Training notes: A No. 2 and No. 35 were on the training grounds Thursday, but both were quickly ushered off before the media had a chance to investigate their names ...

At the 12:46 mark of this week’s TFC TV, there’s a player taking part in the scrimmage with a 35 jersey on under a yellow bib - you can only see him from the back. I tried capturing a pic, but couldn’t get it to work.

I tried pausing and using Prt Sc, but every time I save the file it just turns all back. Maybe someone more technically inclined might know how to grab a cap.

My guess, it’s Malcolm Christie.

His shoulders are way too broad to be an asian, as well as his hips. If he is asian he probably would be korean. I just don't see it though. He looks like a european build. Its funny they keep using 35 as the number for trialists.

According to the old clues (international, SPL player, captain of club) the only possibilities that make sense are:

1. Rangers captain Barry Ferguson http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barry_Ferguson
2. Aberdeen captain Scott Severin http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scott_Severin

All other captains are defenders which I have excluded because logically, TFC isn't looking for defenders. Finally, Severin is no longer a Scottish international so I don't know if that changes anything.

Yeah...whats with the stupid comments in this thread? Seriously, do you guys even live in Canada? Not every Asian is exactly the same in stature. I could easily see him being Asian, although I don't think he is an Asian. Many Eastern Europeans have deceivingly Eurasian features and the odds are greater that the guy is from Eastern Europe (a bigger talent pool as far as MLS is concerned) than he is from Asia.

Dude, there's tons of Asians around 6ft... yeah that might not be the norm but I could deifnately see a big Asian playing Pro Footy!

My bet still stands... that guy in that picture above is Asian.
in the TFC TV thing the player has very straight hair something that usually is an asian characteristic. But the picture on this page shows a guy with shorter hair and he looks more white than asian..

guys i think it;s Killia elkinson... on the tfc page it says 36 but with the shity media people on these mls website i wouldn;t be surprised if it wasn;t a mistake...

I am pretty sure if we had a trialist we would have known by now... I mean we knew about Guevara and Robert way before they even stteped on to BMO's pitch...

My bet is it's the korean guy who was just released by Middlesborough, Dong-Gook Lee. He was exploring going back to the K-League where he was a wiz kid. kinda flamed out at Middlesborough but never got much of a regular shot, either.

As someone who does a lot of anatomical studies, that is drawing the same person from different angles, I'd say this is a match.

Hairline... check...
wrists and forearms....check
ear.. check
width and slope of shoulders ......

Think about it, this guy has a Carver connection AND he used to play for the fucking Blizzard!

I suspect we will only hear about who they are if they become serious targets for the team. Otherwise, they might come and go without us ever knowing. It’s happened before - the team trialed both a Mexican and Brazilian player last season, had no interest in signing them, and they’re names never came out.

Why the team wouldn’t be upfront about who’s trialing / training with them is beyond me.

And I have to agree with Exiled. Out of all the reasonable possibilities, Pesch sounds like the most plausible one. I think too much is being made of the guy's apparent Asiatic facial features, something that I don't even see to be honest.

I thought it looked like Rosicky as well - but as said, if he's ruled out of Euro '08 due to a knee injury then it's unlikely he'd be trotting around BMO Field... and then Flush goes and points out that he looks Oriental (well, he said Asian)... and I guess it's possible.

It's likely one of these guys. Taken from the TFC website.


Alex Francis and Olivier Bernard trained with the team on Tuesday. "Alex is young midfielder who has been released by Newcastle. He's been here for a few days for me to have a look at," said Carver. Bernard, 29, played for five seasons with Newcastle United in the Premier League and is training with Toronto to regain fitness after an injury. "He's had an operation on his hip and because we worked with him at Newcastle, we're doing him a favour to get him fit," Carver explained. "He's just here having a bit of a holiday and he's friends with Laurent Robert. He's just here to get himself fit after his surgery."

Do a Google search and you'll find that neither one of those guys looks like the chap in the 35 shirt.

Also, look at his pins - doesn't look much suited to be a professional footballer, does he ? I'm thinking it's just someone's family member mucking about with the team - or an office employee rounding out the numbers - and they're all having a laugh.
