Gian-Luca Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 Would be history repeating itself to some degree if this happens - we played inexperienced Paul Dolan for the first match in 1986 before being able to play our #1, Lettieri in games 2 and 3 narduch, BearcatSA and Jack1997 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watchmen Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 He did say in an interview he'd be open to it, though hard to say how serious he is. Still, let's hope the Whitecaps hold on to him for a bit longer. BearcatSA and Jack1997 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RS Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 Gauld has played official youth matches for Scotland so it’s hard to see how he’d qualify for Canada. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can still qualify through residency even if you played official youth matches, as long as they were before 2020. Free kick and RS 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's eligible now. Funer Mori had the same issue with Mexico and Argentina youth caps but the rule changed and he was able to switch to Mexico.

jordan Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 Likely don’t need to worry about Gauld, not many last five years there, and not many players have career aspirations of finishing 12th in the west each year narduch, NVsoccer and Shway 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Diego Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 I am not sure he is that really far off Borjan. Even injury aside, I think he's ahead of Crepeau (no shade on Max who I've grown to appreciate more). Really hope he can improve his distribution. I wonder how far off a move he is?

InglewoodJack Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 With how many American keepers get massive moves, you gotta think St Clair could feasibly move to the championship or premier league in the next few years. Whether he plays is another question. narduch, costarg, Jack1997 and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max has very sure hands, St Clair seemed unsure with high balls in that pre WC friendly. Maybe I judge him on too little. I know he's an agile reflex player. It's what is expected of you. Borjan is very unsure with his feet and most MLS keepers aren't asked to do quality distribution. From what we saw in qualifying, Crepeau is extremely reliable and has extras, like penalty stops and game smarts CanadaFan123 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dyslexic nam Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 Yeah I love having St Clair as a quality top 3 keeper for us but I don’t know if he has surpassed Max at full capacity. Crepeau has been pretty damn good for us whenever called upon. I know that whenever Max was between the pipes, I never felt like we were risking anything or compromising.

From what we saw in qualifying, Crepeau is extremely reliable and has extras, like penalty stops and game smarts I felt that Crepeau bossed his penalty area much better with the Caps than he did in the several times I saw him with LAFC last year. However, I felt comfortable with his play with NT. St. Clair is still learning his craft, especially with the mental side of the game in putting mistakes and setbacks behind him quickly without further distraction. but he has the build and athleticism to pull off massive saves in key moments. I like him a lot! Unnamed Trialist 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Watchmen Posted May 7, 2023 Share Posted May 7, 2023 Don't be fooled by St Clair giving up 3 to the Whitecaps tonight. He was the only reason it was as close as it was. Some great/critical saves. Would like to see him as Canada's starter at the Gold Cup this summer. Shway, NVsoccer and blueseeka 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally find he has flaws and immaturity that put him clearly below Crepeau, though the latter is not healthy yet. He does not command the box that well, is not really sure in the air, is more an agile stop stopper, which looks good in the crunch. I find he only average with his feet. Of course that was a flaw with Borjan too, one of his weak areas. Corazon and PastPros 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
