After starting last season with a dismal 1-6-1 record, the ‘Caps took 39 points from 26 games down the stretch. Ultimately, the run wasn’t enough and the club finished with a 12-15-7 record, missing the playoffs for the fourth time in five years.Article content “The pre-season is very important for the start of the season. So today in the first meeting, I told the guys that we need to go 100 per cent from the first day,” he said after his group’s first full day of training Monday.
Vancouver has since made a few additions, including Canadian defender Karfia Yao, who the club acquired from CF Montreal in the MLS re-entry draft. “He’s a young, intelligent, and tenacious defender,” he said. “Mathias is comfortable on the ball and brings a mix of experience as well as a potential for growth.”
Laborda may not be the last addition the Whitecaps make ahead of the regular season. Sartini said there could be “one or two” moves to come, but that he doesn’t want to keep a large roster of 30 players because he’d prefer to focus on 23 or 24 athletes.
