For the price of the seats, it better be someone good ! :-)
Mr. Paul,
go off the chart...
Bundesliga...
(Bayern or St. Pauli!!!)
let's see something we don't see a lot of...(english, italian)
I enjoyed Pachuca and Indepediente...let's stay on that theme.
I'll say the opponent comes from either Mexico or CONMEBOL where we'd get a fairly well-known team like Millionarios (sp?) from Colombia or something.
Boca!
I'd love to see more top Argy Bargy or Brazilian teams.
yeah but they have a hell of a hard time selling those types of teams instead of a top Euro club....look at the thousands of empty seats vs Independiente...UNSOLD...Originally Posted by Shaughno

Top Euro club? Like West Ham or Villa?
Maybe they'll get their fucking act together and follow suit with Seattle and whoever else has proper friendlies.
Bayern
Porto
Inter
Chelsea
As much as we want to see those teams, I can't see MLSE ponying up the dosh to bring those type of teams in. My $0.02
The problem is BMO Field is too small to pay for top teams. In Seattle, they can open up the upper bowl.Top Euro club? Like West Ham or Villa?

MLS is a tough, physical league, that emphasizes speed, and features plastic fields, grueling travel, extreme weather, and incompetent refs. - NK Toronto
That's part of the problem yes, but they could always add 'temp seating'.
Seriously though, I think Boca would draw more people than Independiente, Villa, or probably any of our other friendlies.
We could always go to Skydome for a friendly. (duck ...)
Sure, but we have a couple of big gaps coming. There's a 12-day gap from June 6th to June 17th and 14-day gap from June 24th to July 11th. A friendly on/before June 12th or July 4th weekend would keep the team fresh, and still leave them 7 days rest until the next match. Surely a friendly during either one of those breaks would be in our benefit.
Independiente is pretty crap compared to Boca or River. I agree it would probably still be hard to sell those games, but they have way more fans worldwide then Independiente. I would love to see River
Please scrap these USELESS FRIENDLIES DURING MID SEASON!!!
Seconded.
With CCL, MLS, International games, the schedule is packed as is.
I agree that the friendlies don't help during a crowded schedule.
I think the reason things shifted to South American teams last year was to get an idea of the type of football that we'd see if we made it to CONCACAF CL and to also establish contacts in that part of the footballing world. Pablo Vitti is here now because he played in the friendly last year...
+1 fucking one......if any of our players get hurt I wil be pissed!
What about Top Teams from Uzbekistan?
they'd still beat us
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FC_Pakhtakor_Tashkent
you mean like them? if they have support from the IMU anything is possible.
What, no votes for Gulu United? Come on, I bet we could beat them.
^^what d'you know though!?!
I'd like to see someone like FC Twente or PSG or Hertha Berlin
They could do that right?
What about Kaizer Chiefs from South Africa or Gremio??
Any of those would be alright.
Actually, I think a Dutch team would be awesome to watch....maybe poach a player off em'
I'd love to see Gremio.......
Marsielle? Lyon? Sporting?
^^Ya, you can't tell me you can't get a great club from one of the "lower" euro leagues. Or a really big south american team.....you can do it!
CSKA Moscow? Zenit? Tolouse FC.. for the battle of the TFC?
Yeah a Russian team, that would be cool!CSKA Moscow? Zenit? Tolouse FC.. for the battle of the TFC?
My personal fav is Saturn
Penarol!!!!
Besiktas? Galatasaray? Hoffenheim?
BJK!! i'd be into that
who would Deniz cheer for??
What about getting Henrik Larsson to play here... then sign him!
Helsingborg for the win!
