I'm on the fence for this change. For what it's worth, Liga MX does 8 team playoffs in about 3 weeks. This past Apertura was 19 days long.
2 leg quarter finals, 2 leg semi finals and 2 leg finals....
We are exactly 8 points behind 6th place Orlando with a game in hand on them. Also have games in hand over Philly, Chicago and Montreal.
If the team can just get over this first hump In this...
My only reservation about this debate is that Mavinga came in with Morrow, Moor, Zavaleta and Bradley around him for a good run of games in a set formation the whole team was comfortable with, with...
Agreed. We have to take out Atlanta and NYCFC eventually. The hope is a top 4 finish.
No away stadium will faze this team after playing at El Volcan, Azteca and Akron. None at all.
Might have a point, his minutes really dried up as the season went on and Vanney seemed upset a few times when Raheem came on. Especially in that Columbus away playoff game.
Agreed, for about 60 minutes with that crazy line up we ran Chicago off the field, for the most part. Philly isn't that much better than Chicago too.
With everyone fully rested and Vazquez having...
Match fitness really. I think if he was 100% ready he would have started against Chicago
Wonder how far along is Zavaleta and Hernandez is. Getting at least one of them match fit would be huge. Along with Morrow. Would be really confident with 2 out of the 3.
FWIW, lost in all of the ups and downs of this tournament is the fact that we do get a small consolation prize in that Champeons Cup in September. Won't feel the same but another chance to silence...
I'd agree with you but unlike Europe, we don't need a top 4 finish, technically we can finish top 4 and still not qualify!
Winning those two Canadian Championship series is all it takes to...
Perspective would be the word.
Five years ago we we're hoping that Luke Moore and Jermaine Defoe could win a game against DC United (no offence lol)
Now we are hurt/fuming over losing on...
I got the invite at about 11:30 this morning.
Will be there.
Nervously optimistic.
If it's any MLS team that has the talent and heart to pull it out, it has to be Toronto. Every player seems relaxed in all these interviews and social media posts.
My dad...
Hmmm, goats? :reddevil:
Missed Vazquez the most last night.
We just got shocked. The whole talk was probably to bring the game to them, they're gonna sit back, etc. The media really played that up and it seemed like...
Gonna get wacky with this...
4-2-3-1
Irwin
Kubel (TFC2) - Hernandez - Zavaleta - Bjornethun (TFC2)
Bradley - Fraser
Hasler - Aketxe - Chapman
Hamilton
Sucks, exactly the reason that I can't attend. Wish it was a Saturday game. :(
Could be non related but what does that mean for Aketxe. It sounded like we brought him in to be an understudy for Vazquez, but does this now mean he'll be that for two season? Would he want to be...
I'm probably on the same bus! Leaving Scarborough at 9 am
If we do go with the 5 man midfield, I'm all for Delgado IMO.
We need a midfield "8" besides Bradley to help with the defense and move the ball into the offensive players. Delgado is a much better...
FWIW, found an actual CONCACAF Club ranking. Some questionable rankings.
Toronto is highest MLS based team at 17, Seattle highest US based team at 22.
...
I mentioned it before, I think I saw that Auro and Aketxe can play wings, as well as Seba (not his preferred position). I remember Vanney talking about not having wingers so bringing those guys means...
Might have been asked already, but does anyone know if they'll be offering the star add on for those who bought the red jersey last year?
Thanks
Yes Vanney is versatile, correct me if I'm wrong but I feel at some point this season, TFC might even go 4-3-3 with the new options. Auro and Aketxe can play as wingers or inverted wingers, Jozy can...
