OT: Montréal Impact Thread - Worst Team in Town, Best Team in Canada

[Adam Michaels]

I don’t think this is the best hire. He has a lot of learning to do.

He does. But I think his hiring had a little more than just coaching involved. For one, name recognition. For another, contacts that will help with recruitment.

I hope that he is surrounded with MLS experienced staff. I do hope Bernier returns as an assistant, too.

 

[Pompeius Magnus]

Regardless of anything else he does, this is a pretty big coup PR-wise. He's a name a lot of the more casual fans will have at least heard of .

 

[ThaDevilGirl]

Henry offered his services? Now I'm worried.

 

[Tabarouette]

I guess i'll voice the same concerns as last time... big money coach therefore we won't have money for good players, again

 

[Skip Bayless]

At least he knows the MLS.

But contradictory from what Gilmore said when Garde left about not wanting to be defined by one player/coach.

Another move that smells like improv.

 

[ETTHAKING67]

I hope it works out there is a lot of positive to this hire but a lot of negative as well.

Still remember his handball like it was yesterday, probably the most upset i have ever been at a sports match. Hope he does well for us though!

This is from June Impact rank eighth in MLS in total team payroll this season

I think we have always hovered between 6-10 when it comes to club spending. The money is there BUT we need to stop paying for mediocre/scrubs such as Camacho, Urruti, Mancosu's etc etc

The issue isn't so much money spent but HOW we've been spending it IMO. A pretty big percentage has been on jabronis that haven't been any help to the team.

Because we refuse to pay transfers. Always players on their last few steps or overpaid players. We also have no assets to trade in the MLS, sometimes the solutions are in the MLS. That has to change.

Who's going?

Who's going?

Henry impact coach ?

Hahahahahaha I said it a few weeks ago they will get a clown like Henry instead of a reputable coach. The good part is that he has no pressure.



This dude will insult every sh*t player the opportunity hes got. Yeah he doesn't care about not being the fans favorite.


But at least this team will be entertaining and dramatic af to watch


JP loves his drama. Damn soap opera incoming 2020, I'll be at the stadium almost every game just to watch his reactions

The Als will move their end-of-year pressed to tomorrow due to IMFC's big news today.

 

[Skip Bayless]

We made it boys (and @ThaDevilGirl)

 

[Per Sjoblom]

Fantastic player at his peak, here's one of my favorite goals and it was against f****** United!

 

[JayKing]

Not interviewing any other coaches isn’t a great move though, let’s be honest

 

[Skip Bayless]

That behind the net goal, favorite Henry moment of all time.

I mean yes but i'm talking realistically right now we're not gonna stop signing jabronis so any penny we could save to get a non-jabroni would help

jabroni
