Now, start talking about baseball and that's a different story... I'm hoping for the outside chance we draw them in the WCQ prelim. round in June, i really liked Nicaragua on my visit earlier this year. Plus, the risk of bodily harm cheering for Canada down there is minimal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mpok Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 In my opinion this tournament is very important for Canada, but why even waist time and money qualifying if we still have no team or coach and US team is already getting ready and has few friendlies in China.

footballfreak Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 http://www.concacaf.com/view_article.asp?id=4064 "Group A, which will play first round games at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Florida, has Cuba, Honduras, Panama, along with the hosts, USA. Group B, that will have encounters at The Home Depot Center in Carson, California, consist of the defending CONCACAF Champion, Mexico, along with Canada, Guatemala and Haiti."

loyola Posted December 18, 2007 Author Share Posted December 18, 2007 So, Mexico, always strong. Guatemala has a pretty strong side as well as Haiti. It will be a tough task for our team. The fact we're playing in Carson might not help getting some release from european clubs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ed Posted December 18, 2007 Share Posted December 18, 2007 Best possible draw for us I would say. Mexico had a very strong U20 but I would rather face them than the USA at home right now. Guatemala and Haiti are not at the same level. We might need a coach though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, considering the determining game is the 1/2 and that in both cases (USA or Mexico) our best chances would be 2nd place, I would've prefered playing the US in the group stage and then facing Mexico in Nashville in the 1/2. I agree, a coach would help and let's hope for a January camp (maybe with the Senior team) and 1 or 2 friendlies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpg75 Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Mexico is far from running away with this group. Their group of 85/86's failed to qualify for the 2005 WYC which means the underage team that fared so well this summer will be supplying the bulk of talent if they make it to China. They'll be missing half their team since i assume they won't be released from their clubs, these include; Gio Dos Santos, Carlos Vela, Jose Guardado and Ifrain Juarez.

Free kick Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Gotta agree. Its a good draw for Canada. One surprise result against Mex and you never know. Although, we know of dates and times, they didn't announce the group fixtures and matchups. It would a bigger bonus to get Mex right from the get go. Greater chance to catch them napping. But then again, the Los Angeles might as well be a home game for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpg75 Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 True, but if we get on them early and don't let them get in a groove the home crowd might turn on them. We've done reasonably well against the Mexicans at the U20 and U23 level recently. The PanAm games match in '99, and the '97 and '05 WYCQ games show we're capable of getting a result at this level (win or draw). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
