He’s 26 year old and coming off the season of his life. He needs to take his shot now - no guarantee he’ll ever have a chance like this again.

We’re lucky to have Thomas and Peter and the Northern Futbol podcast. Their knowledgeable insights and passion for the game are a bonus for the Canadian Soccer fan. It’s great that they are also able to provide a forum for our players to share their thoughts and experiences and have fans get to know these players better. I really enjoyed hearing Scott’s discussion with Thomas and Peter. He shared his humble focus and discipline … his passion for the game and competitive spirit … his commitment to continuous improvement. He makes me proud and continues to inspire me.

As someone who attended every Pacific game, as well as countless games at Clarke in Edmonton and other smaller venues before then, I can assure you that Westhills numbers did not feel greatly inflated. No matter how many times you bring this up

Here are the stats. https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/teams/charlton-athletic/top-scorers He leads the team in assists despite having played just over half a season. He has 2 goals which should be more, agreed. He has shots, puts them on net, but does not score. Needs to finish better or with more accuracy, even a slight improvement, saying having scored a couple more, would be significant on the stat sheet. It is also worth rethinking finishing in cases like his. There are days Messi just passes the ball firmly into the corner of the net. Higuain in his prime was very ac

He played very well today against Braga; made a nice run and almost scored in the second half. Dominant in his tackling today, and with Costa out, he came further up the pitch and drove everyone forward. Great to see him and Pacos back in form.

Larin now 23rd all-time on the Besiktas scoring charts (all comps I believe). One behind Yilmaz of all people.

Yea not me. Our team is the one to be feared. They haven't added any world class players, or champions from top leagues. No top scorers in the eredivise. If we are getting worried about Surname, than we have no place in the Octo - they will be our meat and drink next month.

Understandably, many of us have a favourable bias towards Cdn MLS players,because we see them play a lot. How many have watched Sam and Valerenga over the past 3 seasons? Sam has played 77 games..most of them starts/ 90 mins and will be playing Europa next season. 110 appearances in MLS/Allsvenskan/Eliteserien and 1 game in the English Championship. Regardless of whether MLS is better than Eliteserien, you simply can't ignore that level of experience for a defender in our squad in "win or go home WCQ". He has 12 caps for the CMNT including 2 at the 2017 GC. I thought he was excellent at LB

A tiny sample, but the sequence where he shielded the ball and dribbled out of pressure to play the pass into Gaspar is something that he does so well. Finds solutions. Those who have watched him will know he's special on the ball, different to what we have in the national pools.

Congrats to Alphonso Davies on winning another Championship! Now, Bayern, please let Alphonso play in a more attacking role for these final 3 games. 😜

I don't understand how that's being allowed.

Hate to correct this, but he's in second/tied for first. Andrew Shinnie is rated ahead because he has 1 more goal then Liam, but also has played two more games then him. In addition to that stat, it's the chances created that also excites me. That's where he leads! I think in reference to the national team, I want all our wingers to be able to create chance first for Larin, David, Cavillini before being goal scorers. Because as we can see, we have a guy who can create these chances effortlessly and we have guys who can put them away. Very great loan for Liam....next up is a tea

So Liam Fraser eh... down at the Columbus Crew huh...hope he gets to play lots of minutes. Could be very pivotal for his career. #endthecovidtalkinthisthreadrespectfully

Even with the slow start, anyone who doesn’t consider this year a success for David has their head up their ass. The key goals he got - including the winner against PSG while injured - make this a slam dunk. Sure it wasn’t ideal at the start, but you can’t argue with the second half of the season he has had.

Two games left against St Etienne and Angers, currently 12th and 13th. Win, and Lille are champions no matter what PSG does. Two more games boys.

Does playing games in Florida in June really help us vs guys from the Caribbean/Central America? All our EU based guys don't play games in 35c before factoring humidity. I feel this is a pretty major disadvantage.

79 league appearances. Vanney must've really hated that guy.

Not really he had his chances never really impressed like Osorio did and Laryea did when they were given their chances . All power to him if he does well in Miami more depth for our national team if he does well at Miami , but in my opinion didn’t do much at TFC when given the chance .

I don't understand how people can argue about something like speed with someone named Cheeta.😁

Resurrecting a bit of a dead thread but he's starting against Nashville and has been lively so far almost had a goal and an assist good to see him still be an MLS level player.

3 games in June are crucial...need a tie at minimum vs Suriname and Win the 2 match series vs Haiti or its the end of WCQ 2022. There is no way JH is going to take anything but his very best team. Not the time to take a look at players unless there is an extended squad. There should be no balancing between GC and WCQ at least for our "A" players. The GC is where we should look at assessing and increasing our player pool

So Delgado causes a goal, makes double-digit turnovers, can’t create any offence, while Nelson shows a bit of skill and spark, and they remove Nelson for Soteldo??? Armas may just be Vanney Part 2 Edit: I see they move Delgado inside but then same argument can be made for keeping Priso over Delgado.

He's scored 10 in his last 15 games. That's a pace of 24 goals over the course of a full season and comparable to last season with Gent

Skip to the 15:00 mark Question: What are your goals this season? Answer: To solidify my position in the starting XI and to get more (regular) calls to the #CanMNT Question: How was it to work with the other #CanMNT fullbacks in camp back in March, like Adekugbe and Laryea? Answer: They are very good players and I am always learning and it was an enjoyable experience.

Interview with Michele Paolucci of FC Manitoba from today (google translate) "Now all the owners of the club are organizing to create a new independent league in Canada and we are therefore committed to the development and planning of this league. This year we will start with a sort of tournament, around Canada that will serve us to attract sponsors and our forecast is to start in 2022 to start with a real season , starting from scratch. A new and exciting project " . https://footballnews24.it/michele-paolucci-in-esclusiva-la-juventus-un-sogno-in-un-momento-sbagliato-su-pirlo-e-ronal

I suspect if he plays another year and maintains his level and we qualify for 2022, you gotta expect he plays another to be in the World Cup

Man of the Match today vs Lincoln (according to Fotmob). 8.4 rating. 1 assist, 4 chances created. 87% pass accuracy.

Nobody is denying that. We are still the better team on paper. We are still the better ranked team. We have shown we are the better team on the field. It's been mentioned in the Jamaican thread, about all their incoming players/ and not having chemistry. Same can be said here, but worst. All of our guys have had a few years of playing with each other, and knowing the coaches "system". It's not arrogance or ignorance. We just need to eliminate the defeatist mentality. Same thing OZ was trying to mention. Call me overconfident, but I see a convincing win happening. As

TFC completely lost the midfield battle as soon as Priso and Nelson were taken off

England Dan Jebbison is on the Sheffield United bench vs Palace Makes his debut in the 63rd minute

on short notice, but they play at 10am on DAZN.

I would blame it more on Montreal, his final product does need work yes, but he certainly has the instincts and brings it forward a ton.

Is there any other image of a #CanMNT player that has been tattooed onto someone?

^^^ Boooo..😉 Indy attracts the higher quality MLS fringe guys and prob has the one of the higher payrolls in USL-C. He went from getting 4 goals in 7 starts with TFC just 2 summers ago, the guy prob should be on an MLS roster somewhere. But playing on one of the bigger USL-C teams making decent money and getting a starters work load isnt too shabby. If he kills it with Indy, he might get right back up to MLS. He just turned 25..time to live up to his potential.

Some might argue that you get exactly the level of respect that you earn around here.

How did Vanney kill this prospect? He got something like 4-5 years to show his stuff.

The love is mutual. Besiktas have become my one of my favorite European clubs. Now let's all flood Ferdi's instagram and twitter with the hashtag #cometocanada

In the first team squad officially now. Likely to be on the bench tonight.

11 guys it is then

He has one year remaining on his first contract with Besiktas which we can assume to be of modest pay. Playing out the final year is a massive financial gamble for both Cyle and Besiktas. These situations usually force a lucrative new deal or a transfer. I predict the latter. This is Cyle's chance to get an 8 figure payday and for Besiktas to get a much needed cash infusion.
