Also sounds like Kamal Miller is getting interest from Europe. We will likely see him end up in Belgium or the Netherlands.

From what I've seen from his this WC I think the Championship might be more up to his strengths. He'd start for a top team like Norwich there I think.

Saw this earlier and it answers some of my previous questions:


The broadcast details of the new agreement includes:
- Extensive schedule of regular season matches, eight MLS Cup playoff matches, and MLS Cup each season
- One match per week featuring a Canadian club
- Leagues Cup: 12 Group Stage and four Round of 32 matches each tournament on TSN
- Highlight rights, editorial coverage, and cross-marketing support

Just goes to show how tough Canada's group was that two of its teams made the semis. And the other was the #2 ranked country in the world.

With world cup going to 48 teams.... Assuming Canada retains a ranking in the 30-40 range and being a host country... It might be plausible that they will have a teams ranked lower than them in the grouping.

That doesn't mean it would be a walk in the park because the rankings suck, but chances are, they won't have to go through a group like this one, lol.

Depending on how things are set up we may avoid a big team by being put in pot 1. With the expansion to 48 teams there is room to have all 3 hosts in pot 1.

Bassong just moved to the Romanian league. Is he any good?
He showed some solid moments earlier in his Montreal career but kind of stagnated the past half year or so. As a 99 i still hope he can be a useful depth piece of the CMNT at somepoint in the future.

Hope things go better for him than they did for Ongaro, who I thought looked good when he played but never really earned his coach's trust.
