    Caldwell has been tossing some jabs in the pre-game, pretty critical over all the decisions the club has made since 2019 from all aspects... He all but said Manning needs to step up and organize a winning club and culture or the club needs to bring in people who can lol (how I interpreted at least).

    Looks like they got Bill Manning to come on in the pre-game to have a chat lol - lets see how that goes

    Aaa...I see Caldwell is still butt hurt about not being brought in to manage the team after Vanney left.

    And that was a lot of "meh" from Apple - focused on "what manager do TFC need"

    Gotta get atleast a point against the actual definition of an average MLS franchise.

    Yep! Played there in the academy, under Dunfield no less (as tsn would have us believe)

    Ranjitsingh inspires no confidence here.

    Some in the academy say Kosi was actually a natural goalkeeper and will be playing there next week.

    Have to be honest, Bernie’s future is in the middle or nowhere.

    I mean, watching this it’s hard not to argue our #1 priority by miles should be a striker.

    Edit:,Kaye has done dumb shit like that at least 5-10x this year. We’re lucky he hasn’t sunk us multiple times.

    Bring on Coello. Kaye is playing himself into being a MLS reserve player.

    No worries. We'll use that 3rd DP spot on our RB. 🔥

    A lot of the problem here is the FB's don't trust themselves to move the ball forward so it goes back...that and Servania & Kaye are not good enough on the ball as a pair.

    Yeah, as much as I like Laryea, it’s hard to look at what we have on the field right now and say “we really need to spend more money on a RB”

    Kobe actually does a pretty decent job and is young.

    Insigne has given up on Terry Ball after 45 minutes. This is gonna be a process and half.

    He was injured but I think he's not happy with the lack of impetus by the midfield & the CB's - the passing map's heaviest arrow looks to be Mabika to our keeper.

    Well, that was mediocre.

    I’d say the 442 is making it easier for us, but there’s no confidence. The number of back passes, it was like Terry was back out there playing.

    Not enough energy in transition. Mabika is a good defender but both he and Kaye occasionally look like Bambi on ice.

    Halftime discussion point: is MAK a worse signing than Mista?

    Yeh, nobody really moving all game -both teams relied upon transition to a certain extent but RSL move the ball way quicker. No real playmaker on our side and no real threat from Sapong (who had 2 decent chances)

    This team is still really bad. Going to need some Italian magic to win this.

    Yeah they do. It sort of feels like a unique style for MLS as well. Haven’t seen anybody else play like this. Although I’m struggling to describe what I’m seeing in certain respects.

    Probably 2 magic moment bits because O'Neill looks not good enough.

    That & I counted at least 3 "odd man rushes" moments there against us, including a 2 on 0.

    They seem to play through the outside and mostly rely on their central midfielders to spray the ball wide, clean up messes and protect their CBs.

    They have a lot of team speed at 1v1 ability though. That makes it fun to watch. More like the profile of their players they’ve decided to bring in makes it interesting.
