Unless we see an unusually bad game, I expect us to win this game, and it won't be as close as it was with Montreal.

MLS is a tough, physical league, that emphasizes speed, and features plastic fields, grueling travel, extreme weather, and incompetent refs. - NK Toronto
Well here we go, it's all about to begin. Seattle arrives in Toronto this evening with their first media availability once they are here. Both teams train at KIA tomorrow. Saturday can't come soon enough.

Good Frei profile here.
Interesting week with a lot of historical stuff coming out. Mo/Preki really were trying to move everything that wasn't nailed down after 2009.

^ That's rad!
Maybe they should have also added "FC" after the Toronto sign.

Anyone else really dislike this new presenter lady?
Also, kind of irked at the "strange twist of fate" comment about Cheyrou.
Totally capable player, worked hard for that goal. This is a shitty little slight towards him.
Not sure I see it as a slight towards Cheyrou.Originally Posted by samuraizero
She's just saying that he's an unlikely hero.
Which is true since he's really not known for scoring goals.
btw, if Cheyrou comes into the game this weekend,
we should sing Hey Jude (Cheyrou) for him.
I hope those chips on the shoulder that Frei and Herc have weight them down some and are a distraction to them on Saturday. Good to hear that things turned out well for him though, Frei was pure class as a person, only name I ever had put on a jersey, sadly he got traded before I had a chance to wear it...
Trust MLS.com to screw up my order. Ordered the adidas coaches jackets a week ago and it has arrived today. Sure enough I open it up to see nothing but the f*cking Vancouver Whitecaps logo! Typical MLS
So .... heart attack time question.
Assume that it's unlikely that Seba and Cooper can go 120 minutes: who are your PK takers? and in what order?
Altidore
Cheyrou
Johnson
Morrow
Bradley
Should Ricketts be on the list? Osorio? Beitashour?
“What the world needs is more geniuses with humility; there are so few of us left.”
Why would Seba not be able to go 120?
I'm the last person to buy into conspiracies, believe me, but tbh looking back on it all, I'm a little skeptical that he was "injured".....follow me for a minute.....
Considering that the was basically neutralised by the Impact over the 2 legs, is it too much to suggest that Vanney played a bit of gamesmanship in the extra time?
Have (an otherwise ineffective) Seba go down with an "injury" at the most critical juncture of the game, and totally eff up Montreal's defensive strategy in the Extra Time.
Then just trust your veterans with some big game experience to get it done (Bradley, Jozy, Cheyrou, and Ricketts to an extent)
Because realistically, in a game of that magnitude, you could never just sub Seba, but he was having 0 space out there.....something to think about....
anyways, your 5 PK takers are pretty much what I would have except put Seba in for Morrow and have him kick 3rd.....
Jozy
Cheyrou
Seba
Bradley
Johnson
cool, i thought william hill was in the uk?
do you live in uk?
can i place bets on william hill in canada? i dont think i can
tfc outright on willhill down to 1.44 now!!! 70%
Chey-rou, you are so rad,
You took our sad thoughts, and made them better.
Remember, you'll always be in our hearts,
You took that high cross, and made a header.
Header, header, Header, HEAder, HEADer, HEADER, WAHHHHHHH!
Nah Nah Nah Na-na-na-nah, Na-na-na-nah, Cheyrou! <Repeat this line ad nauseum>
No problem with her in general, but is it just me or does she introduce the Ricketts goal by saying that the game was tied on aggregate?
Why did reading this lineup make me cringe? Like a shot of Tequila. Not saying it's bad, just my initial reaction.
I'll just take a wild shot at this too and say...
Giovinco
Altidore
Bradley
Cooper (Cheyrou)
Johnson (Osorio)
*not too sure who would be on, but I think that's the best seven we got.
Gotta let our money makers...make their money.
Ricketts
Giovinco
Bradley
Altidore
Cheyrou (the man is just too smooth, bet he wouldn't crack under pressure)
Don't want to think any further...
This is awesome. Gonna steal it for reposting purposes!
Saturday really can't come soon enough, the MLS Cup could really showcase Canada in all its winter white glory. I really see Seba going the full 90, 120 if needed unless something serious comes up, he will fight until the end. It's going to be epic !!!

That's all I'll say about that.
tfc can't allow any one on one's with Irwin, that usually results in a goal
if we stop those situations he is an alright goalie
That's GOLD JERRY, GOLD
This is great!
Might need to sing this anyway, whether in or not, as a thank you (possibly pre-game when we warms up? I know it would be hard but would be fun)

My original suggestion was meant to imply we just do the:
na na na, na na na naaa, na na na naaa, Cheyrou!
Like we did for Edu.
Easy to do.
The extra words just overcomplicate things.
Maybe because it is MLS Cup time they took your jacket to give to someone else more important to them and put you in a lottery to try to get another jacket that was close to what you wanted but not exactly. They figure hey at least you got a jacket. Sounds like MLS.
I don't know where to put this, so I guess I'll put it here.
1) If is TFC wins the cup, after everyone celebrates in stadium, where will the party head? Any streets in particular?
2) I want to suggest something. In the 1st year, last game, we stormed the pitch at the whistle. Great memories. I know it is common in Europe when u win the league, the supporter storm the pitch. Italy, England Sweden etc... Here's the one from Sweden this year:
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ysxSWOZ8bmM
Any thoughts?
I say we bring kegs down to the pitch and throw a party there.
They would be cool with that, right?
That is brilliant!
Absolutely amazing idea
That is a bang on explanation of the MLS! Now they want me to pay for the shipping back and they're just going to refund me my money and I will not be getting my order! What a joke
