True it's technically 5 points, but let's be honest. NYCFC can't get more than 66 points which is 4 more than what TFC has now. In theory with a tie, NYCFC can win the supporter's shield if they have a superior goal differential. As of now, TFC has a +24 advantage on NYCFC, so it's unlikely they'd win the shield if we were level on points.Quote:

No Seba, no Jozy. no problem. g:D
Awesome win by the Big Red Machine. And kudos to those who flew out to attend the match (Justin g:D).
We are playing on another level to everybody else.
LAG is bad right now, made out of USL hopefuls and a bunch of guys who are shell shocked at how bad its going, coached by somebody who can't deal with a team in crisis & who is isn't going to be there next year.
But watching all the supposedly decent teams today, we are just so much better then all of them.
Haha first post I saw when i opened this thread this morningQuote:

Two DPs missing, and we still totally dominated. Vanney deserves a lot of credit indeed. We have reserves step in and our ball movement is still fluid.
This team is way exceeding my expectations. I'm not complaining!Quote:

Roll on Reds !!
Its that "My fumbling baby has become a highly respected adult'" feeling.
Its so weird!
Wow.
Postulate: As long as Vasquez is on the field, TFC will score 2+ goals. I want to see this hypothesis tested next time Vanney rests VV.
He's on the same kind of level as Seba talent-wise, I think. Another level from MLS, that's for sure. I mean, really, this guy should be playing in a top Euro league.Quote:

In my humble opinion those folks at Barca may know a little bit about the sport in which a bunch of so called footballers are running around kicking a ball.
The Galaxy keeper and a defender doing some nice synchronized dance moves right after TFC's fourth goal:

Has anyone found a torrent for this match? The usual suspects are not working.
I just don't see how he was not effective in Mexico. Is this just an amazing year? Smarts like that dont come and goQuote:

Who knows...
He's alluded to safety concerns for his family while there a couple of times. But that's over the course of this season - I can't remember where I read that to share a link, but I know I've seen it come up more than once.Quote:

A whole slew of TFC players charging forward, with various movements that seem nicely choreographed, totally overwhelming the LA defense and creating huge gaps in defense. They end up with 6 TFC players in LA's box. Too bad Osorio ended up shooting at the keeper.
