these threads.

Yes i did actually, i got one of their god awfull purple jerseys and did go to a few of their games,so that does give me the right to go after them full throttle. Bruno said he was glad the Toronto stadium failed, this coming from someone who on their own web page says they are out to promote Canadian soccer. So the Lynx are open targets this season. Also the Lynx said they had 3300 and change for their opener, you can't get that many into that park, more inflated attendance figures from the Lynx....shocking.
