Something to be said for simple plays.. Saliba on the field and immediately making them where older players haven't been.
Yes!!!!!!!!!!!

Ended up watching this one on FS1 because reasons. Did I ever enjoy the pxp and colour commentary. Refreshing.
Good win for the coach on home soil. Looked like a nice crowd on a cold day in T.O.
That was one of the better games I feel I have seen from David for the CNMT. Kudos.
New soccerman crush on Bombito! Stellar effort all game.
Am I crazy or is St. Clair looking like a better option than Crepeau?
Seeing all these "new" names on the squad making plays and proving we have some serious depth... LOVE IT.

Jessie will stay with Creps until given a reason not to but that rush out of goal was a really poor decision. He's fallen to number two in Portland behind our own James Pantemis.
I watch every Nice game in France to watch Bombito.. Nice play pretty open with a back 3 and Bomb has to cover alot of ground. He's playing well in Ligue 1.
On form St Clair has been our best keeper.. Pantemis also solid. See what next window brings.
JD was on it tonight.
I can't feel my face. But it was a good time.
Liam Millar really showed his class over Shaff. Really worked well with Phonzie. Bombito is a machine.
My biggest concern was the shady hot dog I ate from a vendor near gate 1
The rise of Bombito still has my head spinning a little. It's very impressive how far he's come in a relative short amount of time.

He is an absolute revelation... Here's hoping we luck into a long term partner for him.
Other than atrocious reffing and the first sign of winter, the only real dark spot was how simply picked apart we were on the goal. We can't afford to fall asleep like that.
Grasping at straws though. We could be feeling like the States this morning.

Didn't get to see the game but a 2-0 loss to a pile of hack and whacks can't feel too great. It looked like Mexico had the ball as well.

Reflecting on last night. I think we were sloppy but decent.
The one game window is kind of a shame, I'm sure we would look a little more put together if we had another game this window. Overall though, I'm happy with the win.

El Salvador seems to have crapped the bed. Suriname continue to add to their player pool but that is a team we should still handle.
It was very sloppy last night. Saliba came on and showed everyone how ball retention is done.

Out of our 3 MLS teams it seems as though Montreal is doing the best developing NT level talent by far, at least recently. Johnston, Kone, Choiniere, Saliba. Vancouver has developed Ahmed but that's about it post-Davies. TFC let their best recent homegrown talent go in Shaffelburg. Their development pipeline has not served them or the NT well at all since basically Osorio.

I would agree Montreal is the best by far. I would argue Vancouver has done virtually nothing and has perhaps hindered Canadian players rather than help.
Ahmed is succeeding in spite of the Caps treatment of him. Boehmer looks like a prospect and they continue to play a bang average Japanese keeper ahead of him.
Adekugbe, Bair and Cornelious vastly improved once they got away from the Caps.

Crépeau was trained at the Montreal Impact Academy, so was Pantemis.
Johnston is not homegrown, Montreal bought him from another MLS club.
That being said, they are indeed doing the best job out of all of the MLS clubs.

One we should handle for sure. It should be a fun one though, they play fairly direct and attacking.
