here he comes
come on urruti sling in the winner
Finally. Both Urruti and Rey should've been subbed on at the same time though.
Remember I called the Urruti hat trick.
Damn Weeds needed to get that pass right.
Can't remember the last time I saw one of our forwards work as hard off the ball as Wiedeman has tonight. Created space, tackled, closed people down. Didn't always make the right decision but a good shift and a goal.
W is already better than Earnshaw
lambe needs to hit the target that is just terrible not even close
HAHAHAHAH announced attendance of 18,000.
They must be counting the people watching the game from the cne ferris wheel
WTF come on
Serioux and dunleavey need to watch the replay. Lol
Are you kidding me with that shit? That's a goal.
Caldwell clearly kicked the defender's leg out from under him
Well the streak continues, NE still have never beaten us at home
He what?
Caldwell didnt kick anyone. He put his hand on the defenders shoulder and the ref determined that it prevented him from getting a head on the ball.
Good battle back. Not a great game but there was a lot of hard work out there.
finish
we def dominated the second half just cant finish our chances.
It really wasn't too bad, from either team. Very physical. Surprised one of the teams didn't go down a person.
Wiedeman was good, Osorio's delivery was the best we've seen from him so far. Second goal wasn't a goal; the reason Caldwell gets to it first is he puts just enough pressure on the defender ahead of him's shoulder to make him a split second off the ground, which is why in the replay, by the time his head meets the ball, the player in front of him is at the same height.
It gave him a split second advantage, from the ref's perspective.
Lambe played well. Rey looked dangerous cutting inside in his brief time. I'm pretty optimistic across the pitch after that. Hall was anonymous but clogged some shit up. I guess Earnie's continued cold streak was the only real downside. He's been like that his whole career, scores in bunches. Technically good player and finisher but when he goes cold, he goes Jeff Cunningham cold.
Bad call. If that's a foul on Caldwell then the ref missed 6 penalties today. Give me a break.
I thought the idea to bring in players in the summer was to make the team better.We got about 25 minutes out of the new guys.People are saying Lambe was one of the better players out there.At the end of the day no goals or assists,just like the rest of the season.We get very little chances at goal.I was hoping the new players would improve that.I quess their not good enough to start.Why did we bring them in.Was it another knee jerk reaction
That's it, for me; consistency was grossly lacking, tonight, from the ref. If that's not a goal, than we should have been up a man for a half hour or so -- something's got to give.
Rey and Urruti need to be on the field for more than 5-15 minutes this is getting ridiculous. Nelsen is blowing smoke using fitness as the reason. Urruti wasn't even off that long and has been training for a number of weeks. I'm one of the first ones to defend Convey but I think Rey should get the next start over him, Convey and Lambe are not that consistent on a week to week basis you can easily find reason to get Rey more involved every game.
We were the better team. Urruti is the real deal. Weidman was a terrier. Convey and Ecks can't cross worth beans. Lambe doesn't trust himself. Rey will be good. Hall was decent but he is no Laba.
Crowd stayed through the rain. Impressed. Lots of good stuff for the future.
you're right... Stupid FO. They need to start Urruti, Rey, Elmer, Bloom, and Thomas, and they need to score and get goals immediately, which they aren't doing. What else is new? TFC is stupid, run by stupid people, and owned by ml$e.
edit: /facepalm.

Revs are MLS new 'it' team no surprise they badly want them in the playoffs and that we were on the wrong end of two terrible decisions - Nguyen not getting a second yellow and the non-goal.
I wouldn't have a problem with that no-goal call if refs in this league would at least call the game consistently. I've seen plenty muggings go down as no-calls.
I know we regularly complain about the refs in MLS, but this year with their 'experimental' new crop, they are completely atrocious.
Larson: "So the referee told Caldwell he made a mistake on TFC's apparent winner, according to Nelsen."
Lovely.
As the two were coming down you can clearly see Caldwell giving him a can opener. It was subtle and came a split second after the header, but I think this is why the ref called it the way he did
