makes it obvious we need a quality winger.
jackson in front of Delgado makes sense . I thought he should have been there to help Crevealle. Prefer a 4-2-3-1 though, makes the most sense, particularly when Bradley is playing.
Toronto FC @torontofc 3m3 minutes ago Perquis: "Life doesn't stop after losing a game. We have to keep working. The feeling in the group is good."
I like this Perquis dude.
So many possible man crushes
so few actual wins.
How true, if Delgado is in I wouldlike to see how Jackson does in front of him on the wing, and Jackson can score some very dirty scrappy goals, witch I don't mind at all, as long as they are going in the net at the other end.
I am still not sold on Osorio, do we not have another option on that side, Lovitz?
Jackson can play that side, and have Findlay on the right?
Vanney: Perquis is good to go and Bloom is questionable. Zavaleta will make the trip with us. #TFCLive

Is Bradley available for this game?
If so I would like to see:
---------------Bendik----------------
Oso------Hagg---------Perquis----Morrow
-----------Bradly----Cheyrou--------
---Jackson--------Gio---------------Lovitz
----------------Alt-----------------------
I know Oso at RB sounds ridiculous, but with the success of Shea and Rogers slotting in defence and Vanney's love of overlapping attacking defenders it might be something worth thinking about. It also depends on weather Oso can overcome his size and poor defence track record to hold off attackers.
Just a thought.

John Molinaro @JohnMolinaro 1m1 minute ago Bloom questionable for Saturday. Caldwell out. Perquis and Zavaleta available.
John Molinaro @JohnMolinaro 7m7 minutes ago
Bloom left practice early today because the calf injury was bothering him. He'll be evaluated later today. He may not travel. #TFC

Does Zavaleta play RB? Lol.
I thought I saw somewhere (here, maybe) that he's staying in the States and meeting up with the team in Dallas.
John Molinaro @JohnMolinaro 52s52 seconds ago Simonin also out Saturday due to swelling in knee. #TFC
Vanney said on Tuesday he'd have a day off in Texas today and meet the team Friday in Dallas.
Why do all the injuries originate in one area of the field? *groan*
Don't expect a big crowd, there won't be much walk up. Mavs-Rockets game one tipoff is at 9.30pm EDT.
What the world needs is more geniuses with humility; there are so few of us left.
There were a few games last year where I loved what I saw from Jackson - worked his tail off and created havoc for other team. It's too bad he's not more complete as a player but, yes, can be effective on the wing.
Vanney's comments on Delgado 4/16 - wouldn't match up well vs Castillo, wouldn't want to put him in a spot where he couldn't do his best, would only use him at RB only if it was absolutely necessary.

Dallas, Frisco, and surrounding counties have all been issued Severe Thunderstorm Watches for tonight and tomorrow, and intermittent rain and high winds is expected all the way through to Saturday. Temperature is still to remain about 27 tomorrow and 28 Saturday afternoon, so it could end up being a bit humid at kick-off if the winds die down and the rain stops. So far though, it's looking like it will be another wet and windy game on Saturday which could be to TFC's advantage.
Dallas is going into the match Saturday with a record of 3-2-1 against Toronto's 1-3-0. It should be noted that in all three of their wins, Dallas was able to score first and hang on to the lead. However, FCD is coming off two very painful recent losses. The match on April 4th ended with a 3-1 loss in Portland, and last week saw them beat at home 4-0 by Colorado. Dallas is trying to stop a potential a 3-game losing streak, so a lot of people are predicting a pretty aggressive match by the home team - despite what the environmental conditions may bring. Also, the crowd numbers aren't expected to be great given the weather forecast and Mavs/Rockets game ensco mentioned above.
I think Toronto could very well pick up three points here if they are able to grind away and take the wind out of FCD's sails early.

Did the USA , of all countries, just fix soccer? - C. Ronaldo, May 27th commenting on the FBI-led investigations into fraud and corruption throughout FIFA.
if we dont get shafted by the refs and our backline holds up we have a shot. you have to remember the RSL game where a good goal of ours was disallowed and a goal was allowed after a clear offside should have stopped the play.
Good write up, Cashcleaner. It sounds like Dallas is going to be super aggressive going into this. If we can manage absorb the pressure, we have the right players to hit them on the counter.
Is Findley available? I haven't been overly impressed but I can't imagine he's lost his starting spot already.
He's been terribly inconsistent, and more on the poor end than the positive. We should give Hamilton a start.
Hamilton is way more likely to be off to Vancouver. Dallas use big bruising centre backs. Hamilton ain't ready for that yet. Findley's pace will move them around and then Dike can come in the 60th and bang them up a bit.
Look for them to kick Gio all the time - hopefully we punish them with some free kicks. And look for Cheyrou to get in his licks - he's a mean cuss who knows when to do what to the naughty boys. Blaz Perez is going to lose his shit.
John Molinaro @JohnMolinaro 3h3 hours ago Good news #TFC fans: A team official told me Mark Bloom has traveled to Dallas.
Man, oh man, I hope the back four is Bloom--Hagglund--Perquis--Morrow.
If Vanney goes with Morrow--Zaveletta--Hagglund --Morgan I'm going to have a hard time watching the game.
More likely Perquis starts than Bloom. I think Perquis is essentially a lock to start at this point.
I think there may be an element of "game-time decision" with Bloom but the fact that he traveled suggests to me the plan is to start him. I'm going to be pretty nervous about him though - 0 minutes played this year and coming off an injury, and lining up against Castillo. He will need to be more than sharp.
What time does everyone show up at Shoeless tomorrow? Membership people will be there too right?
Thank you
The injury table giveth
and the injury table taketh away.
Larson:
Caldwell out. Perquis in. Bloom/Cheyrou travelled, but both didn't take part in training.
Told it's a groin. He was jogging around the pitch, though. Could still be an option.
