Super subs? Super strategy! Long live the squad.
Crazy shit no doubt.

Toronto FC Reserve squad?
I predict we get zero shots with that starting line-up.
At least Gargan is starting.
This is crazy talk!
RSL is going to see that starting lineup and feel instantly energized.
What are we gonna do, wait until they score before we throw out the horses?
Did Preki see how well this worked for Sigi and Seattle last week?
This better not blow up in Preki's face. He'll either be a hero or a goat.
From Twitter: LukeWileman #torontofc subs: White, De Rosario, de Guzman, Peterson, Cronin, Gala, Conway.

But really, hope he is good to go and keeps his head on straight. One thing for sure he and Saric are going to lay some hurt.
No Dero? Barrett alone upfront? We won't be scoring tonight ...
wtf why is Nene starting over Cronin?!?!

Third game in seven days, man. My guess is DeRo and JDG come on as super-subs at some point, but you can't ask them to play 90 minutes tonight, at altitude.

He's gonna stop up behind the ball in a 4-5-1, then bring in Dero and JDG in teh second half, if that lineup isn't just incorrect.
Bizarre, though.
Shakes^ ok, that makes sense. Just hoping we don't get mangled in the meantime.

This is my guess too. Third game in seven days, altitude, and an away match to boot. I think he will try to clog things up defensively, then bring JDG and DeRo on around halftime (maybe before, maybe after), to try and slog out a 1-0 victory, if we haven't condeded.
Seems like a reasonably sound strategy to me. Running DeRo and de Guzman into the ground early, only to potentially have yet another late-game collapse, is the other option.
If we come away with a point from this fixture, I will be content. It'll be rough, after playing so much in the past seven days. Especially with what a slog the Montreal game was.

No Dero... No Deguzman... oh boy... I don't know... I might take back my prediction :/

It's also important to note that RSL aren't exactly playing great so far this season. Their record is worse than ours.
