WCQ: Third Round - Window 3 (November 12-16, 2021)

[Strait Red]

Martin Amuz? I know he’s no where close to being called up by Uruguay but we’ve named almost everyone.

I don't see how it's Ugbo, there is literally articles where he has talked about choosing a nation to play for, not once is Canada mentioned. Every time it is about Nigeria or England, plus I am not sure how much pedigree Chelsea U23 is but I mean... 

Ugbo is probably a long shot, but I don't doubt the pedigree because he's out on loan scored 2 goals in 9 for Genk. Last season he scored something like 16 in 32 out on loan at Club Brugge, Buchanan's next club. Clearly he's a good player.

Isn’t there a Finnish Canadian ?

Kristian Yli-Hietanen but he’s barely been a regular with Lahti so I can’t imagine Finland would want to call him up

Somebody just did one of those free ancestor search weekends and discovered they have CDN roots and immediately called Herdman on his 1-800-WENEEDU hotline for duals.

The only thing holding back Tomori from playing for CMNT is....  Our Minds

Did Ryan Gauld meet a girl in Vancouver, get hitched and obtained citizenship over his past few months playing for the Whitecaps??? I would love for him to join the national team.

Interesting one but I don't think he could get citizenship that quickly.

I specifically asked about Ugbo on the Galindo & Nef  podcast. Galindo did the research and said he’s not eligible for us.

Maybe it’s John Herdman himself or his son that keeps participating in these camps 😆

Ok my official current guess is Ike Ugbo. Fits all the clues and wasn't guessed on twitter. But of course, serious questions about his availability.

But how is he Canadian? His parents drank Canada Dry when they were on vacation in Greenland?

I can’t be the only one who finds it mildly annoying that it seems like we’re always the last country to name our squad LOL

I remember one window the team had to travel to a Caribbean nation for a match, not only we didn’t get as much as a match summary let alone tv coverage, it came out days later the team had to take a boat there 😂

It’s Ugbo. Galindo and Nef are decent but often waaay off.

Was just called up by Serbia u21. As recently as today though a family member of his was on Twitter saying he would file the switch immediately if we were to call him up.

Somewhere on the list of active users, Gareth Wheeler is taking his revenge on everyone but El Hombre for shitting on him every game

It has to be a somewhat notable player if they're making an announcement... Right???

 

Edit: tbf, we had a whole media campaign for Ferreira's one match against the Cayman Islands so i'm just going to expect disappointment

Oh to wield the power that Wheeler has would be glorious.  I can totally see him with a tweet later tonight explaining that it was his kid, at the ripe old age of 1.5 months, that has decided to represent the red and white.   And then laugh for eternity.

Osaze Tafari De Rosario?

 

Well, he does have pedigree - in every sense of the word.

[Gian-Luca]

Apparently there is a new rule set up by the FIFA Vice President where if you help set up a crucial goal in the Euro final and win the tournament, You can still file a one time switch and play for Canada. As such, it is Cristante
