shermanator Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Bernier and Cavallini out in favour of Teibert and Larin. Interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greatest Cockney Rip Off Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Wasn't expecting Teibert. Great opportunity for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keegan Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Surprised to see Teibert over Bernier. He's obviously got more in the tank but is a liability aerially to a team that is already challenged in that department. That's why this team needed Johnson or Hutchinson so bad.. an all around mid that can go 90 other than arfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could see this move if the conditions were bad but supposedly this is in a closed stadium...so heat wouldn't really be a factor...and it's been 6 days since our last match..

Club Linesman Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Larin better be pumped for this game and work his ass off. Cavallini will be chewing glass on the sidelines and ready to break teeth to get into the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 I'm sorry but I don't agree with Larin walking onto the team after making an idiotic decision, and taking the spot of a players who worked their ass off this tournament. Let's see how he plays Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boominbooty Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Prediction: Canada 2-0 Larin with a header goal from Arfield corner. Davies with a nice shot from run of play. Mexico in semis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GimliJetsMan Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 I guess I'm the only one shitting themselves for this game. I'm optimistic, which is the one trait I told myself not to have heading into this tournament. DAMN YOU DAVIES! DAMN YOU! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe OZ proves me wrong, but the idea of rotation for rotation's sake doesn't make sense in the QF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonovision Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Are people upset about Larin replacing Cavallini because of the manner Larin is coming into the team, or because Cavallini has been so great this tournament? I'll accept the former (in fact, I'm fully on board with taking a moral stance), but am not convinced by the latter. I don't have much reason to believe Larin won't be able to do the things Cavallini has done well so far, and he has a better chance, in my opinion, of doing the things he hasn't done yet, namely score goals.

Let's see how he plays At this point I am not even factoring in the DUI. He has been sanctioned by the league, done what he was told to do, and at the QF stage I want us to prioritize winning. It is displacing Cav that I don't like. He has helped us get here, and it doesn't send a great message to immediately replace him with Larin. It would be different if Larin bagged goals at a high rate, but I haven't seen anything from him that would justify the potential turmoil. But i hope they all prove me wrong.

Olympique_de_Marseille Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 The bookmakers are putting us as slight favorites to win - not heavy favourites. People here are way too confident. 1-2 loss and heartbreak is my prediction. Prove me wrong #CanMNT!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpg75 Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 I disagree with Larin showing up last minute to take the starting spot of someone who was here the whole time and worked hard. If he came off tbe bench to replace Cav tonight and played better in his 30 mins. than Cavs, then he starts in the semis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jpg75 Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Tiebert is probably starting because of his engine, he'll give us more work rate in the 1st half to counter the Jamaicans athleticism. I predict Osorio coming on in the 70th to provide an attacking spark once the pace slows a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, but he strikes me as being a bit high maintenance. And with limited options up front, I think we probably need to handle him with a bit delicately. Not saying that should determine him as an auto starter or anything, but under the circumstances I could see this decision being an issue - especially if Larin doesn't light it up.
