  19.  &lt;p&gt;A good signing as the club builds depth. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p id="NLfVS5"&gt;A great signing made as the club looks for more depth for the new season.  &lt;/p&gt;
  20. &lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p id="dFILdQ"&gt;CF Montréal announced on Friday the acquisition of Canadian midfielder Ilias Iliadis, who has agreed to a two-year contract for 2023 and 2024, including two options years in 2025 and 2026.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
  21. &lt;p id="39lOhs"&gt;A Canadian born player, Iliadis has a good chance to be part of the rotation here at CFM. The player was in Greece, but now gets his shot in his home born country and to compete in MLS.&lt;/p&gt;

  48.  &lt;p&gt;Where do we go from here....&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p id="u1GSp8"&gt;CF Montréal was dealt more bad news this week as the roster exodus continues. Kei Kamara came out on social media and requested a trade. &lt;/p&gt;
  49. &lt;div id="qMIZsp"&gt;
  50. &lt;blockquote class="twitter-tweet"&gt;
  51. &lt;p lang="fr" dir="ltr"&gt;Montréal    &lt;a href="https://t.co/uP6IcCW5I8"&gt;pic.twitter.com/uP6IcCW5I8&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;— KEI KAMARA (@keikamara) &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/keikamara/status/1613106264636280837?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw"&gt;January 11, 2023&lt;/a&gt;
  52. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  53. &lt;script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;
  54. &lt;/div&gt;
  55. &lt;p id="geb6iQ"&gt;While we don’t know specifics, the club looks likely to acquiesce the trade and could be on the look again for a striker. Kei performed relatively great as CFM’s striker both in spot starts and more notably as a super sub. &lt;/p&gt;
  56. &lt;p id="63sM90"&gt;The roster churn continues as they now add another striker to the list of needs. Kamara was a great piece and will surely be missed. &lt;/p&gt;

  72.      &lt;img alt="MLS: CF Montreal at Charlotte FC" src="https://cdn.vox-cdn.com/thumbor/027GB6SYk1ep4HATRkd53a7Q3eU=/3x0:2714x1807/1310x873/cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_image/image/71837155/usa_today_18272303.0.jpg" /&gt;

  74.    &lt;/figure&gt;
  75.  
  76.  &lt;p&gt;A big piece of good news. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p id="jTie3U"&gt;Very good piece of news as the club announced, Victor Wanyama has been signed to a two-year contract for the 2023 and 2024 seasons. He will remain a Designated Player with the Club.&lt;/p&gt;
  77. &lt;p id="yxdtX0"&gt;Excellent news as we heard from GM, VP and more in Mr. Renard: &lt;/p&gt;
  78. &lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p id="oL1SqY"&gt;“We are glad to have concluded a new deal with Victor and that he remains with us,” said Vice-President and Chief Sporting Officer, Olivier Renard. “During the last three seasons, he has been an important player on the field and in the locker room. His personality, his experience, and his qualities as a player will notably help us with the stability of the group for the season to come.” &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
  79. &lt;p id="MrM5Lk"&gt;Victor also acknowledged the positive news:&lt;/p&gt;
  80. &lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p id="xnUOqN"&gt;“I’m excited to stay at the club and the city where I have been so happy for the past three years,” said Victor Wanyama. “When I arrived here, I believed in the Club’s project. As we continue to grow, this is even more true. I am eager to continue bringing my best for my teammates, the coaching staff, and the Montreal supporters. “ &lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;
  81. &lt;p id="9DU4Zr"&gt;Very good news as Renard continues to prove he is one of the best soccer execs in MLS. To Wanyama’s return they have added Aaron Herrera, George Campbell and will look to continue bolster the team as they look for a winger and striker, both could be DP’s. &lt;/p&gt;
  82. &lt;p id="LcG2iy"&gt;All CFM supporters should be happy with the signings as the exodus the club saw in manager, players and influx of money, it was not easy to rebuild this side. &lt;/p&gt;
  83. &lt;p id="uG8OML"&gt;They still have work to do, but they have re-signed a great piece here. &lt;/p&gt;

  100.        &lt;figcaption&gt;David Kirouac-USA TODAY Sports&lt;/figcaption&gt;
  101.    &lt;/figure&gt;
  102.  
  103.  &lt;p&gt;More news as we finally have a head coach. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p id="4bi4re"&gt;CF Montréal have announced the hiring of Hernan Losada as the Argentine manager takes over for Wilfried Nancy. Let’s give you one positive and one negative.&lt;/p&gt;
  104. &lt;div id="JwnTz5"&gt;
  105. &lt;blockquote class="twitter-tweet"&gt;
  106. &lt;p lang="und" dir="ltr"&gt;¡Bienvenido Hernán!&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Hernán Losada nommé entraîneur-chef du CF Montréal &amp;gt;&amp;gt;&amp;gt; &lt;a href="https://t.co/4c7ZCFqXes"&gt;https://t.co/4c7ZCFqXes&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Hernán Losada named head coach of CF Montréal &amp;gt;&amp;gt;&amp;gt; &lt;a href="https://t.co/Yx65vDgMhP"&gt;https://t.co/Yx65vDgMhP&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/CFMTL?src=hash&amp;amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw"&gt;#CFMTL&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="https://t.co/GzjCJ0xtdI"&gt;pic.twitter.com/GzjCJ0xtdI&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;— CF Montréal (@cfmontreal) &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/cfmontreal/status/1605624272478736384?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw"&gt;December 21, 2022&lt;/a&gt;
  107. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  108. &lt;script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;
  109. &lt;/div&gt;
  110. &lt;p id="pFX6yv"&gt;Positive, is the great Oliver Renard has maintained the three man system with bombing fullbacks that we have as that is Losada’s system. With that, staying and adding some more press we can expect some energy drink soccer akin to RB Leipzig in Germany. &lt;/p&gt;
  111. &lt;p id="uF7UVU"&gt;Negative, he can be a domineering presence as his time at &lt;a href="https://www.blackandredunited.com"&gt;DC United&lt;/a&gt; showed. From perhaps excessive conditioning to strict diet/weigh ins, we could have a problem depending on how has changed or has not. &lt;/p&gt;
  112. &lt;p id="j4DXQ1"&gt;Fret not, I’d expect some real change as he needs to or else this won’t be successful. &lt;/p&gt;
  113. &lt;p id="6b7xES"&gt;Moving in, we had the MLS Draft! Perhaps not as important as before, it is still a great idea to build depth. CFM added three players: defender Milo Garvanian (University of North Carolina) with the 25th pick of the second round (54th overall), defender Ousman Jabang (Mercer University) with the 17th pick of the third round (75th overall), and goalkeeper Nick Christoffersen (University of Pennsylvania) with the 25th pick of the third round (83rd overall).&lt;/p&gt;
  114. &lt;p id="5RvT5W"&gt;All great depth that can add some presence and fill out the roster. &lt;/p&gt;

  134.  &lt;p&gt;More and more news as the off season begins to heat up! &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p id="tMZXkz"&gt;The 2023 MLS seasons schedule has been released and we have some awesome games to look forwards to! Starting with opening weekend:&lt;/p&gt;

  136. &lt;blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-conversation="none"&gt;
  137. &lt;p lang="en" dir="ltr"&gt;The 2023 season kicks off on February 25th. &lt;a href="https://t.co/14j2cuUtdm"&gt;pic.twitter.com/14j2cuUtdm&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;— Major League Soccer (@MLS) &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/MLS/status/1605277537046872064?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw"&gt;December 20, 2022&lt;/a&gt;

  139. &lt;script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;

  148. &lt;p id="C7bl2d"&gt;Then, we have the full schedule right here: &lt;/p&gt;

  152. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  153. &lt;script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;
  154. &lt;/div&gt;
  155. &lt;p id="hdk1zt"&gt;Ok, analysis time! &lt;/p&gt;
  156. &lt;p id="8rDhRA"&gt;First, we have almost a moth for League’s Cup, and I’m not sure I like that. A whole month of another tournament with little incentive to go hard in. We’ll see if the juice is worth the squeeze as the league look for more revenue. &lt;/p&gt;
  157. &lt;p id="wjGmU1"&gt;Second, May is going to be absolutely packed as the club has six league matches that month and could have heavy rotation. &lt;/p&gt;
  158. &lt;p id="sWsxzL"&gt;Third, September could be the key month to be rolling in to form as the club needs to be ready to close the season strong. After the dog days of summer, the League’s Cup and general attrition, the club needs to make sure they are ready to go for that month. &lt;/p&gt;
  159. &lt;p id="k1ZzfT"&gt;One more thing I wanted to touch is the proposed new playoff format, which frankly is bad. &lt;/p&gt;
  160. &lt;div id="VKwd39"&gt;
  161. &lt;blockquote class="twitter-tweet"&gt;
  162. &lt;p lang="en" dir="ltr"&gt;This appears to be in motion. Plan, I'm told, is for a total overhaul of the MLS postseason, featuring a "World Cup-style" competition - top 8 teams in each conference advance into a group stage, with the top 8 group stage finishers advancing to a single-elimination bracket. &lt;a href="https://t.co/WDmB9EXJcZ"&gt;https://t.co/WDmB9EXJcZ&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;— Pablo Iglesias Maurer (@MLSist) &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/MLSist/status/1605288517613113348?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw"&gt;December 20, 2022&lt;/a&gt;
  163. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  164. &lt;script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;
  165. &lt;/div&gt;
  166. &lt;p id="ls8UhJ"&gt;The report as highlighted above, would basically create a new system for the playoffs and I do not like it. A group stage playoffs with more games just demeans the regular season even more as if the month break did not do that. &lt;/p&gt;
  167. &lt;p id="mBfpjy"&gt;Plus, the new system is just a huge money grab as the playoffs were fine before despite the single round nature of it. &lt;/p&gt;
  168. &lt;p id="rKSk7u"&gt;Simplicity would be the key here. If the plan is in the future to have 30-32 teams, why can’t they do the top eight in each conference and go from there? There is no need to re-invent the wheel. &lt;/p&gt;
  169. &lt;p id="SA88sh"&gt;We’ll wait until it becomes official or does not, still keep it locked here as the off season begins to fire up! &lt;/p&gt;

  189.  &lt;p&gt;Two good pieces of news! &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p id="sE8AJO"&gt;Hello, we have new updates for you all! &lt;/p&gt;
  190. &lt;p id="IKPWSE"&gt;The club has been rumored to be near the completion of a deal for Salt Lake fullback, Aaron Herrera!&lt;/p&gt;
  191. &lt;div id="VifTzU"&gt;
  192. &lt;blockquote class="twitter-tweet"&gt;
  193. &lt;p lang="en" dir="ltr"&gt;BREAKING: CF Montreal are finalizing a deal with Real Salt Lake to acquire defender Aaron Herrera, per sources.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;RSL will receive $500k GAM + int’l roster spot + 1st rd SuperDraft pick from MTL.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Herrera, 25, is an RSL homegrown and made 124 apps for the club over five seasons. &lt;a href="https://t.co/bun1vpsFzv"&gt;pic.twitter.com/bun1vpsFzv&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;— Tom Bogert (@tombogert) &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/tombogert/status/1605266549933486080?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw"&gt;December 20, 2022&lt;/a&gt;
  194. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  195. &lt;script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;
  196. &lt;/div&gt;
  197. &lt;p id="lRBIpi"&gt;A really good deal that would help with Johnston’s departure, and one that sees the club sign another one of the league’s best young players. So, with George Campbell, a capable young defender and now Herrera, the club is well positioned to start the rebuild in earnest. &lt;/p&gt;
  198. &lt;p id="4478g0"&gt;Still, around two month remain to fill all the holes created this off season and the coach should be next, relatively soon. &lt;/p&gt;
  199. &lt;p id="ECBv7L"&gt;Second, Ismael Kone was crowned Canadian youth player of the year!&lt;/p&gt;
  200. &lt;div id="SUHXu6"&gt;
  201. &lt;blockquote class="twitter-tweet"&gt;
  202. &lt;p lang="fr" dir="ltr"&gt;Félicitations Isma  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Ismaël Koné nommé Jeune joueur de l'année 2022 par &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/CanadaSoccerFR?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw"&gt;@CanadaSoccerFR&lt;/a&gt;   &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Koné named 2022 &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/CanadaSoccerEN?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw"&gt;@CanadaSoccerEN&lt;/a&gt; Young Player of the Year. &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/CFMTL?src=hash&amp;amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw"&gt;#CFMTL&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="https://t.co/TKKw7iL6xs"&gt;https://t.co/TKKw7iL6xs&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="https://t.co/diBEekV9Hg"&gt;pic.twitter.com/diBEekV9Hg&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;— CF Montréal (@cfmontreal) &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/cfmontreal/status/1605318328217919489?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw"&gt;December 20, 2022&lt;/a&gt;
  203. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  204. &lt;script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;
  205. &lt;/div&gt;
  206. &lt;p id="vSYYjT"&gt;Kone had a breakout season with CFM and now is reaping the rewards as he has made his move abroad to England. A well deserved award with the player showing maturity and poise this season in some important matches as CFM had its best season in MLS. &lt;/p&gt;

  224.    &lt;/figure&gt;
  225.  
  226.  &lt;p&gt;A good and needed signing. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p id="OG1lUy"&gt;CF Montréal keep a goal keeper as James Pantemis has re-signed with the club.&lt;/p&gt;
  227. &lt;div id="9v3oZg"&gt;
  228. &lt;blockquote class="twitter-tweet"&gt;
  229. &lt;p lang="fr" dir="ltr"&gt;On se revoit en 2023!  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Entente d’un an et deux années d’option pour James Pantemis &amp;gt;&amp;gt;&amp;gt; &lt;a href="https://t.co/n9mptrH3KF"&gt;https://t.co/n9mptrH3KF&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;James Pantemis signs new contract for the 2023 season, with two option years &amp;gt;&amp;gt;&amp;gt; &lt;a href="https://t.co/2pl9nRuMkS"&gt;https://t.co/2pl9nRuMkS&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/CFMTL?src=hash&amp;amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw"&gt;#CFMTL&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="https://t.co/oyiT2KuNCr"&gt;pic.twitter.com/oyiT2KuNCr&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;— CF Montréal (@cfmontreal) &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/cfmontreal/status/1603767677645778944?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw"&gt;December 16, 2022&lt;/a&gt;
  230. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  231. &lt;script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;
  232. &lt;/div&gt;
  233. &lt;p id="MDI2KS"&gt;The new contract is for the 2023 season, with two option years in 2024 and 2025.  A good deal as CFM keeps their better performing keeper and Canadian National Team member at the World Cup. &lt;/p&gt;
  234. &lt;p id="GYYgI0"&gt;With another depth signing and a possible academy inclusion, the keeper options look solid heading in to 2023. &lt;/p&gt;

  254.  &lt;p&gt;A cool and awesome moment. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p id="4BJ2rh"&gt;Argentina are World Cup champions after a thrilling and really sensational victory over France. &lt;/p&gt;
  255. &lt;p id="fm2Xgs"&gt;In all the celebrations it was really cool and awesome to see Ignacio Piatti in Qatar as his national team won it all.&lt;/p&gt;
  256. &lt;div id="Z0naCL"&gt;
  257. &lt;blockquote class="twitter-tweet"&gt;
  258. &lt;p lang="fr" dir="ltr"&gt;Nacho Piatti aux premières loges! &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;It's a perfect Argentinean fiesta    &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;¡Felicidades &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/Argentina?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw"&gt;@Argentina&lt;/a&gt;!&lt;a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/FIFAWorldCup?src=hash&amp;amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw"&gt;#FIFAWorldCup&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="https://t.co/viwbN8zzdS"&gt;pic.twitter.com/viwbN8zzdS&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;— CF Montréal (@cfmontreal) &lt;a href="https://twitter.com/cfmontreal/status/1604549393394311170?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw"&gt;December 18, 2022&lt;/a&gt;
  259. &lt;/blockquote&gt;
  260. &lt;script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;
  261. &lt;/div&gt;
  262. &lt;p id="jL7IoC"&gt;Piatti is of course now part of CFM’s front office staff and was a bonafide star in the league. &lt;/p&gt;
  263. &lt;p id="2m3MHY"&gt;He played for Montréal from 2014-19 and earned two MLS Best XI nods (2016, ‘18). He also became the leading scorer in league play with 66 goals and 35 assists across 135 matches.&lt;/p&gt;
  264. &lt;p id="dMSGhW"&gt;A really good career and we are now happy to see his home country triumph once again. &lt;/p&gt;
