    Gilberto has not maintained a consistant finishing rate in Brazil. He's had one spell of great form that lasted two months last fall in a league not known for great defending or physical play.

    IMO that spot is up for grabs and Dike should offer more combination play and balances out the attack better.

    Based on what I saw of him last night (which wasn't much, given the fog), for once, maybe that phrase will finally be apt!

    Yes, that's true. I'm happy with that. Dike will just have to earn his playing time. Should be interesting.

    For me, I'd be happy just to no longer be the Wost Team in the World (TM), and make it to the second round of the playoffs.

    I can't help but think its possible to win the whole thing, that's the beauty of the playoffs. Colorado in 2010 comes to mind. They miss the playoffs in 2009, are seeded 7th in 2010 and go on to win it all.

    I bet we are so good this year, that FIFA makes an exception just for us, so we can play in the UEFA Champions League. Also, they will give us a bye to the final. Let the rest of the football world fight over who gets the honour of losing to us.

    Also, TFC will secede from Canada and become it's own nation state, so it can compete in the World Cup... where we will get another bye to the final. Jermain Defoe will be elected the first President of BMOistan.

    That's a great picture.

    Back in 1968, the fog was thick at Anfield, when Liverpool scored a goal at the Anfield Road end. The Kop, who may have been able to just see the centre circle, sang out "Who Scored the Goal" and the Anny Road end sang back "Tony Hateley, Tony Hateley".
    O, Maple Leaf around the world, You speak as you rise high above,
    Of courage, peace and quiet strength, Of the Canada that I love.
    Remind us all, our union bound by ties we cannot sever,
    Bright flag revered on every ground, The Maple Leaf forever
