Club Linesman Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 No one on the field, or should I say no Canadian, looked of international quality in that game. It was a major disappointment from the TFC perspective, as well as the CMNT. Watching the two games back to back really exhibited the difference in quality between TFC "2" and the two solid MLS teams in the late game. Ottawa/Toronto had a division 3 feel to it and the Montreal Vancouver game looked like a top level MLS game. I really hope the field and underestimating the opponent were a big reason why Chapman, Osorio, Edwards,... et al had such shockingly poor games.

The beauty of single entity. The "league" consisting of many cheapskate owners can unilaterally force TFC to release the guys they're paying $6M/year. We've already put up with two consecutive years of Bradley being released early for both the Gold Cup and Copa America and then proceeding to miss an additional league game after elimination to play the 3rd place match. If I remember correctly he was injured in last year's 3rd place match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's because USMNT games are run by SUM, which is an MLS marketing arm. As I said upthread, if CanMNT was making money for MLS like USMNT (and Mexico, when they play in the U.S.) does, you'd see the exact same treatment. Copa America Centenario was also a SUM-organized tournament. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Argile Posted May 29, 2017 Share Posted May 29, 2017 A couple quick questions from a Voyageurs newbie: I ordered tickets and a Voyageurs T-Shirt in April. Will I receive electronic versions of the tickets? What are my chances of getting the T-Shirt before the match? Thanks. I'm looking forward to cheering on the CMNT in the supporter's section.

Guest Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 So is Tabla a no go? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obinna Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 Very disappointing if true. Very disappointing not to have AJH also. His exclusion muddys the waters. Had he been selected, and had Tabla been the only Impact player absent, we would have a better idea of Tabla's commitment level. Now it is unclear if Montreal requested him to stay or he simply is remaining uncomittal. Regardless, we should have a strong group. Spoon may be there, which is a nice addition that I have personally overlooked in recent weeks in light of the Davies/Tabla/Edwards hype trains. No reason why Arfield shouldn't be there. Hoilett is already in Toronto, so I'm assuming he's good to go. Still optimistic about Cavallini. New blood in Cardova. Larin being a key piece will be involved I assume. Plenty to get excited about.

shermanator Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 I will say that there are no surprises at forward for me. Larin, Ricketts, Haber and Jackson-Hamel are the top 4 in the depth chart right now in my books. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obinna Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 Awuah is an interesting choice. Zambrano must have seen what we saw with that selection. The squad really does have an experimental feel to it though. I can't imagine this is our best team heading into Gold Cup, but rather one last chance to see who can make a case for themselves.
