Holy shit

Remember when we thought Crepeau was the future? Good times.

 

[TRG]

Not everyone who managed big clubs in Europe are good managers in MLS.

He wouldn't be the first. I think a lot of them think it's going to be easy here.

Doesn't take long time to remove your Garde's Avatar

Its due to how Oduro, a player with 100+ games for us, never caused a single problem, was there in the best and worst moments has been treated. Giving him 2 minutes when you lose 3-1 or 4-1 is extremely disrespectful. Its not like we are any good. He is a veteran, who cares if he sucks. Just dont play him at all or give him 20 minutes not 1 minute.

They better make some urgent trades. And for some reason it took 70 minutes to make a single sub when we were outplayed. Edwards has to play next game over Vargas.

Honestly, if I'm being hard towards Garde, there's absolutely no chance the 3 stooges (Saputo, NDS and Braz) get the benefit of the doubt.

NDS and Braz needed to be fired YEARS ago.

The problem start and ends with Saputo being f***ing cheap.

At the same time, we have been shit with our TAM and regular players. We trade Felipe who's is still a solid MLS player at this point, for a guy that can't follow the pace 2 years later. Ciman who as overrated as he is, has good enough of a rep to probably have gone for more than we got. Ontivero, Bernardello, Lopez, Arregui, Mancosu ect. Our academy produces players who are wayyyyy far behind the MLS level and they don't get to play either.

Not only is the owner cheap,the talent evaluation is poor. It then comes back to the owner when there's no scouting department, there's no team affiliate to develop young talent. They probably have no idea who the prospects are at the superdraft too. If the habs are a fire dumpster, the Impact is a pile of horseshit.

Joey thinks that spending big money on a coaching staff would make up for all the massive institutional flaws of his organization. He needs to step away and get people who know how to run a professional team in a league that's bound to become world class.

The trade was actually Felipe for Oyongo and Alexander, I thought it was for Duvall + for some reason, but the point still remains.

I'm pretty sure it was a Klopas trade, not Braz. Same with Johan Venegas. And Alexander is one the best holding midfielders in MLS, he just gets injured A LOT. We all know Oyongo. It was Biello that wanted Duvall in Montreal.


Let's not forget Harry Shipp that was a total failure same with Kyle Bekker. Trading Romario for no reason and Eric Miller while giving Tissot starts. This is all due to poor management. I understand making one mistake but not every damn time.

[Skip Bayless]

There are so many fails, I can't even remember them all. I even laughed because I forgot Venegas.

Exactly why I dropped the academy project years ago. I, for one was very excited at the thought of having local players that could crack in MLS but after being subjected to guys like Lefevre, Tissot, Ouimette, Jackson, Choiniere, LBG and I could go on, I totally was appalled. Any one that is not fangirling can totally see that there is something missing in their development as if they all have 0 soccer IQ. I see a huge difference when I compare Fisher to a guy like Lefevre or TMG or Chris Mueller to AJH or Bono to Crepeau...

You totally summed up, cheap ownership leads to poor evaluation, (they try to force players into the lineup because it's the easy way to avoid actual scouting work)

As for the superdraft, they are just lazy , plain and simple. It makes them look even more Pejorative Slured. From my memory, players drafted by (vast majority) seem to be doing well for themselves : Wenger at Houston, Miller in colorado, Romario in Atlanta, Israeli guy that played in the Europa League.

Now if only they recruited good players to make it up but no..... so far I'm not convinced with Vargas, MLS is too much for him. He keeps being invisible, at least Ontivero made sure to shoot way off target so you know he was out there. Gotta take baby steps and if we wanna win, he gotta sit on the bench. Camacho just got here and I believe that defenders take longer to adapt, but I saw significant improvement yesterday. Fanni signed till June but he gotta stay for the remainder of the season. Silva is ok but not that good, same with Taider. Raitala does good enough for a converted CB. Diallo is coming back in a few weeks to Montreal. Petrasso ......

Good signatures :
Rod Fanni
Jukka Raitala

Meh/Bad ones :
Saphir Taider (for a DP)
Petrasso
Vargas


Too early to tell (didn't play enough/at all) :
Clement Diop
Diallo
Camacho
Silva

Personally, I think Krolicki fits in all the categories. Anyone that can spot talent and skills will notice that Krolicki has natural raw talent, he just needs to express himself more on the field. If Krolicki was playing in Atlanta you would know what I'm talking about. He would be fit better too.

 

[JunglePete]

Venegas flopped because the guy that wanted him and had some tactical knowledge left (Klopas) and Biello was clueless. He was being used as CM at one point.....
For Costa Rica, he's an instant starter and a totally different player but has been dropped recently.

You're in serious trouble when you throw that much money down the drain in the MLS.

Three players they should release. Nobody wants them and they're taking a lot of space while being unused.

 

[JunglePete]

I have a hard time believing Donadel makes that much this year. Might as well make a donation bc 386k for an average injured Donadel is absurd and that alone should get someone fired on the spot...

We need the W against New England (who are on fire by the way) I'd go with an attacking 433
Edwards Piatti Silva
Taider Krolicki Piette
Raitala Camacho Cabrera Duvall
Diop

If Fanni is injured. If not Camacho- Cabrera- Fanni (at RB) no more Duvall who is shit now

What is your fixation with Krolicki in a pivotal role when the clear flaw in his game is that he can't turn and push the play forward? Are you trolling, or do you seriously believe that USL calibre Krolicki is the answer at that position?

Playing behind Vargas doesn't help. You think that's his flaw because ghost-Vargas was a CF so he has next to choice but to back pass but that's not his real flaw. His real flaw is physicality. Anyone with vision can make a decent job at AM. He can work in tight spaces and that's key for CAM. It's at least worth trying. What's the worst that could happen?
