Canada looking a little different now that they're playing away concacaf games with fans in the stands again and losing their composure, eh? :jbhmm:

It’s nations league game bud. They tied both usa and Mexico away with their fans there in meaningful games called World Cup qualifiers lol. what are you on about ?

yea, in reduced capacity games cuz of covid. :laugh:

Nations League doubles as qualifiers for the Gold Cup now also, so don't act like they're completely meaningless. :umad:

Nations League and Gold Cup also going to be the only competitive games for USA/CAN/MX due to hosting the next WC, let's see you boys keep up. :mjpls:

So they're really having four Nations League matches in a row :picard:

I was surprised when they played three but this is crazy.

I see that Canada got Concacaf'd last night in Honduras :russ: , welcome to the big boys table Canada :mjlit:

Eta: look at this pitch y'all:dead:


This is why I still laugh when people think Concacaf is a cake walk. Yes, the competition is not nearly as good, but the playing conditions are usually pretty poor for away games. Rough pitch, humidity, elevations, passionate fans (different from Western European passionate fans) and Concacaf refs.

The anti Arteta brigade hanging their hat on Guendouzi to keep the narrative alive is :dead: He nothing more than an exotic McTominay :mjpls:

I‘m not even mad that we sold him. I’m mad that we’d agree to a loan deal with only a £8m future fee. In a world where Liverpool were able to sell Dominic Solanke for £20m, it just shows how bad our transfer team is. After the season he just had, he’s currently valued at £22.5m on Transfermarkt
