Dub Narcotic Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 1-0 loss at San Jose to start. Didn't watch the game but a loss at a western conference team is not the end of the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obinna Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 Nice to see them grab an away point today in New York. Not the best start to the season, but I am happy that Tabla has gotten minutes early in the year (none today though), as well as Jackson-Hamel, who came on late according to the match report. Bernier has played every minute I believe and looked very good today in the limited amount of time I actually watched this match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big_M Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 Yes but he wouldn't be getting much of a chance anyway at this point with 4-5 mids ahead of him. Hopefully he at least plays in the voyageurs cup and works his way in or goes to Ottawa to get playing time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moldy9 Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Hey Impact fans. I just put together a video montage dedicated to the Argentines of our team. Check it out. Like and share and if there's an Ultra please share on their webpage. Moldy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moldy9 Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 Funny. Impact Media posted yesterday this clip on the Argentine Quintet. A good April fools joke. Check it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moldy9 Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 Nice goals by Mancosu and Ballou Tabla. Also Basti scored in first game in MLS. IMO IMFC squandered 2 pts. Just looked disorganized. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dub Narcotic Posted April 8, 2017 Author Share Posted April 8, 2017 Video refereeing can not come to this league fast enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moldy9 Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 I couldn't agree more. That ref was seriously out to lunch or on the LAX payroll for basically gifting their much need win giving a straight red to Donadel on Jermaine Jones Academy Award Performance crying like a little baby and he didn't even get hit hard! Jones is another dishonest player piece of trash. Tabla got checked hard from behind by Nathan Smith and not even a yellow. Dos Santos is found to dive in the box and asked a penalty and he doesn't even card him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dub Narcotic Posted April 8, 2017 Author Share Posted April 8, 2017 There's an interesting debate on reddit about this call. Some think Donadel threw an elbow into Jones' neck. The A-League used the video referee for the first time today to overturn a penalty non-call. MLS needs to roll this out next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moldy9 Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 Some pretty harsh words from Donadel on his Jermaine Jones Hollywood Experience. Check the video out. http://www.tvasports.ca/2017/04/08/on-est-tout-pres-de-hollywood---marco-donadel I remember Jermaine Jones to be some loose cannon and dishonest player from a USMNT match and last year in the playoffs with Colorado against Seattle if I'm not mistaken?

farrelld Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 Here is a link about the new improvements: http://www.impactmontreal.com/en/post/2017/04/10/significant-improvements-made-stade-saputo-experience Looks like there will be a lot more space to move around. Lots of TV screens underneath the stands. Also maybe the biggest thing is there are a lot more spots to order food and it looks like you can order food on tablets kind of like a McDonalds.

I think I heard the VAR will be tested out after the All-Star game, during the second half of the season. It has been a tough start for the Impact and it doesn't get any easier on saturday with Atlanta coming to town. The Impact play 5 of the next 7 at home if we can pick up 12-15 points out of the 21 available in that stretch I think I'd be happy. Not expecting a win this weekend but I am hoping for one.

Dub Narcotic Posted April 11, 2017 Author Share Posted April 11, 2017 The Impact are actually the worst team in the league right now by some of the advanced metrics but they have played a lot of games on the road and are historically slow starters.

So 3 million in improvements and they couldn't bother to improve the incredibly inadequate washroom facilities? I wonder how they even get licensed to operate a facility with that many people and so few washrooms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At BMO if I leave 5 minutes before half to go to the washroom and I still will not make it back in time for the start of the second half. It is ridiculous!

farrelld Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 Yea the washrooms are a joke but I don't even know how they'd be able improve them for a reasonable price. Only thing they might be able to do is add more of those tiny mobile ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moldy9 Posted April 11, 2017 Share Posted April 11, 2017 From what I read is they spent $3 million on esthetics under the stands on tvs, food concessions and the boutique increasing spacing. Wooptydoo. I know we can't say much about this stadium given that Saputo paid out of his pocket for it but honestly it looks somewhat dull and cheap. Definitely not one of those state of the art stadiums we are seeing come up in the league that impresses you. Just a bunch of stands thrown together. They could add a little more cosmetic touches to add to the ambiance like blue lighting under the plastic roof like many modern stadiums have. Just find Stade Saputo to be simple and bland which is inconsistent with the artistic imagination and creativity of Montreal. The Big O tower adds a lot to its charm but that's pretty much it.

Moldy9 Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Cheeky goal by Jackson Hamel with the back heel saving Biello and the Impacts bacon late in the 93'. Seriously they need to sharpen their passes and finishing in the final third. They had a man up and I felt for a team playing at home w no wins they weren't playing with enough intensity or sense of urgency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRM Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 Congrats on your first win of the season. Here is hoping it is the first of many. AJH FTW (literally!!!!!). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moldy9 Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 Yes he was able to get the nice cross into Jackson Hamel for the goal but seriously OYONGO NEEDS TO WORK ON HIS CROSSES. It's like he just doesn't care where he sends it, other times it doesn't even go far enough like my little daughter could kick further and at times he just doesn't put enough power. Geez it's so frustrating. And seriously Oduro is becoming frustrating to watch as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonovision Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 I didn't watch the match, but was Camara as poor as he always is when he's forced to fill in at CB? I like him fine as a RB but the middle doesn't suit him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unnamed Trialist Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 I only saw 2nd half, live on Eurosport, and Montreal was slow and predictable, but did a few things right. Had v good out wide play, got past their marks a few times, and then Jackson-Hamel in the exact right spot twice, first header very well taken. Proud of the guy. Bernier looked good as well, very fit and active. And Tabla, well he showed his youth but is daring and confident. For me, Mancuso, very bad today, a real dud. What's his problem?
