Sucks we gave away the full 3 points tonight. Kerr looked awesome, Oso is coming into his own and we have reinforcements on the way.
Should be a fun final stretch!

There is no way Bradley should have had marginally talented Canadian players like Achara and Shaffelburg on the field late in the game. Achara cost them with the careless clearance in stoppage time. Actually, too many young Canadians on the field late in the game.
However, great game by Kerr, Osorio, and Nelson. Defence still a disaster. Bob Bradley not impressing this season.

Rest in Peace Johnny Bower
I have no doubt TFC has given up the most last minute goals since they entered the league. It's probably not even close.

The Chicago Fire may want to have a word with you on that one

What we do in hockey echoes in eternity...
Too many late subs by Bradley and it cost us 2 points.
Oh well, at least the boys showed some fight in the second half, and we are are going to have serious reinforcements coming in soon.

Extra tough as he has not gotten many minutes this season. Finally gets a chance and has that major error, not a good look
I kinda feel bad for the guy but at the same time, I've never been very high on him. I would describe his play as "meh". Doesn't really add much.
Still think it's crazy we didn't hang onto a guy like Jacen Russell-Rowe when we have guys like Achara and Peruzza on the squad.
However, i'm more and more impressed with Kerr. He's got all the tools. We seem to be seeing the makings of a toolbox.

Perfect description of Achara...."meh". You can put a few other homegrowns in the same category...Akinola, Peruzza, Petrasso, Thompson, Okello, Marshall-Rutty, (ok that's more than a few). I'd love to have Laryea back. You need homegrowns that at least show something, and at the very least Nelson and Kerr are doing that.

Our starting lineup is going to be filthy soon. I just hope there will be enough games left to make a run for a playoff spot.

MAK is someone I have cheered for while he played away. Seems like a genuine dude and I'm pumped to see him play in red again!
I've seen everything I need to see out of Achara and Peruzza. Time to move on.
The rest you listed are solid young players. They can at least be role players coming off the bench. Hopefully one or more takes that next step and becomes a starter (looking at JMR)

And he is off. Not worth having a DP spot, will be interesting to see what the club do with that new free spot.
A tough gig constantly flying back and forth to Mexico to deal with a family/newborn .. his wife probably told him you get back here and leave Canada asap .. and likely good for team too as his head was not into TFC clearly .. good move for both team and player

100%. My guess is he ends up playing much better back in Liga MX too. Being back in Mexico with his family should help.
I feel like it would be wise to maybe hold off on using that DP slot. Continue to build the team (sign some defenders PLEASE), then when we have a better idea of what our actual core is we can target a DP that fits our core/system.
