Delgado just let him walk by....that was pathetic.

Argh FFS utter garbage.
helluva goal but TFC midfield just let Saucedo walk to a shooting position with little pressure
“Years have gone by and I’ve finally learned to accept myself for who I am: a beggar for good football.
I go about the world, hand outstretched, and in the stadiums I plead: ‘A pretty move, for the love of God.’
And when good football happens, I give thanks for the miracle and I don’t give a damn which team or country performs it.”
-Eduardo Galeano
No Altidore playing 80+ minutes a game, no other player signed who can score at this level means a lot of bad results at least until the July transfer window opens and another scorer “magically” appears....those 4 games during the Gold Cup - 3 tough away games and Atlanta at home is looking at 1-3 points (out of 12), at best, in my opinion —- if we are still within 3 points of seventh place by the July 13th game against Montreal, I’ll be shocked.....
When was the last time a TFC player ran over and hugged Vanney for believing in them? I mean, I Assume Zavs does it on weekends....
I’d say of our players right now:
1/3 look motivated / capable.
1/3 look like something is off.
1/3 look absolutely hopeless.
RSL predictably clogging the centre and hacking TFC players down. TFC has no answer and keeps trying to cross it in from the wing and failing.
Play it through the middle please.
TFC players almost always get scared and stop to look around when they reach the 18-yard box on the attack.
“We have cap problems”
Well that’s rich considering we also have more budget than 90% of the MLS teams out there. Maybe we should get better at scouting ?!?
About 8 crosses (if you can call them that) have gone straight to #15 on RSL.Originally Posted by Oldtimer
At least this ref is calling it a bit tighter than others recently, more fouls whistled & one yellow already.
Its not like RSL is all that good.
But we look like a team playing in sand.
I would say a team that can’t get out of bed. More than fatigued here, I think.
Zavaleta can't head the ball.
Wileman saying TFC should pick up Plata. I agree. Curtis?
Maybe we should tactically adapt to the nature of the league and differing talent levels. The healthy roster of the treble year was clearly an aberration in a league with so much travel and so many differing playing conditions
So we have the ball heading towards their 18 on the right & NOBODY IS RUNNING AT THE BOX. People just pacing without actually running. No wonder people defend us easily, nobody is making moves. EVERY other team in the league at least has forwards who can run - we got nobody but Altidore & Pozeulo willing to do this.
I fell asleep watching this garbage team. Curtis failed not signing anyone.
Woof
Hard to watch......
This is 2018 all over again
More like 2013
Yes, just ugly
After 2-0 I started going back and forth between this one and Pacific FC vs York 9.
Sorry, but that one is a lot more agreable to watch, even if the camera angle is kinda shit.
Vanney often seems like a massive thickhead. I don't think Hamilton has been awful this season, especially compared to the past. But it's obvious to everyone that too much is being expected of him. He's constantly bracketed by two huge RSL defenders so no cross ever reaches him. Or when he receives the ball up front and tries to hold it up, he has average but not exceptional strength, and nobody to lay off to quickly.
FFS Vanney has to be realistic based on the players we have available; should have started with Boyd and Hamilton together up top. I'm not convinced with Boyd either, but they didn't look too awful together vs. DCU. However you could also see that they have almost never practiced or played together. Each of them had no idea where the other was, and sometimes even ran into each other.
And sorry guys I'm totally not convinced with Osorio's TAM deal either; let's see what the final number is when the salary list is released. That's one reason we don't have much cap space. He's often invisible, even when he's not banished to the wing.
Kristian Jack has it right.
No desire on this team to do what it takes to win. The epitome of that is Delgado - I'm done with him. He's bench strength for me right now. He's not hard enough to be a DM, he's not fast enough or good enough with his feet to be an attacking threat. He's a midfield shuttler & simply not good enough anymore.
Like seriously, he's a DM and he GIVES UP on a player going across the middle?!?!?!
And, I'm done with Zavs as a 4th CB - sooner we get another CB, the sooner he can sit.
And I'm this close to being done with Auro - has no clue in defence and 90% of the time STOPS the play dead on the right to play the ball back or post up his man.
Don't blame you, worse than Good or Bad, this team is just mehhhhhh, but today they are awful.
Can Jozy and a formation change get us a point?
He has faith in the wrong players. Maybe he likes the ones who never talk back or complain. That’s not always a good thing.
And who allows our defenders to play that far forward repeatedly, on a huge field at high altitude, when we're missing some of our regular defenders, including Mavinga who has the best recovery speed? Does Vanney tell them to play that way? If not why can't he exert any control over that? Why is Moor organizing that way?
I even saw some of our CBs halfway into the opposing half at times.
I have no clue what a back pass is anymore.
Like Bradley? I don't think that's how he chooses.
