Episode 11 – Will Dias, Flores & Jebbison play for Canada in June?

Northern Fútbol Podcast

It was a busy week in Canadian soccer, but Peter and Thomas have you covered!
They recap the Vancouver Whitecaps' win over CF Montreal, whether there should be optimism or pessimism in Vancouver, why Montreal is still struggling to unlock the attack and whether this rivalry can be considered a derby. They also dive into Toronto FC's loss to the New York Red Bulls, why it might be time to make some tough decisions with the squad and how we might need to change the narrative about their young players.
Then they assess John Herdman's recent comments regarding June call-ups, including the coveted 2003 crop of dual nationals and whether we'll see them cap-tied to Canada next month. They also debate whether Canada should be worried about Suriname given their recent success recruiting players from Europe.
Peter and Thomas close out the show answering your questions about Canadians abroad, including Marcelo Flores, Georgi Atanasov, Harry Paton and other names. Plus, Thomas gives us a couple of CPL-related updates as their 2021 season remains shrouded in mystery.
