You’re completely missing the point mate, but I get what you’re saying. Not saying Theo is a lock now or in November, but his versatility could make him a tough decision if his development stays on track Edited December 26, 2021 by N1ckbr0wn johnyb, Shway, Approve My Account Pls and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's look at the depth chart for fowards: 1) Davies 2) David 3) Larin 4) Buchanon 5) Ugbo 6) Cavallini 7) Hoilett 😎 Akinola 9) Millar 10) Corbeanu Yes Theo can jump the queue or there can be a massive injury bug that strikes CAN MNT. But on the flip side Mitrovic, Jebbison, Morales or Dias can impress and commit. But as of today Theo is 10th on the depth chart and I figure we bring 6 maybe 7 forwards to Qatar. Of that list, I really only see the top 4 as pretty much guaranteed ahead of everyone else if healthy. Of the rest, some are playing well (Millar) some have potential (Ugbo) and some have enough ongoing issues of form or injury to be question marks (Cav, Hoilett and Akinola). No idea if Theo will earn a spot but it is entirely plausible IMO depending on what happens over the next 11 months.

Herdman didn't drop him in late 2021 despite his lack of goals or anything really with Vancouver. So it remains to be seen if he is actually at risk of missing out.

An Observer Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 7 hours ago, Sal333 said: For expediency I won't argue your point about Akinola. So that places Theo 9th on the depth chart. Do you think we're bringing 9 forwards to Qatar? 9th today; in November next year he could be much higher (or indeed lower if Jebbison or Flores commit). The argument was over “locks” and not who is where on the depth chart today. They are two separate things Shway and dyslexic nam 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
An Observer Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 7 hours ago, N1ckbr0wn said: Akinola last played at the GC in June, battled with consistency since MLS is back, and has no real timeline for return from injury. I’m just as high on him as the next V, but how can he be ahead of someone who has been consistently performing, playing, and has a chance of a championship loan/cracking a PL squad within the next calendar year? Not even adding the fact Theo can play multiple positions. Akinola is the one I think we are unlikely to see in Qatar. Will only be a few months from returning from a major injury and you have David, Larin, Ugbo and Cavallini in that spot (and possibly Jebbison). I think you would need to see him start with a bang and the latter 2’s form dip (and Jebbison not commit) before we see him. corbeanu will be battling it out with Hoilett and Millar and much more likely he wins one of those spots although he is definitely behind those 2 at the moment. lowlander and johnyb 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EJsens1 Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 We’ll see what happens with Theo. I think he’ll be back in the premier league next year getting lots of reps. When it comes to the roster, so much can happen within a year. Assuming we’re in, does Herdman simply pick a team with all the guys that got him there or the players playing at their peak come next October? I’d pick the players playing their best. He’s going to have some very difficult decisions and sleepless nights because for some this could their last chance with what we have coming through the system. Of course their is a double standard here, like if Davies was playing terribly for Bayern, he’s going to be there, but to me the only exception for a player would be Hutchinson regardless of performance.

NO, you didn't miss anything. I had a couple of brain farts and kept writing Morales when I meant Flores. It's either that or I'm a closet bigot and I can't tell the dif between Mexican names.

Approve My Account Pls Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Does changing clubs mean less likely he could get called into camp? Are Wolves secretly playing checkers while we're playing chess? Regardless, seemed like he was starting to find his feet at Wednesday.

archer21 Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Strange move since now he has to acclimate himself to a new team and new tactics.

Dominic94 Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 This a good thing. obviously wolves aren’t thrilled with how he’s been handled, and they rate him and want him to play wing.

Floortom Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 https://academy.wolves.co.uk/news/corbeanus-loan-switches-to-mk-dons/ But Matt Jackson, Wolves’ strategic player marketing manager, believes the move to Stadium MK – where Corbeanu will get regular playing time as the club push for promotion out of the third tier – will be beneficial to the ongoing development of Canada’s Youth Player of the Year. “Theo’s had a fantastic experience up at Sheffield Wednesday, who have treated him brilliantly,” Jackson said. “But he has now an opportunity to go to MK Dons and get some regular game time until the end of the season, in a formation which is best suited for him. “For his football development, we believe this move is a really good option, but the decision was left to the player and after discussions with Theo and Sheffield Wednesday, we’ve come to an agreed plan.” Northvansteve, Kadenge, toontownman and 5 others 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
