I work at expressvu and am actually at work now in the master control and even on rogers it isn't a standard channel. it is a channel they use for different live events and then get a special feed from GolTV and put it on there.

We did the HD thing for the TFC vs Real Madrid game as it was so big, but the costs to get these extra feeds from GolTV and create a channel for them to just show 3-4 games a year (as very few of their games are in HD too). It just isn't worth it until they go more all out with it. But trust me, I have brought it up a few times with the people in programming ;)

He started over on the right side at kickoff, quickly shifted left. Labrocca started left, shifted right. That was about 5 mins in.

JDG just seems to not have any heart in his play. He is jogging around the pitch and doesn't seem to throw himself in there. Almost like he's going through the motions, but doesn't actually care if we get scored on (or if we score). I don't know if he's just really frustrated with his teammates, or doesn't view this as "real soccer" or what, but I get the distinct impression he is pretty apathetic about what happens to this team.

Alternately, whenever Sanyang is on the pitch, though obviously not as skilled, he seems to throw his body in the way whenever he can, and I get the impression he would die to prevent the ball from going in the net.

It seems all good things TFC go through Cronin. He has a great soccer IQ

I was going to say something like this. I'd rather have Cronin then an uninspired JDG. I hope a light switch goes on in his head.

Why is everybody getting on JDG's case? I don't think he's played badly. He could be more mobile, but that's not TFC's style. Also it doesn't help that his central midfield partner Saric is awful

If that's the case, those using the mirror should be removed, and the game stopped by the ref until that happens. That's an outside influence on the match.

Casey reminds me a lot of Dichio. And it's not just the bald look. He walks around slowly waiting to pounce, like a predator. Only hurries when needed, and looks very dangerous every time he touches the ball deep.


I was thinking the same thing. What if things had worked out from the start with Casey? There might not have even been a Dichio in TFC red.

Fuck sake, Wynne will get those through passes all the time. Play out wide, put crosses in, I imagine Wynne can't win to many headers. So put more crosses in pfff.

Whats with the JDG bashing? Hes won a lot of battles in midfield. Its also hard to keep the ball when the defenders just lob it over everyone everytime. Give me a break.

The players are static and will be quickly closed down. TFC needs more movement in the midfield, they're too-rigid and predictable. Also the backline needs to switch the ball much faster. The problem is they're not confident as they have played much with each other.

Why are tfc playing through the middle making through passes?

Because we have about as much width as Kate Moss right now. Our "wingers" aren't really wingers. They have no pace, no ability to take on the man, don't make smart runs off the ball, they are about as threatening as a basket full of kittens. So they aren't creating any space out there so the ball inevitably gets lumped through the center.

Don't fool yourself though, Marvell Wynne isn't the answer to anything...
