I would suspect Guevara, Robert, Sutton has been worthy, a few could be in the cards now.

Guevara, Crouch and Michael Owen.

:D

My guess would be Guevara.

Maple Leaf Red

I would have to say Guevara and Sutton have really strong cases right now and Robert has an outside chance.

Guevara. I can't see Sutton getting the nod for some reason hes just not hugely well known in the league, If he gets onto the ballott we'll for sure do our best to put him there but realistically i think we're looking at just Guevara.

Red CB Toronto

Guevara is my top choice I will declare

Yeah, Sutton would have to be a supporter initivative. Guevara has the name recognition and the goals so far so I think if he keeps it up he'll be a shoe-in.

I would guess Amado as well, since he's been a former MVP in the league. But I honestly don't know the rest of the league well enough to know which players are shoo-ins at what positions compared to our guys.

That said, how about Beckham and 10 TFC guys?

Guevara, Robert and Sutton in my books.

If Wynne were to get some press for the job he does, I'd say he'd get the nod. But Robert or Sutton should get the nod (if not both).

GingerNinja
05-14-2008, 10:13 AM
Sutton for sure!
And probably Robert & Guevara too.
Plus a good number of reserves.

Sutton will be hurt by the Goals Against... notice how no journalist has put him in their Top XI... they just see the inflated number that came from the DC game and nothing else

I'd say Guevara is a definite, Robert would be nice but I'm not too sure

Wagner
05-14-2008, 10:16 AM
any idea when the ballot comes out?

should we start an online campaign for Sutton?
we know it's fixed, but we might as well try our hardest to be heard.

Guevara for sure... maybe Jimmy B.

05-14-2008, 11:18 AM
Andrea Lombardo ??

Seriously, I think it's going to be Guevara and Jimmy B. I think Sutton should get the nod, but he wont since they are going to look at his goals against as a poster said before.

werewolf
05-14-2008, 11:20 AM
Robbo, if he keeps playing like he is.

05-14-2008, 11:24 AM
The question isn't who but how many?

Velvet Elvis
05-14-2008, 11:26 AM
Guevara and Robert

05-14-2008, 11:31 AM
I know that i want Robert and Guevara....unless he wakes up i don't see Edu there...

05-14-2008, 11:35 AM
well....the ballots are up:D lets do our thang!

05-14-2008, 11:40 AM
I think Sutton will get the call. It's a little while until the game and his continued performances will do wonders. Also Guevara, cause the American media think he's incredible.

ensco
05-14-2008, 11:41 AM
Wynne. I'd bet money on it.

TorontoBlades
05-14-2008, 11:42 AM
Guevara, Sutton, Wynne, Robert

...and they'd probably add on Sheva for us as well, for publicity, even though he'd only have a couple of games under his best

Yohan
05-14-2008, 11:47 AM
Guevara, then Robert... Sutton if he keeps playing like world class keeper and TFC rings up clean sheet like it's the laundry day

Flashman
05-14-2008, 11:48 AM
Guevara definately, Wynne should be, maybe Robert

Super
05-14-2008, 11:50 AM
We have quite a few players that could be fortunate enough to be invited to play on the All-Star team. Definitely Guevara (he must be the favourite). Sutton should be considered, too, and then we have Robert and Wynne, and then maybe Brennan, too.

PureTFC
05-14-2008, 12:28 PM
Edu, just for the american presence

Artur3575
05-14-2008, 12:46 PM
Robert and Amado

Leprechaun
05-14-2008, 01:03 PM
Guevara is a for sure imo and Wynne definately deserves it as well. Seriously what RB is better and as athletically gifted as Marvell? Also...Sutton deserves it but he probably won't be there because he isn't a big enough name. These 3 players are the only ones on TFC that I think stand a chance and mayyyybe Robert. :)

giambac
05-14-2008, 01:46 PM
:confused:
Sutton?
Brennan?
one of the new midfielders?

If the game was tomorrow 2players on our team would be worthy of playing on the MLS Allstars.

Wynn and Guevera

tfctillidie
05-14-2008, 01:46 PM
Guevara (most likely)...I would like to see anyone between Robert, Sutton, Brennan, and Marvell Wynne to represent TFC with Amado in the All Star game

bhoybobby
05-14-2008, 04:43 PM
Guevera
Sutton
Marshall
Brennan
Robinson

in that order of preference. Ricketts & Robert have been bit players so far, Ricketts IMO has been dissapointing to date. Robert is very economical in his application of work rate.

RPB_TFC_FAN
05-14-2008, 04:52 PM
Guevara and Sutton for sure.
Robert possibly
Wynne could be

Fiin
05-14-2008, 07:40 PM
I think Sutton, Robert, Guevara and Wynne could all make a strong case.

Chapman
05-14-2008, 07:41 PM
I definitely would go for Wynne to get a start.

noochie
05-14-2008, 07:54 PM
Robert methinks. He has been the catalyst early on. I would like Amado there as well.

S_D
05-14-2008, 08:01 PM
I could see Guevara, Sutton and Robbo as it stands now. Honourable mentions to Ricketts, Jimmy B. and Robert if they keep playing like they are.

superfrankielampard
05-14-2008, 08:04 PM
Wynne and Guevara in the starting 11

TFC OZZ
05-14-2008, 08:32 PM
Good chance:
Guevera
Brennan
Wynne

Possibly:
Robert
Edu
Sutton - I just don't think enough of the league respects him

Excellent question. One that deserves two excellent answers:

1) Robert

2) Guevara

Laurignano
05-14-2008, 11:16 PM
Guevera..thats it.
and I dont even want him to represent us b/c he might get injured.

3)Robert

^ Shit. Dmac41 has a good point about Wynne.

05-15-2008, 02:54 AM
Ricketts is getting zero love here... It's not just who scores goals, but who creates them and stops them. The MLS All-Star team will not be a squad of scorers, it will have wingers, defenders and goalkeepers as well... My hope is Brennan for his service and stalwart defending as well as multi-position ability and Wynne for what he has created since he has come here... Players that have played a few games for the club should not receive the admiration over the players mentioned.

Are you suggesting he's going to be this year's Ronnie O'Brien? Hmmmm.........

egoodwin
05-15-2008, 09:09 AM
is there a home team quota, like there is in the nhl allstar game?

giambac
05-15-2008, 10:02 AM
I just voted for my starting 11 on the MLS website.

I vote dfor only TFC players

Sutton, Wynn and Guevera. The reamining players from TFC on the ballot don't deserve to be there. I would rather see the best players from the league at each position than our own TFC players who shouldn't be there (sorry Dicchio, Edu, Robert,Rickett, Marsall, Brennan, Valez and Cunningham)

jloome
05-15-2008, 10:03 AM
It SHOULD be: Guevara, Robert, Wynne, Robinson (who is doing a phenomenal job in a thankless task), maybe Sutton, maybe Ricketts (people who say he hasn't done much should go back and watch the tapes, as he's the second-best crosser of the ball this team's had after Robert, and probably the best ball handler).

It will be: Guevara, Edu, Wynne. Get used to it people, TFC are Canadian and therefore already being well lined up to be the whipping boys of the league haters; first, we're a bunch of hooligans 'cos three guys take a piss in someone's hard; then, according to almost every other teams' fans at least, our four games without a loss accoutn for nothing and if we signed Brian McBride or another popular american it would be some kind of international treaty incident; then, the streamer issue (again and again, despite the players saying they like it.)

I'm not sure if its petty jealousy, xenophobia or just mild resentment, but it'll be reflected in who they pick from this team. Edu doesn't deserve it so far but will probably get the political nod over those who do. But as someone who spends A LOT of time going over other teams boards to guage the state of the league, I'm betting that for years, whenever this team is doing well, a swath of the American fans will act like some crapped in their cornflakes

El Lobo= Great Chance
Marvelous= Good Chance

Robert<Ricketts , EDU????:confused:

What have you been watching?

Robert has looked good but he shouldn't be an allstar midfielder with Beckaham, Blanco and DeRosario on the ballot list.

Ricketts - the only thing he has done so far is blown a 4 on 1 opportunity in his first game. He didn't pass the ball or even take a shot. He will improve with time but definetly not an allstar. There's probaly 10 midfiledders in the league who are better than him at this point in the season.

Edu - are you kidding me? He had a great rookie season last year and the expectaions on hime this year were high. However, he has looked confused at times this year and hasn't been consistent.

I know you would like to see several TFC players on the team but realistically there are only 3 worthy candidates.....Sutton,Wynn, and Guevera.

adammac
05-15-2008, 02:35 PM
I really think that the only player who has a really good shot at getting to the all-star game is Wynne because really there isn't a vast amount of talent in the MLS at RB. When I mean all-star I mean going to be a starter on the team. I can see El Lobo being on the bench because it is hard to pick him over Blanco.

Brennan is a darkhorse in this, he does have a shot at it as well but at the end of the day I can see Wynne and El Lobo there.

Guevara will be most likely because everybody's already familiar with him and he's seen as the main force behind our attack.

(1st post, v00t)

Captain Croatia

I want to say Robert, but i dont think he will make it. Guevara is definatly up there as well as Sutton with his recent form of Godness(Lol)

I would say Guevara but i don't think Robert

05-16-2008, 12:05 AM
hopefully no TFC players make it to this useless and meaningless all-star team so that i dont feel bad for cheering on the Hammers.

MKR
05-16-2008, 07:46 AM
Amado will be there for sure. without a doubt. you can book that.

I'd say the others that stand a good chance are Robert and Wynne.

I think it's kind of important to get a few of the reds in the game as it is on our home soil and the team has shown that it is one of the top sides in the league right now.

As for Brennan: he's solid but he's not a league all star.

Guevara and Wynne
