Come back soon, Pozo! And we need you Soteldo!
A fluke tying goal against Vancouver or we easily could be 0-7 - we aren’t beating Columbus, or NYC or Orlando on the road either (barring a fluke penalty or red card) - we will see what this team looks like on June 19th and call it a 7 game write off to start the year (maybe we have 3 or 4 points after 7 games) and we then chase points the rest of the year to try to squeak into the playoffs - trying to pull a 2019 TFC kind of thing (or as its normally known - “pulling a Seattle”).....
A healthy lineup with Kemar, Poz, Oso, Jozy (?!), Soteldo (full time), Westberg, looks like it could be a very good team; this incarnation of TFC these past few games simply is not a good team for many, many reasons.
Exactly. Aparently only a brilliant one on one play from a forward since there is absolutely no coherent plan for keeping the ball. Its one thing to say Liverpool or Lille play a pressing style but they have players who can do that and the minute injuries krept in to Anfield even the mighty Liverpool struggled. We're like a Sunday league squad trying to be RB Leipzig.Quote:

Good to see Mark slowly walking off the pitch down 2 goals after the game of his life.
Delgado has a little Michael Bradley in him that he thinks he should play 90 minutes every game. It is a good quality. Except when you are Michael Bradley and everyone is scared to death of you for some reason.
so far not a fan of this style - it only looked good against club leon. true we have good players to come but the fact remains that you cannot play a high press with an aging core and slow back 4
The thing that i find the scariest is that we are jogging and they are running. This is not high pressure football.
penny for yeffe's thoughts
The problem is that Jozy will never be healthy, and without a dangerous striker, no team can be dominant.Quote:

Probably considering handing in a transfer request after the game after seeing the style of soccer we are playing.Quote:

Okay, completely agree. But when playing like this, it sort of draws into question whether we can even be competitive, forget dominant.Quote:

Did we have a game this bad last year? I don’t care about the final score
we really poured it on them once they went down 2 and started defending hey?
Playing a crappy style versus a team who has perfected that crappy style. Guess it is a recipe for disaster.
Poor lineup choices, poor organization. Tactically limited, underprepared. He didn’t even push them up to press high when we went down two.
Cant see it. Maybe I was premature dumping on him in week two, but nothing since has changed my mind. He’s Mo/Nelsen round three. (Mariner was so bad he doesn’t even make that company).
Thats how it looks to me.Quote:

Obviously it is too early to start talking about firing Armas, but if we really are a "big team", how long do we give him if the poor results continue?
We looked completely disinterested. This is extremely troubling.
Well the 5-0 Philly drubbing was bad, but the attack was way more cohesive. This is just boring and shambolic.Quote:
