    Nah, I genuinely think this is "you're on first team money, show me why you belong in the first team" time. And since most of them probably want out from the bitter culture, they're not biting or trying any harder.

    That may be true, but how awful it must feel for Prince and Cash to sit on the bench and lose minutes to Hugo Mbongue and Themi when they are clearly not MLS players right now. I'd be questioning why I even signed.

    They'll have been told. They're not going to sit them without telling them why.

    Jesus. It just gets worse.

    Jeez. That was a hell of a goal.

    EDIT: And Jesus H, this commentary pair is abysmal.

    Yep, sure seems everyone 'playing not to play' here next season.

    Gavran really does look like real potential.

    Commentator can't tell Mailula and Owusu apart. Never a good look.

    Cash and Prince look decent as a strike duo. Our midfield is sooooo slow though.

    Watched the first half. Couldn’t be bothered to watch the second.

    - Their penalties were BS. We still deserved to lose but whatever.
    - Management of youth prospects continues to be ridiculous. Hugo: not ahead of his peers in the league for TFC2, doesn’t stand out in MLS. Gavran: plays well for TFC 2, shows signs of being able to adapt in first team minutes. See how this works?? Stop sending raw projects to the first team!
    - I realize playing Bradley and VV is at respectful but they both have zero legs.
    - Charlotte FC is a collection of odd balls and freaks. Lattanzio looks like a guy who imprisons people in his basement.
    - Which brings me to my next comment, perhaps he can kidnap Dunfield so he doesn’t come back.

    Hmm... glad I slept through that.

    Best part of the game thread is jloome "they're not biting"

    You have to be really foolish to think a future possible employer isn't going to look at your efforts in these games.

    I suspect these guys are in for a rude awakening if they expect the same $where they go next.

    They probably think high pay protects them from being cut loose and aren't even considering it. Dunfield has mollycoddled them into thinking this is just bad luck or someone else's fault.

    I suspect we'll have at least 12 open first team roster spots next year. We could potentially bench the fucking lot. And that's before we even consider potential rule and cap changes.

    And no one else is coming in for them at this level.

    Speaking of mollycoddling.... I look forward to no longer seeing a
    "Oh poor Terry" tweet out from the bloggers.

    He's not good enough & I won't feel sorry for someone who has risen coaching ranks not due to competency.

    As for Manning, he won't be gone but if this De Vos rumor is legit, and it seems plausible, then that should leave Manning fully removed from the football operations side of TFC. Then it will be Hernandez & De Vos responsible for continuing our ruination.
    What's this De Vos rumor?

    Agreed. Let’s be honest, his track record is poor enough to justify being removed as an intern, which is really saying something. His performance is objectively worse than Bob’s.

    People saying he might be Technical Director. No idea if true but very possible with us doing the "TFC becomes CMNT 2.0" experiment*


    *Experiment that is in no way geared to garner attention and to increase ticket sales riding into a WC on Canadian soil.

    His performance is objectively the worst of any manager that's lasted longer than a game or two in MLS. He makes Marriner's 2012 reign look like Pep @ Man City 2022.

    And for me. But I did have a lot of fun watching the 2nd half of Chicago Miami. Another loss and they are done for me it will be quite a joy.
