Players you expect to see in the CPL

[Bison44 4,369]

I'm sure the 200 USL teams are a bit of a problem/competition when it comes to recruitment.  We know that some of the top independent USL teams pay pretty good as they attract boderline MLS players.  But we had good quality ball in season one of CPL AND a bunch of our guys stayed with bigger USL clubs...best of both worlds if you ask me.  Some guys who arent getting PT...why stay?? Ucello, Kacher, Aleman, come on home, there will prob be spots for you.   Much like TFC in their initial years, some of the CDN CPL players werent up to snuff, but the pretenders have been shown out and it'll be better in year 2. 

Plus I'm hoping a few more MLS kids stuck in purgatory get a new lease on life with loans (Hundal, Srbely).

I would have expect this type of player:

Sebastien Cibois, free, was 4th keeper at PSG and going to sign as a 3rd keeper with Stade Brestois

theres plenty of good Canadian keepers even at semi pro and university levels..no need to use an international spot for that

True but international players may have a potential of transfer in Europe and league shining

Holy cow, there is a shocker!!  Larson must have come up with that tweet!  Seriously..you cant even name names??  I guess we should be thankful they arent throwing around Suarez or Balotelli as possible signings like MLS.

^ As depressed as being an Ottawa Fury fan is these days, I'm happy to see the guys find new spots to ply their trade.

not him

 

[SadOnMondays 36]

^ good for Hamilton, but I'm more than a bit surprised. They must have resigned him at a lower number.

It is revealed in this article that Koch has signed a player from Vancouver to his USL Colorado Spring's side. The player is a previous MLS trialist? Who could it be? Ben Fisk?

The player ended up being former San Jose draft pick Mamadi Camara:

Yes please!

Whitecaps are light by two LB's. Could see them and certainly his agents being interested with CPL as backup. He was reportedly very very close to signing with Valour before Colo Colo brought him back.

For his time in Edmonton... Does he have his passport? How could this be?

After seeing Babouli and Borges playing together in the outdoor vs indoor Pro's game. I really want to know why a team hasn't picked up Babouli?

Do a search on it Shway, there was a whole discussion years ago about Fordyce and Watson, getting their permanent resident paperwork done when they were with the eddies and whether they could make the CMNT.

His team in Syria still won't release him from his contract - holding up his career

Aidan Daniels, who I thought might end up with York or Halifax, signs with Colorado Switchbacks.
