Dest out is rough. brooks is an interesting decision, but his form has been poor. Generally fine with the squad given the options.

Jesus christ Canada's attack is going to be even more loving terrifying.

Man him and Cavallini off the bench to replace David and Larin?

Shame about our subpar defending though

Edit: also poor Akinola just switched allegiances, got hurt on his very first game then this....now he's like the 6th striker.

you can have reggie cannon or deandre yedlin for a striker who is better than josh sargent

All of our defenses suck and our soccer is bad and that's just the way we like it.

Do we need an eighth striker? Would still probably take him over Cava though.

He can play mid/winger just as easily though. He'd be a great super sub after the speedsters wear down the opposition.

Also I would be okay with Canada playing a 1-1-8 with that firepower haha


And Cava is the last striker. I doubt seriously he'll get any minutes since they need to cap tie Ugbo as fast as possible.

Have a feeling Millar is going to become that winger/attacker super-sub, he's been putting in work in Switzerland. Little more for the future as well.

It's funny - last go around when he came on as a sub he was frantic as all hell - very scatterbrained appearance.

He started the next game and was much much much better. It was such a stark difference.

There was big change in the federation, the sporting director committee was changed and

https://twitter.com/tdmas_cr/status/1457040291832213508?s=20

They called up pretty much the same bunch of clowns. Also 3 of the 4 new names on the list don't have Canadian visas so they wont make the trip.

If Keylor gets one of his mystery national team injuries, we're screwed. If he does come down to play, we might be screwed anyway.

And ESPNews is showing a women's basketball game that still has about 8 minutes of game time to play (meaning approximately a million minutes with commercial timeouts and all).

ESPN2 now has a very optimistic "kick at 9:10" flag in the corner, which considering that there's 8 minutes left in the game and it's 9:02 indicates that, uhhh, it ain't gonna happen.

Ridiculous poo poo.
