Argentina wasted a number of good chances, and Canda had 3 or 4 good opportunities to equalise. That last few times I have seen Canada they have struggled to finish off the chances they create. It looks like the gaffer isn't going to change things while they still create; even if they are lacking the clinical edge. So Theo could be on the bench for the whole tournament.

weeyin Posted June 26 Report Share Posted June 26 Canada doing their best to keep Bair away from the League Cup (and on the bench again). Another 5 subs used and none of them Bair - although Jonathan David was good tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weeyin Posted July 6 Report Share Posted July 6 I don't know what Theo needs to do to get some minutes on the field. Canada are a decent team but are crying out for someone to take a chance or two. Should have been 3 up at half time in tonight's game, lost a soft goal, and missed another couple of good chances after that. 1 - 1, 15 mins to go, and he still isn't getting a sniff.

texanwellfan Posted July 6 Report Share Posted July 6 Looks like there will have to be a few injuries before he gets a chance. Would like to see him at least get some minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spiderpig Posted July 6 Report Share Posted July 6 Found this online , as Canada are through to the Copa America semi finals the Bair has earned us $144,000, (£112,404) nice wee bonus https://x.com/MikeLimaOne1/status/1809542222838136919?t=tAgMS9jsgIMXm2SLWGry7g&s=19 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
texanwellfan Posted July 6 Report Share Posted July 6 So between Bair and Kelly, not a bad wee haul. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sinjy Posted July 6 Report Share Posted July 6 So Kelly and Bair have earned us almost as much as EB has offered as first instalment in his take over that gives him virtually full control of the club. The sooner he is told to do one the better. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sooner he is told to do one the better. Good for the club. I hope that we tell him to do one politely and respectfully. Hopefully it'll be a no vote, but the Society Board can engage with him to see if some kind of deal fairer to the club can be thrashed out. Maybe, maybe not. We want to be encouraging outside investors, as long as its on the right terms. He would have to show willingness to compromise though.

weeyin Posted July 10 Report Share Posted July 10 Theo still not getting a sniff. Looking for goals the gaffer prefers bringing on a Minnesota Utd player. EDIT: confirmed another zero minutes.

witchfindergeneral Posted July 10 Report Share Posted July 10 Poor from Marsch not to even give Bair a sniff in my biased view. He has been playing Larin every game and he has scored 1 goal that I could see since 24/01. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joewarkfanclub Posted July 10 Report Share Posted July 10 Watched the first half of Argentina v Canada and have to admit, I was surprised at how positively the Canadians went at it from the start. They created a number of good chances before they got caught with the sucker punch and Argentina took control of the game. Re Bair, its a shame he didnt get any game time, but looking at the Canada front line, they all looked pretty useful. Pace, strength and skill. No harm to the big fella but Im not surprised he didnt get a start given what they have at their disposal. On the plus side, he hasnt got injured so any big money transfer should still go through smoothly! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Up front is where Canada are best. They've been terrible up front this tourney. Creating a few, but their finishing has been awful and really struggling to score goals. They manged 2 goals in five games and missed a fair number of chances. I can see why they might not want to start Theo, but to not ever use him as an option off the bench when all the other options repeatedly fail to score seems a bit strange.

Now I'm not saying Lennon Miller is in the same class as Yamal but one is 16 years old and just put his country through to the Euro finals and the other is 17 years old and we've just decided to move him up to the national U21 set up. We are so conservative and so distrusting of talent in this country. You just know that if Yamal was Scottish he wouldn't have a first team appearance under his belt at club level, never mind international.

You just know that if Yamal was Scottish he wouldn't have a first team appearance under his belt at club level, never mind international. The last time Miller was in the u17s rather than u21s it was when the u17s had bigger games. He would definitely have learned more from playing Italy u17s than Kazakhstan u21s. Yamal has been playing for Barca under top level coaches and in the same system as Spain. Miller is coached by Kettlewell and Ricky Foster and and despite having great technical skills had pass completion of less than 70% because the team is so poorly coached that he often has no one to pass to. Our young players are slower to develop because of the lack of quality coaching in the country. Abderdeen gave a 16 year old his debut this season. Miller played a few days after his 16th birthday and Celtic gave Ben Doak a game aged 16. I think Yamal would be fine here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
