I think the strategy is to encourage our players to play in real leagues with high powered offenses

Not bad but you can really see the difference between Canada and more experienced international teams - Canada just lacks the cutting edge that other teams do.

Not even sure it's a question of player quality, not sure what it is.

4-1 I feel was a bit unflattering

It'll teach our kids coming up in the system that it might not be glamorous but teams live and die in the midfield-- and also that feminine hygiene products are as much of a human right as water and shelter

Yeah a lot of panicky play in both boxes by Canada and there is a definite lack of quality in the defence imo.

Still happy they haven't been run off the pitch in either game so far

Tempered expectations. It was always a huge long shot to get out of the group.

What sucks is from a GD perspective they're worse than 1986, even though they played so much better than 1986.

Hopefully we can see some positive elements on Thursday.

We got 4 years to develop new midfield depth and defenders worth a drat.


Hope there's more dual nationals we can poach

Get fifabux to go around kidnapping and forceably patriating good defenders and midfielders

Fifabux to hook our next generation up to a machine that zaps them every time they press the "score hatties" button instead of the "score team wins with boring, fundamental defense" button

yeah, the irony is that I'd 100% rather take Canada right now than a bad team for losers like the United States or Mexico

they've got great quality counter-attacking play, but you need to be able to convert that to goals against top teams whose defenders won't stop running when they reach the halfway line, otherwise it's just a whole bunch of running the ball forward then having no idea what to do with it and trying to play a pass to feet in front of the defender
