OT: Montreal Impact Thread: Game 3 ----> Montreal Expos @ NY Yankees

[TRG]

I freaking Oyongo is having the same problem as Ciman. He feels he's better than the league he's playing in.

He is. But he needs to show it.

 

[Rise from the Ashes]

Impact need to find a better CB than Cabrera to play with Ciman. They also need a better #6. Dzemaili will help the team, but not with its most prevalent issues.

in only 3 games, Atlanta are one goal shy of 1/4th of what Montreal scored last year in 34 games. Remember, it's their first season too. #MoneyTalks

I'd love to see their books though

Interesting fact although they played Minnesota (who's awful) and a team down a man for 80 mins

 

[JunglePete]

Minnesota just drew Colorado 2-2 with a man down in an away game vs probably the hardest team to score against, unlucky? yes awful? not really

 

[JunglePete]

Also glad we at least got a point from that game earlier.

Great road tie on a not-so even-levelled playing field.

 

[QuebecPride]

has been a problem since they both played in the Africans Cup and the EURO respectively

Good news for you is that it will never be the case for your Team nor Giovinco, if you know what I mean

That precision, that reaction

Two more goals for Dzemaili today. That's 9 in 29 games for Bologna as a central midfielder. Dude will be amazing.

On another note, there's a soccer website that I often go on : Transfermarkt. It has well presented info about pretty much every soccer player in existence alongside with their stats and value over the years.

I looked at Dzemaili's profile : http://www.transfermarkt.com/blerim-dzemaili/profil/spieler/9967

I was very surprised to see that he cost over 22 million Euros in transfer fees since 2010, that's quite high!

That being said, making a lineup with him will be quite interesting. He's bound to take a starter's job. Who will it be though? Bernardello, Donadel, Bernier, even Oduro is at risk.

 

[Michelangelo]

Donadel's contract expires in June, does it not?

At this point I see him taking Bernardello's spot. Bernier is playing well and Bernardello doesn't provide much offense or creativity.

Great goal, would watch again and again

Bernardello is somewhat our bulldog out there. With Dzemaili in, I wouldn't be surprised if they try to rotate the midfield.

Game 1, Arregui/Donadel + Dzemaili
Game 2, Bernardello/Bernier + Dzemaili

Schweinsteiger to Chicago
im kinda very jealous

[DekeLikeYouMeanIt]

Bastian is over the hill but it's a good name to have in the league and for Chicago. As long as the league keeps growing with younger signings like the Atlanta boys and Giovinco, the older signings are a boon.

over the hill? He isn't as good as before but still has plenty to offer. Just retired with Germany as the captain. U realize he's the same age as Feilhaber and a year older than Klejstan? And there's no comparison between Benny or Sasha to Bastian, not even in his worse days. Also good he came from directly to Man U. By far the best CM, glad he'll play in this league and starting from tomorrow.

The thing is that he has much more soccer in his legs than a typical 32 year old. He's been playing at the highest level since before he was an adult. I've got to admit I thought he was much older than 32, more like 38, but that must be the gray hair. Nonetheless, it's great for the visibility of the league.

Yeah, I also thought he was much older than that.

Well its true he has alot of 'mileage" but so did Robbie Keane when he first joined LA, ppl had the same argument and he probably played his best years in MLS. If Bastian can stay injury free, he'll be one of the best CMs in MLS in a long time.

You, sir, are very funny. Bastian is no slowpoke and washed up player. He still has plenty of soccer to play and will be very dominant in the MLS. The man was stuck in Man U and was still dominant with Bayern and the national team before his move. He will beat us badly. Best CM in the league right away.

I Totally Agree with you people think he's washed up because he was on the bench at Man U because of a coach who simply didn't like him and had personal problems. He was still good enough to start for every team in the world, excluding the obvious ones. If an EPL scrub like Jozy Altidore can nearly dominate this league, just think of a world cup & champions league winner in Bastian Schweinsteiger at 32 who didn't play that much in the past 2 years.

I know I'm gonna start watching more Chicago and will go at the game on August 16. Best signature in 2017 so far. That's just like when David Villa or Kaka joined the league.
