    I had the sound turned off for a while, was anything said why Mavinga came off at half?

    Holy f that coulda/shoulda been another goal against.

    Muting Caldwell, I've had enough.

    TFC players standing on top of each other in the Columbus box, otherwise looking a bit better.

    What a difference having a real DM behind Poz.

    add in Poz and TFC looks like a team.

    imagine that. the reigning MVP does make a difference

    it’s more than that. We’ve almost entirely dropped the press, seems to just be on loose balls now.

    i wonder if this is Armas, Armas being overruled, or Armas no longer following the plan he’s been told to follow. We all remember how much Mo interfered in his managers’ choices. Might be Ali has the same profile.

    Oh my god TFC looks passable with the MVP on the pitch. Shocking. Wish I could be as positive as some of you.

    Exactly. It's great that Pozuelo helps, but it shouldn't be as dependent on a single player. Plus much of the problems today were due to crappy defence. No need for that.

    Nelson is killing us with giveaways and poor shooting decisions. Tries to do way too much.

    Bradley can't do 90 anymore - taking off Delgado was the wrong chance.

    Good chance for Bradley at the end there. Another loss.

    Jayden Nelson is so useless right now. He needs seasoning at USL

    I was excited for Nelson as a prospect but I don't know what we're doing still giving him minutes. He's so obviously not ready.

    Better 2nd half but the game plan should have keep the game tight until the 60th min when Pozuelo subs in then go for it. Not go all out from the gate.

    Armas has destroyed a proven roster that finished 2nd overall in the previous season and has the highest wage total in MLS.

    I agree regarding Nelson. Meanwhile Okello and Priso don't see the pitch anymore, even though they looked more useful when they played. Plus Deleon asked to play a creative role. It's nuts. Deleon can be decent when there's a creative AM on the field, but don't ask him to play that role.

    if we manage to get our full team out there, we will start to win games, but it will probably be in spite of the coach.

    armas' tactics do not play to our strengths at all, and actually expose some key weaknesses (highline with at least one slow CB out there).

    it's also worrying that our injury problems do not seem to be improving.

    Bradley looked gassed in the last 10-15 mins. He gave the ball away too many times. Was hoping that he would be subbed off just to expedite Armas' firing. But I think he knows better.

    Just finished the game on tape delay.

    Bono starting again. Auro Delgado and Laryea out of position again. Both starting CBs injured. Two quick goals after some shocking defending from Auro on the first and then getting exposed with Laryea out of position on the second

    They got better when Armas finally put players in their natural positions and looked much better with Pozuelo finally playing but faded fast in the last 15.

    This team, as gets clearer every week, has way too many injury problems to be dismissed as coincidental. I'd argue it's staggering incompetence at this point. I doubt we'll ever know why exactly (for "competitive reasons") but someone (and I don't think it's Curtis) has to look into what our medical staff and coaching staff are doing because at least one of them, and probably both, are doing something wrong.

    Armas is what he is at this point. He's made the same mistakes everyone said he would and hasn't shown much evidence he can learn from them. I don't think he deserves the benefit of the doubt anymore.

    I'm #ArmasOut until he's gone or I see significant improvement and I don't think the latter is happening

    These guys are starting to remind me of Paul Mariner. The more you hear them talk, the more you realize they have no clue.

    Everything is done with an aura of “oh I’m so smart I don’t need to explain that to you, lonely peon”. And yet, when you press, it’s pretty clear the emperor has no clothes.

    Whatever the reason for the change after 20 minutes, it was too embarrassing to mention to a journalist.

    Edit: finally pasted the tweet properly.

    Bradley has never said a word about his own playing time. He is the consumate team player and is having a resurgence this season that is more than welcome. You comments are beyond unfair. How about we focus on the problem. MANAGEMENT. Not our legends.
