My prediction is he will be a stand out for us at this tournament. He scored in the last TFC match and should get lots of playing time the next few league matches. dyslexic nam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obinna Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 Not surprised to see Ayomide Bamidele Akinola on our preliminary roster. Dominic94, WestHamCanadianinOxford and Shway 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obinna Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 The fact that Borjan is missing but Davies and David are included suggests there's an actual chance they are summoned. Ditto Arfield.

Floortom Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 (edited) Does a player have to consent to be added to this list or can CSA put whoever they want in the list? I.e. does this list mean that these players, if ultimately called, will attend? Seems unlikely with Arfield being included for example Edited June 18, 2021 by Floortom narduch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dyslexic nam Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 Some (very) early thoughts: - I don’t know if this is basically a conservative wish list or if we have spoken to these guys. I suspect it is the former but if it is the latter I would be over the moon. Even if it is a wish list there is still some good stuff to be gleaned. - Akinola on our roster but not the US has to be a pretty damn solid indication. Let’s hope this goes through. - similar to Ayo, Singh appears on our list and not T&T’s Decision made? If so, let’s get this guy on the field. - The inclusion of some other duals is really interesting. Jebbison and Flores are the two high profile guys. Really curious if we see either. - No Dias is too bad, but in light of the other inclusions I am not am worried about it. - the young TFC contingent is good to see. Will be good for Nelson, Priso, and Okello (along with Ayo and Singh) to be in this context. - focusing on the lesser know or uncommitted young guns but the inclusion of Davies and David is interesting. Maybe it is just out of an abundance of spots, but you would think that if we were settled on taking a B team we wouldn’t name those two. Maybe Herdman agrees with me that the GC is the chance to prep for the Ocho. - some other names that jumped out are Vilsaint and Elva. Not sure what it signifies yet, but good to see the youth movement continue. narduch, Dominic94, Obinna and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In saying that if the CSA felt they had no chance at Jebbison and Flores they probably wouldn’t be included. gator, Obinna and NVsoccer 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obinna Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 https://canadasoccer.com/news/concacaf-gold-cup-provisional-rosters-confirmed/ Junior Hoilett and Brym are the only two who are unattached. I never knew Lille cut ties with him, but it's probably for the best. He wasn't getting anywhere near the first team and wasn't making any impact during his loans. He needs to drop a level and play regularly. Ivan, Shway and costarg 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, that's just bizarre when you look at some of the other names. Even if he's far down the depth chart he played for the Danish champions and in the Greek first division.. played UCL ball and has WCQ and Gold Cup experience with us.

canadianbacons Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 No Adekube but I guess with being in season and a forthcoming transfer its not surprising. Will be good to see Gutierrez at LB and/or Miller/Cornelius at LCB. I have my doubts about Kennedy accepting this call. narduch and Dominic94 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pottsy3 Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 Disappointing not to see Manjrekar James. I suppose this signifies some sort of falling out, and unless he hits some undeniable form I doubt we see him again. Adekugbe another player from WCQ not included in the side, although I suspect he indicated he wouldn't be coming. No CanPLer's even in the 60 if unfortunate. Although it would probably mean missing 60% of their season with the Canadian regulations on COVID, etc. Dominic94, Obinna, NVsoccer and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I missed the omission of James in my first pass but that one really is baffling. There must be something behind it because he deserves to be listed on merit, so it has to be some sort of personality clash or something.

It's got to be an off the field issue, as CB isn't a position where we can gloss over that pedigree. BradMack and Addona 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
