Got a chuckle out of this comment from Gilberto

The thing that surprised me really is the speed at which the ball comes into you,” Gilberto said. “In Brazil, we’re more technical, and we build up the play. But here, the speed and the power the ball has when it comes to you was something I had to adapt to.”



That speed and power is probably more due to a lack of passing ability from Oduro and Jackson, than anything else.

Still like Gilberto, and, at 1/6 of the cost of Defoe...he is a relative bargain. English lessons, man, English lessons!!

I know it's his opinion but interesting that Larson does not mention Defoe as part of the core, important pieces for TFC. I agree, but it is interesting.

Also liked the comment "Perhaps that’s why he has no room for the talk coming out of Impact camp when their team captain Patrice Bernier (http://www.mlssoccer.com/players/patrice-bernier) said they’d like to ruin TFC’s season by eliminating them from postseason contention".

Should be an interesting match!

And I don't think that is a very bad thing, yes Defoe scored a bag of goals, and was nice to watch, seems to be a typical English, EPL player, no sense of TEAM.
