Kurtis Larson @KurtLarSUN 13m13 minutes ago
Perquis' status still unclear. In and out of training.
Kurtis Larson @KurtLarSUN 7m7 minutes ago
Kurtis Larson retweeted Vince Alvarado
He's in training. He's an option for Saturday.
Vince Alvarado @VinceByDemand @KurtLarSUN Whatever happened to Simonin?
DO they realize they could trade Edu and get a better grass surface. This might be the ideal time since he's suspended...

Hagglund absent from training today. Will update...
Toronto FC @torontofc 5m5 minutes ago Toronto, Ontario
Altidore: "I'm happy to be back in Toronto. I would say I'm around 80% healthy. I'm getting there." #TFCLive
Toronto FC @torontofc 5m5 minutes ago Toronto, Ontario
Altidore: "Absolutely I'll be ready for Saturday." #TFCLive
Toronto FC @torontofc 52s52 seconds ago Toronto, Ontario Vanney: "Nick Hagglund had his appendix removed last night. We're hoping he has a quick recovery." #TFCLive
An 80% Altidore may be ok for some minutes on Saturday even if just to intimidate their defense for a bit. I bet he hasn't been 100% all season but still managed to put in 6 goals. Wouldn't want him to re-injure himself though either. Hope him and the staff make the right call. Stay out of the game if necessary. I bet he wants to prove Klinsmann wrong about sending him home though so he may push to play.
Just in case our defense couldn't look any more suspect. Holy moly.
So we will have Zavaleta and Simonin for sure at CB with Perquis as a question mark and that's it?
This reeks of a Morrow to CB and Creavalle to FB switch/debacle that Vanney loves so much.
Bloom is back as well no?
Simonin recovered from knee surgeries already?
Simonin had a 25' run in the last TFC II match.
Nick Hagglund @Nickismyname 1m1 minute ago Toronto, Ontario Big thanks to staff at @MountSinai You guys are the best! The appendix-less life is great and will only get better! Can't wait to be back!
Dude is on morphine and they let him tweet. His wife should grab his phone and tell him to do his Sudoku from the gift basket he probably got.
While the Gold Cup performance was poor, at least we have at least one defender back...
He's been back for a bit and doesn't seem to figure in Vanney's plans whereas Creavalle is seemingly very important as he always gets squeezed in a match somehow, no matter the circumstances, even if he has a string of poor performances. Seeing that guy trot out and fuck everything up every week must be disheartening to others in the locker room who bust their asses in training and get no shot or who put in good performances (Bloom) and seemingly get tossed aside for the coach's pet.
2 games on the bench. Should have come in against NYCFC instead of Creavalle. Vanney has indicated they are going very slowly with him as Bloom keeps rushing himself back.
I wonder if its more of a match fitness kinda thing...?
Trade imminent?
And I hope you've got a big chip on your shoulder! And Gio too (since he was left off the All-Star roster).
Alrighty then, ignore my trade comment about Nick. All the best for a speedy recovery.

Rest of the city is feeling like 41 right then.
Hydrate people.
Is Altidore going to start?
Looks like it will be closer to:
--------------------------Bendik--------------------
--Morrow----Zavaleta--Simonin/Perquis--Morgan--
--------------------Cheyrou--------------------------
--Delgado------------------------------Warner------
-------------------Osorio---------------------------
-----Altidore----------------Giovinco-----------------
Maybe Moore/Jackson with Altidore at 60 min.
Hagglund questionable: http://www.torontofc.ca/news/2015/07...pendix-removed
If I had to guess right now, I think Perquis will be able to start with Zavaleta, and Moore will start with Altidore getting 30 minutes off the bench.
This lineup looks about right.
I'd be happy with that tomorrow
Yeah that looks good. Perquis should definitely be a starter alongside Zavaleta.
My subs (if needed):
Altidore <> Moore
Osario <> Chapman
Is Jackson out? After the NY game I'd be surprised if he doesn't start.
Not really sure, I don't think so. Jackson has been playing well and he deserves minutes. Starter or not.
Can't argue with that.
Hopefully we don't lose him for WCQ

So I was thinking of coming downtown early afternoon to park by Joe's. Anyone know if parking in Liberty Village will be madness with all the stuff going on at the Ex grounds? I am not worried about the HOV lanes so much to get there since I will have 4 people in the car altogether so it may even help. Expect to get to the area down there around 1:30-2:00 PM. Haven't been down there since all the Pan Am stuff started. I usually park at Lamport when I park in that area.
