Is it harsh to call it strike one against Hernandez?
I don't think it is, but others might think so...
I’m not saying that he’s not. More so that his reluctance to sign past ‘23 suggests that he still believes he might be able to hop back across the pond.
This also assumes that the only deal he...
The only reason you add Jr with the deal he got (essentially 2 months) is to try winning now. He won't be there in '24.
Makes no sense for us to have opened those conversations.
I think the reason we're hearing more noise re: Osorio is really quite simple.
For a team with as many holes as TFC, it seems unfathomable that we could possibly be right up to the cap, yet here...
You have to be careful here, Molinaro isn't the one saying these things. As you say, it is framed as "According to sources...". All he is doing is reporting on what he has been told. No harm no foul...
If you are looking to attend a match, I hear that TFC Republic offers 25% off tickets. IYKYK.
Honestly I was vehemently opposed to a potential return of Seba before now, but after watching most of the roster check out and give up this season I’m not sure I could criticize a player that is...

This would be a very shrewd move if they could make it happen.
This is a crapshoot at best.
If it works out, Hernandez looks like a genius.
If it doesn’t, few will be surprised.
At this point, they might as well do that, and quite frankly it might be the smartest option to cast a wider net and make sure we hire the right person for ‘24.
If that's the case I think they are dreaming, in large part because:
Edit: yeah they are dreaming. MTL is 7pts AND 2 games up on us for the last spot. Every team ahead of us safe NYC has at...
Folks, this deal is all about Leagues Cup. If you care about that, then this is a good deal. If you are looking at this deal for 2024, it's crap.
It's pretty binary in that sense.
Honestly disappointed not to see a buy clause in there. I suppose they are trying to compete in Leagues Cup and I get that, but I do wish the moves started skewing to 2024 at this point.
Is it me, or does the Athletic have a bone to pick with TFC FO. They are pulling no punches lately for a publication that is synonymous with puff pieces.
My other big takeaway from the article was...
Keeping in mind our social guy, Giacometti, is presumably done with the club as of today so wouldn’t be surprised if the comms team is also a shitshow along with the rest of it.
All the positives re:MAK above are valid
BUT
I would rather the 1.3M in GAM and Priso given where we are against the cap
Not to throw gas on your fire, but that $85444 equated to 0 cap hit as he is homegrown. The MAK trade is inarguably looking worse by the game. Priso would likely be getting minutes on this team if he...
Sure it’s warranted. For one he’s making DP money regardless of the circumstance. Secondly, taking this stance puts a lot of trust in the FO. For all we know he could remain our 3rd DP through 2023....
I don’t think that has been his main issue. There’s a fitness and/or motivation problem with Oso this season which I do not quite understand myself. If you take a look back at some of the goals we’ve...
I had MacNaughton penciled in as a solid depth piece for the year, but I have to say that I agree with this.
TBF I think it's important to define the line between outright scouting and BB connections (surely Rosted, for example).
EDIT: jloome quicker than me on the trigger
I don't think Cristian Gutierrez is a name you bring in to divert attention...
This is an interesting move to say the least. Curious as to why the 'Caps let him go.
STL was wise and frankly fortunate to have some of their bigger pieces, DPs included, playing for STL2 last season so there's more gel there than the average expansion team.
A point on the cap...
I don’t think so. Before the season I sat on the fence, but two games in I think it’s a flat no now. Game over game continuity is an asset in this league and I’m not sure the temporary upgrade in...
