nolando Posted August 14, 2012 Author Share Posted August 14, 2012 Didn't see this mentioned anywhere but it looks like REB wasn't called for this: Bruce Harding @BruceHardingTFC @Randoll17 Shame you didn't get called up, but I'd imagine it's becaure you're in Germany! 10 Aug Randy Edwini-Bonsu @Randoll17 @BruceHardingTFC don't seem to be in their plans so I have other plans and I'm happy where I am right now. Hope the young guys get to play (As I said a few months ago, I have a bad feeling about REB's future with Canada. I hope I'm wrong though.)

Sam Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 My starting XI would be: ---------------------Hirschfeld-------------------- --Ledgerwood---Jakovic---Hainault--Jazic---- -----Johnson-----Bernier----De Guzman------ ---Ricketts-----Cavallini------De Jong--------- With lots of changes for the second half, finishing with: -------------------Borjan---------------------- --Ledgerwood--Henry--Hainault---Jazic-- -----Dunfield----Bernier/JDG---Pacheco----- ---Ricketts----James-------Teibert------- Give everyone in the camp some playing time, while keeping the guys who actually will play against Panama in their proper positions and giving many of them 90 minutes (Ricketts, Hainault, Jazic, Ledgerwood, Bernier/JDG). I think whoever Hart thinks has the better chance of starting against Panama out of JDG or Bernier should get the full 90. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThiKu Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 The REB situation is just weird. The guy early supports Canada and his buddies from here. Played with passion in u23 as well. Playing a good level and gives Canada something different up front. How are we not bending over backwards to get him involved? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are Hart and Fonseca pissed at him for the RC he got at the Olympic Q's? Or is he reading too much into not being selected? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keegan Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 I don't get it either. Are Hart and Fonseca pissed at him for the RC he got at the Olympic Q's? Or is he reading too much into not being selected? Either way, they should at least talk to him to clarify. Maybe they thought it would be best for him to get into his first team, I wouldn't disagree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keegan Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 BBC says this game has been suspended until the 16th? http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/fixtures That would be good imo, an extra day of training for the group and rest for those who played on the weekend.

nolando Posted August 14, 2012 Author Share Posted August 14, 2012 BBC says this game has been suspended until the 16th? http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/fixtures As if playing a B-Team in a park without official attendance wasn't quaint enough, they are reporting on the socawarriors site that, "Admission is Free but they are taking up a collection/passing the hat for those in attendance to support the ladies under 17." http://www.socawarriors.net/forum/index.php?topic=57549.30 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olympique_de_Marseille Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 BBC says this game has been suspended until the 16th? http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/fixtures NO! It has not! It is going to be played at 1am on the 16th UK time. Minus 5 hours to get Eastern Standard Time. So 8pm on the 15th in Florida. EDIT: It says "postponed" because they moved it later in the evening causing it to be moved past 7pm EST (therefore midnight UK time & therefore changing the date for them) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keegan Posted August 14, 2012 Share Posted August 14, 2012 It's amazing where T and T was 6 years ago and now... They haven't even qualified for the last 2 Gold Cups and were eliminated in a group of minnows this past WCQ. If we can't get a comfortable result here questions will be asked. The team needs to learn how to dominate a match and put the ball in the net. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beyond the established order of USA/Mexico those next 1.5 spots really are anyone's game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nolando Posted August 15, 2012 Author Share Posted August 15, 2012 The key question is who is going to put the ball in the net? Ricketts would be my best guess. And Bernier on a PK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think that's really a question exclusive to this friendly, that just seems to be a question with every match we play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xabuep2 Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Why this game does not appear as an official match in FIFA page ? http://es.fifa.com/associations/association=can/index.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul-collins Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 Good question. It's listed on CONCACAF's page... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TFCRegina Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 The game was incorrectly put in the last FIFA rankings and was never recorded (or at least it was on the widget). I assume the error is related to that but who knows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
