Yes, it would be good to have more RB depth in case all of the following players are injured at one time: Alastair Johnston Tajon Buchanan Richie Laryea Zachary Brault-Guillard Marcus Godinho Junior Hoillett (He's now getting time at RWB with Reading) Kadin Chung Kwasi Poku Noah Abatneh RS, HochelagaFC, NVsoccer and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruffian Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 I am past desperately hoping every foreign player playing in Canada switches to CanMNT. Even if they were slightly better than one of our first team regulars they'd have to be extremely passionate about playing for Canada for me to care. Even more passionate than an "anti Trudeau trucker" with a giant Canada flag on a 2x4 attached to their car. ADP10 and longlugan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One thing concerning this is that really for a while now there's never actually any guys who are young enough and last five years on a Canadian MLS team to gain citizenship. Not to mention that they may already be playing internationally for other countries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not like we're desperate but hey additional depth is good. Edited August 5, 2022 by PopePouri Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig11rm Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 I think Jake could play backup to Johnston as a RCB in a back 3. We don’t really have anyone else as similar but he’s definitely not as good 1v1 defending.. Obinna 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buchanan is a winger, specially with Laryea on the same wing. ZBG is not that good. Godinho lol. Hoilett is a winger. Chung, Poku and Abatneh I don’t know (Abatneh seems to play on the left). Depth would be good. He’ll turn 28 in October, could give us 4-5 good years. Edited August 5, 2022 by MauditYvon Sal333 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
An Observer Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 I would have thought Rudy Camacho would be a better option and he is probably eligible as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obinna Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 JN is not my favorite player, but theoretically if he gained Canadian citizenship and wanted to support our program, then why not? I do agree he could cover multiple positions, but I have my doubts he gets into our squad. Besides, I think Waterman has better feet and would be a better fit, but even he hasn't been able to crack the national team yet. Camps yes, but getting that first cap has eluded him.

The player first need to have talent..and needs to give us hope. Nerwinski???? Would he be above ZBG or Godinho who cant get into camps/games?? Plus arent there all those rules about the offseason etc, so much time in canada over the 5 years etc?? Just playing for a CDN team doesnt automatically make you eligible.

MauditYvon Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 He would be 4th behind Laryea, ZBG and Godinho. 5th is you put Johnston in the mix. Would also be the oldest of that group. But why not, if he feels Canadian? There’s nothing wrong about bumping this thread, no one said he should be called up for Qatar. I didn’t knew he could probably acquire citizenship this year, glad someone told me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
