    One more goal and our defense is officially worse that under Armas/Perez.

    I’m sorry but this is appalling.

    There can’t be excuses for this level of shitty.

    It looks like Mbongue has passed Perruzza on the depth charts. Not cancelling summer of Perruzza 2023 just yet, but I might not be first in line for tickets…

    The summer of Perruzza could be coming to a CPL team near you.

    Given that it's been years since he was a regular red-card threat, I'm surprised Doneil didn't get more playing time.

    JMR getting frustrated when Kaye didn't turn inwards to offer a short passing option.

    I wonder if we'll try something this complex again next year.

    I’m not a big fan of constant change but I’m increasingly suspicious that the whole organization may need a rebuild.

    I would expect the board will ask tough questions of both Bradley and Manning in the off-season (although most likely both will be retained).

    But it would not shock me if Manning was shown the door.

    It would shock me less if Manning left on his own accord while claiming he accomplished everything he wanted to here (just so he can milk one last gig elsewhere).

    Personally, I’d fire both now but I realize I’m in the minority here.

    Fucken embarrassing, no pride for the shirt this is appalling from so called professionals , if I worked the way these fools have worked the past 5 or 6 games my ass would be fired before I could say bye at my work. Get rid of every single player tese bums are a disgrace along with the front office and the coaches !

    Philadelphia defends like a European team; getting stuck in whenever possible, closing things down quickly. It's astonishing how far off the pace we are. We look like an MLS. 1.0 club by comparison.

    “TFC plays poorly and below expectations”

    Regardless of who has been on the roster, the above rings true. Change my mind.

    It's interesting that we saw the same pattern from Bernie as from Jimenez: seven goals in his first eight games for Berndeschi, only one in the remaining five. It's almost like we bring in talent and then the rest of the team sucks it right out of them.

    The team or the coach?

    Laryea and Criscito came in and played brilliant football, but in the last stretch have looked intentionally restricted and worse for it.

    So, what percentage of minutes did Bob's son play this year? 99.8?

    Orlando has just scored in the 84th min. Looks like Columbus might get knocked out on the last day.

    I don't remember him coming off. He must have at some point, but...

    Jeez. Not a good look.

    7 minutes added time for the Orlando/Columbus game with everything to play for.
    MLS is a tough, physical league, that emphasizes speed, and features plastic fields, grueling travel, extreme weather, and incompetent refs. - NK Toronto

    Orlando should be fined for this amount of time wasting. It’s ridiculous

    The fact that Bradley stayed healthy enough to basically play every minute at 35 is impressive. Now let’s hope that doesn’t have to happen again. Getting competent midfield depth next year is critical.

    It will be a failure if MB is anything other than depth

    I believe that TFC may fly under the radar until at least next summer as I suspect the MLSE board will be preoccupied with the house cleaning taking place next spring with their favourite hockey team.

    Wouldn't be surprised to see Roger's sell their baseball team to MLSE soon as they would fit in with that stable of losers.

    Oh well, at least we had 2017. That's more than Leaf fans can say unless you go back to the days of black and white television.

    2017, 2019 and 2020. need a new spine to fix this team. Goalkeeper, centre back, centre mid and striker.

    Do you actually trust Manning and Bob Bradley to build a roster? Or Bob coaching up the team?

    Not at all . At this point feels like I'm enabling Manning everytime I renew

    2017 and 2018 CCL was the highest peak and its been a terrible ride ever since - 2019 was really an anomaly.

    Agreed. I pray there is accountability for Manning and BB. But I know they'll escape again. It was sad to watch. All the goodwill of the Italians coming, is now down the drain.

    Agreed, but he continually plays. Even in both 4-0 demolitions....

    The arm band must be taken from him. And he better be on the bench. But as much as I hope I am wrong, with BB at the helm, MB is not only staying captain, but will continue to play no matter what. And our guys (other than the Italians) continue to walk on egg shells around MB knowing anything they say can, and will be used against them.....

    Absolutely not.
