Lord Bob Posted December 19, 2014 Share Posted December 19, 2014 If he came cheap Paulo Junior is a good reclamation project but boy oh boy it's been a few years since he did anything. A rough second year with Salt Lake, never even a sniff in Vancouver, sucking the hind teat in Fort Lauderdale, injuries, fitness worries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

masster Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 I guess this moves Phil Davies down the depth chart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuart.mac Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 I guess this moves Phil Davies down the depth chart. Ya I think we can expect Oliver to be resigned soon and have Jr, and Oliver on the wings with Tommy up front, although I really do hope we find another CF, as much as I love Tommy I feel if we had a stronger CF to partner him (instead of Dantas) we could have done a lot better. I personally believe Davies may not be automatic for next year, the club may not even offer him a contract Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yothat Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Doesn't ottawa need to have a minimum amount of canadians on the team? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackdude Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Doesn't ottawa need to have a minimum amount of canadians on the team? I don't think that there is a minimum amount that has been said publicly for NASL teams. I could be wrong, but it's more because the CSA felt that it's not needed, because every team in NASL will sign and play multiple Canadians. It was the case before and it is still now. Ottawa has right now 1 Canadian signed and 5 more who were there last year who haven't been told no yet officially. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ironcub14 Posted December 22, 2014 Author Share Posted December 22, 2014 Two more Canadians today, good stuff! Americans count as domestics, and I haven't heard of a minimum number of Canadians rule. The one rule that everybody pays attention to is that there are 7 foreign player spots, of which 4 are taken so far, and 2 more are likely to be taken by Oliver and Woodbine, if they re-sign. They were 2 of our best players.

stuart.mac Posted December 23, 2014 Share Posted December 23, 2014 Under NASL rules both Canadian and American players are considered domestic, there isnt a minimum you need to have, instead as Ironcub said there is a max on non-domestic players meaning it encourages majority domestic players on a roster.

Blackdude Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 From the Marc Dos Santos interview with Marc Tougas on la90eminute http://www.la90eminute.com/les-resolutions-2015-de-mds/ Ubiparipovic should be back next year Expect Ottawa to sign more veterans. Expect Ottawa to have less Canadians. Dos Santos has said that the club is not a charity and that he wants to win. He said "What will make the fans more happy? Miss the playoffs and playing tons of Canadians or winning the championship with foreigners?" Waiting for the obligatory #FuryFChatesCanada from Lord Bob at any time.

Was surprised Carl Haworth didn't produce last year. In my opinion, the Fury's Canadian players are sub par compared to Edmonton's (Hanson Boakai, Eddie Edward, John Smits, Mallan Roberts etc). I don't blame Dos Santos at this point in time. Although Ottawa always has the option to develop some good players, or pay for some better Canadian players.....

shermanator Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 From my vantage, I don't necessarily like hearing that having and playing Canadian talent is a charity. Assuming talent levels are equal, as long as Ottawa pick the Canadian over the international that viewpoint is okay, but I am concerned that the international will be picked over the Canadian talent (assuming equal ability) every time. Hopefully the Fury's academy can start identifying, developing, and then promoting local talent to the first team. Does anyone know where they are planning to play in 2015? I could not tell from their website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red and White Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Does anyone know where they are planning to play in 2015? I could not tell from their website. It should still be Lansdowne Park / TD Place. I do agree with the sentiment of Canadians should have the advantage if equal to international players. I don't blame Marc if he brings quality players who fill roles better Canadians, as long as opportunities for local players don't start getting hindered because the club would rather sign journeyman US players. I haven't seen anything to indicate trouble for Canadian players just yet, so I'm hopefull the Fury can keep developing local talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dub Narcotic Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Didn't Edmonton have only two Canadians in the starting lineup by the end of last year as well? Good thing MLS is around for Canadian players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackdude Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 He didn't use the word charity per se, but he said "We arent FC Mother Theresa" . NASL has 7 international spots, so unless you can find Mericans better willing to come, you'll have Canadians here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shermanator Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 Didn't Edmonton have only two Canadians in the starting lineup by the end of last year as well? Good thing MLS is around for Canadian players. Really, none of the 5 pro teams are starting enough Canadians for my liking, but here are the numbers. - Edmonton had 64 starting appearances by Canadians: Edward (21), Smits (20), Roberts (12), Nonni (11), Jonke (9), Boakai (2), Jalali (1), Mortotsi (1), Farago (1) - Ottawa had 90 starting appearances by Canadians: Trafford (26), Beckie (19), Davies (16), Haworth (15), Mayard (7), Estaquio (4), Fresenga (3) Compare that to the MLS teams: - Toronto had 64 starting appearances by Canadians: Osorio (24), Henry (19), Bekker (13), DeRo (4), Issey (2), Morgan (2) - Montreal had 48 starting appearances by Canadians: Bernier (20), Ouimette (12), Tissot (7), Issey (5), Gagnon-Lapare (3), Jackson-Hamel (1) - Vancouver had 23 starting appearances by Canadians: Teibert (22), Adekugbe (1) Smits and Edward Roberts were the regular starters for FC Edmonton in 2014. Roberts was regular near the end as well. Not knowing the complete roster for Edmonton I would predict that Smits' number of starts will be reduced with the signing of van Oekel. Roberts should go up based on his performance to end 2014, as by the end of the year he started 6 of the last 7. I can see Nonni and Jonke starting a similar number of games and if Boakai stays his number will increase. Regarding Ottawa, to my knowledge only Trafford and Haworth are still around from 2014, so that is a big old question mark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackdude Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 If you count Roberts, you should count Lefèvre as a Canadian, IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shermanator Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 That is a fair point. Okay so Lefevre had 13 starts as well bringing Montreal to 61 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
