Assuming Destro (or someone similar) joins, we should have forward depth we've sorely missed the past few years. There were far too many times that we ended up throwing Mullins/Dwyer out there trying...

Michael Singh tweeted out a week or two ago that TFC offered Franklin a first team contract, but it seems he turned it down.

Tom Bogert reported earlier today that we're still working on an excit, but nothing close.

So there's another option for DP striker/winger come July...

He would need to play 70%+ of Canada's minutes to auto qualify. Would be tough for him...

If we're looking just at free agents this year, Belotti is clearly top 5. Transfermarkt has him as the 4th highest valued free agent forward. Sometimes you just take the best player available and...

Could be a 3+3 contract or something and we're just hoping that any buying club would just pay up a bit extra to avoid taking it to arbitration or challenging it.

JMR can't even move to another country yet, so what's the harm in asking for the moon here. If he has a great season, TFC can raise the price even more. If he struggles, we can negotiate down to a...

Priso's been playing, he just hasn't been starting. He came on for the second half against Houston. https://twitter.com/TorontoFC/status/1494024913165897734

I watched the second half of Genoa’s game today. They are awful. Criscito didn’t play - I assume he’s still out injured. Destro made some good runs and was in good positions, but the rest of the team...

Beezer had a little bit about him here: https://torontosun.com/sports/soccer/mls/toronto-fc/reds-post-1-1-draw-in-final-pre-season-match-as-mbongue-scores-in-89th-minute
Also a little in here from...

Sorry should have said mostly. I’m 2020/21 it was 18 at CB, 5 at LB/LM. Just a big difference between the other source.

Interesting. Transfer market has him playing CB almost exclusively this season. Has anyone here actually watched any of his games this season and can confirm where he’s playing?

You’re probably right. In my mind I’ve been thinking we’d play with a back 3 to shore up the defence and since Bob used it sometimes in LA. But I don’t think we’ve seen it used in preseason at all.

He hasn't played LB consistently since 2019/20. I think the most likely option is he plays on the left side of a back 3 or they rotate Criscito, Mavinga and Solcedo. Mavinga and Criscito have had...

Quiet game from him so far - even against a weak Barca, they are still controlling play so well. Insigne is putting in good work defensively and making smart runs. He doesn't need the ball to be...

Apparently we've signed Kadin Chung. I like the move although he did not look good in allowing that goal against Houston just now.

Salcedo should be able to take over some of the playmaking ability from the back. He seems quite capable of spraying long passes up the field. That should hopefully take the playmaking weight off of...

We picked up Jozy’s 2023 option after the Armas fiasco… I don’t really understand why

From the NER release, it says we will remain responsible for a portion of his salary. Doesn’t impact the salary budget, but I imagine part of the delay in exercising the buyout was to have Jozy give...

Confirmation that TFC used the buyout on Jozy

I think that means as long as Santos is picking up his salary, we won’t have any hit against our salary budget.

A team having a tight relationship with a specific agent isn’t necessarily a bad thing. Wolves and Jorge Mendes comes to mind as an example where it’s worked out quite well for Wolves. A significant...

Carlos Salcedo posted a few Instagram photos today. On the one where he's talking to Michael Bradley, you can see Auro in the background. Location is tagged to Austin, so maybe Auro isn't leaving?

He trialed with Vancouver, but they decided not to sign him. Apparently roster compliance issues, even though he did well in training camp....
