Kurtis Larson @ Toronto Sun-TFC Has To Do Better:

Maybe this guy was multi-tasking and only watched half of the game like I did and never really paid attention as to who was playing where on the field, but his analysis seems a bit off.



DESPERATION FORMATION

The Reds started in an extremely positive 3-4-3 system with Koevermans playing just behind Ryan Johnson, Joao Plata and Peri Marosevic.
But while Toronto looked dominant to start the game, the Reds looked set on sitting in and defending after scoring a pair of chance goals.

After switching to a 4-3-3 coming out of the break, Winter’s desperation was apparent when Mikael Yourassowsky’s entrance dropped Toronto into a 4-4-2 - a decision that inevitably conceded more than half the field in an effort to defend and preserve three points.

Although the club looked lifeless and massively fatigued throughout the second half, supporters shouldn’t overlook Winter’s willingness to adjust to circumstances after realizing TFC needed to defend with 10 men against an energized home side that looked fitter and sharper as the game wore on.



So the formation was this? Kinda 3-1-3-3?

----------------------------Kosic-------------------------
---------Eckersley---------Harden-------Robinson---------
-------------------------DeGuzman-----------------------
Stinson------------------Koevermans---------------Borman
--------Marosevic--------Johnson-------------Plata-------

It's Toronto Sun. End of Story.

I don't even bother reading the crap they write anymore. They're not getting my 'click'

MLS is nothing in Canada.
TV ratings are abysmal.
Attendance is awful.
Nobody cares or watches.
You won't see the MLS anywhere in Canada within 5 years.
It makes the NBA in Canada look like the NHL.


Of course, this thing's well known for trolling the comments section of the G&M and elsewhere saying how hockey, Canadian football, and curling are the only sports Canadians should follow and that anything else is tantamount to treason. Everyone needs to make fun of that retard.

The Sun has been trash and always will be trash. There's a wide variety of papers to read in print and online, I don't know why you'd want to read the yellow journalistic drivel they spew on a daily basis. To each their own, but I've never read anything worthwhile in that paper in my entire 30 years of life.

one thing about the stadium buried in the middle of the article:

the club has opted for pre-engineered stands that will allow the project to make budget without sacrificing the plans for covered roof sections.

I wonder what that means... "pre-engineered stands"? I would hope all stands are pre-engineered!

haha, imagine when they were building BMO - they let the construction workers design the stands on the Yellow Wendy's napkins during their lunch break, and then give it a try - see how it works :)

I just means the company building the stands have them designed and have the material on hands, rather then being custom built for the site. It's like getting a tattoo off the wall rather then designing your own. Or Buying a new Shed to build from a kit rather then designing it your self buying the wood cutting it, etc, etc.
