    Its the freaking B team. You put Osorio & Mavinga & Morrow & Auro in there (notice I'm leaving somebody out) and we are up by 2.

    the stadium holds 70,000+. That would translate to 21,000 which is still above most teams in the league.

    Are they cosplaying as empty seats?

    Why on earth is Vanney playing such a piss poor line up tonight? Atlanta might be champs but they’ve been very weak of late and tonight was a great chance to pick up three valuable road points. I mean Layrea, Zavaleta, Fraser, Morgan and Akinola all starters?
    Why no Morrow, or Osorio? I get you have to rotate sometimes but so many in a winnable game? is he sending Curtis a message for his failure to making a signing either up front or in defence?

    As for Cutis’ bullshit line about doing a lot of legwork but teams didn’t want to sell. I don’t buy it. If a team doesn’t want to sell then it’s wrapped up with a phone call and you move onto the next target. It doesn’t take any leg work.

    im also concerned he doesn’t see the need to replace Séba as a worry. Jozy was always going to miss large chunks of the season with injury, so is he saying Akinola, Hamilton and Boyd are good enough to go with up front? It’s becoming clear with each game Pozuelo is a replacement for Vazquez but is clearly not in the same class as Giovinco. Three sitters we’ve missed tonight and they don’t think we need support for Altidore. It baffles the mind.

    Stiffed by MLSE again. Why do Toronto sports fans put up with this lot. In other cities they’d be hounded out of town for their sheer apathy and incompetence.

    That was really nice between Akinola and Chapman. Good chance.

    Shit man, TFC started this game off pretty well, but dropped off considerably. And them coming out flat after half time. Will Osorio and Morrow help them wake up?

    To each his own, but I’d rather hear the chanting than Caldwell. “Magnificent, terrific, tremendous”.

    Not sure why this has become a sticking point here.

    Two changes in this side probably changes our entire look right now. Chapman, Morgan, Fraser, Layrea aren't bad players.

    Yeah parts were extremely empty at kickoff when I noticed it, but filled in very nicely.

    TFC players definitely have the wrong boots on for this surface.

    They just noted it's Atlanta's lowest-ever attendance. We should be proud 8)

    The side not on camera appears to be more full than the side on camera though.

    Fix your fucking shoes TFC. That could easily have been a PK.

    Poz was never intended to be a like for like replacement for Gio. Poz never has been a big goal scorer. Compare the stats between the 2 players for the first 5 games they started for TFC and tell me what you find. I do agree though that we need more firepower upfront when Jozy is not playing.

    If Martinez hadn't done the unconvincing two-legged topple that could've been worse.

    Ah ha Luke Wileman "Boyd looking for his first goal" as he loses the ball behind the midfield line.

    Simply thank you for the sanity .....when I go to every game I’m buying a ticket to watch the best line up out there , it’s PRO. Sports , they’re getting paid well to do what rest against a team they should beat . Love how Vanney decides like last year some games aren’t worth giving ALL the effort . We’re all Canadians we love excuses . If they don’t want to win , I don’t want to go .

    Good to keep him offside but jesus christ Zavaleta should have been tracking Villalba instead of waiting for a whistle. That's some rookie level bullshit. Very lucky he was actually offside.

    About ten thousand Atlanta spouses right now: "Well I don't get it honey, it went in, right? This is the pits!"

    EDIT: "Oh well there you go, they allowed it a few minutes later. I get it."

    We've moved Bradley up into proper midfield and Fraser is taking his place in front of the backline

    Are we confident with that prediction, we shouldnt of let in the 2nd goal, and we had Osorio and Morrow put on, this just isnt good enough and its going to get more difficult with our future games, as other teams are discovering our gameplans
