Cyle Larin

It was quite the weekend for Canadians in NASL and MLS.

Canadian national-teamers found the net across North America; Tesho Akindele scored twice for FC Dallas; Cyle Larin scored twice to lead Orlando City to a win over the Montreal Impact. And, in NASL, Marcel de Jong scored his second late-game match-winner of the season. His goal paced the Ottawa Fury to a 1-0 triumph over Jacksonville — and it was set up by fellow Canadian Carl Haworth.

In terms of the rankings-by-minutes-played, Toronto FC’s Will Johnson has taken over the lead. FC Edmonton’s Nik Ledgerwood — who sits at fourth overall — leads NASL Canadians in minutes played.

    In reply to Steven Sandor.
    That is one way of doing it. It will probably mean a lot of Jamaicans in GTA won’t qualify for counting if they play for TFC2. I think it would be simpler just to go with “are they eligible to play for Canada?” as the lone criteria. If the CSA counts them then include them. After that it is up to the CSA to get them into the program and cap tied.

    Anyway it’s your list and your approach is as valid as any other, just a bit more complicated as you have to know if someone played for another country.

    In reply to TR M.
    We don’t count dual citizens who have represented other countries (even if, technically, they may still be able to represent Canada). We need to see the player in question in a Canada jersey before we could do that. So, both Richey and Greg Ranjitsingh (born in Canada but represented T&T at the youth level) aren’t counted.

    Last year, we had a separate “could be Canadian-eligible if everything works out” list that had the likes of Finlay and Opare and Akindele (the latter, obviously, declared for Canada). But it turned into a rabbit hole.

    USL minutes are not equal to MLS minutes. The leagues should be kept separate.

    Just a quick question but Spencer Richey isn’t on your list. While he was born in the USA and played for them at the youth level he is eligible for Canada’s MNT and the CSA counts him as Canadian for their quota. Did he declare for the USA? I didn’t hear anything about that.

    Thanks

    Wow. Your lists runneth over. The USL is really the place for quantity and it’s nice to see it isn’t just the 3 Canadian teams valuing our players.
