With Herdman's yesterday comments on Doneil, very fair to say that he's gonna be a starter. I understand he isn't the most popular player but we need to match Lukaku's physicality and he's the only one who can do it. He can sit the other games I don't mind. Lukaku is IMO the hardest striker to guard after Haaland.

In the beginning of the year, I assigned the ask of guarding Lukaku to Kamal Miller but I don't think he can handle it. Maybe he can but considering it's opening game best that Doneil pulls the same hit he did on Lozano


I trust Eustaquio enough to neutralize or disrupt KdB.

Great news... what is Quebec City, Laval or Longueuil waiting for?

The province of Quebec not being represented in the CPL is beyond pathetic.

I don't think it's anyone's fault but one person making it more difficult.... I'll let you guess. Could EASILY have a great Laval/Longueil- Quebec City rivalry. Alex Bunbury had a very interesting Laval project and overnight it just disappeared.

It's absolutely not normal that BC has at least 5 ? professional soccer teams while in Quebec as big as it is there's only one. Lol.

Sounds like Lukaku's injury is not as bad as initially thought. He is likely questionable for the start of WC though.

What I don't understand is why Davies play so intensely when the WC is so near. You're playing Hertha, just by walking you win the game. It's something he would need to manage if he wants a long career. But I digress as this post below is still valid

Knock on wood but should Davies miss the WC, I am not worried one bit. We played so many qualifiers without him and we looked damn good. Matter of fact, we looked more organized when he wasnt playing because we knew we couldnt rely on him.

Obviously you want him there at all cost but Im not worried. We have immense mental strenght. Raheem Edwards whos been playing superbly can cover for Ade. Jo David will need to be a leader though. I do believe Phonzie will be there, maybe not starting all the games.

...it was a 3-2 game in which Hertha had just had a goal disallowed by the VAR...

I fricken knew it. I've been checking Bayern results worriedly for a few weeks and I started watching about half 20 minutes into today's match, and figured he'd get injured the minute I started watching. It didn't happen right away but eventually...

I know I was watching the game. Mane and Gnarby looked like they wanted no parts of it. Like f*** Hertha I ain't risking shit here


It's 4D chess by Johnny Boy to destabilize Belgium:naughty:
