I’m guessing we have the same lineup as the one against the Impact but insert Gallardo for the Shaff and Oso for Deleon.
Red Bulls 5 points ahead of TFC, but I see this game as quite winnable against a critical Eastern Conference side. It won't be easy though.
2-1 for TFC is my hope.

My wishful thinking lineup
Westburg
Auro-Omar-Mavinga-Morrow
——-Fraser-Bradley——-
Gallardo-Pozuelo-Osorio
————-Jozy———-
Agreed. Delgado for Fraser has been a change I've wanted to see for a quite a while now, I see no reason for Marky to be constantly starting right now.
I thought that Vanney was trying to implement at 4-3-3, so I think a more likely formation would include:
-----------Westburg----------
Auro-Omar-Mavinga-Morrow
--Osorio--Bradley--Pozuelo--
Gallardo---Jozy---Shafft/Endoh
Vanney might wait another match to introduce Gallardo.
It's so nice to be excited about this team again and this game in particular.
Really curious about the starting lineup.
Like the ideas put forth. By everyone. I would like to see ciman in the lineup somehow maybe rb?
I’m looking forward to a warm MLS Cup Final in LA November 10th. I think that this squad can compete with LA once we get some consistency and avoid injuries.
Pozeulo was in mid season when he came. Gallardo is in preseason.
And just a reminder - Gallardo is a right sided forward. He's not a Shaff replacement.
Just got this from TFC. Hard enough to get down to BMO especially for weekday games already.
No Parking Available at BMO Field on Wednesday, March 17th or Saturday, March 20th
Plan your travel to the match accordingly as there will be no parking at Exhibition Place for the games on July 17th and 20th due to major conferences and events. As a result we highly encourage the use of public transit and suggest leaving early so you can be at BMO Field for Kick off.
On a TFC-related note now: I’d expect to see Gallardo in the lineup for Wednesday.
I'd sit Pozo or play him as a sub.
He's going to burn out real soon if his minutes are not managed better.
He's played too many mins IMO if he needs to last till end of season
Burned out by the playoffs is no good. Hopefully they learned from past experience with other players. Unfortunately where we sit in the table adds pressure just to get into the playoffs. I could see them sitting him more if we had some kind of cushion between us and the playoff line.

Of the two games, Saturday would be the more likely game to rotate players.

Petrescu is the ref. Expect a fiesty first half with a lot of rough tackles followed by a few cards in the second.
