piltdownman Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 We are pushing for the title and we loan one of our players to TFC? We already play Friday and Sunday, and now he is going to play Saturday too? WTF? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpg75 Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 Carver is hopeful of adding two players to the squad for this weekend's game. Vancouver Whitecaps defender Diaz Kambere and former New York Red Bulls defender Tim Regan may be added to the roster. Regan is currently a scout for Toronto FC. What's next, Mo suiting up?

Tintin Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 When it gets to the point that they sign Graham Leggat for a match or two, I'll stop watching. I'd rather watch me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richard Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 quote:Originally posted by leafdolfan If I were a Caps fan this would really piss me off. Does he start for ou guys? Kambere has made nine appearances for the Whitecaps, including eight starts, in the 2008 USL-1 campaign for total of 683 minutes. This is his third season with the Whitecaps.

nolando Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 heck, seign Forrest and Devos to one week contracts or something too - it was just a laugh a while back, but if regan can suit up then why not??? seriously, why not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calgary Boomer Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 When Peter Beardsley was in town last year, he was asked which player stood out. He immediately pointed out Kambere. He's brave, quick, and he has some bite to him. The Whitecaps are deep at Left back with Hirano, Kindell and Trafford all natural left sided defenders.

BringBackTheBlizzard Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 quote:Originally posted by jpg75 Wasn't he the guy we picked up in the expansion draft? He was. I watched quite a few of Chivas's games through online webstreams in the 2006 season and he didn't look that bad although he was never going to be mistaken for Franz Beckenbauer or Franco Baresi. If he's close to match fit he might wind up doing the job better than Julius James has been doing of late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gian-Luca Posted September 5, 2008 Author Share Posted September 5, 2008 Well TFC owes a big thank you to the Whitecaps for this. I think this is simply to replace what would have been Tyler Hemming's spot at right back for this game. My recollection of Diaz-Kambere from the Olympic qualifiers was that he was quick, marked decently but made a lot of inaccurate passes. Hopefully he's worked on that aspect of his game.

MikeD Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 I second the suggestion that TFC try to get Jason DeVos in for one match. That would be awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's fast as hell, but he doesn't have any footballing sense about him. He makes Lyle Martin seem like a pretty cultured fullback, which is scary as hell. Having said this, Dasovic seems to love the guy. He gave him at least two Olympic qualifying starts. Maybe he can see something in him? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bettermirror Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 No concern with this loan. 1 match for a player who isn't required by the Whitecaps. It looks good on the Whitecaps if they can loan a reserve player to TFC and if he puts in a good performance there then why can't the whole Whitecaps roster move up?

FutureStarCSL Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 no see thats just ridiclous when your scout is suiting up to play in a game when there is a league full of players from canada "csl" and there are 3 teams in the usl from Canada that play good soccer, when your scout is suiting up for a game you know there is sum serious problems with the team firstly, he should be at colleges in canada scouting players and giving suggestions to coaches of canada how to develop they players to an american standard style of play. I have received stuff from friends who had lived in canada that play in university in the states that show me there preseason schedule of what they're standard running is and what you schould be doing in what time and stuff and colleges in canada dont really have that same standards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
