Great to see Tajon back & also the fact that we have excellent competition for the winger positions, as it will only make them all better. Tajon is so talented, that it really does come down to his playing time at Inter & building up his confidence again. He has always had the desire. It is only a matter of time before Tajon wins back a #1 winger position
This is a very important discussion, imo. With the calibre of player Buchanan is, we simply need to see him integrated again asap. I'm of the mind that Adekugbe should slot into the LB and Davies push forward. That pairing is the best we've seen on the left for Canada. We need to get a look at it again ahead of '26. But assuming that doesn't happen, with Millar out, now is the obvious time to keep Ahmed on the right (he's been a beast!) and put Buchanan on the left wing. They can even switch back and forth. Keep Shaff as the super sub weapon that he is. I just prefer Sam as the pairing with Davies on the left because Sam will have enough defensive mindedness to cover for Davies, and my goodness, we need someone covering for him so he can work his magic freely.
So simple. If and when he plays, anywhere, he can demonstrate his form. He has not been a plus starter for CANMNT for quite some time, and with his long-time injury, well...he certainly doesn't have a guaranteed spot. Tajon will get his chance to show his ability in the Marsch system, but he has to prove his superior utility. When a uni-dimensional player like Shaff has shown so much that he is the 50/50 starter, Tajon has an uphill battle.

So happy that he has recovered from his injury. He needs to get some minutes on the pitch for Inter to show he is on form.
