I was literally just about to bring up Leicester as an example of a team that is willing to give up possession, absorb as much as they can defensively and then spring forward as soon as they possibly...

Not sure that they're rose coloured glasses but more of the general consensus from the fans and media. KJ, Molinaro, Larsun, MLSsoccer (doyle), Alejandro Moreno (ESPNFC) etc.

TFC put in a text...

Hah, interesting how much our dislike for people can blind us.

So happy that we have a President that has not only preached stability but is acting upon it now. Love that we are keeping Vanney.. and completely agree with needing to give coaches 3 years, I've...

Pain.

Defense has been an issue for sure. But to fire a guy AGAIN because everything isn't perfect would be completely insane. We are continuously changing our backline and haven't' had stability there...

Yea the whoscored ones just show the average position of the players.. not where the tackles are made.

This is a great write up on the best shot limiting teams in MLS.. I'd love to see what TFC's heat map looks like.

Confirmed. Sack Vanney for Mourinho.

Osorio is no doubt doing better but it's taken him some time to get involved. Here's hoping he continues his solid play and picks up some minutes at the Gold Cup. But let's not go overboard and...

He may complete a lot of passes but he's been disappointing otherwise this year.

Not sure what all these numbers mean but if anyone likes number representations of teams (stats), check out squawka.

@trane I'm starting to think you're the only one left that still thinks Vanney is not capable of managing this team.

An absolutely fantastic performance to win yesterday, shortly after a loss...

I think we just fundamentally differ on how long a manager should be given prior to determining their fate. 24 isn't even 3/4 of a single season. If we're using that as a template to fire coaches...

................ We started the season with SEVEN STRAIGHT ROAD MATCHES... you cannot judge a manager based on such a small sample size that is so heavily skewed against them. I talked about the...

This. The team has been playing great for the last couple months. Giovinco is a stud but the team is doing great overall.

Too early to say I told you so.. over and over and over and over again? Nah.. I told you so. Close this down.

I agree with you. Based on what Nelson's record was at the time I thought it was a terrible move to get rid of him. It was only made worse by bringing in a guy with just as little experience.
...

So basically what some of us have been saying all along? Give him an opportunity to actually figure things out rather than canning him because we have a losing record and have played only 2 homes...

I'm with you, always wanted to ride out Nelson. But now that Vanney's here I'll support giving him enough time to truly justify whether or not he's good enough.

It's funny because they're the...

The same way that people are saying all the blame goes on the coach rather the individual lapses, I don't think you can say that the team is only clicking because of the players they have. Yes the...

I'll add to this.

+ Willingness to change tactics and experiment to get the right fit for the team (not stuck in his ways)
+ Chemistry moving forward (when playing the aggressive way he wants to...

Mighty, you've pretty much gone and done the opposite of what you were crusading for last year. You, like myself kept stating that firing Nelson when they did was a horrible move, espeically to...

Though I don't disagree that someone with experience should be hired next since we've faltered with rookies lately... I still think the major issue is the roster and depth and not Vanney's...

Morrow is clearly left footed, he always seems to prefer to cut back and swing it in with his left (while playing as a RB).
