Match Thread: TFC vs. LA Galaxy

[TFC USA]

I'm pissed off already so a TFC loss today and I may, just may, punch a random baby.

[TFC USA]

I have no idea who Alex Pruz is, but he must be better than Toledo.

[TFC USA]

This crowd sounds dead. No surprise.

[TFC USA]

Good defending from Nana.

I hate Robbie Fucking Findley. :facepalm:

[TFC USA]

Dero is offside. Very close.

[ag futbol]

God this lineup is lifeless.

Hoping Dero can steal one, because it looks pretty dire.

[TFC USA]

This has the makings of a 0-0.

He's actually a halfway decent and knowledgeable ref. Tends to let players play when he can.

He's also on twitter:

I know LA is a good team, but I thought John Carver was coaching this team in the first half the attack was so predictable and stale.

Is this the FSC feed or Sportsnet feed?

These L.A. commentators are driving me insane.

[pekduck]

^better than nothing as i'm not in BMO

[LesH]

This one is going towards a 0-0....

[The Oz]

sadly it is the la guys

[ExiledRed]

im enjoying watching us try to break them down, and build creative attacks.
We deserve a goal.

[LesH]

So what's the problem with DeGuz and Barrett?
Will ever be able TFC to field the best team or always at least 1-2 of the best players will be out this season? :(

[dclaro]

sadly it is the la guys


i wish sportsnet would stream online like cbc does

[James17930]

Yeah, it's been decent so far, considering the break and the fact that the atmosphere in the stadium is not what it usually is.

I agree we deserve one more than them. If we could squeak out of this 1 - 0 I would be extremely happy.

[Shakes McQueen]

I know LA is a good team, but I thought John Carver was coaching this team in the first half the attack was so predictable and stale.

We created several decent chances, so the strategy has worked decently thus far. Just need to get more shots on target.

I've been okay with our play to this point. We are extremely rough around the edges, but then again, these guys haven't played in three weeks.

I was wondering this too - where are JDG and Barrett? I can't imagine Preki is "resting" them, given the three week break.

Do they have knocks I don't know about?

- Scott

[pekduck]

^
on tfc website
both suffering injuries and questionable

or.. read our 'Today's News' thread ;)

[sulfur]

DeRo's been passing like a Frenchman at the World Cup. Right to the opponents all the time this half. :(

Barrett on for White. JDG is dressed and on the bench at least too.

[ag futbol]

This the players we have out there right now collectively plays with the soccer iq of a team of timbits.

Really hoping JDG cleans some shit up out there, because we look listless going forward.

[sulfur]

JDG's standing waiting for the sub now...

for Saric.

[pekduck]

30 min of de guz is a good sign, at least he's recovered enough to play

[Shakes McQueen]

Hopefully Julian can increase the overall quality of our passing. DeRo is having a rough night.

- Scott

[sulfur]

In the pre-game, Preki said that neither Chad nor JDG were fit enough to play the full 90 and that he'd prefer not to use 'em.

[Shakes McQueen]

Man, Hscanovics got embarrassed there.

- Scott

[James17930]

L.A. have been much better than us so far this half.

[Oldtimer]

TFC is playing quite defensively.

[sulfur]

Gala in for Peterson. Peterson looked a bit awkward after that two-foot tackle at the top of the box.

Ricketts has gone down for a long time for kicking the bottom of DeRo's foot there.

[Shakes McQueen]

Sorry attempt by Ricketts to try and get DeRo carded. Ref was wise not to buy it.

- Scott

[James17930]

God these commentators are fucking idiots.

De Ro did pull his foot back. there was like a quarter second's worth of contact.

[sulfur]

You mean that it wasn't a two-footed studs-up leg-breaking tackle by DeRo on Ricketts? :)

[LesH]

The play in the final 3rd of the field was total shit today for TFC... at least until now.

[justin]

i love how these retard american announcers think garcia is an asset lol

[James17930]

We need to work on our first touches -- we're mostly always too heavy.

[sulfur]

Good pass by DeRo there, and a nice defensive play by the LAG player to stop JDG from taking a shot.

[James17930]

Please fucking score.

[sulfur]

Nice dummy from Chad to allow the shot from Gala (which sucked). But it caught the entire LAG defense totally off-guard.

[James17930]

Wow -- we have World Cup quality players -- they send it 15 feet over the net too.

[sulfur]

4 minutes of added time.

[WhoAteAllthePie]

i love how these retard american announcers think garcia is an asset lol


he is an asset... normally for the other team...

and also, lets not forget there are american TFC fans(namely Me, amongst others) lets not shit on them because they are American... :rolleyes: :)

[sulfur]

For the "top GK" in the MLS, Ricketts has looked very shaky and awkward tonight. Dropping 2-3 balls, and almost misplaying 2-3 others.

And another 0-0 draw. Well, we've taken 4 points off of the top team in the MLS.

[Oldtimer]

Pretty well what I expected.

[justin]

hey i'm in no way shitting on americans in general, i did specify those announcers to be fair :)
