"possible roster for Cuba" Lol title alone states it's not the same thread. It's filled with everyone's possible 23. This is intended to be the official JH call-up thread. IMO it helps in the future when you want to search previous camps/calls up's it's easier to find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm totally cool with you making this official thread. The other thread I made was more so speculation about who would get called. If it ended up getting used after the call ups, all good, but no problem with this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chad_Impact Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Why call up a guy like Wotherspoon over Borges or Camargo... Other than that, I like seeing Laryea, Cordova, Adekugbe and Tesho called in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m all for saying fck you to the clubs, especially the ones that don’t play during the international break, but I’d much rather see the CPL teams have their full teams during their first season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gator Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 I'm ok with this roster and quite pleased to see Fraser and Laryea get called, if Piette isn't match fit I would consider starting Fraser although there are other more senior players such as Kaye who can play in that role!

Obinna Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Really happy with the squad overall. Perhaps Herdman was lurking about and took our advice (jk). A lot of us called for Vitoria, Layera, Cordova, Akindele and even Carducci. All are there, which is great! Spoony is the obvious surprise, but good for him. With Arfield and Hutchinson out, I think he's being brought in for his experience. Speaking of Arfield, I wonder why he was omitted, as he is healthy and in form. Perhaps this is a matter of giving him a break? He's not a spring chicken anymore... Also, I bet Shome narrowly missed out... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shway Posted August 28, 2019 Author Share Posted August 28, 2019 My takes: - Piette questionable is he even fit? but I guess he's a vet? - 5CBs questionable highly questionable, unless we're playing 3 in the back. - Liam Fraser highly questionable since he hasn't played first team MLS ball since July. Would've prefer a CPL informer like Elijah. - Will Johnson highly questionable, guess he's a camp player - great to see Adekugbe, Tesho, and Cordova Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll probably play at LB for us and serve as cover for Cornelius. That's my guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrennanFan Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Credit where it's due, Herdman has accepted he's made mistakes and is now calling a more balanced roster. Hopefully that's the end of playing guys out of position. Overall this is an excellent roster. Wonder what's up with Scott Arfield? I'm starting to think Manjrekar James is not in Herdman's plans.

Obinna Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Just noticed Straith is in and James is out. That's an interesting one. Perhaps it's still a case of leaving him in Denmark to help him win a starting role, or maybe has Straith surpassed him in the pecking order now...

Pottsy3 Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Love the roster, only criticism really is Adam Straith. I don’t figure that straith is going to be anything other than a depth guy for camp. Would much rather a Dominic Zator or Luca Gasparotto get that chance. I figure the only reason that Wotherspoon gets called over Tristan Borges is because of Forge’s busy schedule. (Same can probably be said about David Edgar not being considered). also, how are we back to scape goating Piette? I’m seeing people questioning his inclusion, which confuses me unless it’s because of his recent injuries. He’s a bulldog in the middle for Montreal and is still our next best choice DM behind Atiba.

Ivan Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Straith hasn't been seeing the field lately at Rostock. Surprised he was called ahead of James. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkuseisLoose Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Obviously we haven’t called our best team but it’s not really horrible because it’ll give some of our Depth players to get a run around against a easier opponent. Happy Cordova got the call but a bit disappointed Millar hasn’t got the call. That might be for the best however so he can further establish himself at kilmarnock. Hope to see him, Arfield, eustaqio, and James Vs the USA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean tbf they probably have to ask the clubs to release the players at least a month in advance, so they wouldn’t have known he’d fall out of favour.
