Now that's cutting it a little close.
Damnit I thought i was first to post this. You win this one!
Pic above pretty much says it all. Hope he improves that aspect of that game..
He was solid in his last game till he lost it. He'll be fine.
That name though....its like no other name....
Yourassowsky, better than Hscanovics from what I've seen.
Matt Gold is rated highly in the university circles.
Should be okay
pretty close???
the name Yourassowsky... up there with Seamon and Vagenas.
We almost had one "Jamal Gay"
Imagine the commentators,
"Gay gives it to Yourassowsky"
Why do I smell a chant coming on for yourassowski?
ahhh.....some last even signings.
Does TFC not read prior to posting?
Goldie!!!!!!! (inside joke)
i guess they are not signing plata??
why they signing so many d-mid types gold,stugis,stinson,bouch,deguz,cordon.
^ I think that's because we're probably going to line up like this, with two d-mid types shielding the back-line. These guys are going to be asked to do a lot and will be key to holding it all together.. will be important to have some competition and depth in those spots.

It looks defensive at face value but the two backs get up and attack in a hurry.

Goldsieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I believe that Plata already has a loan deal with MLS. I'm hearing that he's not with the team in Vancouver though. Perhaps someone else can confirm this? After the Yourassowsky signing, it would be interesting to get a definitive answer on the number of international roster spots that TFC has left open.
Plata also just appeared on the roster. Guessing he was already signed with the loan deal.
Edit: Ok, that's strange, he's gone. He was just there a minute ago.

If Matt Gold has been signed, Plata has been signed for sure, or will be.
Yeah, that's what I figure.
He's on the roster on http://www.mlssoccer.com/players/toronto-fc but not http://www.torontofc.ca/players
Plata will be one to watch, that's for sure.
The fact that he's scoring goals in combine/preseason at his height, he looks very promising.
Plata is interesting since he was loaned to the MLS, so I am not sure if actually had to be signed since he already has a contract. Does anyone know if he actually needs to sign a MLS contract, I wonder on that one.
I really like what he brings to the pitch despite his small stature. It will be interesting to see how he does when given a chance.

This guy Yourassovsky will have some experience of playing in windy conditions. Check out the Rijeka stadium, Kantrida - it's carved into the side of a steep hill alongside the Adriatic...

Happy about both. Hope Yourassowsky doesn't turn out to be a Garcia- or Saric-style card machine, though.
LOL, seriously, why didn't he at least change the english spelling of his name? Yurasowsky wouldn't be nearly as bad...
