    Indeed, that was it. And yeah, twice within a few minutes in the first half and beautifully too before we were overrun.
  2. Sticky: Herdman has referred to “phases” a couple of...

    Herdman has referred to “phases” a couple of times… seems we’re still in an evaluation phase - who to keep and who to let go. Sounds like a 2 year plan or so.
  3. Sticky: Playoffs would be a surprise esp given the...

    Playoffs would be a surprise esp given the strength of the east this season. We haven’t really looked good yet… that this has its excitements says a lot about how bad we were last season.
  4. I think Richie would have really helped but wide...

    I think Richie would have really helped but wide speed on that field… not sure if that’s ever an answer. Football on a warped postage stamp is strange football. Even so, we might have got a point out...
  5. Yeah, it was always likely to be a couple of...

    Yeah, it was always likely to be a couple of years.

    I see what you mean about Yankee Stadium… except that nowhere else is like it (and it’s probably illegally undersized). NYC is built to play...
  6. Sticky: Thanks for the tip.

    Thanks for the tip.
  7. Sticky: A lot of roster questions everywhere… and that’s...

    A lot of roster questions everywhere… and that’s to be expected.

    We have a lot of midfield players who probably are not much suited to playing anywhere else (Oso and Longstaff come to mind based...
  8. That became ugly in a befuddled kind of way…...

    That became ugly in a befuddled kind of way… actually quite a few ways.

    Not to mention that we don’t have the roster for more than one or two injuries, probably. Richie is a big one. Except maybe...
  9. Didn’t quite understand why Prince was subbed...

    Didn’t quite understand why Prince was subbed out… but man, Ayo, we really need a striker!
  10. Sounds right.

    Sounds right.
  11. Bernie and JMR look like they must be wingbacks....

    Bernie and JMR look like they must be wingbacks. Very interesting to see how Coello, Flores and Longstaff line up.
  12. Yeah, it’s the spirit and effort that count most...

    Yeah, it’s the spirit and effort that count most at the moment. And Yankee field is so weird anything can happen. At least I’m expecting Herdman to come up with a possibly workable approach to the...

    Herdman pointed out training on turf after returning from the southern U.S. preseason is a physical strain on the players. Then it’s training on turf in a warm bubble before one day in the cold on...
  14. Jesus….

    Jesus….
  15. Longstaff had a beauty of a line breaking pass...

    Longstaff had a beauty of a line breaking pass toward (or into?) the box vs Charlotte. We haven’t seen any of those in quite a while. He’s got the touch and the ‘vision’ it seems. Not sure I’d use...
  16. Should be interesting how Herdman will respond...

    Should be interesting how Herdman will respond with Oso and Flores gone.
    I’m thinking it might be Coelo and Longstaff in a double pivot. Not sure that either of those guys can be Flores but also...

    So far, players called up seem to be:

    Luis Abram (D, Peru)
    Giorgos Giakoumakis (F, Greece)

    and Oso plus Flores for us.
  18. Sticky: Cool.

    Cool.
  19. Sticky: I don’t think that lot will ever favour Canadian...

    I don’t think that lot will ever favour Canadian clubs. As for having played the game: most who have played at the highest level are inarticulate (verbally) and the best players often make for...

    Doyle’s column this week is more interesting on NYC than on us:

    “Here are the postgame remarks of New York City FC midfielder Keaton Parks, as reported by the Blue Balls NYCFC Podcast:
    “I think...
  21. Sticky: From the outside, I’d say this one is on...

    From the outside, I’d say this one is on Hernandez. Acquiring players when there is no manager and no scouting director is risky business especially when they’re very young and from leagues...
  22. A long way to go in everything except the team...

    A long way to go in everything except the team ‘culture’ close to the pitch… which was the first thing desperately needed. We have turned a sharp corner there. I’m going to enjoy Herdman and his...
  23. According to Herdman he would have gone elsewhere...

    According to Herdman he would have gone elsewhere (Portland) if Osorio was no longer totally committed to Toronto. He said he came to work with Osorio as his starting point, captain, etc.
  24. After the subs we were on the front foot,...

    After the subs we were on the front foot, instantly, for the first time. It was also Bernie instead of Franklin (a promising young full back but I haven’t seen him able to effectively get forward in...
