    Same here Maybe Forlan will be here during Peņarol's game vs Sporting, meet some family members at the match and be a spectator (One can dream)

    This Forlan speculation isn't going to end anytime soon. I just want simple yes or no answer from him or TFC FO if he's coming or not.

    Molly Ringwald was at Hughes Room recently.

    Maybe it's because I was Farmer Ted's hanger on when that movie came out, but I always thought Jake was kind of a douchebag. And the dirty blonde was hot.

    Paul Attfield at the Globe is not going to be very happy with whoever told him Forlan is signing. Attfield has egg all over his face.
    For some reason, I get the feeling it was either Bierne or Cochrane. Probably the latter as he's trying to work the new faces to his advantage to eventually take over TFC.

    Since there's nothing to be happy about TFC's current team, I'll add more fuel to the Forlan to TFC Fire. Newell's Old Boys have recently sold there top striker Ignacio Scocco to Internacional of Brasil. Newell's had a great run in the Copa Libertadores this season and Scocco lit it up internationally and during the Argentine Liga. I don't know if there's room for Forlan, or if they plan to use him with there new signing, but we'll see.

    Wow, what a day yesterday. First the whole Forlan/F5 thing, then the team plays with a National audience with NO other sporting event to compete with on the night and they shit the bed and lose to the last place team that played a man down from the 24th min...

    This team is the BEST team in the world......at letting the fans/supporters down.

    uh, nobody was watching. TSN2. 10.30pm. This team. That opponent.

    Was watching some of Dodgeball before the game came on and they do a funny running gag about how the dodgeball games are on cable television everywhere! on "ESPN 8, the ocho".

    It could have been safely forecast that TFC v Chivas would be the most meaningless game in pro sports history.

    The ratings for this game probably were less than 25K.

    Unfortunately I was one of the 25K.

    I think last night's game was the cure for hitting the F5 button. Even signing the likes of Messi wouldn't help this team right now. Suddenly, I'm becoming very apathetic regarding all the speculation. Roll on 2014.

    And it isn't going to be the DP signing. What last night showed is how many pieces we really need. Probably at least a left back (maybe a right), one quality winger, and a central midfielder for sure. We need those before considering a Forlan imo.

    He's got that right. We're so bad that people won't even mock us or hate us... they just feel sorry for us.

    Yeah me too. First TFC game I have watched beginning to end on TV in a couple of months.

    It felt like detention or something. I was watching the clock so I could turn it off.

    I wonder if TFC's management team has to decided to upgrade from Wikipedia to Football Manager for obtaining information on players:

    I fell asleep at halftime actually and woke up a few minutes before that goal.

    Forlan would still be a great signing for us. Look at it this way, in exchange for O'Dea ($560k or so) we can get both Forlan ($335 towards cap) and another Laba ($200) because combined it would be the same hit to our salary cap. That would count as our 2 new DP's. Then add 2-3 other players (winger, left back, midfield, whatever) and we'll definitely have a very different team.

    It can be done. I'm optimistic. Get the reinforcements, fit the team together, and then finish strong to give us all hope for a great new season. That's the best possible scenario right now.

    The shitty part of this transfer window is that we had the impression that TFC had a few targets identified. We knew there were multiple trips to South America to speak to players. It seemed as though we were just waiting for the window to open to snap up a few players. That appears to not be the case at all.

    Have I hit rock bottom or do the rest of you get that moment of hope when you come to this page hoping to hear about some great move? It's ever so brief, but just for a fleeting second I have that sense of hope that we have signed someone big or make that someone adequate. Tell me I'm not alone.

    A number of high profile managers actually use that Football Manager for scouting purposes, including Jose Mourinho. It's probably the most comprehensive list of players anywhere. I'm sure a bit more scouting goes on though than just finding them in the game
