(Or didn’t) In addition to the 4 players mentioned, Omeonga on the wing was impressive. Fast, strong, good skill on the ball, great work rate and calm finisher....just needs to go easy on tackles. On defence Facchineri was solid and calm; positionally sound and for a big lad did not get torched by speedy forwards. There were others that performed well but not enough minutes played to give an opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its all good guys, this is a positive development. So lets agree on the following 2 items: 1. Qualifying for a youth WC is important; for recognition of our youth prospects, solidifying the mentality that we have lacked in big games against Concacaf teams and to attract top level athletes for youth soccer throughout Canada. 2. We all had high expectations going in as there were some real jewels (Jayden, Kamron, Colyn and Rowe) on this squad and a few more made their case during the tournament. It is a challenge for any coaching team to put their stamp on a team when we have so few camps and friendlies, but there are indicators such as set plays on offence and defence; how we set up the defensive shield and structure when attacking that provides some insight re coaching. Almost all the boys come from MLS academies that have structured coaching and have experience in tournaments. The CSA coaching staff have been working closely with the 3 MLS academies over the past year presumably trying to incorporate some of their tactics, strategies etc that they intend to deploy for qualifiers. In other words, this was not a one week coaching camp. All of us whether as employees, professionals or family members are accountable to our employers, clients or family members and that holds true for soccer players, coaches and CSA executives. We should continue to expect the very best and the highest standards from our players, coaches and management. Looking forward to the USA game! Now with CPL I am hoping these Clubs both current and future will create Acediemies therefore making our player pool even larger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ivan Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 Surprised no Nelson, Fachinieri, Vellios and Omeonga, but I guess they feel the job is done? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MM3/MM2/MM Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 (edited) The A- lineup holding at 0-0 at half. The USA looks like a A lineup. Edited May 14, 2019 by MM3/MM2/MM Strait Red 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spitfire Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 (edited) 1-0 USA a nice finish the Us came out strong to start the 2nd half. Let’s see how the lads respond Edited May 14, 2019 by spitfire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spitfire Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 (edited) Canada looked better since the goal and the changes but the US get a 2nd. 2-0 now Edited May 14, 2019 by spitfire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spitfire Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 (edited) 3-0. Game over. (Figuratively) not done yet Defensive errors cost Canada here. Will need to tighten up and improve for the wc but there’s time. Great potential here. Our keeper made a few great saves at 2-0. A bit naive and playing too open in my mind. At 1-0 there was a chance to come back. The important thing is that we qualified for the wc this will be a great game to learn from. 4-0 now....

CPLtoTorontopls Posted May 15, 2019 Share Posted May 15, 2019 Given this Canada generation seems very talented, was the lopsided loss a result of the US team bring significantly better or us just falling apart. I see the Americans didn't start Yow and their first goalkeeper, so I thought we'd at least do better than 0-4 and under 40% possession. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If an official switch has been approved by FIFA doesn't that mean that he's already cap tied given that a player can only switch once?
