    lol@ Shane O'Neil - leave your man wide open as the last defender to step to an opponent who has two defenders on either side of him? Why not.

    Idiots.

    He just stopped running. If we get another DP outside of Bernie it needs to be a 6.

    Our CM has been an absolute black hole defensively this year. Even if we had a guy like Sam Piette on the roster, I feel like BB would still play MB over him for some crazy reason.

    Not sure what this means, but I'd say that's plenty of value already. BMO would be a graveyard otherwise.
    Pressed save a bit early. Would be a lot louder if they can get more involved. Just saying

    Come on man, that's not fair, the dude is averaging two tackles a game, which is respectable. He just has moments where's it's obvious he's a 34-yr-old number eight, not a defensive midfielder.

    Hmmm....a lot to go around that was bad on that goal but in general MB can't keep up and thus spatial awareness is really something that needs to get better.

    From game #1 where FC Dallas drove through our CM in waives it was obvious we needed a CDM. Kaye will be a nice addition, but we still need a CDM. If MB is still out there jogging around in a few weeks, it's over for 2022 TFC.

    Have to think he's going to retire after this year and join the coaching staff.

    I think that was Oso arguing that a) he tripped himself and b) you haven't given us a call all game.

    EDIT: Even-up call there.

    I remember when this ref came in it was all "oooo....look at the Euro based guy joining PRO"

    He's barely better then Petrascu.

    We are creating nothing. Hopefully Bradley brings on Akinola sooner rather than later. He hasn't looked good lately but is all we got.

    I think Bradley has improved from last year, but if we bought Yueill and combined him with Kaye and Oso, we are getting awfully close to that 2016 Oso/Marky/MB midfield that have opposing midfields fits.

    Jayden Nelson with his classic decision making in front of the opposition goal.

    Jayden "takes an extra touch and loses the ball" Nelson



    I get it with the potential but you can see Osorio screaming at him & Kerr to move the ball quicker.

    Nelson needed to give that to Oso. Play the way you face. Your back is to goal, lay it off to the guy who is actually looking at the net.

    You're thinking of the Irish dude. Bazakos is from Phoenix and only ever ref'd in USL before MLS. ANd he's terrible, always has been.

    Have we put a shot on net yet? It's 41 minutes in.

    So much short passing, so little danger. Pull some guys out of position, put a shot on the goalie. Jesus H.

    Nelson is the most frustrating player in TFC history, I think. You can tell there is an elite player there. But, he needs to process the game so much quicker.

    Kerr when he doesn't have to think is pretty good.

    It doesn't seem possible to see a young player make the exact same mistakes every single week and seemingly never learn from them.

    Bradley with the honest half time interview. Seems to want the ball on the ground.

    Not bad, except for the usual brain farts. Hopefully we see the end of that when the rest of the new arrivals are here. Criscito is no joke.

    The buildup is about as good as anyone could've expected with the personnel out there.

    Not surprised by Criscito's start, though, he's always been a high-IQ player. But even when he was arguably Italy's best left-back, he wasn't very athletic. Now at 35, his lack of pace and engine is obvious. Zero recovery speed.
