Matchday 3 : TFC at Real Salt Lake, Sat March 29 9:30PM EST

[Oldtimer]

At altitude, a counter-attacking team like TFC will find it difficult to play against a very good possession team like RSL.

[Eastend]

How many players are we down?

[TFC07]

Valid point but of course but imo pretty shameless not to put Bekker in there. Hall is hopeless it's incredible he was even retained, Bekker at his worst, running around like a lost boy still has more upside than Hall...and we really only saw that once in CC. His limited first team action since was actually quite good.

Nelsen likes Hall more than Bekker because Hall is more defensive minded unlike Bekker who plays more like attacking midfield.

[brad]

The problem is, who specifically could correct what was wrong in the first?

Pretty much. We got slaughtered out wide. Bringing on an attacking player there is not going to help us.

We miss Jackson tonight.

[Jack]

Anyone got a stream?

First row has it.

[TFC07]

What shot by Bradley, but too bad it hit post.

[Lumpy]

Damn. Off the post.

[pdubs]

Bradley with the post lol.

[brad]

2nd, 3rd to every ball.

Welcome to altitude.

[TFC07]

Game over now. Let's just play some good football and try to score a goal now.

[defensor]

as if bekker would be any better..

[Jack]

Damn.

[RealG-TFC]

Sub DeRo or Issey in now.

[Oldtimer]

Game over.

[dutch]

hat trick. now thats a bloody big deal

[pdubs]

What is the worst that could happen by putting in Issey, Dero and Bekker at this point? Down 3-0.

[OgtheDim]

Something I've noticed is we don't seem to be used to how much force is needed to move the ball to a certain spot.


WOW....

[Daveisonfire]

Nelsen likes Hall more than Bekker because Hall is more defensive minded unlike Bekker who plays more like attacking midfield.

He might be more defensive minded, but he's really chasing it this game.

[Jack]

We are receiving a lesson.

[Kaz]

That is pitiful.

I don't know what is happening.. but this has been just pitiful.

[Jack]

Nice go from Gilberto. Need more of that.

[gracos]

well at least we know we still have lots of work to do, to get to a respectable finish of this season; playoffs are possible but no way can we finish 1st in our conference, just not there yet

[brad]

That Goal Gong is pretty sweet. We should get one.

[InDa_110]

Let's not make any changes. Everything is just fucken perfect.

[cochrdoc]

We have been totally outclassed.Our defence still looks poor.Nelson doesn`t seem to be able to make adjustments in the game.Has the bubble been bursted

[TFC07]

On a positive note, we're starting to get some chances.

[Jack]

Two posts now. The three DPs are still working.

[ag futbol]

Yeah I agree Hall < Bekker. I'd take my chances trying to motivate Bekker to work over trying to hope Hall actually one day learns how to read a game.

We really need Bradley to stay at home and shield next to an overwhelmed hall. Drop Dero in the hole behind the strikers, sub Bloom.

[brad]

well at least we know we still have lots of work to do, to get to a respectable finish of this season; playoffs are possible but no way can we finish 1st in our conference, just not there yet

I wouldn't go that far. We are seeing how far we need to go to be one of the best teams the league has ever seen. But that has no bearing on a respectable finish.

[Lumpy]

Henry had a goal if he headed it down.
