Hoilett - Canada

[Mem]

Hoiletts 2nd game will be next Wednesday at 3am (English time) - there's no way he'll be back/ready for the Boro game. Shame, he has made a big difference recently and we miss his pace when he's absent

[JOYCEY]

That's a shame, he has been on fire lately.

Great opportunity for Nasser or Petrasso to impress though!

Is Petrasso in their first team?

Is Petrasso in their first team?

No he wasn't called up, guess due to lack of playing time, which is a shame as he played well for Canada in his first games.

Petrasso has only featured for our youth teams to date, he looked very good in the Olympic Qualifying for the U-23's, he needs to be playing club football somewhere! As for Hoilett, he will be bagged after playing near every minute for Canada first on the plastic at BC Place in Vancouver Friday, then in the heat, altitude and smog of Mexico City on Tuesday!

who've boro got down their flanks? is Petrasso good at tracking back? I cant remember the last time I saw him play more than the few mins of added time

[corbray]

Petrasso is pretty good, not so much at tracking back as he's a pretty aggressive attacking player. He's got real talent and imo is the most promising player to come out of our academy since Ray Jones (R.I.P) discounting guys who left before playing for us of course...

I quite like what I've seen and read about him and at this stage of the season and with Phillips not wanting to be here/leaving next season Petrasso should certainly be playing more regularly for us.
