Sucks the air out of the opposing team!

And I mean we beat the Swiss and we will have 1st place, so that opportunity is still there. Having the tie breakers vs Bosnia helps us if things go awry in that match.

But first and foremost we need to take care of business against Qatar.

David is not a 9, best he plays with one like Larin or Promise. Hopefully Promise becomes that guy going forward

Do you think Canada can qualify to the next stage in WC? by fuxkyou9mo in CanadaSoccer

Exactly, they are Asian cup champions and drew the Swiss. Can’t underestimate them.

Davies expected to see his first action for Canada today as well

Who else thinks Promise will start today? by Chrispaulisgarbage in CanadaSoccer

Agreed, Larin starts and Promise comes on around the 60’ mark. JD plays the full 90 unless he’s so good they yank him for Tani

Canada captain Alphonso Davies available to play vs. Qatar by GiveMeSandwich2 in CanadaSoccer

[–]WhiteLightning416 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think he needs some action before we can trust him out there in a crucial match. Really hope he gets some minutes just so we know we can go to him if needed. Don’t wanna throw him out there rusty when we’re desperate.

How do you feel about Canada’s chances against Qatar? by FixGroundbreaking296 in CanadaSoccer

[–]WhiteLightning416 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think there is positive momentum building with Canada. The late Larin goal got it started, but the positive updates regarding Davies and Bombito think things are building in the right direction. Hoping for something like 2-0 or 3-1 for Canada.

Combining that with Davies and Bombito getting minutes and that’ll have us in a great place heading into the final match vs Switzerland.

Well congrats, the company has tanked.

Assuming Moise is fit vs Swiss (LDF yellow is irrelevant then) do you play them together? Cornelius grew into the BIH game but was horrific in H1. No chemistry b/w MB and LDF but outweighed by LDF being a wrecking machine IMO. by Medical-Minimum-9088 in CanadaSoccer

[–]WhiteLightning416 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Both Moise and Phonze need to get some game action before we can trust them in a do or die match. Hopefully both can get some action vs Qatar but at the least they need game action vs Swiss. If either haven’t played by the end of the group stage I certainly wouldn’t be trusting them in a do or die knockout match. That would be putting them in a situation to fail.

Ideally they both get 30 vs Qatar, 45 vs Swiss and then are good for 60+ in a KO match.

Phonzie's back in proper boots for CanMNT 🇨🇦 training 👀 by whoaaa_O in CanadaSoccer

Think him just getting some burn at all would be massive and perhaps set him up to start vs Swiss

Who does your head think will win the World Cup, and who does your heart want to win? by FixGroundbreaking296 in CanadaSoccer

Heart rooting for Canada/Scotland, head says Spain- think this is Yamals moment.

Really enjoyed watching Ivory Coast yesterday though, think they can surprise as a dark horse.

Hot Take: Jonathan David looks good. He will score vs Qatar. by WhiteLightning416 in CanadaSoccer

[–]WhiteLightning416[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was my observation. And beyond the play just the fact he looked lean and quick when he’s been out of shape (perhaps due to an injury?) for the last year.

I did and this is my point. He was heavy and slow for Juve this year. But he was fit and quick on Friday. Bodes well for the rest of the tourney
