Morning
Wondering if I coudl call upn the Anorak's here. .
How successful (Other than Maurice EdU) has TFC been in the draft?
Who would be stand out contributors that have come from the draft system?
NOTICE: Wager with STB: OVER 2 shots on goal in the First half wins a Pint at HT.
Nelson tempering expectations a bit. Makes sense.
Not having been hired by the current regime, I expect he'll be on the hot seat quickly if for some reason they have a poor start.
if Nelsen screws up and Seattle either doesn't win Supporter's Shield or a deep playoff run, expect fat Sigi to be TFC manager for 2015Originally Posted by Batman
“Years have gone by and I’ve finally learned to accept myself for who I am: a beggar for good football.
I go about the world, hand outstretched, and in the stadiums I plead: ‘A pretty move, for the love of God.’
And when good football happens, I give thanks for the miracle and I don’t give a damn which team or country performs it.”

Frei and Cronin come to mind. Other than that, pretty slim pickings. Jury still out on Bekker of course.
Joao Plata, Luis Silva, and Brian Edwards as decent.
On related note, look how strong the 2009 draft was
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2009_MLS_SuperDraft
Zakuani, Cronin, Gonzalez, Marosevic, Rodney Wallace, Pontius, Besler, Alston, Frei, George John, DeLaGarza, Kocic, Zusi (23rd pick!!!!), & Danny Cruz.
edit - just for fun, I think this team stacks up well for a single draft glass
---------------Zakuani
Zusi-------Pontius-------Cruz
----------Cronin----John
Wallace--Besler--Gonzalez--Alston
--------------Frei
Bench:
Kocic, DeLaGarza, Marosevic, Husidic, Hall, Grella
