Jeremy Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 Anyone planning on attending tonight's match between the Montreal Impact Academy and the U17 NT? 8.30 pm @ Centre Sportif Bois de Boulogne. I'll be there to see who's our future brightest star. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeremy Posted July 31, 2010 Author Share Posted July 31, 2010 Honestly, not really. I thought the forwards were really small, not able to battle for aerial balls that's for sure, especially #7 (anybody knows the name?) The U17 seemed to use a 4-3-3 formation, so if I'm correct the lineup was like this: Crépeau - Seymour, Gasparotto, Benomar, Polakiewicz - Mmunga, Alderson, Cain - Aleman, Morris, Hamilton The Academy looked better overall, probably due to chemistry and that they were older. The NT had trouble launching attacks, all the long balls forward ended up out of play. They looked to have trouble communicating too, so they couldnt string together more than 3 passes. But that was my first U17 game ever so maybe next time I can evaluate better! here are a few other pics, the ones I managed to get right (somehow). My sport photo skills aren't exactly sharp yet.

Thanks for the info. Sounds like a freakin' disaster with the U17's, the coaching staff should be getting these kids playing the right way and not launching aimless long balls...shameful.
