deschamp86 Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 JPG, I think I would rather something in the middle. If TFC was turning out that many Canadian players and not making the playoffs for 20 years, I don't imagine the calibre of players would be helping the CMNT a whole hell of a lot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macksam Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 This is Martin Rennie's career. He isn't going to jeopardize his odds of winning or reputation by sitting a quality player on the bench due to "bias." Then why is Tiebert on the bench and Thorrington playing? As for Tiebert not being ready enough, I call bull ****. He already proved he was ready last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If TFC was turning out that many Canadian players and not making the playoffs for 20 years, I don't imagine the calibre of players would be helping the CMNT a whole hell of a lot I was thinking these players would be mostly younger guys who would move on to European teams as they hit their mid-20's. TFC would essentially be a development/feeder team. Of course this is all hypothetical and just to show where my priorities are and not to be taken seriously.

Soccerpro Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 But John Thorrington brings vetern leadership! And he gets hurt a lot!! He played in Europe when he was younger!! I don't understand why the caps rate Thorrington. Obviously, I'm no Martin Rennie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThiKu Posted July 4, 2012 Share Posted July 4, 2012 You can't ask why Thor plays and Teib doesn't - they are totally different positionally. Right now Teibert is behind Salgado (injured), Sanvezzo, and to a degree even Mattocks, and SLT on that left flank - though indirectly. But how he is also behind Harvey and Nanchoff is completely beyond me. All that potential, and fitness, and work rate....it's a complete mystery. Guess he could be a huge douche?

Soccerpro Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Teibert on the bench today. Does he have compromising pictures of Rennie? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zephyr Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 ^ Ditto. I'd rather see TFC not make the playoffs for the next 20 years while starting 5 Canadians and having another 5 on the bench making semi-regular appearances with a steady stream of academy grads coming through then being a perennial MLS Cup contender with no Canadians on the field. I would rather see the CMNT make the World Cup than the Whitecaps take the MLS title ... but I also don't have millions of dollars on the line as an investor in an MLS club. Why this is so hard to understand is beyond me. If I coached, owned, or invested in an MLS club with your line of thinking, I'd shoot myself in the head prior to enduring those 20 years ... Purchase an MLS club, then play your sub par Canadians. Until then, enjoy your last place and stop complaining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few scrubs plucked off beer league teams could have "proven" themselves on that squad. Not even close. Also, it doesn't matter what the quality of the team was. You can tell how talented a player is by seeing how THEY play. Just from observation, anyone with a half a brain that knows anything about the game can tell he's much more talented than Salgado.

Also, don't reply back with your bull **** about how any team can win on any given day. I gaurentee we'll do it again soon enough in league play, especially in your own back yard.

The Beaver Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 You know that football has finally come to Canada when our national supporter forum turns into a nasty scrap over club teams!!! This is what we need: passion for our club teams. In time this passion will result in more and more high quality players for Canada. Screw you all, is what I am trying to say. Go Caps Go!!
