    Default Maurice Edu Appreciation Thread.

    Mo, you busted your ass on and off the field in your first year for a dismal TFC franchise in the first year, and you were always positive about the team and the city. It didn't work out for you this year as well, but good luck in the SPL.

    Whoa. This thread looks like it was taken from a Canadian olympics broadcast. "You tried your best. 156th place isn't bad. Thanks!"

    He was a big part of the first year festivities of TFC. Our first draft pick. And scored a couple of nice goals for us.

    I am glad he was a part of TFC, he worked hard and I am glad he made us a ton of money on the way out. There is nothing more you can ask of a player.

    Maurice... We have never met but I did enjoy watching you play for TFC.
    Good Luck overseas! A great chance to continue learning your trade in a truly footy atmosphere all of the time.

    Here is your chance to show em that we can develop talent on this side of the pond.
    All the best.

    This sale may give TFC a lil more European recognition at the very least.

    Mo...remember, remember....remember that time when you scored that goal...and then, then you took your shirt off and waved it around and the fans went crazy?!?! That was awesome!

    Remember when...that time when everyone said you were the best rookie? And they gave you that award at the end of the year? And all the fans were so proud? Remember that? That was awesome!

    Good luck Mo.
    Refocus on the game and forget about your website and video games.
    You won't survive otherwise.

    I came up with a decent chant for you that no-one adopted. You got sent off against Houston in the middle of the drought of '07. You can be a bit of a dirty bastard sometimes. You seem lost in front of goal. I'll get over you.
    a ha ha heh he hoo.. ha

    I just dont get it. In a league like this its crap.
    its not like we are going to buy 2 2 million dollar players.
    All this is gonna do is give the MLS and MLSE more FUCKIN MONEY.


    I am not the biggest Maurice Edu fan but i dont like this move at all. Especially since we got Nobody to replace him. Plus even with him in the line up were needed alot more.

    Lets just hope knows what he is doing.

    Dude, it doesn't give MLSE more money. The money from these transfers has to go back into the team.

    And it looks like Tello may be the replacement, judging by the rumours.

    I am getting the feeling you guys aren't familiar with the idea of an appreciation thread.

    Got a gripe? Take it to any of the other threads where Mo's being bashed.

    The guy has scored almost as many goals as Cunny for us despite being paid half of what Cunny was and playing a completely different position. And on top of that, he sends almost $4mill of his transfer fee our way and we are complaining why???

    Don't get me wrong, I appreciate that he has sent almost $4 million our way. I just don't understand it based on his play this season...

    Edu definitely has his moments for TFC, but to honest I never quite understood why European teams were so juiced about him. I’ll echo what was said above, last year he looked very good at times, but this year he didn’t really seem to play to well in the system we’ve been playing. I think it’s kind of interesting that Robinson has had his best games this year when Edu wasn’t with the team.

    I think tactically, we won’t miss him much, but it’s kind of sad to see one of the originals go.

    People usually play better when they have better players with them.
    Being at Rangers might actually reveal some talent that he was unable to display in Toronto.
    Hell, just look at what Beckham has done for Buddle!

    As far as #1 draft picks are concerned, you couldn't complain... much!

    I do think peopel gave him too much shit, he needed to grow as a player, but he was young and gave it his all.

    1) His goal last year at Chicago was just a fantastic effort in a clutch situation
    2) He had the best chant of any TFC player
    “What the world needs is more geniuses with humility; there are so few of us left.”

    Hopefully we'll use this 5 million and get a fuckin DP now...

    If not, MLSE is running TFC like they do the Laffs... They better not take us for some blind $ spending supporters...

    Thanks for the mammaries Edu...
