Starting for Valour FC against Atlético Ottawa in the Canadian football hub.

As a AM?

Kind of guy that possibly comes into mix for the Nix season 2020/2021, depending on what happens to the existing player group. Cue widespread hernias, nostril flaring.

Canadian season done and dusted by next month. No idea how long he signed with Valour for earlier this year. Might make Hay's AWs squad for Belgium if the game happens, and he can enter the EU.

Valour up 1-0 when he came off, having just taken the lead with a pen, with an Atlético Ottawa player sent off.

Valour with 2 late goals, post the 90 mins.

Looks like they need to win their final game against top of the table Forge, and hope some other results go their way to make the semi finals.

Scores 2nd goal for Valour in a 2-2 draw verus top of the table Forge. 

Full game.

Valour 5th at the moment, after completion of their round robin games (other teams could still overtake them further), and miss out on the semis.

What next for Dyer? Will still be fresh. Only played about 4-6 full games in 2020. 2021 Canadian season I'm guessing is probably 6 mths away, if Valour want him back. Need that Winnipeg snow to melt away.

Eastern Suburbs in Handy Prem?  Lower level gig in Europe?  Has Hay been in touch re possible callup?

From this week's Flying Kiwis. A few months now in a Scandi lower league?

"Valour had injuries along the way and there’s zero margin for error in a seven-game season anyway... now it’s four months before the next season which it sounds like means Moses might be looking for a plane ticket back to Europe for a new club in the meantime.

Moses Dyer: “Some teams gel earlier and sooner than others. You can see that our team our team is really together and we’re building on something for next year, something special... Here in Canada having four months off is way too long. It’s so disappointing that it’s finished now but I can’t do anything about it so I have to look for something.”

Up Next: Dunno"

His headed goal from last Valour game is at about 1.40 in the video.

First 8 games for Valour are over the course of 4 weeks, so one would assume there will be plenty of rotation of the squad over that time to avoid injuries and the like. 

Seems like a good level for the lad over there, and from reading through a bit about the league in general and from those at his club too, he is a well respected fella. Hopefully kicks on and has a good season. Not a rich league ($650k - $850k CAD$ salary cap for players) by any means, but a good stepping stone, in a progressive league. Perhaps a few more of our aspiring pro footballers from back here could look to Canada in order to get a pro gig too.

Exactly what ex-Waitak and Teedubs youngster Ollie Bassett did - scored and got MOTM on his debut with Pacific FC yesterday. You’re right, it’s shaping up to be a really promising pathway

Hopefully just a bit of early season rotation going on, with a heavy schedule still to come in the next 2-3 weeks. Good to see him doing well and scoring goals, even if they are from the penalty spot. 

Good start to the season for Valour too, making the most of playing at home in Winnipeg - six scored and none conceded, with five more matches left in the bubble. Promising signs ahead.

Dyer the pen specialist. Another from the spot, and Valour's only goal in a 1-0 win over Atlético Ottawa (6th).

Dyer subbed on at 65 mins, and scored the pen (his 3rd for the season) at 84 mins. As he scored in the final game of last season (from open play), he actually has 4 goals in his last 7 competitive matches for Valour.

They stay top.

Love seeing his Instagram stories from Valour! Are they expected to be a title contender? 

I watched the highlights, and the commentator for the pre match part of them said they were a surprise package thus far, and that they were expected to struggle this season.

What is probably helping their cause a little bit too is the fact the 'cpl hub' is based in Manitoba for the first 8 games of the season. So they're really making the most of their home ground advantage so far. Good to see Dyer in the mix, can understand, the rotation too with games being back to back to back for this first month of the season.

Now that home advantage has ended with the Winnipeg hub finishing, it's unravelling a bit for Valour (2nd), with 3 consecutive losses. A 2-1 loss away to Pacific (1st) in Victoria, Vancouver Island.

Back in the side and contributes an assist for Valour's third goal as they see off Atlético Ottawa 3-2 in the Preliminary round of the Canadian Championship. Full 90 for Dyer, and Valour back in the winners circle for the first time since July 19th in the Canadian Premier League.
 
Valour progress to the next round against Forge on September 15th. Unfortunately for Valour they didn't get the dream tie against MLS sides Montreal or Toronto. Vancouver play their Preliminary round match next Friday, so assume they'll be in there as well.
