    Ricketts and Chapman cleared to play, Williams back in full training. Looks like we have lots of options now. I would bring Zav back in for Hagalund, Nick is a beast in the air but is really not very comfortable looking on the ball, where as Zav is quite composed on the ball. Maybe give Cooper the start instead of Cheyrou. I'm almost tempted to drop Johnson for Delgado. Love his passion and fearless tackling but he was really poor last game and Delgado came on and made an instant impression.
    Maybe ease Ricketts back in off the bench around the 60 min mark when hopefully Orlando are starting to get tired. Last resort Seba off the bench if we are not winning?

    Let's see if Kreis is smarter than Heath was. Last year we had a similar scenario; we came off a few matches where we were stymied by the NYCFC press and then a copycat. Health came in and gave us all the time in the world and Orando got pooched. Does Kreis follow Philly's lead and challenge us to beat the press or does he try to play their game?

    Seb Hines couldn't press an elevator button without getting beaten. They'll try and press because kreis likes high pressure and a diamond to quickly capitalize, but he doesn't have the right manpower to handle other teams' speed, which is why they've given up four in two straight.

    We should start with three at the back and high fullbacks, Ricketts up top with Altidore.

    Toronto FC HAS to beat Shithole City. A draw, or worse, against their shitty defense would be seen as a huge defeat on the Reds part.

    Expect a lot of squad rotation from Orlando tonight

    "Kreis said the team did a lot of talking following its last defeat Saturday against D.C. United and many of the players who did not start in that match will get an opportunity in Toronto, so they need to be prepared."

    Illuminating. My folks got a timeshare down there too. Don't take the banter as a hit on your Snowbird City. We all like actually travelling to most of these MLS destinations (Minus the obvious Trillium experience of course.)

    Wouldn't it be funny if one day Orlando goes out of their way to make sure they have a Canadian on their team for Snowbirds (Well I guess they'd be full time snowbirds but you get my meaning)

    If we had just a few less home draws we would be running away with the Supporters Shield. Really need a win tonight. We need first in the east at least.

    Babs earned a start, it just makes more sense.

    Hamilton is a marksman and needs good service

    I agree^ but I think it's more that Hamilton and Altidore are too similiar in playing style to start together. I'd prefer Ricketts to start too if he's healthy enough to go 60 mins.

    This is hilarious. It's like everyone that defends how awesome Phoenix is out here

    As much as I love Cyle Larin, he can kindly piss off and save his goals for another match.

    You can buy ponchos in the team store. Buy early as they sell out.

    Florida makes Ohio look sane by comparison. And THAT'S saying something!

    Shithole City needs to go down tonight!

    Won't sell out if they have the same stock as last season as there hasn't been a rain game but for one where it came in the north for a few minutes and most of the crowd is covered. It's sunny right now down here but the clouds are threatening something in the next 12 hours.

    Ricketts in for Hamilton, nothing else to discuss...we already know their gameplan! They're going to press us like the NY Shite-bulls.

    Bono in the starting XI. I thought Irwin would be good to go

    Squad rotation? Probably not for a keeper...

    It's a mistake not to have Irwin as the clear #1 heading into the playoffs.

    I can agree with that, they're both good so give them one game per week.

    Strategy. Vanney expects Kreis to press a young keeper and that plays into their weakness. Very astute, if it works.

    They have some attackers we need to be mindful of, but wow is that back line terrible.
