    The defensive issues are not just on the back 4. Midfield do not provide enough cover, and goalkeeping is also suspect.

    Think it was a mistake going into the season with Caldwell as a stater in...

    Part of the thing with past coaches that have done better defensively is they did not do it finding a balance between attack and defense. It was pack the defense and hope for the best in attack.

    Another 15 points would have made us supporters shield winners by 4 points. I just don't see us at that level.

    That said - another 5 points would have seen us in 3rd (Supporters Shield) & 2nd in...

    If Vanney goes - we should hire Ray Hudson. Has MLS experience, won the supporters shield, and most importantly would make TFC interviews highly entertaining. Sounds like something out of "the...

    NYRB did it as well. Dead last in the East in 2009, first in the East in 2010.

    If rumors of Bradley's influence are true, then Vanney is in a tough spot. His hands are tied there.

    The coaches power should be absolute. As soon as it's not, he is screwed.

    I hate to harp on the point, but Jozy and Gio had a lot to do with those points as well, not Vanney's coaching.

    Do you attribute that to Vanney's ability as a coach or two of our DP's snatching points for us? Big difference. With the exception of the Vancouver game - it's the latter IMHO
