Bob and Bill have done a hell of a job building a quality team.

Doyle's mastery of the english language far exceeds his soccer knowledge. He is a brilliant writer, but he's not a football tactician.
Anyone else watch Don Garber's interview with TSN last night? He doesn't seem at all interested in expanding the number of DPs, noting not all teams are even using them.

Just gotta say - what an awesome transfer window it's been!
6 new players, 3 Italian internationals and 3 Canadian internationals.
Not a fully finished product yet, but wow, our team is a...
Which makes a lot more sense.
Sometimes betting on yourself has consequences. In life, always take the money.
The 4 year contract was signed in 2019 that appears to last for 5 years?
2020
2021
2022
2023
2024
Can someone explain this to me?
Richie!!!

I'm not sure I agree. MLS just signed a massive new streaming agreement with Apple +. The last TV deal gave MLS $65 million per season ($90 million split with US soccer). Now, they get $250 million...
At the start of the '25 season he will be 33. It would be shocking to me if a player of his quality, who stays at fit as he does, is past it at 33 years old. Italian strikers also age like a fine...
I am ok with Belotti going to Roma. If he is willing to walk away from millions to stay in Italy, we should consider ourselves lucky. We want people who want to be here.
Making the playoffs in...
This is some excellent research! Well done.
Holy smokes - that is something.
TFC rarely acknowledges any interest in a player unless there is a real chance.
Happy Friday everyone!
He would be a very expensive backup at Roma and Valencia has tens of millions in debt.
I have no idea if he's going to come to TFC, but you are 100% right, he is an expensive free agent.

I also dislike being someones last choice, but the transfer situations will be very different. Defoe had multiple teams who wanted him, Sunderland, QPR, etc. willing to pay a transfer fee and match...
This lingering rumour about Belotti... I truly don't know what to make of it.
Sign him up!
Our CBs have been pretty good since Mavinga left the pitch in Chicago. That's not our most pressing area of need.
Kosi is a solid defender, but he can't pass the ball. We need a rightback and...
An optimistic view: The conditions were difficult, but the future is bright!
1. The Italians are nowhere near 100% fit.
2. We played on low-grade turf, making it harder to play our game.
3. We...
Could TFC be the team? Would make a lot of sense if Oso doesn't re-sign.

I hope you are right! I think that's the MLS DP sweet spot.
Based on the training photos released, it looks like Nelson will start in Kaye's place. Perhaps a change in formation?
Soccer fan or not, he did just approve a massive investment in new players. Insigne and Bernardeschi were not cheap.
Clearly Manning has done a good job getting the board of directors into this...
