Bison44 Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 I did notice that Garde gave him the quintesential dismissive "eehh", pursed lips, tilted head, shrug of the shoulders while Vanney was trying to talk to him. I almost spit my drink out as I used to get the same expression from my french canadian neighbors when I was a kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackdude Posted March 22, 2018 Author Share Posted March 22, 2018 I'm kind of surprised that he's wearing #4. First time since 2003 that it will be worn. Looks like NDS has lost a lot of power in Montreal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miel de maple Posted March 31, 2018 Share Posted March 31, 2018 Manchester United scouts say the player at the GA Cup that most impressed them was Yannick Laurent (#42) captain of the Impact U17s.. impressive. You can watch some games via the MLS youtube channel. He most reminds me of Higuain with Columbus - all over the park looking to move the other team around by his movements and touches. Though he played as an 8 in a midfield three, dare I say he could be the future number 10 we’ve been waiting for..? Here’s the youtube link to the semis game against Seattle where the announcers mention Yannick being singled out by Manchester United during a scouting course they gave. https://t.co/NY39j0FulC?amp=1 —-update below—- Adding a followup MLS.com article where he’s mentioned as one of the top 5 of tournament: https://www.mlssoccer.com/post/2018/04/04/baer-5-names-you-should-know-after-2018-generation-adidas-cup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtlfan Posted April 1, 2018 Share Posted April 1, 2018 Impact now have beaten both teams from the 2017 MLS CUP Final with two clean sheets winning 1-0 with an ugly performance in Seattle last night. Some very poor play from Taider perhaps suffering from jet lag having been overseas with his national team and Duval who was out of his element. Again Fanni was solid in the back along with Cabrera.

Funny, because I think the same thing about Ashtone Morgan. Duvall is also a dirt cheap ($70 000), young-ish (26) journeyman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chad_Impact Posted April 2, 2018 Share Posted April 2, 2018 It's disappointing to see Krolicki start over Beland-Goyette but can't argue with it based on his performances. He makes some mistakes but the upside Garde sees in him is clear. It would be cool to see him called up to the Japanese national team over the U.S. I would much rather a young Japanese national getting minutes on our team than a young American.

Gian-Luca Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 Montreal has got to get Cabrera, Krolicki and Vargas off the pitch for the second half against NE - either that or get them to play better. Cabrera is having a woeful night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well he may have saved an extremely poorly taken PK that Fagundez was made to wait 6 minutes to take, but his effort on the 4th goal was nothing to write home about and he could also have done better on the second as well. I think a handful of Impact starters (Piette, Fanni, AJH, Silva) could be said to have had a bether night than Bush Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even a man down that's bad given the level of competition. Piette had too many turnovers in the Montreal half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
