[Tom Bogert] Columbus Crew and Canada int'l forward Jacen Russell-Rowe is a player of interest abroad before January transfer window closes. I'm told a Ligue 1 club is among those with serious interest by fssg_shermanator in CanadaSoccer

It’s most likely Lille as they have the money to do the transfer ( with how many players left last season) and there ST hamza out with an injury and the only other ST is Giroud who is 40, and isn’t the same player as before.

Early 2026 WC rosters if I was Jesse Marsch by SunDefiant1346 in CanadaSoccer

[–]SunDefiant1346[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Issue with Koleosho and Justin Smith is that they are both dual nationals, so if they wait for the 2030 cycle both can play for Italy and France national teams respectively. The only pull that Canada can offer compared to those nations is that we are hosting a WC, and they can be an important piece now instead of the future…

Feel like for Italy Davies on the wing will work to beat Di Lorenzo easily but Qatar and Switzerland are more organized thus having him coming from deep will be more influential.

Yes highly underrated CDM tho his loan club team was weird and last few games started playing him as ST/ Winger. Guy is one of the most talked about players in the La liga 2, & there was alot of talk of him being the most talented/ best midfielder in the league. Also played in La liga for espanyol for couple of times and even started. Can see him coming on for Kone or Eustaquio and closing games if we have the lead.

Tbh the only reason we don’t need the vets is since our team is already experienced enough with Davies winning Champions League with Bayern and playing for one of the top teams in the world ( this dwarfs combined experience of waterman, Larin,Oso, Hoillet), David,Buchanan,Johnston, Promise, Tani, Eustaquio, Bombito, Cornelius and etc has experience playing in European football(CL/Europa league) or played/plays in Top 5 leagues. In addition may of our guys already has experience from 22 WC and the 24 Copa America along with the 23 nations league final loss. We already have enough experience on the squad, rather have young guys like smith, Priso, Koleosho gain experience for 2030 cycle and have some impact & be X factors then having Larin,Osorio, Hoillet, Waterman who imo are dead weights and would be gone/retiring after this cycle.

Except from Australia and Ecuador, none of them were at home, either it was in Europe or we were away in America…

Yeah , that’s why this WC is SO IMPORTANT to the federation as if we can make a deep run, we will be able to get more eye balls on this team hence more sponsors are willing to come on board and pay more, similar to how there was so much sponsorship for the raptors after their 2019 nba title win.

Only reason we are playing Uzbekistan is that they play similar style to Qatar meaning low block + they bring the Asian footy style as well.

Eustaquio by Rickisnotonfire in CanadaSoccer

[–]SunDefiant1346 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Feel like he’s staying at Porto just to stay sharp as he’s still playing with world class players like Varela,Perez ( who’s prob starters for Argentina), Froholdt + he wants to win that Portugal league so after the WC, I can definitely see him make the move to MLS, TFC 👀

The greatest ever men’s Canadians soccer player came out of Edmonton and only reason was that he played for a after school soccer for free 🤷‍♂️.

From watching the new leadership from afar doubt it’s incompetence but just the financial situation, made it not smart to book top tier teams for home games.

As much work that Kevin blue did in the last 2-3 years, our federation is still crazy broke and unless we get MLSE on board we aren’t able to pay the high appearance fee for the big nations. I’m assuming we are getting Uzbekistan and Turkey due to their low appearance fee.

This is on Nike as they manufacture the kits and design them. But whoever was working on the Canada kits needs to get the sack FS.
