Actually Herdman had an option to go to Vancouver. Manning does get some credit for getting him to choose TFC over a less disfunctional club.
Early days for sure, but how long has it been since TFC was second in the East?
7 points in 3 games. I feel a million times better about TFC this year.
For sure
For sure. Stefan Frei ultimately became one of the best in MLS, but he wasn't that yet when he was with the Reds.
"Turf teams" have a home familiarity advantage with their pitch, it's weird bounces, etc.
No, a place hasn't been chosen yet. There's research being done. It seems like few places in Liberty Village want to go out of their way to accommodate a football supporters group.
Hockey and...
All of the places that used to cater to us are either gone or changed.
If there isn't baseball on, you could try the Left Field Brewery. They might change a screen for you.
Never thought we'd ever feel like we're missing the regular MLS refs, as poor as some of them are. The replacement refs are even worse.

They're trying it out in "lower level leagues" but not D1 according to ESPN. I wonder if the USL will trial it?
It's really trying to fix a problem with referees who are too cowardly to give real...
This is pretty high praise. He has "great maturity," is tall, one of the "great hopes for Canada," a "CB with strong potential," "defensively was one of the best defenders in MLS Next Pro..."
MLSE has been leaderless for two years, which probably explains a whole lot.
A reminder that roster discussions are in a different thread.

As of December 12, the renovations are going forward.
Big O is under repairs this spring, I believe, so unlikely.

Build the team around Jonathan Osorio, Latif Blessing & Sean Johnson? Apparently what MLS Insider thinks.
