    Wrong hand. Maybe hes left handed so he's wearing his watch on right arm. But ring not sure. Spanish don't wear it on right hand.

    He wont get this much attention anywhere else - reminds me of when Defoe came and he was revelling in the attention he (and Bradley) received at the Raps game. He thought it'd be like that everywhere he went and when he realised it wasn't he was gone.

    Isn't there a break for the Gold Cup this year?

    So I guess when new Raptor signings or Leaf signings are brought to TFC games and introduced to the fans at BMO Field we will know that TFC has hit the big time in Toronto and taken seriously like the other 3 big Toronto sports teams lol.

    Team first. I don't mind if he starts, I am excited to see him play, but it is normal for new acquisitions to start from the bench. Send the message that the team is equal. Except for Ronaldo.

    Also the injuries suffered by players who went to the knockout round of the world cup - it is quite extraordinary in the Premier League - almost all of them . Over use.

    I guess they would hope not to use him for the Canadian Championship as well.

    Anyone know what time this press conference is supposed to start? I clicked the link on the TFC website but nothing happening so assuming it has not started yet.

    Poz saying it like it is.

    (Not word for word but)
    Basically saying he didn't go to Saudi Arabia because he feels his family, specifically his wife, wouldn't be treated well.

    That and he doesn't like the soccer played there - stated he had no interest. He prefers soccer at MLS

    Seems like what everyone else aside from Giovinco and I guess Vazquez think as well. Good on him for being honest about it. Now that the presser is done I can't wait for Friday's game.

    Did anyone see this clip? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=75FhOnQ9BXY

    Seems like a Dutch comedy sketch show, and Pozuelo was the target a while back.

    also, very importantly he basically said the soccer is shite there and that he is too young and great still he wants to compete and play.
    maybe when he is 32 he will go there.

    I gotta say TFC/MLSE has the whole "Welcome to the city" thing down pretty excellently the way they leverage their teams and media presence.

    Did anyone understand something he said in the press conference? One of the questions was 'Why did you want to leave Genk?' and his answer was something like 'they always play one guy behind me, I can't keep playing like that.'

    What does that mean?

    I would think they would be looking at squad rotation. Our games for the Canadian Championship are Aug 7 & 14. The schedule around there is very congested.

    Aug 3rd NYRB Away
    Aug 7th Can Champ Away ( Either Vaughan, Halifax, Winnipeg or Ottawa)
    Aug 10th Orlando Home
    Aug 14th Can Champ Home
    Aug 17th Columbus Away
