    I also maintain that losing Vasquez & Giovinco in January was unexpected & put this team seriously behind in prep for this season. If we somehow were to get through this season, make the playoffs and keep Vanney, next year would be significantly better out of the gate.

    Most importantly though:


    This team, from the top on down to us in the stands has never gotten over Delgado's CCL miss.

    It haunts us.If we had gone into that game & gotten beaten bad, we would not be in this funk. I'd not change us getting that close for getting beaten bad but we have not handled that miss well.


    Until we achieve something (and unfortunately the Voyageur's isn't enough), or turn the squad over or change managers - we will remain in a funk.
    Great post. Spot on.

    It was a rhetorical question.

    I don’t think we’re catching Atlanta or NYCFC. And unless Philly goes on a losing streak, we probably ain’t catching them either. 4th place and a home 1st round matchup is what TFC should be gunning for. For me, that’s realistic.

    I agree. Moving forward we need to try to win every game. No more sitting guys. Surely they're professional enough to play the remaining games without 2 week breaks. If we make the play-offs with at least 1 home game I'll definitely support Vanney staying on.

    Currently in 9th place with Orlando in the lead 1-0 against SKC - we will have a game in hand at the end of that one.
