baulderdash77 Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 We haven’t really had a good best XI talk yet. In the Borges thread there is a question of who could move to a higher league. Let’s break down a best XI (4-3-3) Carducci Grant. Zator. Gasparoto. Langawa. Adekubge. Bekker Carmargo. Borges. Petrasso Campbell * edit* formatting.

Ivan Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 ^ I agree with it all except the backline. I would go. Chung Zator Temguia Abdi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ivan Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 Oh geez, I forgot about Pasquotti. Thanks Ingham. Pasquotti in for Petrasso for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Petrasso is the next best winger in the league besides Borges. Look at his goal and assists plus he’s been injured. So your team needs 2 CM types because there’s so many good wingers in the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has been outstanding for Valour. Not as good as Adekugbe though. I think he’s the best CM/DM in the league. He’s very very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think he’s played a minute at CM this year though. He’s been used as a winger and once (not very well) as a striker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baulderdash77 Posted September 17, 2019 Author Share Posted September 17, 2019 I’m actually a Forge fan. I’ve watched every game and when we played Calgary it was so obvious how good Adekugbe was. He was able to dominate our midfield. Calgary was the only team that could do that in more than 1 match against us and I’ve always had the impression ever since that Adekugbe is a top CM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I also think that Pasquotti has been excellent, he has a high degree of presence on the pitch when he plays. I am not sure about Chung. He's a good player, but Pacific is no a solid team defensively, and that has to be on him as well. I saw HFX more earlier in the summer, so have not seen Langwa lately. Cannot judge Samuel either, I guess I don't watch backs that much, at least not on tv (live I do). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not a big Abzi fan so Langwa had to be the one. Samuel has been decent, but not sure who else to include. I do rate Chung though, he's been an unsung hero for Pacific I think.

Aird25 Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 I’m a bit surprised that nobody has mentioned Buescher or Blake Smith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
