Have at It People
I want to see a thrashing of these stiffs in the ugly blue jerseys.
1 point eliminates Vancouver and 3 points guarantees us a minimum of a tie for 1st with Montreal in the Canadian Championship qualifying
A tie in points would still push the Reds through with the head to head.Quote:

We want to be up by more then 6 points on Montreal after we play our last game. Do not want to rely upon Vancouver to get a result of any kind against Montreal in those last 2 games.
I expect Montreal to try a high press this game - they will have their full squad available including Tadir & Piette. This game will be tougher in the midfield but their defence is going to be tired with 3 games in a week.
A healthy Jozy going at their defence would be useful.
Healthy or un interested....the guy has talent but at 6 mil & a DP slot that is used 30% of the time ...I'm ready to say good byeQuote:

Things are going to get a lot tougher when this team has to enter the US and effectively play out the rest of the season on the road.
Agreed. Bank as many points as possible. Love seeing the team at the top of the standings again.Quote:

I wonder if the Canadian teams are thinking of forgoing going to the US, thus not take the COVID risk that would come with it. Just play a whole number of games between them 3 clubs? In some eyes it may be the better route to take? The big question would be how would the rest of the league think about it?Quote:

Phase 2 is happening with US teams, just final kinks are being straighten out with regards to Home games.

I like it. Although, I would like to see Vanney double down on and make attacking subs more often rather than position the team to defend for the last 20 minutes.Quote:

Canada gets insurance goal and it was game over.
When everyone’s healthy, we have enough attacking depth to do this. And to be frank, the backup options in midfield and defence (with the exception of fullback) generally aren’t as good. We should play to our strengths.
what's the over/under on Jozy being injured between now and game time?Quote:

Worst thing would be for them to over extend themselves in first game back after a while and get injured especially with Mullins out. Too bad we didn’t at least have the Achara option but it is what it is. Looking forward to a good game hopefully with some more shots on net and goals compared to last game.Quote:

Really interesting point, but have to disagree with this one. We have real depth in midfield - Poz, Piatti, Oso, Bradley, Delgado, Fraser, DeLeon are all starting calibre, all have started for us and those not starting can be fresh legs. Plus Laryea can be a wide midfielder, Gallardo exists, and we have two young Canadians who have earned minutes with good play in Florida.Quote:
