I would be pretty happy with 6 goals 6 assists type of production, and there's nothing wrong with that. If he develops into anything more I will be pleasantly surprised.
    did you watch this team prior to last year? I'm wondering how anyone can have this opinion after his rookie season.

Again, nothing wrong with that... but lets keep in mind how good and consistent he really is. I want to see a good year out of him this year and I think we will, but not going to call him a great consistent player yet. He has his chance now, no excuses - lets see what he can do. This a defining moment in his career.
    Bekker is gone! We need another Canadian player to criticise. Who could we use?

    The other day I saw a vid of TFC training and it took me a minute to remember who the #5 was. I thought it was someone new because I couldn't remember anyone previously on the team wearing that number

    Hard to keep on criticizing somebody who's biggest achievement last season was a red card in one of his two starts.

    As for Osorio, you can't judge how he'd produce as a #10 based on his production playing in a pivot with no defensive cover behind and no one ahead. The result was him and Bradley running forwards and backwards aimlessly trying to both create goals and shield the defense. Regardless of where Osorio plays, I'm just looking forward to having players have defined roles in midfield.
