The worst of something like 72 teams. How is that a good source of players? Even Thunder Bay would be a better source.

Big_M Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 not necessarily a good source but wouldnt be surprised if they do that as its almost preseason time and season in three months..in 2018 they were even worse losing all 14 games and ohin and budhoo were on that team..in 2019 artemenko and budhoo played with them Lofty 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thunder Bay seems to be very well run and has a long and rather distinguished history in PDL/USL. I have no idea about the team, but if you have not won a game in 2 years, in PDL, that is a problem. Often rivals have come in on brutal travel schedules, you should be able to wear them down.

He played during the summer for Kaw Valley, the Sporting KC affiliate, so faced WSA twice this past season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were relegated. After Manny went up to third tier Izarra, Piette's old team, and Misik sort of moved laterally. So he must have close contacts with Aparicio still, which might also suggest a possible destination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the better Winnipeg born players don’t want to play for the team bc of the way it’s run and the coaching. The players though are constantly fighting with each other and the coaches. Seems like a very toxic atmosphere. I seen the kaw valley side play last year they were a good side.

Bison44 Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 So instead of getting better for CDN, its getting harder??? And there is always some people who wonder why a lot of us have, lets say "mixed feelings" about MLS. They wont ever change the rule in MLS to make everyone domestic now. This will be payback for FIFA/CSA not letting Ottawa stay in USL. If its true... fuck those guys and the horse they rode in on.

There are no more Canadian teams in the league and now there is the CPL, Canadians should be considered international players. The same way Americans in the CPL should be considered international players. Winnipeg Fury, NVsoccer, BFBF and 8 others 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toontownman Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 It's not the USL or MLS remit to develop Canadians, regardless of having 3 canadian Clubs in the MLS. Are US players counted as internationals in CPL? You could probably argue this move helps support the CPL and pushes Canadians back to the CPL to help the league grow. Its only an issue if the USL wages are significantly higher, that blocks Canadians opportunities but still not US soccer's problem. It frees up space for more US players to come through at USL clubs. The MLS could also easily say you have a league and TFC VWC and Montreal should play there. They wont do that though as they are great cash cows and also make the league look bigger. If they were in the CPL the CPL would start looking like viable competition. That will likely happen eventually though if CPL ever manages to close the gap in quality and size. Right now it benefits Canada to have teams in the MLS, not so much USL. CANMNT_SUPERFAN 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Winnipeg Fury Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 This will further strengthen CPL, as Canadian talent from south of the border comes home. CANMNT_SUPERFAN, toontownman and Bbeto 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why should Canadians be counted as domestic in the USL Championship when there are exactly zero Canadian teams in that league? It makes no sense, as does getting upset over it.
