PopePouri Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 If we're not basing it on promise, we're looking at his form in the CPL, and I'm sorry but he's not even a top 3 winger. Petrasso, Borges, and Pasquotti are ahead of him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Petrasso, Borges, and Pasquotti are ahead of him. For me it was never about promise - he's older than each of those players. It was his left foot, speed, and strength that were attractive. And just because he is not in your top 3 doesn't mean he's a lower class of player or something. Borges, Petrasso, Telfer, Pasquotti are all roughly the same level in that each is important to their current team. T&T saw something in him anyhow. I bet he's going to earn some hefty time with them in this cycle, and as one of the teams who may also go the non-hex route, that makes me nervous. You know how the soccer gods do - they can be very cruel. Edited September 4, 2019 by Obinna Shway 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise i agree 100%. I always wish the other team good luck. It's just common courtesy. That doesn't mean I don't plan on destroying them once the game starts.

Aird25 Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 Telfer is a good player, but I don't think he was ever near our national team. He plays in what is probably our strongest position. He has the talent to burn us in the future, but that doesn't make Canada's squad selection wrong red card 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few self serving/promotional tidbits herdman threw out about looking at some CPL players?? I seriously doubt that he got invited to camp, Look at the reaction on this page when Shway suggested Telfer be called in front of Millar as a 23rd man replacement..shock and confusion!! I dont think he was part of Herdmans plans, he probably knew that and he has every right to go to T+T. And if we are seriously thinking that T+T are going to be the reason we dont qualify for the WC....boy we are in trouble. Whether he's in JH's plans or not is not my point. My point is, I will never be happy and say good luck to anyone who could play for us and does not. Who's to say that he won't come back and haunt us? Are we that strong? As Cdn. team supporters, we should be looking at things that make us stronger not weaker. How does it help our national teams when someone plays for a rival team? Look I don't wish them any harm, but I certainly won't wish them all the best. Cheers but that's my opinion.

It is like wishing someone one good luck when we are all-in at a poker game. Even if I say it, I don't really mean it. I don't want the guy to suffer horribly or anything - I just want my side to win. Every time. MtlMario and Obinna 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Real Marc Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 This is a nice development for him. I hope he has a nice international career, giving him something to look back on when he's retired and working a normal job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
