Dominic94 Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 He signed with the club last year, part of their vaunted group of 2003’s. They could have loaned him out this year but didn’t, was also his first bench appearance. Not sure where they stand on him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bison44 Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 (edited) 5'10, 151lbs, 11-23-2003---17years old CDN MID Career Summary Rida Zouhir, a 17-year-old Montrealer, is part of the club's Academy since 2016. He played for the U17 team in 2019, then joined the U23 squad last summer. He represented the Braves D’Ahuntsic before joining the club. “Rida has the character and personality to make his mark in the midfield. Good with both feet, he asserts himself with his professional attitude,” mentioned Patrick Leduc, Impact Academy director. Oops, this is straight off the montreal website.

Enjoy seeing the youth movement at CF and also at TFC ... if only there actually was a youth movement at TFC. They have the players, just need a coach that will put them on the field.

jonovision Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 He had some good moments in the first half but really faded out of the match after that. Scored his penalty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivan Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 I was at the game and watched him pretty closely. I thought he started out a little nervous with a couple bad giveaways, but seemed to grow into the game. Had a good shot on target from outside the box that was well saved by Henry. He took the 5th penalty which surprised me as he had to score to keep CFM alive. It was well taken. I thought he was okay.

Acid-Tone Posted October 28, 2021 Share Posted October 28, 2021 Played the full 90. And was given the responsibility ofthe 5th PK to take in the shootout. Which he converted.

My thinking comes from, what has changed since the U17 qualified for the WC (the team of Hamilton, Aleman, Boakye etc)? That age group was considered to be "the future"....but where are they now. We've been doing the same things, and we have just been fortunate to uncover A LOT of gems.... No actually I'll say that we've been fortunate for these guys to forge their own paths/ make a name for themselves. - Buchanan, Johnston, Kennedy are guys who had no youth caps. 2 of 3 are vital pieces to the mission. - Prior to the U23's Corneilus had zero youth camps/apps. - Shaffelburg had zero youth camps/apps. - Corbeanu had zero youth camps/apps (regardless of the fact he was with Romania) We need consistent camps where we are playing friendlies or tournaments against other nations. The only guy to benefit from a youth appearance got scouted by other nation from the very same game. But it's that exposure that we need for the youth programs to propel guys to the next level, and NOT solely relying on MLS academies to produce products....because it's been a very slow rate.

Oh no, havnt you checked the Herdman thread, everything is completely different and a generational transformation from grassroots right up to the top CSA brass has been triggered by our new messiah.

Francois79 Posted October 29, 2021 Share Posted October 29, 2021 I'm hoping that the CSA will have more $$ with the recent success at the gate, maybe we will see them using this cash towards camp poutine (CPL-MLS players) and U17-19-21, at least give a chance to these kids to show what they can do... just take part of events like the Toulon tournament few years back, isn't that the first time we saw Jonathan David... dyslexic nam, h coach and Shway 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. According to his profile on CanadaSoccer.com he went to 3 U-15 camps, a U-16 camp, and 7 U-17 camps, including the U-17 CONCACAF Championship. After all that he went to Toulon.
