Yup, let's revisit in a few months. I wish this team will make us proud this season!
Yes, we should've been further ahead by now not only in the standings, but in the way we approach games and overall performance. I have yet to see a game when we truly dominate and dictate the play....
I did provide plenty of arguments already:
I'm definitely happy we're top of East right now, but the way I see things, that's not sustainable and I don't see us going very deep into playoffs.
I honestly hope I'm wrong...
I don't disagree with you, Vanney is not much worse/better than any of the current MLS coaches (except for Arena maybe). That's why I'm saying we should start looking beyond MLS. It's not gonna...
Vanney also benefited from having at his disposal the best TFC roster ever, possibly the best in MLS right now. I would bring up again the Corolla commuter driving a Ferrari analogy...
No, that's not a problem in itself, the problem is our current coach inability to take this team to the next level.
Things are changing, there's a first for everything. We can't always refer to the past as a template. A few years ago nobody thought a Giovinco calibre player would come to MLS at 28, and yet he's...
I'm not saying it will be easy, but it wasn't easy to convince Defoe and Giovinco either. Bez & Manning better get to work and find somebody that's not only a good manager but also a good fit for...
Everyone has his price. For $2-3 million/per season you could get a great manager from Europe. It's not gonna be Mourinho, but you don't need Mourinho...
My 2c
Although I agree with the fact that Vanney improved significantly since last year, I still think his tactical prowess and ability to read a game and adjust are average at best.
His game...
Agreed 100%, my thoughts exactly. Vanney never displayed any tactics prowess, the whole game plan is Bradley destroying the opponent's attacks and then the ball needs to get in the general direction...
I think the main reason we showed a better defense in the away games is Bradley, or his new role in front of the back four. He definitely absorbed a lot of pressure and allowed the defenders to keep...
