And that means we still have no proper defense.... when with 1 man out it's that much of a change.

These commentators know they can not talk sometimes right?
Edit: aaarrg
big applause for tfc great altidore who enters for new england...servania is subbed out, the extremely weak kaye stays on and a couple minutes later he doesnt follow his player and its 0-2
Servania getting subbed out before MAK is a joke, right?
our team looks phenomenal tonight, im so impressed
Servania and coello were both on yellows. So I understand one of them needed to come off before Kaye. But it’s not ideal.
Mid table team with Midfield injuries struggles against top team.
Funny how the commentators are trying to play off like this is some chess game of Bradley vs Arena when it’s so one-sided.
Barely mid table...
I don’t think it would make a difference. Bradley would be chasing shadows and Osorio hasn’t covered himself in glory this season.
Hedges absence is what’s killing us. And otherwise, we’re playing a team that has played better this season and will be top of the table if they win here tonight.
11 games into the season you are what you are.
Injuries' are part of the game. No depth? That's on management.
I’m so sad I didn’t renew my season seats
Team looks like a really exciting team to watch
All I want is to be entertained and excited at a game and although I couldn’t make the game tonight (which I am also sad about) it seems TFC was both exciting and entertaining at the same time
There's a lot of good ideas on attack - implementation... Not so much
It's shocking that with 2 center forwards and both the 2 Italian DPs on the field we can generate so little clean chances.
tired legs down two goals only two subs used...had to get rutty in there at the very least
Ok step 1, fire Bill Manning
We're just too slow at everything. Moving the ball, closing down defensively, primarily.
Every time we have a player in the f inal third, their marker is all over them, instantly. They give them no respect, no yard to beat them or any of that nonsense. They just make it difficult for our guys every time.
They get into our end and quite often the player who should be marking the ball is ten yards off his player when the switch occurs, or the overlap.
It's egregious. Against NYFC, when their players selfishly tried to just run through our midfield, we were fine. Against a team that uses space we are too slow. And I don't think that's biology, I think it's training.
Didn’t look like a team, didnt look like we were playing for pride …didn’t look like we cared.
Hedges not playing was big.

Yep. Done with Bob at this point, it’s time to move on.
I’m sorry but this has got to be sacking territory before it’s too late to salvage
I’ve been a big BB apologist but I think I’m on the fire BB bandwagon now.
It's still not working. He does not have them playing for pride, the badge, running through walls. They looked barely interested tonight.
There's still no cohesion in the offensive end. WE got a win with a solid midifeld against NY, but whatever they're trying to accomplish offensively, it's just not working.
WE look like everyone is freelancing and looking for a runner, as if none of the exterior, off-the-ball movement is by design, to accomplish something tactically like creating an overload or a weakness in the middle.
It just seems purposeless.
There was a note in that story about Bradley and Arena in which Cherundolo talks about how executing Bob's system in LA means no room for error, no mistakes, precision passing and movement.
But it's not happening here. Maybe our guys are just too old and set in their ways, and he's trying to teach old dogs new tricks. But it's just not working.
Right now, we have as much chance of losing every game as winning it. we can lose one player defensively, Hedges, or one player offensively, Sapong or Insigne or Bernadeschi, and we will have problems.
Solid point here.
Almost everybody says TFC had it's best match of this season against NYFC
Well... they had the "best game of the season" against a team which had a very weak game... TFC was let to have a good game.
But agaist teams who play at least decent? Not much cigar so far...

Johnson made some great saves. Could have been much worse. What a mess.
I’m not convinced LI and Berna was wide forwards in a front 3 is ever going to be a winning formula. Feels like 1+1=1.5
Neither is particularly fast either. Just doesn’t feel as dynamic as it should be given each of their qualities.
Agree with everything you said and exactly this was killing me all match.
It's 100% on Bob. Deathwatch time has begun.
Not one single player had a good game, except maybe Johnson.
Terrible performance.
Win next week or sack BB.
Don’t look now but the team that gutted their roster and started the year with zero meaningful signings is now even with us on points, has a game in hand, and has won 3 straight.
On paper we should trash them. But momentum all on their side at the moment.
At first I thought we didn’t ever recover from the pre game loss of Hedges… but we were just so slow and without anything much worth watching. We have to amount to more. That was pretty dreadful.
FWIW, in the stadium, it was obvious they were working hard.
The "they did not care" thing is bogus.
We didn't move the ball fast enough. We had no real answer to their defensive pressure.
