OT: CF Montreal Thread - Civics, welcome to HFCFM Edition

[ArtPeur]

My thoughts. I was hoping to see him vs Columbus. They were defending against the counter pretty well for most of the game, so I thought his 1v1 skill would have helped but I guess Hamdi helped break the Crew down enough that Torres was redundant.

Nancy has been giving some time on the field to most players so far. Could we expect him as a sub in next weekend? I'd think so.

Was ZBG's injury any serious? Did we have any news?

Also we dropped two places in MLS power rankings

Thanks to Cole. One key talent makes all the difference.

I'd still welcome more talent up front. But we really need more talent onnthe value line. But talent is an afterthought to "character" for MB...

Who is MB The Sporting Director of the Impact is called Olivier Renard.

Jokes apart, you're more than welcome to speak soccer in this thread with us

Is he though? We have a pretty exclusive thing going around here after all. I'd say new people should have to go through a strict cross examination at the very least , plus a couple paddling sessions. Perhaps carry the stone of shame a mile or two, you know, for character evaluation

My bad. Go CF Montreal! (Still feels weird not saying Go Impact!)

Hey it's much worse than you think. We lost most songs that we could sing. The most common one, that everyone could jump in, I.M.P.A.C.T. is gone. Even the stadium announcer would invite us to say it. I wonder if the Ultras will keep using it to troll the organization

But hey, the meme about defense/offense works for both teams

Not gonna lie, I'm gonna keep chanting Impact songs.

I hope the Ultras go all in and create new foot-focused songs.

The MLS power rankings doesn't make any sense honestly

The MLS power rankings doesn't make any sense honestly

MLS is very transparent about their bias for the big market teams or pet projects across their coverage. Montreal as a smaller market with a French speaking fanbase means they're never going to care about us/can put in 0 effort.

We could win the MLS cup and their writers would have us at 15th with "decent looking run but ultimately not sustainable."

I don’t know why anyone would care - much less the team’s official Twitter account

 

[JunglePete]

Watching MLS teams in CCL is super depressing

Portland just lost to Club america and young Jean Claude Van Damme scored 2 goals

Only Philadelphia and their DP less squad left. Next round in August

 

[Emanresu Wen]

CCL quarters: 5 MLS teams 3 MX teams
CCL semis: 1 MLS team 3 MX teams

it’s the same story every year

It's nice to see the opinion of others on our team. But I will definitely not lose sleep over it.

I don't think the CFM twitter handler really understood the meme, but the Whitecaps guy really nailed it.

Our Twitter game is pretty weak but meh. I prefer having little videos of the players and stuff over good memes.

Toye is out 2-4 weeks. That's really too bad. Now time for Johnson to score some goals.

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

This is really bad timing for Toye Hopefully he comes back quick and just as good as he was early on. We finally have a few playmakers again, we need guys that can complete those plays up front.

 

[QuebecPride]

The good news is that we finally have depth, where as an injury to Piatti a couple years ago was dramatic, we can afford to lose a couple of guys because Renard brought in some capable replacements. Any news on ZBG?

Nancy said it wasn't too serious. I expect to see ZB2 the next few games.

 

[willzyix]

Really sucks for Toye, but I hope this means we see Johnsen and Quioto up top instead of Quioto and Hurtado.

 

[ArtPeur]

Johnsen gets his first start
No ZBG

 

[ArtPeur]

Is it me or Yeferson Soteldo, TFC's new DP, looks like he's 30 but he's actually 23?
