Gian-Luca Posted October 23, 2019 Author Share Posted October 23, 2019 Re: Laryea, post-season TFC are going to need to figure out what to do. He's been the salary bargain of the season, not just for the TFC but probably the entire league - who else on a league minimum salary is playing that many minutes, creating so many goals and scoring game-winning playoff goals? He will not be exempt from the expansion draft as he's neither a DP nor a TFC homegrown player. So they had better protect him and, I should think give him a raise!

narduch Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 I heard he is a free agent. Although in MLS terms that probably means TFC still owns his rights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikmacdo Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 It might be hard to keep laryea, bradley, endoh and benezet. I guess zavs salary could help keep one of them around. Bradley will probably be back on a tam deal. Moor and morrow need to take paycuts imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dyslexic nam Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 (edited) Lol at the post game interview on the field. KJ: “what does it say about this team... [the way they fought back]?” Pozuelo: “We are a f***ing good team. A f***ing good team...” Ha. Edited October 24, 2019 by dyslexic nam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ozzie_the_parrot Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 Not bad for TFC given this year looked very much like an awkward transitional one before Pozuelo got a break to recharge his batteries and they reloaded with a new DP to replace a slightly over the hill Michael Bradley. Only 90 minutes away now from watching all the over-zealous CanPL only types on here try to clamber back on the bandwagon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the few comments in a non-CPL related thread is a back handed insult at CPL fans. And who can blame Canadian fans backing a Canadian team with a few key Canadian players.

narduch Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 Its pretty obvious he has an unhealthy infatuation with tearing down the CPL. I'm happy to see TFC advance but there is very little buzz about this club in the City right now. And I still think their playoff attendance was sad.

Only 90 minutes away now from watching all the over-zealous CanPL only types on here try to clamber back on the bandwagon. The win actually shows the fallacy of expansive playoffs. Top regular season team in one division gets home pitch advantage but is handicapped by being in a knockout match in a salary capped league. It basically made a mockery of NYCFC's regular season record and further dilutes how meaningful regular season matches are for their fans/players and for other teams. It's the slippery slope that has made NHL & NBA regular season action mostly a snooze fest. Add in that the man of the match was the netting that had one side of the pitch locked down, it was MLS again showing it has no limits in how much it likes to torture the sport in North America.

I've seen it from him, you and others all over this board. Ozzie's annoying at times, but so are the posts from others that include stuff like "expect a lecture from Mr Parrot" in threads where he hasn't even participated. I've probably done it myself, to be honest. It's still bullsh!t. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In all seriousness though, to address Ozzie's statement, I will always support guys like Osorio and Layrea when they play even if it is with TFC.

Gian-Luca Posted October 24, 2019 Author Share Posted October 24, 2019 Some credit to Ciman - he was disappointing in the regular season for the most part but in the playoffs he has stepped up & done the job. rightback 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's funny because out of all of the mlssoccer.com guys, it was Charlie Davies who was most adamant that TFC had no chance against NYCFC - at least, not without Altidore.

Club Linesman Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 Vanney putting his rear end on the line. Starting Ciman with a “healthy “ Omar on the bench. Endoh in starting line up. Wow who would have thought he’d be starting the Eastern final. Hopefully Gallardo can come off the bench and make an impact if needed. Go you Reds!!
