    Very aggressive, not sure why he did that.

    Maybe he sees Orlando as beatable with our normal non-anchor system, but it seems a hell of a gamble, especially as the kid was playing well and moving us forward.

    4 BMO Field beers? Did you win the lottery?

    We won't get a clean sheet until they end the clean sheet challenge. They always jinx it at halftime.

    Priso already missed - big fat hole in the middle

    He'd begun to creep forward and help offensively towards the end of the half. Maybe Bradley saw something in how poorly Orlando reacted to the #6 hole being empty and decided we could use another scorer.

    He may figure Orlando doesn't have the team speed to transition quickly, period. Otherwise, doesn't make sense except as a bold gamble to overpower them, which seems unlikely.

    This is exactly what I have been saying. Jimenez is not someone that can lead the line. He'd be great with a partner that can hold up the ball and link up well. The kind of player that occupy defenders and create even more space for Jimenez to find space in the pockets between the lines.

    For a fleeting second Alex Bono thought he was Alisson.

    Honestly, Kosi might be the best of the kids.

    Man... Thompson beats two guys and both strikers are inside their cover... and he pulls it back.

    Ouch.

    What a find Lukas MacNaughton was. Perfectly executed shoulder tackle, makes Orlando put it out for a goal kick.

    Yes Torres the BMO Field pitch is very nice, why don't you lie down and relax for another 10 minutes?

    Good, Rothrock has potential. Not that Jordan doesn't, but he's not really a winger.

    Rothrock played really well at TFCII last year.

    Interested to see what Rothrock can do with more than 2 minutes of play time. I liked what I saw from him last year with TFC2.

    This is the last time he can play on 4days

    Bad choice, Ayo. Shit. Jimenez isolated his man and could've gone behind there.

    Paging Red CB, the howmanyeth player is that to see the field for TFC?

    I missed that Rothrock already played previous TFC I games?

    That's more like it.

    The fact that this TFC doesn’t get railroaded is testament to Bob Bradley

    Has Ayo grown more or is he just bigger than I remember?

    I hope that Ogthedim will let me say that MacNaughton is dreamy: sees that Akinola is in a tight spot, immediately gets in position to receive an easy backpass & relieve the pressure.

    He definitely looks wider. In a good way.

    He's always been a bit big, but he definitely looks a little pudgier than I remember, but maybe it's because I'm comparing him to Nelson and Co who are super slim guys

    Orlando may lead the league in dramatic bullshit. Guy shoves his man right in front of the ref but Oh, they are so aggrieved. It's practically Shakespeare.
