    well boys, we have a tactically incompetent coach. We’re playing the high press and don’t even leave a player back. We’re playing the high press against a speed team.

    He’s an idiot, or he’s been told to stick to a specific plan by someone above him who is incompetent.

    It’s absurd that the minute he saw Columbus spread the pitch, he didn’t push us back to the Half. They were clearly going to ru a quick counter and once they scored with it we still didn’t adjust.

    They just announced he’s switched people to their natural positions.

    Good grief. so they’ve clearly been telling him this was a mistake, he just refused to alter it until we bottomed out.

    EDIT maybe Curtis has been telling him to keep Ritchie at FB because of trade interest; that could lead to a cascading series of attempts to make up for it and keep Auro on the pitch.

    Hopefully the experiement in stupidity with Auro as a DM & Delgado as RM seems to be over.

    We move Auro, Richie, and Marky into natural positions and they instantly combine for a nice little attack. Why didn't Armas do this in the first place?

    It’s absurd that it took going two down for him to get it through his skull on the Delgado/Auro/Laryea

    They’re shopping Richie as a fullback and have the wrong priorities?

    He shouldn't be rewarded or applauded for this he should infact be fired.

    It literally took 10 games and a 2 goal deficit in 15 minutes for Armas to realize playing players in incorrect positions is a bad idea. What a shocker. So glad he's our coach. No one else would've thought of that.

    With our current payroll this performance is simply not acceptable. I have never called for a TFC coaches head before, but I am with Armas. In fact, the clean out should go higher.

    The sad thing is that Red Bull fans would call this a major improvement on his style of coaching

    I’d like to know what Chris Armas thought about our prospects of scoring a goal today with this lineup. And ... why it warranted sending so many players forward to be left wide open on the counter. Of course they are cheating to break out when our front six is roundly awful.

    We can blame Zavaleta but the coach should be smart enough to know not to organize the team like this.

    When you read the term sheet today the tactics should be obvious: keep the defensive shape, grind the game down to a halt, and pray you score on a set piece or unlikely counter.

    I said in the other three he deserves until July 7. We all know he’s bad now. When you see you’ve got an infection you go to the doctor right away, let’s not wait to see how it develops. Fire him.

    i am wondering if Akinola and Deleon have a bet on who can miss the net by a greater margin.

    I saw the TFC lineup - I already knew - no Altidore (fight with coach), apparently Soteldo has a major injury, no Osorio, Pozuelo a waste on the bench at this point (let him rest for another 3 weeks), and Bono still playing every game despite the team only having 1 Win in 7 games to start the season and he’s given up his share of bad goals. Coach has already lost this team - solid all around.

    Would have been nice to see a healthy team, but I guess this team is never going to be healthy. GO LEAFS GO

    What are the odds that Bradley was the one who said screw this, everyone play your real position instead of Armas

    Its the hope that kills

    Before 2014, games like this were going to be losses. We knew we were shit & didn't expect anything but that.

    Wish I could go back to that mindset but we got too many decent players now....

    I would say the odds are VERY high that Bradley is player-manager once Armas is fired
