    We're about to get another Canadian in Premier League. Cardiff City are on path to get promoted with Junior Hoilett as a key player for both Canada and Cardiff City

    That'd be a return to the Premiership for Junior. He's likely to remain a starter, considering his experience in the EPL playing with the Rovers.

    A Canadian, Lucas Cavallini (Puebla) is now in Liga MX top 5 goal scorer.




    With Liam Millar (Liverpool), Alphonso Davies (Vancouver), Junior Hoilett (Cardiff City) supported by Cyle Larin (Besiktas), Anthony Jackson-Hamel (Montreal) and Tossaint Ricketts (Toronto FC), Canada is now deep up front.

    The League of Nations will be very interesting and revealing...

    Our midfield is very good as well. Scott Arfield (Burnley), Atiba Hutchinson (Besiktas), David Wotherspoon (St.johnston), Samuel Piette (Montreal), Jonathan Osorio (Toronto FC), Mark Anthony Kaye (LA FC).

    Weakest link is still defense but we're going young with Derek Cornelius, 20 (javor Ivanjica, Serbia), Marcus Godinho, 20 (Heart of Midlothian), Juan Cordova, 22 (Huachipato, Chile), Michael Petrasso, 22 (Montreal), Manjekar James 24 (Vasas, Hungaria) and Sam Adekudbe (Valerenga, Norway)

    Borjan (Belgrade Red Star) is a beast in goal

    Javor Ivanjica could get relegated out of the Serbian Super Liga.

    Good, because it's just now dawned on me that with everyone in Concacaf (outside of the six exempt teams) having an equal chance of making League A and the Gold Cup, running up the score against weak opponents in these qualifying games is a must.

    Juan Cordova goes 90 in Huachipato’s 2-0 win over Everton this weekend. Huachipato sits third in the Primera Division in Chile. Juan, 22 years old, has won praises by the new manager and has earned his place as the club's starting RB.

    We're getting deep at right back and that's very good for Canada for the league of Nation and the next WCQ cycle

    RB-Juan Cordova, 22, Huachipato, Chile
    RB-Marcus Godinho, 20, Hearts of Midlothian, Scotland
    RB-Michael Petrasso, 22, Montreal Impact, Canada

    Michael Petrasso starting spot on the national team is seriously in jeopardy. That's also the end of the versatile David Edgar (30, Vancouver Whitecaps) at that position and could help at left back.

    The third place is the last to get a ticket for the Libertadores next year. Huachipato was there last time (second time) in 2013.

    10 goals in 21 for Puebla, should def be a transfer for Cavallini.

    I kinda wish we had some of our strikers giving Liga MX a chance.

    Can't talk about MLS as a whole but the 3 Canadian MLS teams are terrible at nurturing and developing talents. Hope he gets out of there sooner rather than later.



    https://www.soctakes.com/2018/04/06/okello-attracting-attention-bundesliga/

    Noble Okello is a player with an uncertain future. Okello, currently on contract with Toronto FC, is a player Bundesliga club VfL Wolfsburg is interested in acquiring. The 17-year-old has represented Canada at the U-17 level, but is yet to make any impact at the MLS or USL level for Toronto FC.


    In spite of this lack of playing time, Okello was invited to train with Wolfsburg in January and impressed the team’s technical staff enough to warrant three transfer bids for the player.

    Most likely the youth club to start. There's no way he'd see first club minutes that fast under the current circumstances

    Lucas Cavallini strikes again in Liga MX with his 7th goal of the season. A Canadian is now in the Top 5 of Liga MX.

    and Larin scores on his Turkish Superliga debut!!!

    1 goal in 1 game only played 7 minutes as well. This should help improve his chances for the rest of the season.

    I wonder if Canada is the third (and still secret) CONCACAF invitee to the Copa America '19.

    Looks like Liam Millar at 18 years old is on the verge of seeing 1st club minutes this year!

    The next Academy star 'perfect' for Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool identified
    https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/spo...ews/next-academy-star-perfect-jurgen-14537365

    • The 18-year-old frontman has enjoyed a fine season for the Reds - making the leap into Critchley's under-23s squad, earning a first senior cap for Canada and being handed a Premier League squad number by Klopp after recently training at Melwood.

    that would be cool to see, an 18 year Canadian getting chances at Liverpool.

    I posted I believe in Feb here how Millar was namedropped by Klopp as one of the youth players of note from the youth/reserves.

    I'm really amazed by Cavallii. I wonder if he has any European clubs tracking or if he'd just prefer to get a permanent move to Puebla. Has me thinking of Herculez Gomez who strolled into Liga MX and shockingly was top of the scoring charts.
