Pretty sure he talked about trying to earn a spot with Liverpool this pre season. That probably doesn’t happen, but let’s hope for another good loan for him. Wouldn’t be surprised to see him back in Scotland as a starter somewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to guess there are encouraging details in there. Some of the names on that table are quite young, their whole future lays ahead of them. Nice find all the same.

Bison44 Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 I thought those stats looked better than last year as well. I guess it just goes to show how bad it really is. Last year we had 11 guys over 1000 min, 4 guys over 2000min. Overall we had 30 CDN play in MLS last year, and we already have 30 this year. So from the looks of it we might get a few more in all metrics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obinna Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 Shome is clearly having a break out year. Hamilton too has some nice stats given his minutes. It's unfortunate he'll miss the U-23s by 1 year. Shome, Miller, Fraser, Chioniere, Buchanan, Schaffleburg, Bayiha are all players I am earmarking for Olympic qualifiers. Combine these with the best of the CPL (Borges, Verhoeven, Langwa, Campbell etc.) and we'll have a pretty solid team! apbsmith, Dominic94, Bison44 and 1 other 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corazon Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 The Gold Cup could affect the number of starts slightly. We did have 12 players away and missed anywhere from 4 to 6 games. Although, many young Canadians players benefited from regulars away at the tournament as well. If anyone provided a full list of players in USL 1, USL2 & CPL, I would have no problem putting together a list for those leagues as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The American teams are on the "Canucks Abroad" tab and the Canadian teams are on the "Canucks at Home" tab. http://www.rednationonline.ca/Articles2015/CANMNTPlayerPool.aspx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know how to include a fancy chart so below lists the total number of Canadian players to play over 2000 minutes, over 1000 minutes, over 100 minutes, and made at least one game day 18. Also included the total number of minutes played and the average age of everyone to make a game day 18. The 2019 stats are accurate as of today. 2016: Played over 2000 minutes: 2, over 1000 minutes: 8, over 100 minutes: 22, made game day 18: 30, Total minutes: 19765, Average age: 23.29 2017: Played over 2000 minutes: 1, over 1000 minutes: 7, over 100 minutes: 19, made game day 18: 29, Total minutes: 17475, Average age: 23.50 2018: Played over 2000 minutes: 4, over 1000 minutes: 11, over 100 minutes: 26, made game day 18: 34, Total minutes: 27750, Average age: 23.44 2019: Played over 2000 minutes: 0, over 1000 minutes: 9, over 100 minutes: 26, made game day 18: 38, Total minutes: 18938, Average age: 22.97 It appears that 2016 and 2017 the stats were similar and there was a fairly substantial increase in 2018 which should hold steady in 2019. Also interesting that of the 30 Canadians to make a game day squad in 2016 only 11 are still in MLS. Corazon, afun and apbsmith 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll fill in 1996 to 2014 for most of those stats, which I also used to keep track of, but I've stopped. Edited my original post to have players that are in the 2000+ category counted in each column, and players in the 1000 category to be counted in the 1000 and 100 columns, to match @Stryker911's data. Also added Stryker's data for these columns to my table. Missing numbers for 2015.

Kent Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 Updated my post. I don't have data on the game day 18 or average age, that's the only reason it's not included. I've merged the matching metrics we have though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stryker911 Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 Interesting that there was a huge increase when TFC joined in 2007, but Vancouver and Montreal joining made no difference. Either way the numbers are very slowly trending up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kent Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 I think the two interesting things are... 1. What Stryker said. TFC caused a surge, but Vancouver and Montreal, with the newly lowered domestic player quota that was insisted on, didn't make any difference. 2. 2018 and 2019 saw a surge, which happens to coincide with the announcement of the CPL. I really think the Canadian MLS teams did react to the CPL or at the least the talk from fans about the CPL and how important it is to have Canadians playing. johnyb and gator 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kent Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 9 minutes ago, Lofty said: Yes, hard to ignore that significant bump just as CPL was announced. Didn't MLS also recently change their "domestic player" rules to be more Canadian friendly? (Presumably in response to CPL.) If so, that would also have helped. True. I can't remember but I think that came into effect in 2017 or 2018. I'm pretty sure Don Garber announced the rule change during one of the MLS Cup finals in Toronto.

SpecialK Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 CB Ferreira seems like he’s without a club. Canadian MLS teams should be knocking.
