    Sticky: That’s fair, especially last game. But my point...

    That’s fair, especially last game. But my point would be look at the amount of time this team is defending over 90 minutes. I bet if we controlled for that (essentially turning the stat into xG given...

    They defend hard. The last ditch tackles and effort to track back on defence have been palatable. It is very fair to say we’ve outperformed but I still stand by the fact the xG worship in soccer is...

    For our TFC HG guys: Akinola and Thompson, primarily. JMR should be sent back to TFC2 or loaned out to the USL.

    Franklin better than the above and actually tries but I don’t know if he’s quite...

    They botched a number of corners and set pieces between the two of them. If I was Herdman I’d tell them time to put the ball into the box more often or lose their set piece privileges.
  5. There was always a chance we came back down to...

    There was always a chance we came back down to earth. With the number of absences from the squad and all the other oddities about this game, not entirely surprised.

    Lot of players on this team (we...

    That red from Edwards was extremely dubious (to say the least). But Mtl imploded and Sirois had the worst game of his life, letting in a weak, near-post goal from a bad angle and letting the wind...

    Agreed. Second team seems to be able to strike the balance between design and simplicity, without overthinking it. Why does the first...

    I think what you are describing is probably one of the first things they’ve looked at. I wonder if it has something to do with North-South travel and playing in one climate but training in another....

    Side note, I suppose this means Kerr is back? That’s a positive at least
  10. Is there a silver lining here in that if there...

    Is there a silver lining here in that if there was ever an easy field to park-the-bus and force the other team to beat you, this monstrosity in the outfield is it?

    They should hire an outside...
  11. Arrrg that’s awful. Welp, we’re screwed.

    Arrrg that’s awful. Welp, we’re screwed.
  12. Sticky: I can’t disagree with any of this. I would note...

    I can’t disagree with any of this. I would note though, through the first few games I have seen guys sprint back on the counter like their life depends on it. They’ve made some big plays and saved us...

    Would the league ever clear that? He did what was right for his career in strong arming Orlando but I doubt MLS would ever let him back in.

    My other concern is that guy perpetually shows up out of...

    I hope we can do better. Motivation and consistency have only gone downwards as his career progressed. We need a starting striker who we know can fill the net, not a “kinda, sorta, maybe” project.

    I think it speaks to the disjointed actions and state of desperation the team was in last year plus JH’s lack of experience. Whatever, signings have been better this year so we can be thankful for...

    I think Coello is in a rough patch as opposed to totally defunct. Sure, if we had a functional roster he’d probably not be starting but I think it’s fair to say he’d at least be coming off the bench.
  18. Herdman is very cryptic and sometimes...

    Herdman is very cryptic and sometimes intentionally misleading about lineups just to play head games with opposing managers. Suspect we will see plenty of this.
  19. Sticky: The LAFC thing, in retrospect, was a huge red...

    The LAFC thing, in retrospect, was a huge red flag. An ambitious club with a big budget on the incline was either content to let him walk (or for all we know, told him his services weren’t needed)....

    They deserve this. People respond to sports broadcasts when they are honest and candid. The league (and US Soccer generally) is stuck in a state of self doubt. They have to realize people are saying...

    Other worst decisions ever:

    Hiring him in the first place
    Not firing him sooner
  22. Sticky: You know, we did totally blow it with Shaffelburg...

    You know, we did totally blow it with Shaffelburg but I feel Ike he’s in the right place. That flowing mullet and Nashville just go together so well.

    He’s very much cementing his cult hero status...

    In fairness, while we scooped some road points early last year, they never played like this. Watching guys hustle to track back when the other team is countering, making last ditch tackles, coming...

    Felt a lot more natural than fullback, that’s for sure.

    We should be talking about Gomis though. That was a wildly solid debut for a 21 year old who has bounced around in recent years trying to...
  25. Sticky: I thought he showed pretty high potential at...

    I thought he showed pretty high potential at times. But it’s consistently hitting high form and improving that makes you a great footballer. He doesn’t have the requisites to stay at the top. Rather,...
