Media coverage for this team is definitely growing up.
Nice to read a good piece focused on the opposition for an upcoming game.
"There are some people who might have better technique than me, and some may be fitter than me, but the main thing is tactics. With most players, tactics are missing. You can divide tactics into insight, trust, and daring." - Johan Cruyff

Real Salt Lake likely to be without Morales and Espindola for tomorrow's match against #torontofc
Also, Grabavoy still rehabbing a knee injury, won't be playing against TFC: http://www.sltrib.com/sports/ci_14987743

MLS ratchets up focus on winning CCL
It's going to be a tough match for TFC tomorrow despite the fact that RSL has won only 1 of their first 5 matches. With TFC playing on two days rest, at that altitude, against a side that will be very motivated, I'll be satisfied with a draw...
on their boards it mentions that there might be a few rugby games played at rio tinto right before our game.....so the field might be a bit worn and there might be lines on the field...i guess we will see
I'm getting fed up with Paul James.
Does he ever slag off Vancouver? And his implication that last year's team was technically better than this year's just shows how thick he really is. We had players last year with more skill, but that doesn't guarantee that a team is technically better.
Can Vancouver come into the league already so he can fuck off from whence he came?
I don't really like it but James is accurate in his assessment of this team. TFC work hard and seem to be getting committed to a system which is fine with me if the results come. But James is right whe. He says that we don't have a whole lot of technical skill and it doesn't look pretty most of the time.
Re Paul James: Gargan & Cronin a 4??? Compared with Garcia a 5 and "without any errors"???
it's nice to know that the MLS wants to push for the CCL
we're light years behind mexico though.
how hard is it to go 'oh well they've got this massive youth, academy, reserve that they have' though really?
i'm not expecting any MLS team to have a chance of winning the CCL for a good ten years. don't get me wrong, i'll be THRILLED if we win it.
but it is damn nice to know that the MLS is finally starting to take that tourny seriously.
TFC lack panache and quality. Really?
News Flash, Paul. You can say the same thing about the entire league most nights.
Hard to think positively about MLS the same week Champions League games are on?
Steve Sandor's scene-setter another good piece by him.
I have found Paul James to be very unwilling to let go of his personal preferences and biases when writing. I respect his knowledge and experience but I see more and more why he's had run-ins and conflict with the various areas of soccer in North America.
MLS is a tough, physical league, that emphasizes speed, and features plastic fields, grueling travel, extreme weather, and incompetent refs. - NK Toronto
Whitecaps' temp stadium that they'll use in MLS for a couple months is going up...

The article says the Caps are negotiating to play in the renovated BC Place stadium for 15 extra years.. wow... guess there goes the SSS idea.

LOL.
Well one thing we can be happy about is there is a system in place. It will take a few seasons for them to be able to add players who can play the system and be technically better. If they can upgrade a couple of players a season, things will be ok. Right now we just have to deal with it.
Now, god forbid if Mo is still at the helm next draft, he will, if he is smart find better technical players that can fit the system. Easier said than done though.
