This guy Bradley is too old school playing da old way to win which was long bombs .. today we see best teams run ball up field with precise passes from midfield to attackers .. of course da Italians are upset we are playing 80 and 90s futbal .. i can't see this ending well for Manning/Bradley .. quite frankly they should already have been let go

"We defended well" - Bob Bradley.... The way I saw it; we invite pressure all game, were lucky to be in it, and then finally broke down at the last minute.

When you have players like Berna and Insigne at your disposal, the game should be more free flowing and attack minded. Don't sit back with 37% possession while giving up 16 shots and then tell your stars you defended well....

Yeah they brought wrong 2 guys in here if they want to play long bomb futball .. to me i hate it .. da style of play bores me .. i want to see speed and skill from midfielders .. but we don't have those types we got defensive minded plodders so we never setup Insigne or Bern with any good chances

I sent out the warnings last season that Bradley is an absolute clown of a coach. He doesn't use the proper structure for today's football. His usage of his players is abysmal. Manning doesn't get off scott free for this either, the team has virtually no depth. You need players in the midfield who can complete 10 foot passes moving up the field. They're going to lose us the two Italians through their monumental incompetence.

On the positive side, thanks to the stupid boneheaded decision to have the majority of our games on Apple+, I haven't watched many of our games other than the highlight packages. Way to grow the game, MLS.

I'm convinced the only reason Bradley is going to survive the season is because MLSE doesn't want to have another Babcock situation of paying a guy to not work for them. We're stuck with this moron and this dysfunction until his contract expires, whenever that is since I can't find any details on his contract status.

TFC must be losing fans all over. Not only is the team awful, the in-stadium atmosphere has also fallen I've heard, and with the games being difficult to find on TV I imagine a large portion of people are ignoring the team.

I've already got Netflix, Disney+, Crave, and Prime. There is not a snowball's chance in hell that I'm going to subscribe to another streaming service that doesn't interest me just to watch this train-wreck of a team.

My friends who are Serie A and Premier League fanatics and thought the MLS was inferior quality were starting to accept the possibility of an entertaining product on North American soil. Going exclusively to Apple+ has reversed any good from that 3-4 year period. They and I just don't care anymore, and that's a shame.

I’ve got the exact same ones and am ignoring Apple+ for the same reason. It gets to be too much at a certain point.

MLSE in general has been in shambles in the Corporate structure, unfortunately. There is a lot of dissonance within due to the trickle-down effect. It's insane how TFC was inspiring all the other MLSE brands to move up and go for the championship to this state.

So Boob Bradley is sitting Bernadeschi, their leading scorer, because of a “coaching decision” and not disciplinary reasons. Who are you fooling Boob? You were embarrassed by the things that Berny said, mainly because he’s right, and your inflated ego couldn’t allow you heed his advice, so you put the team at an extreme disadvantage. Get this clown outta there or the season is doomed.

The truth hurts.

Bradley is a trash coach and he's attempting to burn the franchise down on his way out (and Manning is enabling him).

I want him to be replaced but to be honest, I find this extremely disrespectful for a coach with his pedigree.

This is exactly why the situation needs to be resolved sooner rather than later. I hope they're not waiting for "Fire Bob" chants to echo through BMO Field before Manning acts accordingly.

It's extremely disrespectful, but it is intentionally so. A moron could see that he overstayed his welcome weeks ago, so what does that make Manning?

This is a very slippery slope which is why everyone is calling for Manning's head too.
