I don't see that as a compliment 

given the roster we're fielding, it's just a bit odd, their expectations must've been incredibly low

2nd half debut for Leutwiler!

 

I hope Findlay told him it's just like playing on a cold Wednesday night at Bury.

I'm surprised how many people know who De Jong is.

Two of the Koreans play at Augsburg.  DeJong played at Augsburg?

[Coramoor]

I love Aird's accent, it's all over the place now

[Gian-Luca]

Well, this sucks, the MLS site said the game started at 7am EST, I woke up an hour too late. Great f-bomb just now by Fraser Aird "How many fucking times man!" to the linesman

[Obinna]

Will this match be archived on the YouTube page? I only have an iPad and don't want to go through the trouble of downloading it.

[biospherian]

Lee Yong Pyo (former Whitecaps player) is casting the game. He made a joke about Aird that I cannot understand..

[Olympique_de_Marseille]

"How many fuckin' times man!" We hear you Aird. We hear you.

[Kibby]

Carl!

[biospherian]

Ok now this 24 is a player to watch out for.

[Kibby]

Haworth, Tissot, De Jong.. feels like a Fury game,, where's Dixon?

Yeah proud of the boys.  But it's also not a good sign when we have so many Fury players going up against a really good national opposition.

[Coramoor]

huge save by Leutweiler

[Markus]

It would really make my day if I could hear a Canada goal called in Korean

[Fort York Redcoat1555362293]

So they get the ground game and we'll keep it in the air? jk

As long as we get a couple more corners like that.

[Coramoor]

After the first 15 minutes I thought it was a pretty decent game, Edgar's mistake aside. Offense looked half decent, a few good chances, Bustos needs to learn to pass a bit earlier but he's definitely got skill, Aird was fantastic.

Edgar and James just don't partner well; I don't know what it is.

[biospherian]

Well, now that this is over, how will our FIFA ranking change?

[gator]

We settled in nicely and with a bit of fortune may have got a result, I like Bustos' work rate, Aird looked fairly solid, Haber never quit despite lack of service and it looks like we have a nice addition to our Keeper pool!

[Floortom]

As expected really. 

Bustos and Aird were the only players who showed any skill on the ball. Haber way too slow and indecisive as he had a few opportunities. The rest generally just don't belong on the pitch against a decent international side so nothing too surprising.

Agree! Jakovich and Vittoria looked much better!

Going forward he was solid; he still finds himself in the wrong place at the wrong time when he has to defend. He should be a winger but we really lack quality options at the back.

[Complete Homer]

I only caught the last chunk, we looked fairly slow and out of sync. Like that the whole game?

The first half hour was really bad, you saw our best spell!
