The best and brightest CanMNT-eligible prospects
Cristante, Hoilett, Fernandes, and others. The usual suspects but interesting to see how they're doing.
Good stuff from the previous 2 posts. Here's the latest from Major "Ligue" Soccer:
Canada at the World Cup
Canada's national team may have been absent from the World Cup but there was some...
For sure - there was virtually no exposure in Canada, aside from the occasional All-Star game or MLS Cup final (De Ro in overtime, anyone?). I "supported" San Jose due to a friend there and the...
Thanks for reading. I wish Laba never had to leave, but there's a case for Avila as well, doing alright at RB for Chivas this year. Gordo would definitely be a bonus with Dike out. Gotta love...

An XI made up solely of former TFC players who are still active in MLS. Not surprisingly, they'd...
The Rest of the World is Catching up to Canada's women's team
Why more of the same won't cut it in 2015

By the numbers - just how much of an impact can a mid-season DP like Gilardino make?

A Gold Cup in Canada?
New post up with a look at how Canada would host a Gold Cup in the future, or even just Canada's group. In this article I also consider...

A History of Empty Titles at BMO Field

New post up at http://majorliguesoccer.com with an attempt at an XI of unattached and newly released Canadian/American players. Most of them could do a job for Toronto or at least the NASL teams...
New blog post up after some typical post-defeat ruminating. Been impressed with Montreal this year, obviously, and wanted to get something in writing on why we should be on their level, but keep...
So has "401 derby" taken over "SuperClassique Canadienne"? Haha, I liked it, bit Franco-centric but that's almost funny considering their obsession with language.
Here's my thoughts on...
Colombian Exports: a Best XI. My attempt at an all-MLS Colombian XI (minus the goalkeeper, of course).
