His team is worth the whole can PL how many times over ??? You misunderstand. He'll make a tonne shitload of money if he sells CF Montreal to an owner that wants to take it to the US. He can then start a team in CPL for peanuts, new players and the Impact name. Personally I don't think he'll drop a level, I don't think its his style, but one never knows what goes through anothers head. It remains just a theory, but a possibility.

Maybe after the franchise hits 500-600M usd in 6-7 years, but I just don’t see why do it and does MLS want to lose them ? people are banking on the MLS growth, in the past Montreal drove the league forward with certain players, does MLS need or want them now though ??

dyslexic nam Posted April 17, 2021 Share Posted April 17, 2021 Lots of focus on how tired TFC were this afternoon but the reality is that Montreal were pretty effective and attacked well. Good start to their season. Ivan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moldy9 Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 Tremendous performance by the Club Des Flocons (snowflakes). I don’t give two schitts they’re still impact. As for Nancy I believe he is a higher calibre coach than Henry. Quioto looks like he’s taking off from last season. He had a few good chances. ZBG amazing runs. Mihailovic really impressed me the way he made TFC look like pylons on hwy 20. Waterman really didn’t look good. He got blitzed a couple of times.

costarg Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 They looked good, Nancy finally got the team playing with a real system. Players actually playing the position they've grown up playing in their natural positions is also a nice perk. Just one game, but I can confirm, I'm glad Henry is no longer coach. CFM is deep and has cover in all positions, first time in a really long time. I always believed Miller would develop into a solid CB, he's showing that. Like Djordjie said, I also feel the pundits underestimated this team. RichV and Dominic94 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

costarg Posted April 25, 2021 Share Posted April 25, 2021 CFM looking good thus far. No one expected this two games in. So many new players and coach, its quite an accomplishment. So much for the dumpster fire some were predicting. The system looks solid, they're all playing and running in the same direction, which we could not say last year. They're playing with confidence and seem to be enjoying it. The right side of defence looks week, it'll be targeted next match for sure. There is a gap that can be taken advantage of between the right CB and ZBG. They need to learn to play together, Struna did not look better than Waterman, the same gap was evident. Need Binks back, I just hope he doesn't take Miller's spot, he's looked like the most solid CB. Moldy9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

costarg Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 CFM still beating the odds and showing depth. Midfield with Wanyama - Hamdi - Mihailovic looks very impressive. CFM nor the Impact never had the passing statistics they're putting up under Nancy. They're also looking capable of playing different systems against different teams. Impressive stuff thus far. I haven't enjoyed their games this much in a long time. Acid-Tone 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acid-Tone Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 Top of the Eastern conference!

Chad_Impact Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 (edited) Yeah Nancy really does seem like the real deal, hoping this continues 🤞 The one wish I have is Waterman over Struna. Waterman can make some defensive mistakes but if you can offset those his ball playing ability really shines. Also: Sunusi Ibrahim looks like he can be quite the player Edited May 13, 2021 by Chad_Impact Dominic94 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waterman can make some defensive mistakes but if you can offset those his ball playing ability really shines. I'm sure it'll happen, the slower players (ie: Struna) tend to accumulate cards pretty quick. Camacho has been keeping it clean, but we all know his tendency for brain farts, it's just a matter of time. Even with Binks returning soon, I'm confident we'll see good rotation. Nancy definitely likes to mix it up. That being said, the middle-D and senior role seems to suit Camacho. I'd say he's more responsible when given more responsibility. I'd hate to see a dip in his form when Binks comes back. I'd expect to see Binks in the middle with MIller left and Camacho right. Hopefully they mesh well.

wallflower Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 In a back four Miller - Binks - Camacho - Waterman Waterman not a CB. Maybe his strength is best served in a right fullback role. Struna 3rd CB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides outside of Orlando, Miller is a CB. Chad_Impact 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
