Vanney grew up in the Phoenix area, same as Nick, and played in the same youth club system. I believe Greg still spends off seasons in Arizona.

I don’t have time to look, but Vanney has answered...

Seattle were bigger underdogs against LAFC than we were against Atlanta.

The inevitability of the coronation .... wasn’t that how the narrative went for LAFC before last week?

This isn’t a complicated point. It's about experience in knockout competitions with everything on the line, on a big stage, and not letting the pressure get to you. NYCFC and Atlanta had big players...

Best I can tell, the one flaw we have had all year is conceding late. This cost us something like 15-18 points in the regular season, if we had even half of those points at year end we would have...

It was more than a blip but it was injuries, then poor management of obvious problems (ie letting the DPs roll into 2019 and not being ready when that was a problem)

Neither of those things were...

Underdog, out of gas, of the road... It would have been so easy for Vanney to turtle and play for PKs. That was the percentage play.

The Mullins and Laryea subs were the gamble that won this game.

I thought Montreal played a damn fine road game at the back. They never lost track of the final man in the box. No TFC man got a clean look all night.

It's a bummer, but we have stolen a couple of...

Someone else can find the detail (I couldn’t find it quickly) but Pozo has played 23 games here, missed maybe two, and gone 90 minutes in 18 or 19 of them. Yet Pozo never plays with Gallardo, then,...

This is the first time I have seriously wondered about Vanney. Sitting Pozo was a major waste of a critical resource, and nearly cost us. Vanney needing to do that is evidence of some sort of serious...

Yeah. It's a win, or he's gone. I don’t think it's right btw, I'd wait until year end.

There are lots of managers who go for the dough. Not just Benitez. But they aren’t from England, Spain or Germany.

Giovinco's Saudi club was managed by Jorge Jesus at the time Seba went there....

I do think Vanney is gone by Monday if we don’t win this game.

It's not what I want, but it's what I think will happen.

So explain to me the production of attacking players like Techera and Blas Perez under Robinson.

Serious question. These put downs of Robinson as an EPL throwback weren’t born out by the stats....

It's interesting. Vanney and Robinson have had similar periods in the role. Vanney's regular season W-L record is 89-71 and Carl's was 78-77. Carl did it in the west which was generally tougher and...

Mourinho has made $50-100M the last 7-8 years.

In my opinion - guys like this, there are only maybe 12 jobs in the world he would consider. He will wait for one of those.

Seems to me that the...

I'd do #ManningOut and #CurtisOut at year end, if we don’t heat up here.

The decision re Vanney can belong to the new guy.

The playoff structure does feel like a criticism protection scheme for coaches and star players on high payroll teams that are not doing well *cough*

I love the Dick Dastardly bit (you are showing your age there, stego)

The whole thing is a tour de force

This is great. This steve guy, having called people who weren’t ready to fire Vanney MLSE employees or trolls, and worse... now reformulates the basic point his defenders were making and declares.......

^There is something about Pozo's body language that makes me think something like this is going on.

Pozo looks completely different the last few games, like a guy who is done fighting through it...

Houston have been worse than TFC.

Only 17 points from last 19 games, only 11 points from last 16 games.

It may be time for a change. Sometimes it is. But I think a mob mentality is obscuring an obvious point.

Vanney not playing the new guys (especially Gallardo, who has been here for weeks) is...

It is now pretty obvious that Bez was no talent evaluation genius. Why would he be? How much scouting has he done in his entire life? Who would be the core guys in his networks?

He is an...

I actually did say something along the lines of “are people too entitled?” around 11pm. No way did I call anyone babies, and I am not engaging with this guy anymore.

But thanks. The spirit of what...

I am slowly being persuaded by the criticism, which is weird. I didn’t feel it at all in the moment, but I wasn’t there. So I put it down to people being pissed they paid for B team tickets. Also I...
