Mother of All Canadians Abroad (Updated list December 17th, 2007)

Re: Mother of All Canadians Abroad (Start July 2005)

Rob Sing has had more mystery trials in Italy than Joey Torchia in South America. What was it Udinese youth? Need some verification which we never seem to get with Sing.

These guys are confirmed. Can the mods add them to the list

China
Sean Fraser - Nanchang Bayi (China League) (2)
Rumba Munthali - Nanchang Bayi (China League) (2)

 

Re: Mother of All Canadians Abroad (Start July 2005)

You can also add Fernandes back on the list. A little typo.

On V's they don't have Sliva on the list.

 

Re: Mother of All Canadians Abroad (Start July 2005)

That's not a typo and just to let you in on a little secret, Vs isn't the most up to date list, this is.

Re: Mother of All Canadians Abroad (Start July 2005)

Where is he? I guess I'm a bit out of the loop.

 

Re: Mother of All Canadians Abroad (Start July 2005)

Dude, he was capped by Portugal

 

Re: Mother of All Canadians Abroad (Start July 2005)

I thought he was still eligable. Wasn't it a youth squad or something like that?

 

Re: Mother of All Canadians Abroad (Start July 2005)

It was an U-21 game and Fernandes is 22-23 yrs old so I think he's still eligible for Canada. But I don't we'll see him play for Canada in the future, he'll choose Portugal.

 

Re: Mother of All Canadians Abroad (Start July 2005)

That's what i thought, it was a U21/23 match of some sort against Slovakia...but on the V's board someone said differently, and apparently he's gone which really sucks! hopefully Hirschfeld, Sutton, Stam or Begovic can step it up for next WCQ

 

Re: Mother of All Canadians Abroad (Start July 2005)

I think for our next WCQ it's between Hirsch, Sutton and Kenny. But don't forget Wagenaar who just signed at ADO den Haag in Holland, I think he's the future for us but him and Begovic are still very young for keeper so we'll see.

 

Re: Mother of All Canadians Abroad (Start July 2005)

I forgot about Wagenaar! aside from that blunder against Syria he did look promising...and he'll be at a club with a better keeper coach than the older guys

 

Re: Mother of All Canadians Abroad (Start July 2005)

Now official
Will Johnson - SC Heerenveen (Holland Eredivisie) (1)

This can be added when confirmed

Marcel de Jong - Roda JC (Holland Eredivisie) (1) presently with Helmond Sport (Gouden Gids Divisie) (2)

 

Re: Mother of All Canadians Abroad (Start July 2005)

You jumped the gun a little on Rob Friend - although Molde sold him to Heerenveen today, the sale takes effect this summer and he will remain with Molde until after the World Cup

 

Re: Mother of All Canadians Abroad (Start July 2005)

It's the same with DeJong. He listed them with their new clubs, but added 'presently with..' because they will finish off the season with their old clubs...either way.

 

Re: Mother of All Canadians Abroad (Start July 2005)

Well, contrary to previous information, after seeing the CSA U20 lineup and going back to search the La Louviere site it seems like Asmir Begovic is still there. It doesn't look like he's getting playing time with the big boys but he is being mentioned.

 

Re: Mother of All Canadians Abroad (Start July 2005)

I'm 100% sure that Rocco Placentino is owned by Gualdo.

When Perugia approached Gualdo about him in January, no mention was made of Arezzo owning his rights.

 

Re: Mother of All Canadians Abroad (Start July 2005)

narduch.. u live in woodbridge? off topic

 

Re: Mother of All Canadians Abroad (Start July 2005)

Yes I do.

 

Re: Mother of All Canadians Abroad (Start July 2005)

who do you play for? as i also live in woodbridge

 

Re: Mother of All Canadians Abroad (Start July 2005)

Boys, if you don't mind, this thread is for Canadian player transfers

 

Re: Mother of All Canadians Abroad (Start July 2005)

Note that Rob Friend is still with Molde until mid summer. I think both he and Johnson signed up and join the team in July. Friend played with Molde in Norway's 1st division action today.

 

Re: Mother of All Canadians Abroad (Start July 2005)

Don't know if this is credible but Wikipedia has shown that there is a Canadian by the name of Roberto Giacomi on Rangers.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rangers_F.C.#Current_squad_.28season_2005-2006.29

Can anyone confirm this?

 

Re: Mother of All Canadians Abroad (Start July 2005)

That was correct. He was a trainee in their academy before being loaned to a Scottish 2nd Division team last fall. His loan went poorly and he was released by Rangers during this winter transfer window.

 

Re: Mother of All Canadians Abroad (Start July 2005)

Liam Girard did not make the Colorado roster:

Re: Mother of All Canadians Abroad (Start July 2005)

Any news on Jazic?

 

Re: Mother of All Canadians Abroad (Start July 2005)

Nothing. Not a peep...the RBNY guys on BS have no idea what happened to him and he's not listed on the Kuban Krasnodar roster for this season. Guess they gave him his release that he wanted and he's now a Bosman?
