Really looking forward to this game, even if just Criscito is ready.

I assume Insigne comes off the bench. That seems to be what every manager ever does with their big signings that arrive midseason. Plus, his fitness levels probably aren't quite there yet. Criscito could be 50/50 to start.

MightyDM
07-04-2022, 09:04 PM
Insigne starts of his calf is good is my guess. They are end of season fit. And if we still have Salcedo, Cristico at LB. If Salcedo is gone, assume it’s LB w Mavinga and ONeill. But really hard to say.

They were saying "festivities start at 715"

This is beginning to remind me of the "take every single opportunity to celebrate the 2017 cup win" thinking.

I get the welcome.

I get the "have them come out at half time" thing.

But...pre game festivities because its their first opportunity to play?!?!?!

Have there been any training ground pics of Insigne? Not to play armchair doctor, but he looked to me to be slightly limping when he was introduced. I'm somewhat skeptical that he gets any minutes on Saturday.

I don't think he will be in the line up this weekend. Not sure they're going to force anything if he isn't real close to 100%.

Insigne training with the team. I think he plays on Saturday. There's been too much hype for him not to, unless his leg is broken.

EDIT: Singh and Molinaro clarify that he's working out on his own, but outside with the team.

Well it certainly was easier to sell tickets for a decent price for this game than other this season so far. This is the one game I can not be at, down south for work in some sweet Alabama heat.

Is Chung still injured? Still think he’s looked better at right back than Kosi, not that either should be starting.

My guess is that he is done playing for us, however.

We shall see. I suspect these are family health issues that will provide a continual distraction, forcing him to underperform.

The first goal against Seattle, where he was beaten on the touch line, was defending that wouldn’t have been acceptable in high school, let alone for a professional.

From what Molinaro said, Salcedo’s wife has been in Mexico since recently giving birth, and he’s been in Toronto, alone. Plus Bob made mention of Salcedo being a ‘family man’ in a recent presser.

Oh yeah he is gone for sure. I just mean it takes some comitment to fly back and forth weekly (for 2 weeks so far anyway). Most players in his position would go there and stay there until the deal was done no matter how short the team might be. As for his play, yeah it wasn't great last weekend and I don't expect it will be this weekend when adding in extra travel, stress. etc.

Not defending him in any way but the whole back line was suspect on that one right from when the player received the diagonal ball until the goal. Each one of them on the backline had an opportunity to break up that play if I recall.

Agreed, it was a comedy of errors leading to it.

From the long ball by the Seattle keeper that someone on Seatttle easily beat Thompsopn to flick it on...to Salecdo getting torched and committing when he sould have jockeyed...to then no help from anyone else (no idea where Oneil and Mavinga were) to then Petrasso just letting his man get in front and tap it in....a team breakdown.

The second Seattle goal was similar off a long free kick that JMR? let his man control it and off Seattle went in one or two passes slicing up the entire d....

I think the only one not culpable on that play was Westburgh, nothing he could do from that close...he had to shut down the Seattle winger from shooting...but then the pass came in for an easy tap in.....nothing he could do there.

I think it'll be O'Neill at RCB, JMR at RB and Thompson in midfield. Would rather Priso start but Kosi looks like one of BB's favourites and midfield is his natural and better position

Let’s hope so. I would have a bad taste in my mouth about this if a lot of regular people (which I’m sure there are) are feeling hard done by.

Let’s call a spade a spade here. LI’s injury has been around for about a month, the club could have been a lot more up front with people. Instead, they just decided to jam their hand into everyone’s pockets and take what they could.

This comment is very fair.
Particularly, as I, like many others, saw with our eyes, the organization highlight his 'debut' .
I noted it during several half-time intermissions of prior games on the stadium's j-tron.

In Toronto (pop = 4.5 million?) the real football supporters number for the local team is at best equal with the real football supporters number from any European, Central or South American town with a population of about 250,000, which have a 1st or 2nd division team.
It is sad, and I don't know how many more decades will need to pass until the situation will change in better.

PS: of course is the same (or worse) situation in the whole Canada and the USA, if we look at the different MLS markets.

The definition of real football fan in a European or Central or South American town is of support to the local team.

That is not true in Toronto for most real football fans because they did not grow up here, with a team.

It doesn't make those people less of a football fan.

All this is changing though.

Our average attendance is 23k. Every section is more then half full. People in this town want to go out to this sport & see this team in that stadium. They enjoy themselves there.


For those who only see the games on TV, you can't spot the amount of people enjoying themselves after a game - its a VERY young crowd still and the amount of grumpy "dang we lost" people is waaaaay less then what online discussions would indicate.


It is REALLY hard to stand in the south surrounded by people from all over the GTA who come from all over the world who bring their kids to the south & not think this game is growing in this town.


On another note, if our definition of "support = being blindingly upset after a loss", that's not the Toronto way - we support the team and wish they would win but by and large reject the idea of "losing = being grumpy". I think that is way healthier, to be honest, especially in these covid days.

buying season seats to TFC is a mugs game
you can buy tickets at half the cost of season seats price a day before the game

Except if TFC advances in the playoffs. People were paying thousands of dollars a ticket to scalpers to be there for the MLS Cup final. But if you don't mind watching the playoffs on TV and just want to watch a few regular season games live I'd tend to agree.

Would be surprised if BMO field requires functional Rogers wifi to operate everything like the SkyDome does.

But if it is down, possible issues - the handheld scanners for tickets & taking any payments.

Crazy to me that Rogers has been down for this long.

Auzzy
07-08-2022, 07:32 PM
Even bigger issue I see, if Rogers isn't fully working again tomorrow:

Many people just show their tickets live from the app on their phone, which requires Internet access. Anyone on Rogers will be SOOL if they're still down tomorrow. The problem is not just with the scanners, but that many people won't be able to show their tickets. Otherwise they could theoretically just eyeball the ticket on your phone w/o the scanners. There's not going to be that much demand for TFC vs San Jose w/o Insigne, that a ton of people would go to the lengths of having a reasonable fake electronic ticket on their phone. (That's different for a sold-out indoor Weeknd concert.)

If you haven't already: get your tickets into your Google Pay or your Apple Pay on your phone, wherever you have Internet. Reduce the potential hassle tomorrow. I just set up and used Google Pay for the first time, and transferred the tickets to it, using my Internet at work. Google Pay also wanted me to add my credit card, which I tried. But it failed in the last step, of course because Rogers is down. (Problem is perhaps either the connection to CIBC, or to some other payment provider that is involved with this and is dependent on Rogers.)

I'm happy though, because my TFC tickets still appear in Google Pay and they work, w/o me having to add a payment card -- which I really didn't want to anyway.

No way that's happening if that's the case. If we lose tonight, we drop even below a single point a game average after 19 games. Sitting on 18 points after 18 games. Horrific. We could be dead last in the East after this weekend.

He probably looks at how they're likely to be used during the rest of the season and figures Petrasso is the late sub, because of his defensive qualities. SO he'll play high on the left more often than Jayden.

As they need him to continue to learn, putting him in occasional other roles, like this one, lets him concentrate in a game environment on pressing, marking, tackling. Plus, San Jose is quick in the middle.
Just a guess.

Not surprised by Criscito's start, though, he's always been a high-IQ player. But even when he was arguably Italy's best left-back, he wasn't very athletic. Now at 35, his lack of pace and engine is obvious. Zero recovery speed.

A few weeks ago he was playing RM, where he should be. He's natural there. I feel like at RB he's always thinking should I be here, is this the right move. So even on simple plays he's probably always partially distracted wondering if he's where he should be.

Why. Is. Bradley. On. Free. Kicks.
I can't remember too many fruitful deliveries from him.

Kerr put it that work. 200% the best of the kids this season.

Kerr > Akinola > the rest? Petrasso special mention for that magical first couple months.

No Petrasso...

No Petrasso, no Mimmo, I don't want to see anyone else on FKs, sounds about right.

Petrasso has made himself the backup LB, for sure.

Very possibly Achara's last touch of the season, good god man that is awful

If I was more dramatic, I'd blow my brains out. Why the fuck is Achara on this team?

Snakebit there. Just poor luck that Achara's pass caught the guy's heel.

Achara decision there was about as good as his decision to be paid in bitcoin

He had options and was too slow, you can't give the ball away there. Awful.

Agreed. That was really more bad luck than anything else.

Everyone calm down on Achara.

Bradley taking the corner, so it was going nowhere. He's a terrible set piece taker. Not sure why he ever takes them.

Burned on that one by one unfortunate pass.

The kids just don't have the decision-making. Neither do the CBs.

Another awful result.....2023 can’t come soon enough....other than a game in Vancouver in a few weeks, this is a lot of practice games to play for the remainder of this season, until meaningful MLS regular season games start in about 7-8 months.

Achara had a simple sideways pass to Osorio right beside him but he tried to play Jimenez away through the guy marking him. He lost us the game.

I told myself I'd be happy with a point, so I will pretend to be happy. Being up 2-1 is a tough pill to swallow though.

Bad things for 2022

Yes, the season is over. It's like 2015 all over again - rebuilding, bringing in good new guys to centre the team around.

So hopefully we'll make MLS Cup next year ;)

We just MUST win the Can Champ this year.

Those lamenting the loss of an international roster spot in the MAK trade can take solace that a new spot will open after Achara is released.

when we were down 1-0, a point was ok. Seeing the potential, though, we once away threw away two points because of... wait for it,

​bad. decision. making.
