I swear the homegrowns we bring up that don't have the ultra hype behind them produce more than the guys like Fraser, JMR and Nelson.

Great to see the Shaff immediately redeem himself.
Wow Shaffelburg redeems himself, what a play that was. Beautiful finish by Kosi, and so smart and trusting of Pozuelo to leave it for Kosi who had the better angle.
There's gonna be more goals tonight. The track meet style isn't great for TFC at altitude, they're going to have find a different style in the 2nd half.
Salcedo's injury doesn't look good. Mavinga may get a chance to redeem himself before the end of this game. But too many left-footed CBs?
Its the damn elbow that bends the wrong way you friggin idiot Caldwell. Theres no knee to the ribs. How is this guy the color commentator when he doesn't know what's going on!!! /End my weekly Caldwell complaint
I edited out my "idiot Caldwell" comment because I thought I maybe got it wrong, but yes it was obviously the arm/elbow.Quote:

totalky. You could see it hyper extend in the replay. GrossQuote:

Really nice goal with the off foot by kosi impressive...
Mavinga redemption would be good. He brings something different - pace - and could do well with Salcedo. ButO’Neill has earned it at the moment.
Bono is such an adventure out there.
Bradley tracked very well there to start this phase of play a couple of minutes ago. Edit: Poz too
RSL like the Rapids would be really good if they actually spent any kind of money on their DPs.
This right here is the kind of game Insigne will win for us come July.
Only issue is we already have two players attacking well on the left side. Insigne will obviously be better, but we're more thin on the right side, especially with real wing or fullback play.Quote:

superb cross
mb should have charged, not dance
Poor from McNaughton and O’Neill as they dropped the line a step early allowing Kreilach as an unmarked trailer. Just poor defending there.
if they hold the line a step longer, two RSL players are offside.
Actually, in all honestly that should never, ever be a goal. Overall bad team defence, good game so far but that was awful.
Yep, I would think so or JJ moves to one side to make room for Belotti.Quote:

Alright half. Too tentative by far again in the offensive zone. We need to get more into the box.
Shaffelburg obviously left them too much time to cross, and MacNaughton misjudged the header. But Kosi completely stopped for no reason and left MacNaughton to deal with two RSL players in a very dangerous position.Quote:

how do you defend a perfect cross / bit of aligned stars ?
Yup and he really doesn't take Meram seriously enough, leaves him too much space, lets him walk into the box before confronting him etc.Quote:

I am going to bang on Thompson as a defensive liability until he stops being one - there is nothing I can't stand more then a player letting opposing players get in & just watch the play develop
Did Salcedo just go full Michael Johnson and pull up after getting beat? LOL.
Another Bono kick out for a throw in
