If you look at goal #1 today, De Brienne isn't marking Borges (who has the ball) goal side ON HIS OWN ENDLINE. Borges then turns in towards the Valour net on the end line and passes to his teammate which is the beginning of the sequence for Forge goal #1. There seem to be some fans who think very highly of De Brienne. I am not one of them. He's a defensive liability. Whatever people want to say is his natural position, he's playing LB for Valour. PDS decided to sign Jordan Haynes as our other LB option this offseason. The same Jordan Haynes who was probably the worst player in the CPL last year. Was he a last minute replacement signing? No, he was one of the first two off season signings for Valour this season. I'd love for PDS to explain that one. Glad to see that Siaj isn't doing anything to dispel my concerns over his poor goal scoring record. Edited May 13, 2023 by Soccerpro2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Siaj likely ain't going to cut it. Anyone who makes Walter Ponce look good in comparison is in Frank Jonke territory.

I haven’t watched Haynes this season, but that’s quite harsh imo. Even though I was probably quite critical while he was with Pacific Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haynes this season , Esparza last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not many left backs willing to play for $18k a year? In a league like CPL with a cheap owner, you can't be shelling out good money for guys who will be backups.

Pottsy3 Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 The ref really chose to keep his whistle in his pocket today. At least it was consistent, but I think Valour might've been more hard done by it than us today. First watch of Valour this season. Pacifique was an interesting player, but didn't have the ball too much today. Williams was dangerous in the first half but tailed off. I was most impressed with Sanchez on the ball, a skilled little midfielder. I felt bad for Samake in the backline, feel like he needs some help. Yesli looked good in moments, aside from the result and 3 goals allowed. K Edgar, Soccerpro2 and gator 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
