Why IS Hagglund playing RB? Bloom/Orr would've put in a decent cross.

Gilberto is kinda stationary a lot.
"Micheal Bradley leading the charge forward"
We'll be hearing that a lot this season.
Dero is not looking good.
I've seen beer league games with more hustle. I wouldn't take much stock from this game. Get the impression this is being used as more of a run around then a statement on where we are as a team.
I keep hearing tremendous....jeez get another word.

nice cross from Morrow. too bad DeRo couldn't convert
“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.”
-Eduardo Galeano
I just think we lack chemistry, look like a team that just came together, which we are. Talent for talent, it's immediately obvious how much better this team is that what we've had in the past. Defensively, our hustle was somewhat lacking, which is probably partly because Columbus' midfield has played together before and is pretty close to full speed.Originally Posted by lazlo_80
Need to get the ball out to the left flank more. They're trying to force everything through Bradley or up the right side.
If that's any indication, looks like we can expect teams to flood the midfield. Nelsen will have to figure out how to deal with that. We looked constantly outnumbered.
Felt a little like we were playing a low-rent game with high-end parts. Guess that's just a product of guys getting used to each other. Columbus looked a lot more fluid out there.
Osorio and Bradley looked great going forward but we did concede a lot of the midfield. Might suggest we find a way to be a little bit tighter in the midfield.
Other major observation: we don't have much quality on the backline when it comes to holding the ball or playing short passes. High pressure game and we are coughing it up easily. That has to change.
This is coming down to the same thing we on this board have said the whole offseason. Who is going to be creating these goals? We have zero creativity with a stock of forwards DeRo, Gilberto and Defoe.....
Agreed. Would also like to see move movement from the strikers up top to unsettle their defense. It was a pretty easy first half if you were a columbus CB. Not too many piercing balls in behind or difficult runs to mark.
We need to get the ball to rey more often. He seemed wide open at times but we were just forcing the ball through the middle. I'd like to see Orr on the field. Hagglund and henry are mediocre at best.
tfc need to change tactics to get past the five man MF of the Crew i say go to a 4-1-2-1-2
What happened to Bloom? Is he injured?
Wieds and Lambe in for Gilberto and Jackson
Boss in for Caldwell
My stream gone arhhhhh
The stream is not working
i feel like the stream is down for good lol
Mine too.
Maybe it's just not meant to be for us to watch any preseason games in their entirety this year.
Why do I even bother watching preseason? MLS has the worst streams in the history of the internet.
Well, back to Olympic hockey, lol.
It's not very streamy?
Quick switch to hockey :@)

Toronto FC @torontofc 37s 49': Andrew Wiedeman one-on-one with the keeper. Lampson pushes it away. #TFClive
weeds u bum
No just TFC. I watched a couple other games and they worked without a hitch.
Well, we ended up winning the last time the stream cut out, so maybe that's a good thing.
..or any year.
It's the year 2014. We are on the cusp of having self driving cars, we have eye wear that act as powerful computers connected to the internet, we watched a robot land on mars in almost real-time (speed of communication with a remote planet limited).
... but yet MLS/teams cannot sort out a simple video feed from Florida.
The destruction of the league will not be spending or over spending in players. It will be their goddamn potatoes for cameras and zucchinis for modems in pre-seasons.
So, I guess I should get back to work...
Ha ha oops, stream back, you may need to refresh & restart the stream.
It's back, no sound/
