They most likely didn't release him, he's been starting the last few games and has been very good while some other attacking options like Tony Taylor have struggled. We're on track to turn the season around and Reid has definitely played an important role in that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olympique_de_Marseille Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 (edited) I say it at every Fury game, I will say it again online, he's on the verge of making MLS and, if fit, would be a lock for our next U23 Olympic qualifying team. He won't be with the Fury in 2019. The guy can dribble.

We could have a bunch of Canadian players getting regular time on a winning team. I hope Henry can get fit again and help continue this streak.

Im not super familiar with USL-MLS rules but I think you have to be an affiliate to do the seamless call up/send down. Ottawa is Montreal's affiliate, not Dallas' so I'd assume Reid's in Ottawa all year on a loan that works like any other loan in any league around the world.

Before TFC II came into existence TFC had to recall players from American USL teams during transfer windows since they were crossing a border to switch teams. It would be the same case going the other way (Canada to USA). BradMack 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuzzAndSting Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 Reid is legit. Watching Wednesday’s game and he’s dominating every possession he has as an 18 year old playing against men. The only thing holding him back from greatness is the shortcomings of his teammates.

If that is the case then Canada better cap him before Jamaica does since he is eligible to play for Jamaica through his parents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it is because of the fact that Jamaica could cap him and if they do he can actually turn out to be a special player for them. If we add him to our national team to our nucleus with Davies and other players then Canada could actually be a team for the future as far as 2022 potentially and or even 2026.

Keegan Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 Well with the World Cup 2026 a player would have to have no chance with us to jump to Jamaica. Best of luck to you if you wanna do that.. CNMNTPERUELIGIBLE 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best of luck to you if you wanna do that.. However, you never know because Jamaica could qualify from CONCACAF especially since there will be 48 teams for 2026. Furthermore, if that is the case he could very well play for them if he chooses to. However, it would make more sense for him to play for Canada but the CSA need to take a look at him and scout him first then don't they? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpg75 Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 Relax man the CSA already know about Reid, he has attended a few youth camps for us. I'm sure he'll be capped sooner than later. Shway 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soccer.shocker Posted June 16, 2018 Share Posted June 16, 2018 Reid will most certainly be called for U20 qualifiers in November. Herdman et al are well aware of him and presumably DeGuzman would be keeping the MNT staff up to date about the likes of Reid and Crepeau etc Kadenge, CNMNTPERUELIGIBLE, Grandbloke and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
honestseveran Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 The Canadian program is much more attractive than Jamaica right now. That was before we got the World Cup. CNMNTPERUELIGIBLE 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Attraction before the World Cup hmm...Strongly disagree. I've had this convo before with a fellow Canadian/Jamaican. Jamaica has more potential than us currently based on the mere fact that they have maybe triple the amount of fence sitters that we have.....plus they are back to back Gold Cup finalists with two completely different teams... Which is not only a testament to their depth... But it also shows they have performed better when it counts regardless of our record against them. They add either of Leon Bailey, Rolando Aarons, Andre Gray, Liam Moore... Etc..and its more game changing then us adding 19yo Tabla for example. Gotta know the simple facts before you throw out egregious comments. Canada is just better organized, which is a crazy statement to make.

Shway Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 (edited) Also to add, Reid isn't going anywhere. He has to be making a lot more noise than he is now or has to reach out to the JFF personally. A lot of Jamaicans say their league (RPSL) is on par or better than the USL... And even still there are tons of average to mediocre Jamaican strikers in the USL/MLS and lower leagues in the world. Reid isnt going anywhere. Edited June 17, 2018 by Jahinho Guerro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The mere fact that they have triple the amount of fence sitters does not mean the program is attractive. Their lack of investment into infrastructure, coaching and stadia is much worse than ours, and it's causing fence sitters to rethink their decision. It was for Hoilett and it's now for Bailey. For an developing player like Reid, it's better to stay in a program that's actually developed decent youth prospects like Tabla and Davies, than to move to a program that hasn't developed a top tier level youth in a while. It's not like I don't about their player pool but it is not as deep at it was. Their team is aging badly. If you look at what's better for Reid and his development, which I'm doing, it makes a lot of sense.

I mean if Reid commits himself to Canada then it is yet another teenager who can be a future star for Canada considering Davies their other teenager is basically playing daily in MLS for Vancouver. Reid where does he play now? Ottawa Fury but on loan from FC Dallas in MLS. Well if he is that good enough could he earn a Canada call up eventually? Yeah he could but as long as he continues his development. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
