If I put my hands above my head, without jumping, I could scratch Peter Crouch's balding scalp. I'm 5'7", someday I hope I get the chance. dyslexic nam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taking all the skills of the position into consideration (including leadership) I thought he did a fantastic job in the GC. If something happens to Borjan, we won't skip a beat. maccaliam, Grandbloke, dyslexic nam and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WestHamCanadianinOxford Posted August 27, 2021 Share Posted August 27, 2021 Interesting format change this year. If you finish first in your group, you go straight to last 16. If you finish second, you go into a playoff with a 3rd place Champions League team. Unnamed Trialist, GasPed and king1010 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally don't think he was clearly at fault on any. Pacific got the bounces, used the intensity of the occasion and the crowd, and then took advantage of little bumbles by the Caps CBs and mids.

Seems they are back training and playing, see a match from yesterday on his IG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mostly agree with UT but he didn’t cover the near post very well on Heards goal. Overall this was PFCs win and not Crepeaus loss. In fact it could have been 6 or 7 were it not for Max.

Seems to be a fairly even group to me, not sure if Red Star or Braga are favorites here, but I could see any of these teams advancing. Like you say, they probably should get out, but I wouldn't bet the house on it. The Real Marc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frmr Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 Borjan showed why he's still our #1. Crepeau definitely 1B though. We've got two very good keepers. DavemTFC, WestHamCanadianinOxford, Ruffian and 10 others 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pottsy3 Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 I think I'd start Crepeau away in Nashville, but we need Borjan in those home matches. He's the passionate leader on the field, and he made sure BMO stayed loud last night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dyslexic nam Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 I will admit that I was one who was wondering if Crepeau may displace Borjan on the basis of his strong GC play. But last night Borjan was a beast. That diving header outside the box took some serious cajones and I don’t know if a less edgy keeper is even position to get there in time. And I think he got just enough of the late shot to push it onto the post. Hell, he was inches away from saving a pretty much perfect PK. There was some blame to go around in the result last night, but none of it goes on him. johnyb, Trois Reds, king1010 and 19 others 20 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeoH037 Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 Crepeau is good, but he doesn't command the box quite like Borjan does, and we really need more of that character going forward. Nate3322, king1010 and Corazon 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
