I made a post about this on the "former players" thread but I figured it was worth posting here as well since it has a few TFC tidbits (may be more to come when he answers more questions later tonight). If this isn't worthy of posting, please feel free to lock!
Going pro from Canada
My biggest struggle when I was younger was that we did not have any pro clubs. I was very fortunate that my parents are European which allowed me to play in England. Today kids do not have to worry about that because they can play in Major League Soccer.
Assistant GM role at TFC
It consisted of working along side the General Manager and trying to build a club with good players and a financially stable budget. You are always watching players and finding ways on how you can improve the roster. It is a lot of work that goes on behind the scenes and long hours.
Divide in TFC locker room
There wasn't a divide in the locker room. When the team is not performing fingers tend to get pointed and stories created. I had a good relationship with Mo and all my coaches I played for. As for an intermediary for Mo that is news to me. If I was that close I should of asked him for a longer contract with more money. lol
Best Food
Toronto FC had the best food out of all the clubs
