If it's the one in thinking of, I thought he was but of a letdown I think there is an advantage of all the players being so familiar with each other He was there. (Jamie Dunning) I also wonder how hard it is for players based in European countries to accept a call-up. I don't mind not having European based players for this camp. I don't mind not having European bsed players here. I would have liked to see more players from outside the MLS Academy pool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luego, Aimar definirá el equipo que estará en el Mundial". Hoping, "cuadrangular" translates as quadrangular with Canada also playing Mexico and New Zealand.

El Hombre Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 (edited) So the squad is out for the pre-tournament camp and I am legit confused. My guess is that this team will make the core of the tournament team, if not the entirety, and if that's true, there are issues: GK- Benjamin Collins | CAN / Académie Impact Montréal GK- Eleias Himaras | CAN / Toronto FC Academy GK- Marc Kouadio | USA / Montverde Academy CB- Maxime Bourgeois | CAN / Académie Impact Montréal CB- Nathan Demian | CAN / Vancouver Whitecaps FC Academy CB- Gianfranco Facchineri | CAN / Vancouver Whitecaps FC Academy CB- Keesean Ferdinand | CAN / Académie Impact Montréal FB- Kobe Franklin | CAN / Toronto FC Academy FB- Rohan Goulbourne | CAN / Toronto FC Academy FB- Deylen Vellios | CAN / Vancouver Whitecaps FC Academy M- Julian Altobelli | CAN / Toronto FC Academy M- Emiliano Brienza | CAN / Vancouver Whitecaps FC Academy M- Matt Catavolo | CAN / Académie Impact Montréal M- Tomas Giraldo | CAN / Académie Impact Montréal M- Deandre Kerr | CAN / Toronto FC Academy M- Damiano Pecile | CAN / Vancouver Whitecaps FC Academy M- Ralph Priso-Mbongue | CAN / Toronto FC Academy F- Jacen Russell-Rowe | CAN / Toronto FC Academy W- Kamron Habibullah | CAN / Vancouver Whitecaps FC Academy W- Mouhamadou Kane | CAN / Académie Impact Montréal W- Jayden Nelson | CAN / Toronto FC Academy W- Aribim Pepple | CAN / Cavalry FC (Calgary) W- Sean Rea | CAN / Académie Impact Montréal Key players missing: Simon Colyn, Jeremie Omeonga. Why either of those two were dropped is puzzling. I have no faith in Olivieri and now I have even less. Edit: Oh yeah, we're playing Argentina and Mexico in closed door friendlies.

CanadaFan123 Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 Was Colyn not a leader and one of the best players? Did he do something to piss them off? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colliedor Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 What happened to David Amla? I thought he looked good during the qualifiers but was really unlucky and got injured. The best player from the Montreal call ups imo. Rowe, Nelson, Habibullah, and Priso HAVE to start. I really hope Olivieri handles this much better than the way he did with Qualifiers. Made way too many drastic changes in the bigger games. Benched some key players on the first USA match, and than basically played the entire Montreal academy in the second USA match. Guy needs to show some consistency. Think I would feel more comfortable with Tenllado managing the team. Junkie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 Really hope that Forge schedules their finals game at a different time the opening game against Brazil. It would be really bad on their part if they did, unless there is nothing else they can do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpecialK Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 Would be amazing if they they could pulled off a miracle and get CB Nikolas White, LW Theodor Corbeanu and GK Aldo Commisso. Also I’m curious if we’ll see Matt Passacquale 15 year old - sc Heerenveen U17 get a call ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obinna Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 (edited) Is Pepple the first Canadian Premier League player to be called to a Canadian youth NT? If so I believe that deserves some recognition. Certainly he's the first Cavalry player to earn a youth NT call since the team launched. Unless I am missing someone. But yeah, another win for the CSA thanks to the CPL. 12 months ago this kid was playing youth soccer locally. Got scooped up by Foothills earlier this year and scored 3 goals in 11 games, if I recall correctly. Then Cavalry signed the 16 year old this summer and now he finds himself only 1 of 2 non-MLS players on the U-17 roster. I'd like to think his showings in his 6 CPL apperances earned him a spot, moreso than his USL league 2 (pdl) performances.

There has to be something else for the drop. Because they're kids, I don't want to crucify them, but there was one midfielder who played more than one qualifier that was an absolute horror show and he's back.

Agree that the hype going in to the qualifiers re Colyn played a role in his assessment. He looked tired and did not match performances from some of the other highly ranked players. Having said that, I too am surprised that he is not on the team regardless of his sub performance. Given his pedigree I would have expected him to be there. You are spot on that there are others who did not play well and still made this squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
