If Barrett and Mista both play we win 3-0.....it's quite simple...we draw or lose and we're finished...

Yes. We HAVE to win, and start winning big because if we go down to the wire, we may need the goal differential. Either way, we lose, and you may as well start hanging out with the wife more because this season would be pretty much over.

We'll win because it's an inferior team at home.

I'm scared of what I would do if this team loses or ties DC United at home.

If TFC can't win on Saturday they will be out of playoff contention and deservedly so. Ideally, the Reds will start regaining form against DC, cruise to an easy victory, San Jose will lose, and we will be 1 point out of a playoff spot...

Good luck tomorrow, 1 win, clean sheet and no bookings would be awesome.

Prediction: TFC 1 - DCU 0 ... DeRo scores on penalty(hand ball in box) ...

I agree in a sence. Although this game it would be ideal to go booking free, next game I think would be the best time to take a couple cards. I believe its DeGuzman and either Saric or Usanov that are sitting on a few yellows, and will miss a game if they get another card.

If we have to miss them, it would be best to miss them against San Jose while at home. Its almost guarenteed we will lose one or both of them, since the guys seem to make poor tackles constantly. Hopefully we can lose them while we will be at home, and strong, instead of while we are away, and weaker.

^Saric just missed a game, Usanov will be missing this game, De Guz is definitely just one booking away from a suspension.

I hope we really go for it.

-----------Frei----------------
Gargan, Cann, Attakora, Harden
-------De Guzman-------------
De Ro-----Mista-------LaBrocca
-----White------Maicon--------

If Mista's not fit, go with De Ro in middle and Peterson on wing.

HAHAHAHA! Is this for Chicago? It would be funny if this did happened.

This is a must win and a should win match. Anything else and we'll need a miracle to get into the playoffs.
I think it was DeRo who said that from now on every game is a playoff game.

Let the playoffs begin.

JDG already missed a game: NYRB at home.
He should be ok for a while...

Last game Forrest said that there were two players that were a card away from suspension, I could have sworn it was Julian

Julian just came off of a 1 game suspension due to accumulation. He should be reset, no?

Looking at the Numbers (http://tfcteens.blogspot.com/2010/09/looking-at-numbers.html)

"There’s still a good chance that Toronto FC can make playoffs this season. A couple of scenarios should be considered. If Toronto wins 5 games, they make it no matter what the other 2 games produce. If Toronto wins 4 games, it would take a further 2 draws. If Toronto wins only 3 games, the other 4 need to be draws, at even then we’re at 67%. So, what number should Toronto FC fans dream about as they go to sleep in their downtown condos? 42. 42 points will give Toronto FC an almost 80% chance of making playoffs. 43 means Toronto has a 90% chance, and 44%+ means we’re in."

TFC Line Up:
@LukeWileman (http://twitter.com/LukeWileman)#torontofc (http://twitter.com/search?q=%23torontofc) line up: Frei, Garcia, Attakora, Cann, Hscanovics, Gargan, Saric, de Guzman, De Rosario, Maicon, Mista

IMHO: this may be the most talented starting XI TFC has ever fielded, as a whole. There are individuals who prob should be replaced with others, if LaB was there I would be happier.

If they can't get it done, it may be time to blow up the team and start over.

Be interesting to see if Hscanovic has learned how to mark players yet. Looks good going forward, absolutely craptastic going back.

But this is about as much as we can offer, except to have chad wide instead of Gargan (hmmm, where have I seen that before?)

i like our lineup ... interesting to note that DC left boskovic, moreno, and najar on the bench to start

Wow, Mitch Peacock, you sham of a journalist. He promised to resign if they didn't make it, you asked the question in as softball a form as possible, then let him off when he doesn't answer it.

TV is such a joke.

Just about but still missing Barrett - I don't think we've ever had all our best players on the field even once

First they chirped about him during the Canada game and now a good long close up of him during the moment of silence...media whore lol
