Ummm it’s a tease it’s not the actual jersey from what I’m gatheringThat jersey design is a direct ripoff of Hokusai's The Great Wave. Love the print, hate the jersey.
Yes, it's just a semi-serious photo-chop by the team. I'd take it to mean there will be a sublimated wave-shape or something behind the usual Adidas fare – probably far too subtle.Ummm it’s a tease it’s not the actual jersey from what I’m gathering
Last season really soured me. Hopefully this season sees steps forward but I really don't think the team can make the necessary progress until Lenarduzzi is gone. He simply isn't good enough for this level of soccer.
Problem was always ultimately ownership. Just like Aquaman will still be the owner of the Canucks if Benning is gone.Lenaeduzzi *is* gone. It's the Schuster and Pannes show now.

They are also feeling out of their depth, as the competitiveness (and related price tags) of MLS has ballooned since they joined. The Whitecaps are definitely a have-not in MLS, and this has of course fuelled a lot of speculation that they will eventually sell their slot to another city and plunk the Whitecaps down in CPL.Tbh I don't think it is. Ownership wants to make money, they were willing to give sweetheart jobs to guys like Furlong and Lenarduzzi as long as the ledger was black. But now since the fans are demanding a winning squad (and voting with their wallet), they're bringing in more credible front office guys and splashing some cash.

As I always say at least once a season -- Aquilini's deep pockets and win-now management style would be perfect for the Whitecaps.

Report: Bayern Munich to offer Alphonso Davies lucrative new contract in wake of huge win over Chelsea
There's a LOT of (deserved) hype for Davies right now."In terms of maturity, physicality, and sheer talent, Davies is perhaps one of the top players young players in Europe at the moment". Quite the accolade for Davis. Also learned his nickname is Phonzie.
Honestly, he's the type of striker we've needed for a while. A complete forward that doesn't necessarily always need to be served up chances on a platter. He can create a lot on his own. He's fast. He's strong. He's a great finisher.To post about actual Whitecaps, I'm genuinely excited to see what Cavallini can do. He could be one of the top strikers in the MLS this season.
Hopefully the rest of the team can support him well enough. Their midfield still looks like it lacks talent like it always does.
Whitecaps owners are happy to...in Davies transfer fees funding their retirement funds. They still want another diamond in the rough to fund their lifestyle currently. Maybe throw back a few loonies at the Southsider plebs to keep them happy.Gotta say, it is pretty surreal watching Davies right from the beginning of his Whitecaps career, seeing him develop and mature and now seeing him as a starting player for arguably a top 5 club in the world.
Honestly one of the main reasons I watch sports; to see amazingly talented athletes mature into superstars. Really is a sight to behold.
