Given the results of Canada, Costa Rica, USA, and Mexico so far I think it’s clear that there’s a disadvantage to not playing competitive matches through the previous two windows. All the teams that came through the group stage looked very good comparatively speaking.
Beyond that I just don’t have any faith in Canada Soccer doing anything right to improve this program. Literally going to waste a golden generation. That’s what’s so crushing about tonight.
