    How is that not a yellow. If Hamilton gets that he’s through on goal

    Delgado's mark initially... just lets him get free, simple lack of commitment. You have to follow through on marking your guy.

    Hold shirt all game, foul off the ball... no cards. Is this the York9 game?

    Agreed. Auro needs to attack that ball though.

    This is a joke of MLS officiating. Poz has already been hacked 3-4 times.

    Did the whiteboard before the game say “play hospital passes to Bradley”

    Delgado 2 defensive blunders so far. The goal and the near miss on the shot by Blanco.

    Worst TFC half so far in 2019. Other than the lucky goal, and Mavnga’s great defensive play, they have nothing.

    Can't remember the last time we were so thoroughly outplayed in terms of possession and control of the game at home. Even last year with our awful home record we generally played teams even, just with too many mistakes and bad moments to get results.

    Since the 25th minute they've just run us over in midfield.

    What a frustrating half.

    Vanney did not field the right formation IMO and Delgado is terrible

    Terrible half. Delgado worst player on pitch once again.

    Id like to see Laryea on the pitch and push Auro up if needed.

    I don’t get the plaudits from the TSN crew for Zavaleta. He whiffed on that clearance which fell to Valeri. If Valeri has potted that VAR easily could have called it a goal (a la Hamilton / Chapman earlier this year). He’s also made a few other bumbling decisions but hasn’t been punished for them.

    Now that said, I have some small amount of sympathy in that our defending from the fullbacks and mids has been awful (Bradley excepted).

    What the hell was Auro doing at Tuiloma's goal. He's standing watching him have a free shot rather than putting the player under pressure. The guy is a complete waste of money. He couldnt defend if his life depended on it. I know he was signed more as a wingback in our previous 3-5-2 lineup, but even going forward he offers very little. Rather than hit the byline and put over a telling cross, nine times out of ten he turns back and plays the ball into the middle. It really bugs me watching Betashour perform week in week out for LAFC with the knowledge he could still be in our first team, providing some balance to the right side of our defence.

    Also Hamilton has to do much better if he is to have a future with us. After his brilliant cameo in the last game today was his big chance to show he belongs in first team squad, but he's been invisible the entire first half. We really need substantial investment up front to replace Giovinvo or were going nowhere this season. Altidore just can't be relied upon to stay fit, and its clear Vanney doesnt rate Boyd? So why did we buy him? Just another another wasted salary from Ali Curtis who is rapidly proving he is not up to the task.

    This should be three easy points today before a testing road trip. Portland have been abysmal this season yet were allowing them to run this game and on the first half alone look the better side out there. Its just not good enough for a side that really should be one of MLS top clubs right now. instead we are wallowing in mediocrity, something MLSE seem content with, with all their teams

    Poz is playing everywhere, and the entire midfield are sleepwalking...that collision involving Bradley speaks volumes about how confused these players are. Hamilton cannot be the lone forward, his first touch is awful. He plays better when the defenders are concentrating on the better guy (Altidore). I predict A 3-2 loss

    Bradley is just a janitor today, thank god he's playing because he's cleaned up so many bad giveaways on our part.

    I swear to god if Delgado wasn’t a fringe USMNT player Vanney would have moved on a year ago.

    Take off the beer goggles Greg!

    Portland just a different class today. They are playing with so much speed on both sides of the ball. Toronto on the other hand is just walking the ball up the pitch and making alot of backward passes...

    Also Delgado looks lost. So many bad giveaways in the middle of the park.

    Getting out played by the second last place team and missing Jozy highlights the deficiencies in this team. We are missing creativeness, attacking energy down the wings. This is exactly what Ogthedim is talking about in the other thread.

    This is horrible coaching today. Delgado is your worst player today. Keeps him on and doesn't go with 2 strikers to relieve pressure.

    I don't see us playing for a draw at all. We're just playing poorly, can't create anything meaningful.

    FFS this is pathetic. Again Auro invisible as a rightback. What a complete and utter waste of money this guy has been. We are simply not putting enough pressure on the Portland players. Were standing off and giving them all the time and space in the world.

    Again Vanney gets his subs wrong. Instead of pulling Hamilton (although he hasnt done much granted) he should have added an attacker and gone 4-3-3 rather than stay with a formation that clearly isn't working. Delgado has done nothing all afternoon and clearly the right sub was to pull him and put Akinola on in support of Hamilton. Even his second sub he leaves Delgado on and hooks DeLeon instead. Unbelievable. I'm starting to think Vanney has run his course and is rapidly losing the plot. Maybe it was Giovinco, Altidore and Bradley that won us the title in 2017 rather than brilliance form the coach

    I’m not sure what Auro is supposed to do. Without a proper winger in front of him he’s always going to be tight to his man when receiving the ball. And runners up top have been non existent. It’s the same thing Poz is looking at right now

    What we are watching, is pre Giovinco TFC. Without that dynamic, creative, constant threat, this team really has nothing. Altidore alone, is an Altidore waiting for an injury...he tries to hard. Poz needs decent players around him, and we simply don’t have that in our current complement. Aside from Osorio, Altidore, Bradley, Poz, Mavinga, and perhaps Morrow, all others are sub par MLS caliber

    Put pressure on Manning and Curtis as they've seriously dropped the ball this off-season. No wingers, shaky defense and a thin offense once Altidore is out.

    Pozo spinning around in a circle looking for someone to pass to just about sums up the game for me, or maybe Boyd doing his best Big Ben Spencer / Bambi impression. Are we sure he’s actually a professional footballer? He could just be a Boyd impersonator who also slept on Vanney’s couch.

    Mavinga has been good today.

    Ssh since 2016.
    Worst game at BMO I've been to.
    Boring.
    I have talked to many people that were early years ssh that no longer have season seats. If the soccer was like this before I can see why

    This had a Mariner feel to this game.
