    A lucky hit off the post, a fortunate call on an offside goal that could have been considered not offside, but I'm happy over the 3 points.

    9 away points in 7 games. That's better than average.

    Yesssssss. This road trip suddenly stinks a whole lot less. Now we come home on a two game winning streak. Ugly, but six points on the road and 180 minutes without giving up a goal.

    Thank goodness. That was some scary goalkeeping. I'm pretty content with 3 wins on this long road trip.

    A win is a win, but surely they could have put in a better performance considering the problems Philly has had.

    We should've scored four against that team. Good to go home with nine points in the bag, though. Seventeen of the remaining 27 at home.

    It's something to head home with. At least Vanney adjusted to give the back some cover.

    Honestly if Findlay or Bradley could finish it would have been 3 or 4 goals for sure.

    End result good. How we got there wasn't considering Philly was missing half their starters and we couldn't score from the run of play.

    What a lucky offside call.. oh well, it happens. Happy to win but we almost got burned for missing a few earlier chances.

    Phew.

    Glad we won. Hopefully as the season goes on, we'll win and control the majority of the possession.

    I think watching us play Philly today looked a lot like watching good teams play past TFC teams at BMO. we got our goal, showed more individual and team competence, held steady at the back, but otherwise sort of played down to the other team knowing how bad they are. against a better team we probably see a more demanding performance from us today.

    He sure was. I still say dump him and snag a NASL GK.

    Getting a clean sheet with him in goal, no matter how shit the Union are, is a compliment to our improved defence more than anything else.

    Bradley doesn't offer too much going forward.

    I see nothing wrong with the way we payed today outside of bunkering back a little too often in the final 20 and some individual errors which have little to do with coaching.

    Missing my point Mr mole: no need to bash Nelsen in this thread. He has nothing to do with this game.

    Considering how many starters Philly was missing it was disappointing not to have put this game to bed. We were due for a blowout and this would've been the perfect game.

    Yup, that's how I saw it. But I will take referee's errors in our favour. We are owed a few...

    And if our wide players could hit the water from the end of a pier it would have been 3-0 at half time.

    Nice to get a win, but TFC don't really appear to play like a contender.

    I thought there was a foul in the box not an offside on that called back goal but I could be mistaken.

    LOL people. Seven road games and we've got three wins. Our DPs and other acquisitions seem to be developing chemistry and we stopped bleeding goals. It wasn't pretty, but when we tried to play pretty, we were getting shredded and Vanney was a chump. Just take the win and the two-game road winning streak coming home and enjoy it for an hour or so before picking out all the negatives. Jeez, you'd think this were a supporters forum or something....
