The Official: Allando Matheson Thread (TFC U16)

[DigzTFC!]

This kid, known as #9 in your highlights from Colorado, has two goals in the tournament in two games. From the highlights, he looks like an absolute beast of a player in terms of potential. He could also turn in to nothing. But at this point, I'm going to let my imagination run wild.:canada:

Here's some info I found:

He can run the 100m in 12 seconds flat. Top notch at that age (He's fast)

Good stuff, that goal he scored against NER was pretty sick.

Looking forward to seeing what happened today, although I'm assuming we're a lock to advance either way?

If these guys are all staying with TFC and not going abroad, we are going to have one hell of a Canadian Local Product Team that will kick ass in the MLS in the next 3 or 4 years.
I whish one day I can see the 11 starters in TFC all Canadians and most of the MLS teams load up with Canadian players.
Our National Team will be the first in CONCACAF.

You might be getting ahead of yourself there, but this is a great start. Hopefully we will have kids come out of our system and stay with the club to become stars in MLS

Best part of Matheson?

He is the only kid on the club who played for NSSC North Scarborough SC.

Also known as the club that developed Julian De Guzman and Andrew Ornoch

NSSC was always the team to beat when I played them in my younger years

Well from what I understand we did win 3-1 but if we lost KC would've been at the top with 9 we would've had 6

PS I'm liking the way Ferreira looks he's a big strong defensive prospect
