This is what their injury situation was on Saturday
- OUT: Erik Hurtado (F) - right knee surgery
- OUT: Jaylin Lindsey (D) - torn meniscus
- OUT: Rodney Wallace (D) - hip surgery
- OUT: Roger Espinoza (M) - PCL sprain
- OUT: Gerso Fernandes (F) - broken wrist
- QUESTIONABLE: Botond Barath (D) - groin Injury
- QUESTIONABLE: Johnny Russell (F) - quad injury
Barath played 90 but Russel wasn't in. SKC only had 17 for that game.
Now here's the board for Friday night.
- Injury Report:
- OUT: Roger Espinoza (M) - PCP sprain
- OUT: Erik Hurtado (F) - right knee surgery
- OUT: Jaylin Lindsey (D) - torn meniscus
- OUT: Rodney Wallace (D) - hip injury
- QUESTIONABLE: Matt Besler (D) - hamstring injury
- Suspended: None
- Suspended after next caution: None
- International duty: Nicolas Hasler (D), Johnny Russell (F), Botond Barath (D), Krisztian Nemeth (F)
Makeshift is the word.
Should be an even game with all the missing players for kc.
With neither Jozy nor Michael playing last night, could we see this?:
----------------------Westburg--------------------
--------Ciman ------ Moor ------ Mavinga ---------
Deleon -- Pozuelo -- Bradley-- Chapman -- Morrow
-------------Hamilton --- Altidore-------------------
For those who havn't seen them, the league is doing training tops with Pride colours
TFC is selling them at the game this week
Check out this tweet at https://twitter.com/TorontoFC/status/1136671594447876096
They are also available at the Team shop online but there are not many left (and they won't arrive before tomorrow).
These have been going like hotcakes with other teams - sold out at most stadiums.

GAME DAY
Great weather for a game tonight - 21 degrees at kick off and no humidity with not much wind. Going to be evening light all game long. Timing is cruddy for a lot of people but if you want perfect weather, this is about it.
Based on the TFC pre-game video, I guess Mavinga is out; and Bradley & Altidore won't be here.
The most interesting part of the lineup tonight is going to be who is in the subs - that will give us a handle on who the brain trust thinks is decent.
If Endoh isn't on the bench for this game, he's really fallen off the radar & should be let go.
GOOD NEWS!!!!

Concessions will stay open to make MLSE even more money...
not complaining though, this is a great idea.
MLS is a tough, physical league, that emphasizes speed, and features plastic fields, grueling travel, extreme weather, and incompetent refs. - NK Toronto
How bad you guys think traffic will be with Jurassic park and raps?
Bad.

"There are some people who might have better technique than me, and some may be fitter than me, but the main thing is tactics. With most players, tactics are missing. You can divide tactics into insight, trust, and daring." - Johan Cruyff
Well if you drive or walk near Union station it will be bad but that shouldn't affect things much out near BMO. TTC won't be shutting the area down like they did for the home games.
And, assuming people stay the full 90 but don't stick around, most people will either be ensconced in front of a TV or heading somewhere to one.

Jays not showing the game afterwards if they don't go to extra innings is peak "Rogers always makes you pay for content".

Assuming Auro and Mavinga are injured, we are pretty much resorted to this lineup:
Westburg
Laryea Moor Ciman Morrow
De Leon Delgado Fraser Chapman
Pozuelo Hamilton
Bono Boyd Zavaleta Morgan is our bench
3 price drops on my tickets on ticketsnow. Tickets went unsold.
Couldn't give em away to watch this garbage team
Boyd starts. I'm not sure if Vanney is spitting in our faces or Curtis'.
