Welcome back to another episode of Forge Daily! Today, Mackenzie chats with Charlie O’Connor Clarke about Forge FC’s current form, the team's depth amid player availability issues, and the potential threats posed by the Halifax Wanderers this weekend. We also hear from Elimane Cisse on how he has been adjusting since arriving in Hamilton and why he decided to return!
Key Takeaways:
- Cisse is thrilled to be back, having always wanted to return due to his love for his teammates, the coaching staff, and the Forge community between 2019-2022.
- Coach Bobby was complimentary toward Nana Ampomah after the Cavalry match, noting that he brought a different kind of attack that Cavalry may not have anticipated or been prepared for.
- Cisse is familiar with many of the players but is currently reintegrating into the squad and working to get back into match form after a six-month hiatus.
- Charlie mentioned that Daniel Parra is a strong contender for Defender of the Year in 2024.
- Looking at the end-of-year awards, Kwasi Poku is the frontrunner for U-21 Player of the Year, and Chris Kalongo is in contention for Goalkeeper of the Year.
