He doesn't look like the Jonathan David that I think left low at the end of last season.

I think I would go with Lahren personally.

I wouldn't be surprised if he continues with Tani because Tani does give you as much as the finishing, continues to be fairly awry.

A lot of other good things.

I think I'd go with Lahren, though, because even, you know, with the criticism that Lahren's taken for his lack of goals, the problem has never really been opponents of the kind of caliber of Qatar.

You know, Kyle Lahren generally fills his boots against kind of the CONCACAF teams, the middle-ranked teams that Canada plays in qualifying and in Gold Cups and things like that.

So I'd look at Qatar as kind of a similar type of opposition to that.

It's when the competition goes a step higher that Lahren has struggled, I think, for Canada, certainly in the past couple of years, but even a bit beyond that, to be honest, going back to the last World Cup.

So this isn't the type of game where I'm super concerned about whether or not you're going to get an impact from Kyle Lahren.

And you are going to need in this game to take your chances and have a poacher, I think, in the box.

And Kyle Lahren is still the best they've got in that regard.

Yeah, Miller, I think, would be much more probable to drop out.

And that will depend on if they judge Ali Ahmed is ready to go.

I think if Ahmed is ready to start, there's no question he comes in.

And I would think he would come in on the left-hand side for Miller.

Buchanan had a difficult day against Bosnia.

I actually thought Kolasinac, until he seemed to tire the last 20 minutes or so, the Bosnia left back, had a very good game and kind of shut Sajan Buchanan down to a certain extent.

Buchanan, again, I would put him not quite in the David category, but similar in that you have to give him another go, I think.

I don't think you want to kind of

be too reactionary with a player like that and dent kind of his confidence by taking him out of the team.
