    They should be up by far more, we get one back and it is a whole different game... or not. LOL

    We are back to vintage “give it to Bradley” mode as he sits 5 feet off the backline. Completely stifles the attack.

    Gallarado is finished, it did not work out, time to cut bait and move on.

    What tonight illustrates is our lack of depth, both at striker and defenders

    I agree, give some of the kids a chance to play and rest the regulars. Nothing to loose at this point.

    If you completely ignore the first 43 minutes, we did well

    I think it's more of a lack of strikers right now with Jozy, Ayo and Achara out. No midfield presence with Oso and Piatti out. I think the defenders that started this game are decent enough.

    Pretty much any type of winger is useless for Vanney. This is the first game he has started 2 wingers but with no striker up top is wasted.

    Pryzbylko is the type of striker we really need. A different style then Ayo. A tall striker with an ability to put in a header or the ability to find that space in the box to knock in a loose ball. I did see at 42:30 Richie head butted him in the ear and he didn’t waste time to push Richie over. Still looks angry.

    Yes, the real score should be 4-0, TFC extremely lucky being down just by 2, lol.

    Not sure the CB's have been that bad actually.

    Vanney got the tactics very wrong - needed an outlet. Plan was speed on the wings against a narrow diamond. Problem is Bradley can't take pressure anymore, Delgado is having a poor game when on the ball & Gallardo was useless going forward while being unwilling to come back.

    And most importantly, he stays healthy.

    That was the most brutal outplaying of TFC I have since the Houston game where they rested the starters for the CCL final. Philly was soooo UP for this game, their level of energy was an order of magnitude greater than TFC's. We'll have to see if TFC has the pride to respond the second half.

    Similar to what NYCFC did to us in Orlando, press us hard, consistent and physically. I do think there have been fouls that we no called but we need to be able to handle that press.

    Don't get why Auro was taken off. He's suspended next game, so he's going to get rest regardless

    Why would you replace Auro when he is suspended next game? Why not replace Laryea who could use a rest?

    Bradley retreats so far back to pick up the ball that it takes 20 beauty passes to get through the press. He also has none of the recovery speed to win the ball back. He's still the man and I have massive respect for him but it's STARK the difference that Osorio makes back there.

    What about NYCFC earlier this year in Orlando?

    Almost this whole season we were desperately short in the forward department.
    We need 2 forwards coming in this winter, one DP quality and another one just below Ayo in quality.
    Don't forget Achara looks unfortunately like he's another "glass man", plagued already by too many injuries over his young career.

    Both players not off for a rest.

    Delgado was getting beaten in the middle & Auro was ineffective & getting blown past.
