As per Toronto FC facebook page as well as

http://www.torontofc.ca/node/4309

Looks like we'll be without Cannana for this one. Suitable replacements include, well...Nick Garcia. This is where we stand now. Ty Harden and Emmanuel Gomez are not available due to injury.

Doneil Henry and Mirko Medic come to mind. Both had impressive showings, and are better options then Nick Garcia.

What do you think? Who should play D for us tomorrow?

Henry can't play, he does not have a professional contract. If he does sign/play, he loses his NCAA eligibility.

To turn Henry into a pro at his age could hinder his development. Mirko Medic on the other hand is a viable option and could honestly not be worse then what we have. Medic should be signed.

I'm telling you, Nick Garcia is only here because of a billion dollar clause in his contract which prevents him from being released. It's the only thing keeping him here. But, that's a different topic for a different day.

I would like to see this back 4 for the FC Dallas match:

-----Gargan----------Medic------------Cann--------Hscanovics

and if Medic isn't available, we could move Saric there? Maybe he could play CB, and there's always Sanyang too...Usanov could also move to RB and Gargan could play CB ala Marvell Wynne.

Why would we call up Henry? I thought he signed with New York?!!! :o


Anyway that sucks. I love Nana.

Garcia or Nane will fill in if Nana isn't playing.

Garcia is a good buddy of Mo's and Preki's....no way they release him....unfortunately...

No Garcia is being paid by San Jose and at this time has a uncancelable contract (for lack of a better word). You wont see him back after his contract has expired.

Gargan - Cann - Garcia - Hscanovic

Sucks but that's the only formation I see Preki using tommorrow.

I would prefer Usanov - Cann - Garcia - Gargan. But hey, it really isn't that much of a difference. It's like saying I prefer a hand ball over a red card :D

Garcia is awesome... best left back we have!

It would be nice to see that new signing that Mo has in mind turn out to be an LB that can also play CB. This way Sir pylon the 2nd claims his rightful place riding pine for the rest of the season! But I'm a dreamer. Also say what you want about preki but he has delivered well so far. His real test is ahead though. This is the point in the season where we start running out of gas.

I agree...he is at his best when he's left back....at home.

To be fair he plays well sometimes but that's not the kind of player you want in your back line.

This is a mark of how important Attakora is to our team ... I've been considering getting an Attakora jersey for sometime ... with players coming and going over the past three years I've held off on getting a TFC jersey ... would people here agree that an Attakora jersey would be a wise choice?

When it comes to buying jerseys I don't usually like to get the #1 star (e.g., Bosh, Sundin, Derosario, Dicchio, JDG) but a player who works hard, plays well, and shows promise of being around for sometime.

I say get your own name on the jersey. Some day attakora will go. Players come and go, supporters are here forever. A wise man who played for RPB Durham fc told me that once and its so true.

Hscanovics didn't look to bad in the centre in the second half

I think that you're right, but hopefully it will be:

Gargan-Garcia-Cann-Hscanovic

^that way all the bad isn't on the same side of the pitch

I think he has the technical ability, but speed and strength are killing him.

What about Usanov in the centre?

Gargan - Usanov - Cann - Garcia/Hsc.

Usanov is taller than Garcia, so in terms of 'late-replacement' he might slot in there better. I wonder if he's ever played that position before.

But actually, reading Luke Wileman's latest post, it seems there's still a chance Nana could get in. They're 'monitoring him' at this stage, apparently.
