I have to totally disagree about playing 11 v 11 at a younger age. Kids need more touches on the ball not less. Our talent level is so far below the top nations, why would we go against models like Barcelona and Ajax who continue to produce world class talent while focusing on smaller sided games. Jesus Christ Sid Ireland, Scotland is bad enough, please let's not follow the Irish model.

The passing won't happen at 11 v 11 Sidney - Sorry mate.
Might teach them shape and long ball tactics but not skill IMHO.

That Jive motha fcuka is right - All the big Clubs go 4 v 4 at a young age.
Hell, Metro Ford do it once a week at the older ages.

The good part is Jive is Kallum's actually half Scottish though...:D

What's the kids got to do with our National program. They are kids up there. Problem is boys talk Jamacan English rest of the guys do't understand only when DsRozerio comes back that boys will click again.
It's over.


New coach will be in place someday soon. I truly hope they get a guy that will teach man on man marking. Our guys hate like hell to even think man on man.
They deffend after the cross is sent in. I hope again new coach will teach to cut the cross off. There will be no need to defend.

Another MAJOR tournament we... won't qualify for...

USA to host 2016 Copa America - ESPNFC

It's really too bad that we are in such a poor down-swing cycle in regards to our talent pool, as qualifying for the World Cup in 2014 and Copa America 2016 would really turn this country into a soccer-crazy nation but we'll miss both and more until the next generation of players (new U20's/U17's) mature enough to compete.

So sad! :(

Djones what talent are you talking about. If they head talent we would not loose to Handuras 8 to 1. There is a serios problem here.
Till this counrty opens a door for any Canadian to make it. They will keap on loosing.
First they have wash the wax out of their ears and lisen to Canadians. You and I know that you could go acroos Canada and get five more teams equal to what they head or even better.
They need to get a Canadian to coach the team. Pay the man 100.000.00. The money they save on paying some coach that has no clue about Canadian soccer can be used to start enother team in Saskatoon in NASL. Use that team as ther base building block.

The problem lies with top people. There is a siple soluton,to fix it. Once I said I will do it for free if they are willing to lisen and turn this country around. Victor knows me well. It is so siple that many overlook the siplisity of it.
We do have players here with skill size and speed. But they are not given a chance. Reason is protection for governing body kids.
They are no dam good and we get kicked in the backside every time when it's important.

MTKB you are bit off. I said add a team in NASL from Saskatoon and use it to build base for National program. Atleast you would have kids that can play together.
The boys we have now all we need is to change the name and they will make it.
As far as me as a coch all I can tell you I would qualify for the World stage before Tony Nick or Hart. I know Canadian kids.
One has to have free hands to select twenty four guys. But if the give the dogs with no skill you are as good as a guy before you.
Only four guys from that tem are actualy at top level rest are first div guys.
It is sad to see who is actualy playing on that team.
If some one beat me 8 to 1 at that level I woud quit on the spot.
They have no Canadian pride.

You would be correct to say they are immingrats, all in Canada are immingrants from some place including you.Some one has to question you positivness.
CMNP is not that far off. It needs a serious changes in three steps.Local Pro league is the biggest step. Toronto FC Montreal and Vancouver will not do it. They do't care about Canadian kids. NASL would do us better.
As far as your comment on my coaching, I will not respond to it at all.

Guys,

This is obviously getting ugly and personal so we all should slow down a little bit.

There are some really good ideas that we could read here but we all have to understand something very important. There is simply no interest for any kind of a professional soccer league in Canada and in order to have a good base for the national team there has to be a pro league.

MLS will not help Canadian national team because there is simply not enough room for all Canadian players. In that sense NASL, USL or however we call it would make more sense. I mentioned before, maybe we all should pay a lot more attention to colleges and universities; MLS drafts from them.

Also, this is a huge country and we even cannot play soccer in all parts of Canada at the same time. Here in BC we go year around; not so in other parts of Canada. Is solution maybe to move CSA to Vancouver and then try to organize here some kind of semi-pro league here in BC? Maybe, but, let's not forget that such a league already exists in Ontario and it obviously did not help Canadian national team.

It looks to me that we have to face a reality and understand that soccer in this country will always be just for a fun. Here and there, a few kids will make it to Europe, some will play in MLS. But, unless you play in top European leagues there is really no enough money to live comfortably in Europe which means that some will try for a few years and then be back to Canada looking for a regular job with a steady income. On a smaller scale that is what we even have in VMSL this season (a few guys came back after a few years in Europe, after trying to make living in Europe by playing in divisions 1 or 2 and just could not do it; they are back, looking for a "regular" job if it is fair to say it that way).

In the meantime, the same group of people here in BC (and in Canada) will make some small changes basically every year (IPL, Super-Y, HPL, etc.) and sell dreams to the naive parents who think that their little Joe is good enough to go pro and play for Barcelona, Manchester, or Real. Those people know how hard is to make it to NHL but they obvioulsy have no clue that it is probably even harder to make it to the big soccer stage in Europe and when a very talented kid from Canada comes to Europe he is faced with the serious competition and if any of those European clubs has to choose between a Canadina kid and kid from Europe they will certainly choose a kid from Europe (or local kid).

Sorry about this long post; I had intention just to say to all of us to calm down because some comments are really harsh but ended up repeating probably the same things others already mentioned.

RL there has to be room for Canadian players. All fans have to do is boycot few Caps games and you will see Canadian kids on the roster sheets.
You can have all good ideas you want but if you have a club president that is Canadian and he does not give Canadian kids a chance. To me nothing he as president is no more than gummer.
Everytime he goes on TV he talks how Cnada this how Canada that He's not helping. Kids they draft fom US are no better than a youngster from SFU or any other Canadian Universety. You know what the problem is stay strong and bring it out.
You have two curents. One is Italian and one is Enlish. One only helps his own. That has stop. All the Canadians must be given an equal chance. As good as Caps are A good PCSL or VMSL allstar team would tie them or perhasps beat them due to they can not sore a goal. Local kids have more pace than sixty percent of them. Thier D is bunch of slow guys.
