Because it's a terrible feeling when your team relies on Chad Barrett to carry the offence. :facepalm:

I'm going to be optimistic and he's going to score 10 goals in all competitions. He's been consistently scoring around 8 goals and I have a feeling he's going to get a lot of playing time. And somehow he gets his share of scoring chances.

Plus he has pretty good chemistry with DeRo ever since DeRo took him under his wing... Yes, I am grasping at straws. :D

I voted 3-5. Might as well start the bar low.

I would like to see who is on the team before making a comment on how many goals he'll get. Since we have only 16 players (since Gerba is trying to get out of his contract), that leaves us with 2 strikers (White and Barrett). It also depends on where they put DeRo and Peterson.

+ 15 if he gets service and finally learns to hit the net anything is possible

He scored more than that last year and played most of the season out of position.

DangerRed
03-18-2010, 03:04 PM
In his recovery video on the TFC web site he says that he'll miss the first couple games but if he can hold the forward spot for the rest of the season, he is "confident" he can score 10.

15+...my predictions can't be as bad as the team has been in the pre-season...so I'm going big.

I think it's safe to say DeRo is going to play 2nd striker unless something drasticallyl changes

i said 6-8, i think our offense will be dismal and OBW probably get a good share of playing time up front with DeRo

I voted 3-5, but he has consistently been close to ten (on avg) for his whole career.

I wouldn't be surprised to see him get 8. But I'll stick with my low ball estimate.

prizby
03-18-2010, 04:13 PM
i saw his picture

and voted 15 +

then i realized the picture was not Wayne Rooney

Awesome, ZING. I voted 9-11 as well, but that will be my fall-back. If Chad fails, it just means I was trying to call for help...

I'm down for 9-11, at least he always gives it his all unlike some others. Got to respect that.

i say 6,but he will miss 15 sitters and he will cramp up 8 times at the 70th min

KezmanCCCC
03-18-2010, 10:00 PM
id like to say 9-11 this seasons... even though thats not alot for a "main striker"... well maybe it is for MLS... but i agree with everyone in saying he will miss a fair number of clear cut chances...

Done.

Only DeRo will get more goals than him. That sounds about right.

I USE to dammit!
.........................did i seriously tell you those stories?
anyways; i've bet that i've scored with more fat chicks then barrett will put balls in the net this year
quote me on that

I also have a feeling that Barrett will have a good season this year. I put him down for 6-8, but I've got a feeling that he'll get around 10.

in MLS, you are considered a really good striker if you get 12 a season. just saying...

10 is very attainablke for him, but Ihave a feeling everyo ne on the pitch will play goal supplier for DERO. .

/ he is jus talways in the right spot and thats why he leads this club in goals.

It's a shame we can't give Barrett a lobotomy. When he doesn't think, he scores.

Cashcleaner

I'd be happy to see him get 6-8. More would be great, but I'll admit I don't have high expectations for him.

Pachuco
03-19-2010, 09:13 AM
I say 10 in all competitions. that includes friendlies.

DangerRed
03-19-2010, 09:52 AM
A good 75 percent of the time, Chad overcooks his touch before shooting and that's what gets him blocked or missing wildly. He can definitely hammer them home, but I definitely wasn't inspired with confidence by what he was doing towards the back end of last season.

It's funny, you might think he's shit and can't hit the broad side of a barn, but he's also the only thing we've got right now. I wish him the best (and I can't believe I'm saying that about him).

Cashcleaner
03-19-2010, 10:44 AM
^ That's the real crux of the matter, isn't it. He IS all we got, so we might as well throw our support behind him.

If people think Chad Barrett is going to score a lot of goals then they must think Walter Mondale was president in 1984.

P-NUTZ
03-19-2010, 11:19 AM
i say 11+. he's a good, hard working player. needs to get the shot off a little sooner sometimes, but he CAN and WILL score.

...but should probably play outside mid anyways.

TFC Tifoso
03-19-2010, 12:44 PM
considering the whole team will probably score about 20 goals all season, I'd say Chazz is good for 3......

The funny thing is...if you listed the top 5-6 TFC goals ever from a technical/ability standpoint he'd have 2 of them. The goal against Montreal last year and the free kick at Colorado 2 years ago.

That's pretty sad considering how bad he's been for us.

Still the goal against montreal was sweet.

Stouffville_RPB
03-19-2010, 02:13 PM
^ Not really sad. He doesn't score but when he does they are nice.

Makes it frustrating if anything. Seeing the talent but not on a consistent basis.

Dave67
03-19-2010, 02:19 PM
I've got him down for more red cards than goals this year. I'll go with 2 goals & 3 red cards. I suspect he will try too hard to impress Preki and get into card trouble early this year.

celt-nick
03-19-2010, 04:02 PM
I'm gonna go out on a limb here but I think he'll go 15+ this year. I think with the right people in his corner this year, his finish will come.

LesH
03-19-2010, 08:01 PM
8 goals.
And this will be a good enough year for Chad.

He will score when we need it this year. Without him in the preseason we look awful we have to atleast have some hope!!

LesH
03-20-2010, 09:50 PM
It looks Chad with DeRo will need to score almost all our goals this season, and maybe JDG will pitch in with a few too.
Others on this team look like can not score one even if they would try 3 seasons instead of just this one. :(:facepalm:

CretanBull

You mean Short Bus? Man, that boy has more than the recommended amount of left feet for a professional, methinks.

I put him at 0-2 just because I can't imagine attending a TFC game without yelling 'NO SHORT BUS! STAY AWAY FROM THE BALL!'

this could be very accurate if they keep playing like they did on Saturday.

I put 3 - 5 goals. I just hope they are in the right net.

Unfortunately, we don't have Blanco on our team, so don't expect a repeat from Barrett. Hell, even I could score 10 goals with Blanco supplying me goals on a plate.
