ULTIMATE TFC: mark II

[__wowza]

so a few months back i did an "ultimate TFC" thread, it was used as a gauge to figure out who our best starting XI would be from the past 5 years. the issue with that was that it was done halfway through the season and many of the ratings that were put out to our current squad after many of them had only 1 or 2 games under their belt.

thus, ultimate TFC mark II

in association with the good people over at red nation online, i'm going to be doing up a massive infographic with the ultimate TFC over the past 5 seasons. vote for the players you think should make the cut, and discuss the choices here. i'll adjust the formation to what best fits who was chosen, add their stats, see if their wages would fit the MLS cap, add in subs, etc and i'll post everything when the articles ready to go.


i know it's a bit to ask to have everyone vote again, but come on, it's the offseason!!

[MG42]

would this be based on just the players performance while playing for TFC or their career?

just their time with TFC.

oops wasn't too sure about time with tfc when i voted, but i still like what i chose

i had some tough ones cuz certain players didn't play long with us, but i liked. the only question marks might be Tebily over Cann, Morgan over Brennan

--------------Frei------------
Eckersley-Welsh-Tebily-Morgan
--------Frings----Edu--------
-----------Guevara----------
DeRo--------------------Plata
----------Koevermans--------

i only voted 11, but if I had to add a bench

Sutton
Cann
Brennan
Avila
Dichio
de Guzman
Ryan Johnson

[STB]

Personally I went for:

-------------------Frei--------------
------Nana---Marshall-Jim.B----
---------------Frings--------------
O'brien--Edu--Cronin----Plata
---------DeRo--------------------
----------------Koevermans----

[Wooster_TFC]

Assuming 4-3-3, and unable to play people out of position, here's mine:

-----------------Frei----------------
Eckersley---Marshall--Cann---Brennan
----------------Frings---------------
----------DeGuzman---Guevara------
O'Brien----------------------DeRosario
--------------Koevermans------------

Notables:

Edu
Plata
Serioux
Morgan
Johnson

[mowe]

I went with 4-4-2 just to get the standard variety of positions.

------------------Frei--------------------
Eckersley---Marshall--Cann---Brennan
--------Edu----Frings----Cronin--------
---------------Guevara------------------
----------DeRo-------Koevermans------

Good sign that 3 of these players were picked up this season.

[Empirical]

Ay! Wanker! you for got Killian Elkinson, the most powerful left-back that ever dawned the red!!!

[Brooker]

How am I supposed to figure out who my starting 11 is when you left off Kiki Musampa and Martin "The Bull" Brittain?

[Detroit_TFC]

Are we doing all-time XI or just random best/favorite players?

[tfcleeds]

I would have refused to vote if Rick Titus and Derek Gaudet had been left off!

[Carts]

Is it bad that when I read some of these names my reaction is "...who the f*ck is that?..." LOL

Carts...

But seriously, I love this poll for the off-season, and need time to think about a some of my selections (some are no-brainers)...

[tfcleeds]

The funny thing is, I bet there are some teams in MLS that haven't used as many players over the last 5 years as we have this season. OK, probably stretching it a bit, but sure seems like it!

[Technorgasm]

Laurent Robert to the wing. .
Andy Wlesch. . to the top of the box. . .
Colin samual eats teh ball. .

then spits it out to Cunninghams feet for the

GOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!

HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! WELSH!!!!!! ALL TIME CENTRE BACK!!!!!!

That's brilliant! Nicely buried!

Thanks for the laugh.

[TorCanSoc]

Rick Titus !!!

Epic. One game rent a dude.

Not poking fun. I remember him from the Lynx days. If he was born 10 years later, he would have had an opportunity to play at this level for sure.

[s2cazz]

Can I vote Lombardo twice?

[jloome]

He did. He was Colorado's defender of the year in his one year in MLS, then went back to USL over a contract dispute (though I'm going by memory here, so this might be off.)

[DichioTFC]

4-3-3 just like Winter would want

----------------Frei------------------
--Brennan--Cann--Dicoy--Eckersley---
---------JDG--------Frings------------
----------------Edu------------------
---DeRo--------Koev--------Plata-----

Bench: Nana, D. Henry, A. Morgan, Wynne, Cronin, Guevara, R.Johnson, Dichio

[felipe]

I found this a lot harder than I thought I would - there is some decent players here!

I ended going up with my top 11 - irrespective of position, in favor of quality, because we really have had a plethora of good CM's and a real lack of anything resembling a DC.

So:


Frei
Eckersley-Frings-Brennan
Plata-JDG-Robbo-Guevera
DeRo
Dichio-Koeverman

Kind of a (very) makeshift 3-5-2

[prizby]

who remembers richard mulrooney?

now who remembers what we gave up for him. (the draft pick that was used to pick Brek Shea)
