"It looks suspicious to me" says the announcer, which is like saying "I can't see it, but somehow I believe it."

That isn't conclusive to me.
If he has to watch it thirty times, it isn't clear and obvious.
Might have been the arm, might have been his side, as it went between them.
He rewound that again, and again, and again.
Needs to be timer on all replays. If it takes you over a minute, it isn't clear and obvious.
Gavran has already saved more penalties in one game than Alex Bono saved in his career here.
When was the last time we saved a PK?
I don't think he's made it worse. I think they had already given up. We hadn't won in 10 straight before that.Originally Posted by barticusz
We then lost our starting keeper for the season, Richie, and our best center half.
He's not a manager, we all recognize that. Getting upset with the academy coach who's an interim is a bit pointless.

osorio on top of not being able to defend in the box now adds handball...badly taken by bakrar and gavran saves it on his mls debut...stays 1-0
Crap taken penalty but the technique to save what was provided was good.
Its not like NYC is all that good.
Is it just me, or is everyone else also hearing a repeat of the commentary for the first few seconds when they show a replay?
"unable to find Sapong"
More like Sapong is unable to find
Yeah, watching Joao Klauss pick up a long, high aerial ball in mid air, track it into the box and finish last night for St. Louis reminded of what a talented target man looks like.
Get Prince on for Sapong after the half.
Yup, knew that was going to happen - needed to get into the half only down by 1 - couldn't hold it out.
Of course. Just shambolic defending.
Yep I do too
They scored in the first 90 seconds and the last 90 seconds. Fantastic.
Even a Gavran penalty save can't save a shit team like this. Worst TFC team in history. Shambolic defending.
I wonder what our bookies handicap our games as? The spread should be 3.5 goals the way this team plays.
Same old, same old in the box. Guys shifting deeper and deeper and more compact in the zone, but no one actually challenging the ball and going after it.
WE ball watch, we react late.
It's not just bad coaching (although clearly there's been a lot of that), we also have signed players with massive holes in their games, scouted badly. I don't think Petretta has ever blocked a shot in his life.
Ah well, at least Gavran stopped a penalty. Small favors, but he's deserved a shot for a while.
I wonder if our front office actually watches other games and realizes how far off the standard two-thirds of this roster is? WE don't pass clinically, we don't shoot clinically. Our movement is slow, players off the ball ball watch.
Worst TFC team ever, I think I have to concede at this point, even worse than under Mo.
So far my list of things I care about for this game are doing OK. Franklin though will have to learn to cover for a RM that isn't really a right mid.
Like please no one on that back line should be back next season unless Herdman is a miracle worker . How guys like Roasted and O’Neil and Petretta and Mabika ever made to the pro ranks is mind boggling who actually watched these guys play and said, “ yup these guys are definitely pro level material , these guys are utter garbage. No way in hell any of those guys would start on Forge of the CPL not a chance !
The highest paid LB in the league coming off at the half.
Good lord, Sapong is terrible. He's running ahead of the man with the ball and he has no idea he's supposed to be running to a danger spot in the box, to the posts or the spot. So he just aimlessly wanders ahead of Bernardeschi waiting for a ball that won't come.
So, that was a thing that happened.
Our players never leave their zones, even when pressure is required on the ball. They're so defensively static teams can basically walk through them.
And.... there's a great example.
EDIT: We're so bad, we provide samples in real time for almost any criticism.
Wow didn’t realize that makes it even worse . I’m of Italian background both parents from Italy and very close to Naples where that embarrassment of a player Insigne is from . I’m also a big Napoli fan and was a big Insigne fan but not anymore . To TFC please no more Italians again never an embarrassment to all the hard working Italian Canadians that spend their hard earning money on this team .
dunfield is never gonna get another coaching gig is he.
