DeGuzmans Impression on MLS

[gmacpheetfc]

Anybody have any clips or articles of what the rest of the MLS is saying about deguzman's signing at TFC be interested in what they think of him and how teams are going to prepare for him on the pitch?

[ArmenJBX]

They should be scared :D

[Blazer]

Here’s how it will go.

"Well there’s no doubt he’s a great talent, hell he’s a team Canada national, but his exposure to the MLS and it’s fans is limited. Given his track record, he’ll undoubtedly come into the MLS and make an immediate impact with TFC.”

It’s all the same contrived bullshit response nowadays.

LOL! so true Blazer!

from SBI

What's the SBI take? He has the talent to step in and be one of the best, and certainly one of the most influential, central midfielders in MLS. He won't score goals, but his workrate, leadership skills and vision will provide a boost that should help a TFC squad that was lacking a bit of fire in the lineup. The move is a bold one by Toronto FC, to go after a player who is still very much in his prime, a player who still had options in Europe. You can only hope that other MLS teams take notice and attempt similar moves to lure better and younger marquee talent to the league.

probably got to go with SH*T or a variation

[brad]

Well, this is what one of the big Crew/anti-tfc big soccer guys had to say this past summer after we played them (and JDG played in Columbus with the CMNT)

Yeah too bad(well not for us) you couldn't get Guzman. From watching him face to face against El Salvador, he was the real deal.

Dero is on fire right now and pair him up with Guevarra plus their new DP DeGuzman we might see our midfield disappear again. Chad Barret is not much of a threat so we are safe there.


also love this formation posts

I agree...

WE could easily do this on Saturday... just need one of the banner designer guys to cook something up given the dimensions....

[London]

i think if we made a few 3x5 banners, we could hang them or tie them together to mak a bigger banner


maybe we shouls clear out this section and move it to member section

[Shaughno]

Flush, keep me posted. I'll be in Toronto Saturday evening for a game at 7 and would be more than willing to help paint a banner.

That's what I was thinking...

We could have 3 banners side by side IMO

Left One - JDG
Middle One - Jersey with #6 DeGuzman
Right One - SH!T JUST GOT REAL

[Rudi]

I'm sure Flush would suggest that you show up early and help with the gridding of the big year-end tifo. ;)

Are you going to Chicago next week?

[Shaughno]

Yes sir I am. I'm not sure how much earlier I can get to Toronto due to some family visiting from England (take them to a pub for the Derby match, lunch, etc). If I can, I will.

[Blazer]

I have the material for a banner ... are we allowed "SH*T JUST GOT REAL" ???

I would think so... It's worth a try! and Rudi is right... we need Dichio tracers for this Saturday...

Many of them...

Blazer what kind of fabric? poly/cotton? red? grey? or black?

[English Rachel]

I'm at a wedding in Huntsville otherwise I would be there, sorry :(

We’ve got red … figured we could go with white lettering “SHIT JUST GOT REAL” with a pic of JDG’s face replacing the “i” in “SHIT”. That way it’s not so bad?!

How do I get his face blown up in this pic in order to project it?! Also, if anyone has a better action shot to pass along that would be great.

why not just JDG's pic + just got real

guaranteed to be allowed and serves the same impact

[Canadian Blue]

Most MLS fans probably don't even know who JDG is

[Blazer]

^ Why would they? Most TFC fans don’t know. Canadian soccer fans would but not all of them are TFC fans.

[Blazer]

Agreed but less humorous to those of us “in the loop”.

[drek]

I say keep "shit" just make it more PG :D
