He has improved to the point where he could possibly be a sub next year.

He is... yet... shows forward prowess; even if he eventually loses possession.
A Bob 'The Builder' Bradley work in progress. Seems to be adjusting? For the better?
Still be getting lots of match passes / touches from his teammates; involved.
From the Italians; MBradley included. All others as well.
Unfortunately, unlike JJ.
Unexpected, even if he is a streaky footballer.
Extended season; burned out?
Needs to fight more to/for open space to engage.
Com'on JJ, I am rooting for you!
On JJ, everything mentioned here earlier is likely - effects of an extended season, loss of Pozuelo, not the type of 9 the Italians seem to be calling for, and the three Italians and JJ not used to playing together.
He does seem to have a streaky history but not sure if some of that has to do with whether he’s been used as a 9 or a winger.
That long ball he ran on to a few matches ago and scored with fluid ease… before it was called back marginally offside suggests he’s just not getting the ball in the places he’s best.
Maybe TFC just needs a 'Sharon Fieldstone' for our 'Dani Rojas'?
I have this very strong feeling about Jorginho if Oso leaves this winter.
It just seems a little too obvious.
Would love Jorginho but feel like thats a stretch. He for sure would have to be the highest paid player in MLS to consider it.
he'll be 31, probably would take less $$ than insigne.
the downside would be having to wait til the summer to get him.
I like the ambition.
Keita Balde is an interesting current free agent. 27 years old. Senegal international with 40 games to his name. 3 goals in 23 games last season. Played for Series B side Cagliari Calico . Could be an interesting option

I think if Osorio signs with us again instead of Europe they'll offer Aaron Long a DP deal, if they don't offer Oso the spot.
Watching him play with the Italians he might be worth it. Some guys up their game at each new opportunity.
the way he has worked with Insigne and Bernardeschi, I think he's genuinely good enough to play in a top league. Maybe not a top team but At the same level as Dempsey and Holden before him, certainly.
He might get the chance too if he crushes the end of this season and has an impressive World Cup.
If TFC won't give Oso a DP deal but give one to Aaron F*%king Long, people will riot.
Truer words couldn’t be spoken, Aaron Long as a TFC DP Please stop it
Oh, I won’t disagree. I just think he’s the free agent this fall that all the GMs are drooling over, just because he’s a reasonably consistent centre half who also happens to be American. And our DP signer is American. And wants a CB anchor.
It’s already been proposed by a couple of the American pundits as the “obvious” move to replace Oso if he goes. Seems incredibly low hanging. I wouldn’t take Miazga on DP money (ala Cincy) and he’s a better defender than Long.
Manning has stated that he wants a DP Centre-half?
