toontownman Posted December 3, 2022 Share Posted December 3, 2022 Feel like there is a fair chance Dunn might not be retained at Ham Kam following his injury. Hopefully he recovers and gets a chance but I'd love him back in Winnipeg if not. K Edgar 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other options who played for both FC Manitoba and UofS that Put in good performances could be Kevin Garic (defence) and Diego Reveco (midfield). To expand on this a little, Reveco (a Winnipegger) is considered a "set piece specialist" and can play in a variety of attacking roles, much like Dyer. He has also had time abroad (Italy, Spain and Mexico). Garic (also a Winnipegger) is one of those defenders who can play at CB or Full Back, but can also fill in as a holding midfielder if needed.

Although, there is right footed, creative midfielder Alessandro Calado who is 19 and spent the U-Sports season with York and getting 2 goals in 2 appearances.

It says "additions" meaning more than one. Things have just got more interesting. They are now saying acquisitions (plural)... Jérémy Gagnon-Laparé?

I'm going to call it and say that they are CPL players. Lets look at who has left, Levis, Rea, Ascanio, Forbes and Dyer from midfield and attack. As Yesli has re-signed, I wouldn't expect a keeper just yet. JGL could be a good shout. K Edgar 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(replacement for Levis) Not that bad of a player. Hope he isn't the one who will be there tomorrow though, as that would be a bit of a disappointment announcing him the day before.

Ok, going back to this (again). "Returning players". Are we talking returning players other than the 9 already confirmed or will it just be some of the 9?

Could we also hope for Valour naming a new striker? Or I am asking for too much? On a different note, could Valour make an announcement related the new Canadian pro women's league?

VinceA Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 Did they confirm the likes of Mikhael aren't returning? I just remember Valour saying these guys' contracts were up but were negotiating with "some" but weren't clear with who exactly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would like to see both Romeo and Mekideche return. I think Meki would come good in a full season and Romeo would be a good one to build into another AJB-style imposing CB. A new striker would be an obvious choice for the announcement. Am I right in thinking that Valour already have some sort of womens team? Hope the weather doesn't have too much of a negative effect on the town hall though. K Edgar 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bent must be close. He unfortunately hasn't developed past his blazing first season. I had high hopes for him but it hasn't worked out in Halifax. wallflower 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnigMattic1 Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 I know he would take an international slot, but I would take a punt on Santos. He is reliable at the back and could work well with AJB. I believe he can also play as a full back too. JGL would be a good addition to the midfield.

I do wonder if there was something more to the story... some kind of personnel disagreement or trouble with coach, etc. He was definitely off but that is not characteristic. However, on another note... does anyone else see the resemblance between Haynes and Dos Santos? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
