Seems people are confusing him with Hutch or something. Sure Vitoria looks slow out there, but he always was. It's not significantly worse than it was. johnyb, The Real Marc and king1010 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, he does need someone beside him who has some wheels, which is why I hope Kennedy develops. costarg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best to wait a bit to see if the rest of the league figures out a weakness in his game. Plenty of players don't last long at the pro level for that reason or take a big step back before reemerging again later. A few starts shouldn't be enough for an international callup. After a few months it starts to make sense. jonovision 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VinceA Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 He's expected to get benched when Nilsson returns from injury, so that can change things drastically for him. sebdeserio and Floortom 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InBorjanWeTrust Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 Fuck, I hope that's not the case. He should definitely be in this camp. But with Kamal out injured, I can see why John would rather have a couple familiar faces there instead. Hiebert is in much better form than Scott Kennedy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stryker911 Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 (edited) Parker and Nilsson were certainly the expected starters. Nelson had surgery a few months ago and won't be ready for at least a few more weeks. Heibert was likely expected to be 3rd on the CB depth chart, but hopefully he plays well enough to force them to keep him in once everyone is healthy. He is arguably the Canadian success story, along with Shaffelburg, so far this MLS season. Edited March 20, 2023 by Stryker911 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanadaFan123 Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 Called up. Wonder if this means that someone is injured or if St Louis is content with Bartlett and Parker for this weekend and want him to come. aredding77, toontownman, Olympique_de_Marseille and 14 others 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dyslexic nam Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 Herdman clearly has an account here and makes decisions based on what we collectively dictate. We can expect Shaff to be called into camp anytime now. Strait Red, Corazon, toontownman and 2 others 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack1997 Posted March 21, 2023 Share Posted March 21, 2023 Honestly not sure if I like this, he’s likely not gonna play a lot and would’ve been better to stay with the team to try to cement his spot even more.

Yeah I’m a little split on it too tbh but maybe we need him or St Louis has given assurances. I believe he is the clubs first ever senior call up so could be a win-win for all.

The reality is we've only seen him in a 8 games for Canada. We've seen equal or better results from Cornelius who has played in more games, plays in a better league and is a starter for his team. At this rate, it's possible that Heibert could leap frog the lot on merit alone. jonovision 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the games Kennedy's played not only has he shown that he brings something unique to the pool with his combination of pace and passing range, but he's been reliable and I can't remember any big blunders from him. The biggest issue for him is staying healthy. Edited March 21, 2023 by sebdeserio toontownman, costarg, Corazon and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
