In this post game video blog I take a look back at TFC’s surprising short-handed victory over Columbus that saw just about every Toronto player exceed expectations in a 2-0 result. I also take a look at some suprisingly creative tactical innovations/selections from Mr. ‘4-4-2’ Nelsen that worked quite well and I try and put this unprecedented nine points – two shutouts – two road wins season start into some sort of historical context.
Toronto FC crashes back to earth after a rough 3-0 defeat in Salt Lake City Saturday night. In this post game video blog I take a brief look back at the match and some of the apparent weaknesses the loss exposed (Bloom and Orr come immediately to mind).
I also try to explain why we should not jump off tall buildings after just one game nor should we be exalting after the first two results either. Finally I try and explain how the loss shows how the DP signings and new players coming in can only partially make up for seven previous seasons of gross ineptitude – and that there is still a ways for TFC to go.

Post game video thoughts after Toronto FC defeat the New England Revolution away in Foxboro on Sunday past. In this post I take a look at the game, the most important metric to emerge in the past three games, the composure at the back plus Laba and his HUGE upside.I also take a look ahead at the useless friendly again Roma on Wednesday, the potential controversy ahead if TFC signs Max Urrutti from Argentina and I ask why Toronto FC feels it should not make a serious run to sign a world class American footballer as some sort of favour to American Soccer.
In this post game video blog I do my best to try and not get too excited or wrapped up in all of the symbolism from TFC’s victory in the pouring rain last weekend versus Columbus. And I try and focus on what I think is the true message to take from this game – that a winning team WILL reignite the passion so long dormant for this team.
How a single win just might start changing the narrative for Toronto FC.
Toronto FC sometimes makes even people such as myself feel at a loss of words.
Toronto FC finds another way to lose late, blowing an early lead to lose 2-1 in San Jose.
