Hawkguy Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 What would it be? Assume both Johnson and Hutchinson are healthy. Sorry if this isn't allowed! PS. Does anyone know if you can exchange Jays tickets? I was going to Toronto on Sept 4 for the weekend, and we got tickets to the Jays on the 4th and 5th. Hoping to exchange the 4th for 6th, so I can go to the Canada vs. Belize game. Ugh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northvansteve Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 Drop: Hirschfeld, Ouimette, Pacheco, Bekker, Simeon Jackson Add: Borjan, Doneil Henry, Atiba, Will Johnson, Hanson Boakai Occean instead of Haber? Sure, why not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
king1010 Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 I wouldnt drop haber. Hes good at what he does.(scoring in the air). Id add occean for someone though, perhaps a holding mid since floro likes sticking defenders in that position anyways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Haber isn't playing I drop him for Occean, if he's playing well then I'd probably drop Jackson even though it would take away wing depth.

Hawkguy Posted July 25, 2015 Author Share Posted July 25, 2015 Is there any chance Hume makes the squad? Or is he too far down the charts? I really, really liked Tissot against Costa Rica. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

squizz1402635577 Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 I see a few folks have mentioned Boakai. So I'm wondering -- do you want Boakai because you feel he's ready to step in and help the team, or because you just want us to cap-tie him so that he can continue to develop and we don't have to worry about it?

Northvansteve Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 I'd like to see Boakai because he brings an element of offensive flare and unpredictability that we don't have on the team. If we need a goal in the second half of a must-win game, who else would you bring on? Boakai creates openings and opportunities unlike anyone we have in the system now.

Hawkguy Posted July 25, 2015 Author Share Posted July 25, 2015 Floro will have to have a more offensive system in place with Hutch and Johnson... right? I still blame Hart for not just subbing the suspended Occean with Hume (or really any striker) way back in 2012. Would it have made a difference? Who knows.. but going for the draw really ticks me off unless it's a team that clearly outmatches you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He *did* replace Occean with a striker, Cavallini, who came into the game in the second half. (Given the scoreline at the time, no, it didn't make a difference, other than to cap-tie the kid.)

Obinna Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 We don't have dribblers hey Floro? Time to bring in Boaki and Petrasso.

Soccerpro Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 I'd argue for the inclusion of skilled dribblers like Petrasso etc, but it makes no difference because Floro doesn't value those players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, why not. Why drop Jackson, he didn't even get a chance in the gold cup. Drop ricketts and have him try out for a track and field team. Haber played well for us and doesn't deserve to be dropped, but yes bring on occean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackdude Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 Why drop Jackson, he didn't even get a chance in the gold cup. Drop ricketts and have him try out for a track and field team. Haber played well for us and doesn't deserve to be dropped, but yes bring on occean Because a) Jackson didn't impress to get playing time during the Gold Cup. Jackson plays for the Voyageurs' favourite club, Unattached FC c) What has Jackson brought to that national team ever? Seriously what has he done? d) What has Jackson done for his club during the past two years Going to Bundesliga where he played a couple of games and disappeared for a bad team going 6 months later to a bad Championship side and not gaining a starter''s job and rarely on the matchday squad for a League One team. e) As sad as it is, Tosaint Ricketts has been better than Simeon Jackson for our national team when both have been playing. I do think that a lot of people like Jackson, but don't see that. He's not the saviour people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmcmurph Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 Assuming we will still be playing the lone forward 4-5-1 (or whatever variant thereof 4-2-3-1 or 4-1-4-1, etc) we will need a holding forward. I don't think we need JDG for Belize nor do I think we need 3 keepers. So injuries willing here is what I would like to see. Forward (1): Larin, Occean, Haber Outside mids/wingers (2): Akindele, Ricketts, Jackson, Tissot, Bokai Core centre mids (2): Atiba, Johnson, Osorio, Pacheco Defensive mid (1): Straith, Peitte, Teibert Defenders (4): Edgar, Jakovic, Hainault, Henry, de Jong, Morgan Keeper (1): Borjan, Stama Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
