Buffpeau back in Montreal?

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

I was expecting we'd get our new coach by the end of the year, looks like it won't be the case. I hope it won't drag too much into 2024 at least It's important to make the right choice, but you still want to get on with it.

Nilton was suggesting that they are waiting for next week to announce the coach as most people are taking time off and it's some big news. I hope we get them news by next Friday

Probably going to be announced the 2nd week of 2024. 1st week of 2024 being the finalizing stages and the coach getting settled in the city.

I think at this point, they're waiting for the new year. They're a month away from camp, so they have to get this sorted in order for the coach to have enough time to set up a game plan and get to know the players before camp starts.

This club is a real joke

Sell the club, Joey

I’m more inclined to believe that no one wants to coach for this team.

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

Buffpeau back in Montreal?

Sirois is perfectly league average IMO, so it's not exactly a position of need where I'd want to spend a lot of money , but I'd be glad to have Crepeau if there's a way.

Had to google that name.

That would actually be a good thing to have both of those guys, but it would probably come at the expense of improving something else.

I'm all for a Sirois/Crepeau duo.

 

[ArtPeur]

Bologna synergy:

Kacper Urbanski
19yo, Polish, plays AM/CM/DM and even as a winger, is not playing a lot of Serie A but had some good stats with the U19 last year (9 goals, 5 assists)

There's still Arnautovic.. who was rumored to be coming here in his later years. He's currently loaned to AC Milan and his contract ends in June 2025

Mattia Destro wouldn't cost a lot

 

[Habs Icing]

I'm all for a Sirois/Crepeau duo.

I'm not. They are both starting goalkeepers. They both need to play the majority of the games. Also, We don't have the finances to afford the luxury of two starting goalkeepers. I would like management to invest that 2nd starting goalkeeper money in goalscoring.

In addition, it wouldn't be good for the National Team either.

 

[QuebecPride]

It's irritating me how little info we're getting.

I agree that Sirois is good enough as a GK. Crépeau is probably better and more seasoned, but he's also more expensive. As a great mind has said countless times, invest in goals.

MLS teams play about 50+ games including all tournaments + playoffs.

Sirois played a shit ton last season and it showed towards the end.

It would be wise to have a duo of Crepeau and Sirois rather than Sirois and Ketterer.

 

[ThaDevilGirl]

I wouldn't mind Breza back as a backup

 

[Adam Michaels]

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

Pretty good get for Portland. I guess Kamal isnt good enough buddies with Messi .

 

[Skip Bayless]

Kamal lost his 2022 form. He kinda found his game in the league's cup, but it wasn't enough to convince Inter Miami. They can do better, and Kamal is still starter material in MLS.

Good trade for both parties.

I wonder if we'll get some GAM back since we kept sales % of Miller.

Technically, he wasn't sold
