Barely broke into a jog tracking back on a late Orlando attack. Might have just hit a poor spell in the game. I'm assuming it's the heat. Wanyama has looked horrible in the 2nd half. toontownman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dominic94 Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 Looks like he and Zouhir will get the bulk of the minutes alongside Wanyama… I’d think Piette is gone soon… Giraldo on the bench and they still have Saliba in the mix… no wonder Catavolo went to Valour..

I wouldn't write off Piette quite yet. They definitely missed a player with his qualities in this game. Orlando passed it through the midfield far too easily all game.

Tyler55 Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 This is a decent point from Wheeler, at this point it seems Piette is unlikely to be back in time so we will likely see at least one new face in midfield. toontownman, Dominic94, narduch and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know he has had limited time to shine but I have really like what I have seen from him so far. His skill and composure is great for a kid his age, and he looks like he will become a beast physically. I wouldn’t be opposed to trying him out considering how well he has been playing for Montreal. Edit: I hadn’t actually watched the clip when I posted so didn’t realize I used the same terms to describe him lol. He really is someone I would consider though.

toontownman Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Nef and Galindo were talking another it too. Paton seems likely, he has been in the camp before and is in good form for Ross County. Kone could be a dark horse for getting in, if he is eligible and continues to play. narduch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atlantic Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 I am nitpicking here but Wheeler mentions Fraser as an option but he was already called up last window and I’d imagine will be again automatically toontownman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dominic94 Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Tbh, Kone is looking like a can’t miss, it’s early but reason to get excited. toontownman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
An Observer Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 Paton is more of a 10 and if Oso is a no go, more a replacement for him; Kone is more of a box to box midfielder so more of a replacement for Atiba (or a MAK if he was questionable) and to a lesser degree Piette. I think it will depend on who is available and in form as to whether Kone or Paton or both get called. PastPros 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gian-Luca Posted March 12, 2022 Share Posted March 12, 2022 TFC released photos of Osorio training yesterday (the day after the alleged injury report) in their Facebook account and unlike Shaffelburg he is not listed as being injured for tomorrow’s match. Granted, if Pierre and Atiba can’t go they will have to call in another two CM to replace them from the roster for the last window, so there may be an opportunity for a surprise call anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dyslexic nam Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 Definitely wouldn’t mind seeing him brought in. For a guy who has come completely out of left field (at least for me) he has looked very good from what I have seen. To play the way he is playing, at his age, is pretty exciting.

Ally McCoist Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 (edited) Now with the rumours that Kone is being called up to the MNT this clip is interesting in hindsight (I promise you Wheeler isn't saying anything stupid in here). I'm wondering if Wheeler knew beforehand or heard of some rumblings in the background... Also, another thing that strikes me as odd is that Kone has basically zero professional experience. And we know Herdman is a stats guy, he keeps mentioning his stats teams in interviews. I'm wondering if the very rapid cap tying of Kone has anything to do with his stats team seeing some major potential in this guy. Cause I feel like Herdman isn't the type to naturally jump to a guy without reason.

Kone has the talent so maybe Herdman just wants to cap tie him as soon as possible. But to be honest I don't see it happening in this last window. Maybe Nations League. Ismael had a great first game but he has looked meh the rest of the games. The kid needs a few dozen more games to settle in.

Kadenge Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 I really don't think we have to worry about the Ivory Coast calling him. They have loads of mids playing in top 5 leagues. I would be surprised if he was part of our main group vs being on the the taxi squad. He has very few pro minutes johnyb and Corazon 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to separate his personal style from the role assigned to him by Nancy but for me he'd be a backup to Osorio for Canada, moreso than Eustaquio or Atiba. Based on the 5 matches I've seen. Montreal fans may correct me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
