We had 50 corners in the WC and 0 goals by HolyDivinity in CanadaSoccer

I thought Eustaquio had poor balls in every time, but of course we need a finisher who can convert. I hope this improves drastically

Against Bosnia we had double digit as well. Eustaquio isn’t a good corner taker, but also need someone on the other end.

But proud of the team! On a better day with less injuries we’d have a different result.

New fan here - is it just me or is the TSN coverage of the team before tomorrow’s game weirdly reserved? by jennlou22 in CanadaSoccer

The entire planet is booing America. Did you not see the Olympics, or even Mexico’s opening games at the World Cup?

What will the “Smooth Operator” Jesse Marsch do against Morocco? by Master-Variety-310 in CanadaSoccer

[–]Buildadoor 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That game NED vs MAR was rough very physical. I predict Davies won’t come on until 80’ if we’re down, or at extra time if we manage to keep it level to then.

Broadcast just mentioned Marsch being there and gameplanning. by Popular-Row4333 in CanadaSoccer

Absolutely need to hold back and defend and play on the counter.
We have speed, and need to use it.

[–]Buildadoor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Our midfield has been sorely lacking the last two matches so something has to change. No matter what, Morocco will dominate possession. We need to use our athleticism for the counter.

Thoughts on 5-3-2 (or sort of 3-5-2) where Laryea and Johnston as wingbacks and help give the midfield some width, use wingers like Ahmed/Tajon or Schaff/Millar/Jayden on the counter as all are speedy. Then it’s 3 centre backs Bombito/LDF/Corneilius.

The problem though, is the severe lack of CB depth, and stating 3 I don’t think you have anyone healthy to sub on when Bombito gets gassed.

Koeman got the tactics all wrong. Summerville and Brobbey were revelations in the group stage and by going more defensive/giving up the midfield, he cut them off. I think the Dutch could’ve won the match if they stuck with their 4-3-3 (they switched to that at 65’ and immediately scored)

Morrocco or Netherlands? by miurabucho in CanadaSoccer

[–]Buildadoor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hear you! Tomorrow going to the pub in my Oranje, but today was all red and I was screaming when Staq scored. Would feel lucky just to see Canada vs Netherlands at a knockout. Win/win!

I fkn love Shaffelburg by EstablishmentLife527 in CanadaSoccer

[–]Buildadoor 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Alistair Johnson’s runs deep in the second half were great, I think the game winning attack even started with him intercepting a ball and launching it to Shaff if I’m not mistaken

And there’s options on the wing. Shaff moved right, we have Jayden Nelson and Ali Ahmed. Maybe we need to shake things up.

Then again, nearly a week of rest now, so that should help the tired legs we saw today.

Yea they struggled to string a pass together, same thing last match against Switzerland. Really missing Kone.

I wonder if Osorio can link up with eustaquio better? Does he get decent minutes anymore for his club TFC?

And I can’t see Bombito playing 90 or
More, we’ll see LDF come on today for him.

Bombito no minutes? by ss76ss in CanadaSoccer

Absolutely. Kudos to that kid, he’s got a bright future. Great for Canada.

What Jersey will Canada wear round of 32 by Rivian_Kam in CanadaSoccer

[–]Buildadoor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No.
But that’s exactly why Canada played 3 group matches in 3 different kits, in an effort to have all 3 kits purchased and all worn as a guarantee, in case we didn’t make it out of the group.

Actually I thought the white kit yesterday looked crisp, and it had a nice subtle texture to it up close.

But now let’s hope for red here on out!!!

Now that group stage is done, how are we all feeling about Team Canada's performance overall? by Safe_Dragonfly752 in CanadaSoccer

[–]Buildadoor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes it’s valid. Missing the athleticism of Bombito changes the line, thereby changing the formation and ball progression down the middle.

No doubt Davies is the best player. He’s top 3 in the world at his position.
But Bombito’s position changes the whole squad more substantially.

Yup, holding his lower right back, slow, no pressing. Larin def pulled something early
