Addona Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 ^ He should, one of our few keepers actually playing (although not recently). Larsen also reporting Osorio, Bekker, Henry and Morgan will be called, with Henry and Osorio likely turning down the call to concentrate on the TFC playoff push. Disappointing if true. So, basically, we are going to play Jamaica with our best 18, minus 15 of our best 18 ... we are so not getting that top 12 CONCACAF spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Osorio and Henry turning down a call for a game in TORONTO!? Listen Nelsen it's not Canada's fault you're an incompetent manager and it's not Canada's fault you don't have cover in your squad for inevitable call ups that will come. If Osorio and Henry missing one game is going to cause TFC to miss the playoffs then we don't deserve to make it. Floro is treating this game as a competitive match and you're turning down a call in your home city? What a joke. Hopefully it's not true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
narduch Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 I agree Keegan. MLS: helping Canada get worse since 2007. It will be total bullshit if Henry and Osorio don't play the friendly that doesn't conflict with any TFC games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TFC07 Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 I hope soccer media will have the balls to call out Nelsen/TFC if Henry and Osorio decide not to play because playoffs (LMAO!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What soccer media though? American fan boy Kurt Larson? He'll be secretly happy. John Molinaro? His top priority is becoming good friends with managers and bragging on twitter about their friendship so he won't be calling out Nelsen. Is Rudi going to do it? The only person who will call out anyone is Jason De Vos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Champs Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 This is my team based on current form, playing level, past performances. We need to start thinking about the future when we have these types of camps. Also 18 players is such a small number to go with, bring in 23 players so you can identify new talent and provide younger players the experience. 1-4-3-3 =================================Hischfeld==================================== Ledgerwood=========Edgar=========================Jakovic===============de Jong ==================================Osorio====================================== ===================== Hutchinson===========Johnson============================ ======Edwini-Bonsu===========================================Ricketts========= ==================================M.Haber===================================== Subs: Fraser Aird Tesho Akindele Lucas Cavallini Russell Teibert Charlie Trafford Roger Thompson Roberto Stillo Quillan Roberts Kyle Bekker Doneil Henry Michael Petrasso Maxim Tissot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Double standards. Or because they made the World Cup it's okay? What if Bloom or Morrow were to be called? No chance TFC would hold them back.

Levi Oakey Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Sounds like there are a number of clubs unwilling to release players, and players not interested in coming. This is looking bad on Floro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David C. Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 I really hope that the CSA digs its heels with MLS on this one. MLS' decision to not respect the international calendar should be MLS' issue, not the CSA's (or any other nation's). Fact is that we desparately need wins (by fieldIing strong teams), to improve our ranking before qualifying seeds are set. Doing MLS teams a favour shouldn't be put on our shoulders (while other nations get their players released). MLS looks bush-league on this issue, in my eyes.

Obinna Posted August 28, 2014 Author Share Posted August 28, 2014 I think Floro needs to be less diplomatic at this stage. We are too close to GC 2015 for this nonsense. This is a FIFA date and for us not to be getting TFC players for a game in Toronto is UNACCEPTABLE. The club plays at BMO on the 6th against Philly and then doesn't play again until the 13th in Chicago. In what world does Nelsen or Henry/Osorio think that will negatively impact their playoff push??? Like I have said before, it will be VERY interesting to see if Jamaica are missing any MLS players in the play off hunt. So without further ado, I will present my "watchlist" Darren Mattocks - Vancouver Je-vaughn Watson - Dallas Alvas Powell - Portland Donavan Ricketts - Portland Andre Blake - Philadelphia Deshorn Brown - Colorado *Jermain Taylor - Houston Dynamo *Jason Johnson - Houston Dynamo *Depends on whether or not you have written off Houston.

Keegan Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 I have a feeling Hutchinson won't be there just because this is a comedy of errors. In other news: The USMNT has called NCAA player Jordan Morris for their latest roster.. while Cyle Larin can't make it for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
