oh jesus, livepool at 71% possession.
74.7% now. That actually seems low.Originally Posted by __wowza
Liverpool support at 97%.
come onnnn youuu Reds.....oh wait
Enh. As long as no one gets hurt.
Sadly, 20 minutes in and the only shot on target for either team? RJ9.
yeah.. pretty fantastic when we're at home and we give up home colours for a cash grab. even the few folks who are showing up in their home kits look like they're wearing liverpool red.
it could be that, it could be the fact that they don't want to show the ghastly away wetsuits:
or the third kits that me in 2001 thought would be cool:
aaaaaand reggie lambe is down.
i swear to god anytime a player goes down im going to cross off a potential draft pick we're trading away.
OUT: astone morgan
IN: tyle pasher (TFC academy)
the kids are getting a run out today.
Yes but if you watch the premier league, you realize what guys like Charlie Adam do with that possession.
Was the Ashtone Morgan sub planned or injury?
probably planned, he didn't look to be favouring anything when he trotted off.
pasher with a great tackle.
phew! and well done Pasher!!!
The refs have so much respect for the talent of Terry Dunfield that they wouldn't DARE give a penalty against Him.
we're TCF apparently.. here's what some liverpool fans are saying.
TCF might actually be an interesting team to play, watched them play Colorado last night. Nowhere near the talent level of LFC, but a lot of raw athletic ability.Toronto has had a fairly tough schedule of late, and many of their fans are irked at having this friendly midseason. But the one thing you cannot fault them for is conditioning - some real horses on that side, Eccleston would fit right in. They won't be tired unless we make them chase the ball for most of the game.Koevermans unfortunately just got injured, out for the season. With the number of games they have played, and have to play soon, they have even less incentive than LFC to field their best side - the MLS season is around the 2/3rds mark. I'd be particularly surprised to see Frings, he is still class, but he is definitely getting on and does not need the extra wear-and-tear.
as this is a friendly, would i be correct to assume we're allowed more than 3-5 subs?
hall has had the biggest smile on his face all game. i don't care if we're playing scrubs today, being able to say "i held a clean sheet against liverpool" at that age would be quite an accomplishment.
Pasher with the play of the game so far
Both teams agreed to unlimited subs. So i guess that's it for most of the first team. Good half.
Pasher: "I'd die to play for this club." Well, you just made yourself a new fan.
Alrighty, first half notes?
Freddy Hall looks decent (and quite pleased, debuting for TFC against Liverpool) - if he's cheap enough, let's sign him up!
Tyler Pasher is looking good. Looking forward to seeing more of him, but just an example of the academy shaping up well.
Liverpool? These are reserves but they don't look too confident on the offence.
Hall is the 27 yo Bermudan trialist.
Mariner said he was looking to sub Morgan at 20-25 mins.
No shot on target.
eep. you're right, got him mixed up with roberts.
Thanks! This friendly makes me so uncomfortable. You know guys like Eck, Johnson and Dunfield will be going full tilt. I guess that goes for all of them.
The energy level should pick up in the 2nd half with all the kids in.
No surprise, but when they pan the crowd, the women in TFC Jerseys are waaaaaaaay better looking than the Liverpool females.
Forrest has aome really good things to say about Roberts, may be the GK of the future for CMNT. Looks like we get to see what he can do for ourselves 2nd half
SECOND HALF LINEUP:
------amarikwa-wiedeman--------
