I'm good with that and am sure Edwards gets it, he'll get some playing time for TFC maybe as early as Wednesday and has had good National Team experience with OZ!

Razcal Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Yeah, don't think there was much chance of Edwards coming on, really the only other option to send home would be Straith. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baulderdash77 Posted July 17, 2017 Author Share Posted July 17, 2017 This was an expected and good move. We are now fielding almost our best roster . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apbsmith Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 So bernier/Osorio and slim chance Kaye in the other mid spot along side Arfield. Here's your shot Osorio, you earned it after your performance on Friday. WJ makes us better but he can go rest his knee or whatever else is sore in the 90 minutes he plays on Friday. Don't mind the "not disrupting the chemistry/unity". He also seemed to have made it clear in the interview his "club was an important spot where every game and point matters"...... 1 game TFC 3-0 Orlando. I understand he is still nursing some injuries and the rest I am sure helped him recover etc. I will always give people the benefit of the doubt without knowing everything. I hope we see you in September WJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you forget about Sam Piette? It's without a doubt going to be and Piette, Arfield. Bernier, Osorio or Teibert for the 3rd spot. 'm fairly sure it's Bernier though. The big question is does Larin take Cavalini's spot I think he does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grizzly Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 I would start Larin. I would sub in Cavallini if we are tied or in the lead and AJH if we are losing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Cavallini deserves the start. Larin can be left on bench if we winning by 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grizzly Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 3 hours ago, canta15 said: Cavallini deserves the start. Larin can be left on bench if we winning by 2 Why does he deserve the start? He hasn't scored in 3 matches, has never scored in 6 matches for Canada and has hardly had a scoring opportunity in the 3 Gold Cup matches. Larin has 5 goals in 20 matches for Canada and hasn't lived up to what we expected of him but if we are going to criticize Larin for not scoring why is Cavallini not being subjected to the same criticism when he has scored far less than Larin and so far does not seem to be even a threat to score. Work rate and holding the ball up are good qualities but in the end a striker needs to create chances and score. Edit changed 5 goals in 14 games to 5 in 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was referring to the other spot in the triangle where Bernier/Osorio/Kaye have seen minutes, to be played alongside Arfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Club Linesman Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 I guess the question comes down to this - has Larin been nearly invisible with the CMNT the last couple of years because of Floroball, and now he will rock it because of the quality of the squad and the way they are playing under Oz? Interesting choice for the Wizard really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanadianSoccerFan Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 I like Raheem. If I had to leave a player out it's Teibert Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scorpion26 Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 Just one change for Canada while US had six. Keeping the chemistry going nice. What I would like to see would be both Cavallini and Larin start together, but if not possible Cav should start just because he's been there from the start plus seems sensitive and might run out on us again if benched. Just joking.... Would love to see both start Cav in CF role while Larin in ST role. I think would be cool little forward set up and you got Davies and Hoilett as wingers. 4-4-2 diamond Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gian-Luca Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 I guessed it would be Edwards because I didn't see any footage of him with the rest of the team on the plane that the CSA tweeted. He would not have been my choice but two central midfielders on a yellow I can see why OZ didn't pick Kaye. Glad Larin is onboard though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theaub Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 If you're starting Davies and Hoilett, its basically two players who give shit service to a guy who needs service to score. I'd start Cavallini still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpecialK Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 CA Peñarol plays with 2 strikers. So playing with Larin, could get Cavallini going And same with Larin, Cavallini could open things up for Cyle. We could be looking at an Offensive explosion for Canada.

As of right now, my opinion is that the team plays better with Cavallini in the team, but I'm open to changing that with evidence. Maybe Larin starts and proves me wrong. I wonder if we can get them both on the field? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
