Vancouver making an armada this 2018 and going for the league shield



For the Caps Boss is business as usual and after seeing their Cascadia foes consecutive success in the past three campaigns. The Vancouver Whitecaps is building ahead in what looks a contested 2018 campaign in building it as an all-around armada.

So far in the preseason the Vancouver Whitecaps front office are hard at work in building that contender.

By getting the ideal players in an effort to rebuild this squad and not only make it to the postseason but all the way to the league finals and possible be the second Canadian entity to win the league shield after their cross country foes the TFC.

Manager Carl Robinson is hard at work in the club preseason, looking from its returning veterans to the newcomers to this team acquired in the offseason and young prospects of how to find the right initials eleven to front in what seems another tough campaign in MLS.

Still the club has put a lot of attention in reinforcing an area of much need and this was its frontal attack, with several strikers so far inked for the upcoming campaign. 

The state of new arrivals in its current core of strikers, the Caps manager is reinforcing it with a foursome in Venezuelan international Anthony Blondell, Kei Kamara, Australian Bernie Ibini, and New Zealander Myer Bevan to compliment with club academy Erik Hurtado and Yordi Reyna.

This crop of new strikers in the Caps camp send a message that manager Robinson and his Caps are looking forward to a prolific campaign filled with many goals and after last campaign with 50 goals in favor.

In addition, the club added more depth to its midfield with Mexican international Efrain Juarez who can make a one two combination with Brek Shea, the Caps with any of these strikers we may have a spectacular and full of fireworks attack.

In the defensive backfield with its majority of players coming back to BC Place, Tim Parker, Marcel de Jong, Brett Levis and Kendall Waston, these joined by another addition in former Premiership player and Hammer Doneil Henry.

Currently the club directives are hard at work and in talks to see several notable players of last campaign return to this club and continue their winning ways.

However, the Vancouver squad far from done in adding new players that can contribute dearly to the club in the whole campaign as well when it counts the most the postseason as their desire to close the circle among the three Cascadia squads. As both Timbers and Sounders already won the league shield, it is now turn for this Canadian squad to win it.

In spite of the competition in this campaign after many squads taking advantage of their Targeted Allocation Monies to reinforce their sides, but one thing this squad game has is a lot of depth and dynamic that has made them a force not to be messing with.

At the end for manager, Carl Robinson, in this preseason has achieved many goals among one of them the unity in his group and looking forward to get an excellent campaign from their game these have shown in all of their matches. 

Is he a happy man, indeed!  With a mission to deliver the shield, this club is missing and with no doubt for his club to deliver it with a notable finish among the top three spots in the Western Conference, winning the MLS shield for sure will round up this man all around happiness.
