    Yesterday aside, Portland's performances have been even worse than the stats suggest. Question marks all over the field, they can't even get Valeri the ball. Have to expect a win at home, regardless of who leads the line for TFC.

    I hope westburg gets another chance this game. Auro and moor should start as well, I'd bench mavinga or go three at the back.

    The Reds hopefully can continue on their path and get the three points. Lots of footy fans will be at the first ever CPL matches down the QEW in Hamilton that day.

    Remember The Man, The Legend, The Goal 5-12-07 and All That #9 Left On The Pitch, Thanks For The Memories !!!

    Some really bad results. We need to pick up 3 points this game before we play a couple tough away games in Orlando and Atlanta within a week. 3-1 for us hoping

    Jozy out for 2-3 weeks. Expect him to miss the next 3 games. The targeted date will probably be the home game on May 11th against Philly

    Portland ...Dallas Away...Columbus Away...Toronto Away...with trips home after each game. Brutal travel schedule. While they rebuild Providence Park.

    Hard to say what happened to Columbus...but we should be looking to keep up the 3+ goals a game run and tighten up at the back. Give Westburg the start until he does something wrong.

    Need to stick with Mavinga. I would play the same starting 2 or starting 3 (depending on formation) every week at this point subject to injuries. All these guys are capable. They need a chance to play with each other every game to build that understanding amongst themselves. There is no set of positions on the pitch that requires a better read of each other than centre half imo.

    Agreed. For all the angst about Ciman, I thought he was improved last week over previous games. I think it comes with the territory that for CB you develop your instincts in tandem with the tendencies of those around you.

    This; his international and club pedigree should afford him the benefit of the doubt, here, in so far as at least giving him a run of games, and, therein, the chance to develop a partnership, before we judge his usefulness to our side.

    Aside from that, he seems like a great locker-room guy and a good person, who's desperate to be there (Canada); really should be making sure we know what we have, before chasing out guys that tick those boxes.

    Jesus logged on and thought I had some phone calls to make... I got the game day wrong.

    Portland coming off a win! Now they're not due. Can't lose today to that shower of shit. Jozy or not.

    Is everyone on a bus going to Hamilton or something?

    Hope Vanney does the right thing and gives JHams the start today

    I actually want to see Boyd today, see if he can connect with Pozuelo. Want Hamilton as well, but we need to see if Boyd has anything.

    How about Chapman with Pozu moved upfront?

    Stupid question I know, but what’s the latest you’d get there today to make sure you get a cape/flag?

    Westberg gets the start or it shows the team has no confidence in him either

    Expect to see JHams and Ayo up front. Maybe Endoh off the bench.

    Edit: I think Oso gets a rest.

    I'm guessing Vanney will play the same 5 guys in the middle Bradley, Pozo, Marky Oso and Deleon, don't see him changing that with Jozy out. I'm hoping JHams up front but wouldn't be surprised if Ayo is there. Back four of Auro, Moor, Mavinga, Morrow with Bradley sitting way deep so almost like a back 3.

    I have a feeling this could be a lot like the Chicago game with us having a ton of possession but struggling to get legit chances and being caught on a counter attack

    I would guess that if you got there for 2:30 you would get one for sure, the red t shirts they gave away earlier this year were still available when I got there 20 minutes before kick off. It's really only the Kia toques people seem to go nuts for

    Yeah, I figured 2:15 to be sure, I always misjudge the timing of these things...
    Thanks!

    I got there at least 30 minutes before and didn’t get a t shirt at gate 4,.

    Cool and windy but at least not rain snow and sub zero like the normal...
    i always wonder - do you take the wind at your back first half or second or does it matter?

    Going to need 3 goals to win this game with Zavaleta starting. Ugh. I'd rather they call up Julian Dunn than play Zavaleta.

    This formation makes no sense. Poz is too far up the field and Osorio is no winger.
