It does not look good for next game, the two players with the most minutes since the beginning of the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think there's any quarantine restrictions for him to go back to the US so he should be fine for the game. He just won't be training with the Impact in Canada.

Yohan Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 As a TFC supporter, I want IMFC to be an epic fail forever, but watch the IMFC stuff MLS has been putting out last couple of days. I think if the supporters are willing to be patient with Thierry Henry, I think he'll do well as a manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Free kick Posted November 21, 2020 Share Posted November 21, 2020 Mixed emotions in this game. When it comes to the playoffs, I want to see as many canadian teams advance as possible. And, i want to see the realisation of a Cnd matchup because of the kind of magic that it generated in 2016. So i was routing for Montreal most of the game. I thought, that for about 70-75 minutes Montreal executed a plan and played just well enough that realistically they could expect a win. But by around the 80-90th minute it was looking more and more that Montreal would have stolen one, and my sentiments chnaged. Knowing how often the playoffs had produced unjust results in the past, i was happy to see NE get the goal. Without the absences, it would have looked different for Montreal but NE just wanted it more and deserved to move on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would think a guy who went through that would have some consideration for a young player struggling. Very tough way to lose in the last moments like that, but it was coming for the last 15-20min. ZBG looked very good, between him Lareya and Johnston (who is looking good tonight as well) RB is seeming more like a strength than a weakness for CMNT. costarg and dyslexic nam 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grr........ I was never a fan of that need to mimick the club names that used in europe. As long as a name has history and awareness, thats what counts. Sure, eventually i got used to Sporting Kansas and DC united ect. But at first i thought it was stupid. Clubs in europe are clubs. They are differnt legal entities and their names reflect that. In north america we have franchises. To europeans thats a dirty word, but it is what it is. Franchises can have nicknames and thats part of their brand, at first it all sounds corporate but over time, it developes. But the constant need to always fall back to the euro sounding names smacks of inferiority complex. Obinna 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chad_Impact Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 (edited) I will be so so disappointed if this name change happens. The problems with the Impact are many, the historical team name is not one. Edited December 2, 2020 by Chad_Impact fil and Obinna 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gian-Luca Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 Don’t really see the need for this, were they getting tired of commentator puns like “Urrutti isn’t making much of an impact on the match” or something? Given then absence of a replacement nickname I expect half the fans will continue to call them the Impact anyway Obinna 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fil Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 Montreal Impact Test Positive For The FC Virus December 1, 2020 MONTREAL - Despite their best efforts to quarantine over the last 27 years, it was leaked to the press, today, that the Montreal Impact tested positive for the FC Virus. “We couldn’t believe it,” stated owner/operator Joey Saputo. “We’ve been taking this virus very seriously, but it seems like every other team in North America, we suddenly are FC.” Sources indicate that the virus must have started infecting the organization months or even years ago as it spread throughout the front office of the Impact before they finally tested positive “This is a warning to other teams, you’ll enjoy your life like nothings happening and next thing you know you have the FC virus,” stated one anonymous source with Montreal FC. “I’m looking at you New England, acting like nothing is wrong. Don’t think this is a hoax! You could be Boston FC, tomorrow.” The Nutmeg News will have more on this as local residents attempt to inoculate themselves against the FC Virus https://www.thenutmegnews.com/current/2020/12/1/montreal-impact-test-positive-for-the-fc-virus DoyleG, Chad_Impact and deschamp86 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
costarg Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 I don't know, the news source that leaked isn't the most credible or "in the know". I'll only believe it when I see it. I know its controversial, historically speaking and I'm no fan of the euro copy-cat FC, United, etc... however i've always disliked the Impact name. I understand they wanted something bilingual and it sounded cool 27 years ago, but it got old really fast. Personally I'd be happy to see it go, it just sounds soo U13. I was always a little torn when the youth team got Montreal FC. I'm all in for the name/brand change. Just me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The time to drop this cartoonish name was in 2012 when they entered MLS. Now at the MLS level they have cemented their identity as Impact de Montreal and the cartoonish nature of the name just isn't there anymore to me. When I hear that name I think of a respectable franchise who despite ups and downs has done alright for itself. To me at this point changing the name would be more clownish than the name itself. The club has a very nice logo as well, so I would not be in favor of a re-brand in this particular situation.
