Thanks as always Denime.

Good news on Danny. Hopefully his pairing with Earnshaw pays off quickly.

The Weekly Update: Toronto FC is actually a Revs page.

So happy to see koevermans back. One thing this team does not show on the field at the moment is hunger to win (probably haven't had it since DeRo). Hopefully Koevs can light a fire under these guys.

Payne does the usual. Wish they would just say we hope to build and get better and have a more successful season then the last.

Can't wait to see Danny K back. Love his attitude, hopefully it's contagious.

I see the article on TFC's website was corrected to say Danny Califf, not Ryan Califf? :picard:

"We have been in every single game in MLS," Payne said. "We have managed to find a unique series of ways to shoot ourselves in the foot, but I actually don't think we've been outplayed in a game yet this year."

Shit like this irritates me because it shows one of two things:

1. He's delusional and doesn't know what he's watching (I don't think this is the case)
2. He's full of shit and insulting the intelligence of the supporters who watch this team game in and game out.

Why does he feel the need to spout this nonsense?

I'm starting to think that MLSE is telling him to say something. Every year and every coach it's been the same line. Hasn't changed. I'm starting to feel that MLSE's grubby hands are still all over control of this team.

I understand the coach/management have to say they feel there in it. Have a chance ect but after the run we've been on you don't come out and say that or hang a "big time best player in the MLS" signing in the media.

Crazy isn't it? Certainly a forgivable typo but to me it's almost like a small symptom of something I suggest we've seen often with this organization. People who don't buy-in working for the team, while loyal fans / supporters watch from the outside willing to do just about anything to see this club win. Would anyone on this board have made that error? I like to think not.

Anyway, this is maybe an irrelevant piece of information... but some of the other rumors I've heard, about things that were offered to this club by its fans that would have made a huge difference that were completely ignored or dismissed by an seemingly entitled group of front office staff members, makes me want to puke.

Truth be told, Nelson has been saying the same thing after every game about being in every game.

And, compared to last season, we are in every game. Just not very competitive for long stretches.

These are comments from Payne and Nelson that would probably fly in another market, but in Toronto they just don't work. We aren't as naive as the average MLS fan and we've gone through nearly a decade of crap at this point. Payne especially, needs to adjust. He can't just gab away and expect people not to take note of the details of what he's saying.

??? Please elaborate, thank you.

We are in every game. We're only -5 on goal differential despite being 1-5-4. We are finding individual ways to shoot ourselves in the foot. Look at the shots on and area of possession, we're either equal to or not far behind most teams we play.

I tell you, even relatively ugly counterattack soccer looks a lot nicer when you start winning games.

We were neither against Columbus on the weekend. We may have had more of the ball but the Crew were better for sure. Higuain alone could have beat us in the first half.

"In every game" means you have enough chances to win, not that you were the better team. We had enough chances to win. Braun and Earnshaw bury theirs early, and it's a different game.

Um I think its how vague you're being that is making it an irrelevant piece of information.
