    Formation tweak.


    And kudos once again to GOL announcer for asking the tough question about RB in a nice way and getting an answer.

    On that YouTube feed it says please stand by for another 5 hours & 19 minutes; I guess the game is starting at midnight...

    I'm calling a 0-0 draw. Our defence is vastly improved, but I don't have faith that our offense can find the back of the net nyet.

    Think it could be a 4-3-3:

    Same back 5
    Bradley - Cheyrou - Osorio
    Findley - Giovinco - Altidore

    Brings back memories of the first TFC training camp at IMG. No one there except for me and my kids.

    The way this is starting, I would be seriously disappointed if TFC doesn't score a couple of goals.

    I don't understand why were playing against a bunch of kids, no disrespect to the Costa Rican team but this lineup should be playing against MLS teams that grind it out.

    How else are you going to learn to break down an athletic MLS team, we need to be playing a tougher opposition than more technical youth teams.

    Beggars can't be choosers. Plus it's still good practice, also for the TFC defence. Costa Rica could quickly do some damage if TFC doesn't pay attention for a moment, as shown a few minutes ago.

    All this talk about the "center referee" ...

    But overall, good stream, good announcer considering it's pre-season.

    Welcome to MLS Seba, don't expect too much from the refs.

    I literally called the direction of that PK five seconds before it happened.

    And Seba can't beat the keeper on a penalty kick. Yikes!

    I wish our fullbacks were just a little bit more skilled on the ball...

    Decent start though. Really controlling the game.

    Cheyrou is dancing out there today. He's finding the tightest pockets and maneuvering in and out of them like a goddamn magician.

    Oh shit Gio you have got to be kidding me.

    BTW I wouldn't call the Costa Rican defence very "technical." Lots of big boys committing lots of fouls, not that different in that aspect from MLS, even if they aren't as good as MLS squads overall.

    That's looking like a 4-3-3.
