Anything less than half a mill for a striker generally = unproven or developing option. It’s higher paid than other positions for obvious reasons of course. At his packet it sort of communicates...

I agree, he definitely has something. That said, I think he has to maybe go through what Osorio went through earlier in his career where they tell him he’s coming off the bench if 30 minutes a...

I can appreciate his body language doesn’t really scream that of leadership. Feels a bit cagey.

Montreal had their home opener last night. So it would appear to me that TFC doesn’t play at home in March because the league demands it, rather we do it because we’re trying to clear out more...

This Osorio hate is pretty unwarranted. He's shoe-horned into a role we all know isn't his best position and also one that nobody else on the team (who is healthy at the moment) would do better at....

Let’s not forget some of his late stage signings included Gregory Van Der Wiel and Ager Aketxe. Two eye wateringly bad and expensive flops. He’s certainly rebounded after but when he walked my...

Johnson’s positioning on the second goal looked kind of whack. He was sliding all the way over to the near post leaving the angle on the far post overly open. Of course you cover near post first but...

Appreciate all the detail and I generally get the impression despite your rationalization in areas, you would share the same opinion as everyone else here that he's certainly more than made enough...

^ I thought this was already the case? (At least from 14 and up).

Are we seriously running pay-for-play? They might as well shut themselves down on those grounds.

The Berna contract was flawed by the time the ink was dry. LI needs a way to balance spacing on the field and the obvious way to do that is have a really fast goal scoring threat on the right side to...

Total side note but has anyone kept track of tfc2 lately? Anyone we should keep our eye out for?

It’s highly annoying, I agree. That said, the board probably wasn’t going to let Manning hire anybody unless they would be cheap and easy to get rid of in the event they clean house. My sneaking...

Is this like when Rob Friend bungled enough goals across the line to be the top scorer in B2? Sort of feels like it watching him play.

Yeah. I’m sure there’s a presentation deck somewhere in the MLSE that outlines TFC’s 10 year plan to move away from supporters and plug in as many corporately paid tickets as they can.

We thought that before the Italians too, don’t forget. I’m not clear on what the budget for this team is but the fact they aren’t using the WC to majorly re-do the stadium feels like a bit of a tell.

^ Let’s be honest, the new guy just got in his seat and TFC management are probably just bracing to see if they’ll be part of the go-forward plans or quickly disposed of.

I doubt they come...

Yeah, I’m not terribly impressed either or sympathetic to giving someone with no prior experience in the big seat an opportunity to get his training wheels.

If the CBA changes proposed are implemented (see other thread) who do you buy out? Akinola is the obvious candidate by some distance.

Something should probably be done with Rosted too.

I’ve...

I agree. I look at the good ones or even the “average” ones in this league. They all might go through a drought here and there but they also have streaks where they snap up half chances and fill up...

We really (really) need to address the striker issue head-on and find an alternative that comes without caveats or half measures. There is no point of another Sapong, Owusu, etc… If that’s all our...

USL debuted yesterday on CBS. I hope they are successful with this. MLS could certainly use the competition.

Yeah, Flores is not particularly great on the ball, for sure. Between him and the odd Coello giveaway midfield is really nerve racking at times.

It just really puts pressure on guys in other...

With this team, I think it’s a roster building story first and a coaching story second.

There’s only so much Herdman can do with this group. Of course he’s not been perfect but I’d put whatever...

Didn’t get to watch tonight but just saw the box score. Not going to get hung up on it. Either way we’re going to get something we want this season. A return to some moderate form of success or...

I’d prefer if we left something in reserve. Our subs bench is generally underwhelming so best to add some firepower where we can.
