(sorry for the edit og!)
Orlando has a good offense, but defense is a bit shaky at times. Vanney will probably play a lot of reserves in a flat 4-4-2. I'll say they tie 1-1 or 0-0.
3-1 TFC.
TFC goals - Seba 2, Johnson 1
Orlando - Penalty goal by Kaka.
I'm ready for a Seba goal scoring revival. I just hope he is, too.
Got a long way to go for that golden boot again. Villa at 11.
This will be a tight, ugly one I think. I agree with the early draw predictions. I say 1-1 with a goal by a defender.
And hard to not see Bradley playing. Vanney will probably say for him to rest or be off the bench but Bradley being Bradley, I'm sure he'll battle that out until he wins and starts.
Sadly I think Bradley will still be with the US team playing in the 3rd place Copa America game....Quote:

No one would leave their National team with a game still to be played.Quote:

Counterattack through the middle with Larin and Batista. Still way to reliant upon Kaka who may not play. I'm thinking Perquis and Zavs for this game - give Moor a night off. Their defence is better and Bendik is having a career year (still not as good as Irwin).Quote:

Lots of last minute heroics and disappointments. Don't turn off the game early cause something likely to happen late.
Who is going to play RB? Hagglund? Will Bloom make an appearance? Bring up Wesley Charpie?
Maybe Josh Williams.Quote:

We play Gio as a loan forwards instead of a floating AM with a forward in front much of the time.
Vanney hasn't shown any killer instinct to put games away all year.. either because we sold all our pieces or poor coaching.. either way that is on him and bez
Well we did dump a lot of our offensive pieces and they weren't replaced with vets. The fact that we are middling along with this many kids in the line up says something about Vanney's tactics. Switching up the roster doesn't throw us into complete disarray like usual and that goes down to preparation and a system that works. The blame for this set up should go to Manning. He was the one that laid out the goals against limit and the road trip point total and that lead to what we're playing now. To win, this is better. If we had all our roster together at the same time it would be better but the need for a decent crossing wide player looms large. If we get that then maybe we're talking but with what we have and how we're playing, one goal wins are what it's all about.Quote:

Browse the "Vanney Deathwatch" thread, then look at who started it and then get back to me.Quote:

Anybody seen pics on social media of who is down there? Cause this team is flying straight to Vancouver tomorrow morning and if they are not down there, who knows what is going on.
Between the CCL matches as well as our home match against LAG, I would say that we've been in decent form.
Not mind blowing, but we have been doing all the little/simple things right.
Would love to see them steal all 3 points, but a tie will do.

Maybe some of them will go to Vancouver on their own, and join them there?
The @BacardiCanada Starting XI: Irwin; Morrow, Moor, Williams, Hagglund; Cheyrou, Osorio, Johnson, Endoh; Giovinco, Hamilton.
Bench: Bono, Bloom, Zavaleta, Delgado, Chapman, Babouli
Looks like Hagglund at RB, which makes no sense with Bloom available.
anyone found a stream for this game?
It makes good sense because Bloomy hasn't played for 3 months.Quote:
