Vasi Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 Its amazing what can happen when you have competent management and coaching. You compare this years regime to last years at TFC and it is night and day. As a TFC and Canada fan, I am very grateful for Bob the Builder. I feel confident that he will get the best out of most of these Canadian kids coming out of TFC. johnyb, dyslexic nam, Trois Reds and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bison44 Posted April 10, 2022 Share Posted April 10, 2022 Hmmm, I remember last year after 3-4 games it was "lets play the kids" and we were all gushing over Singh and Priso. I am super surprised that Kosi and Petrasso etc are doing as well as they are. I watch as much TFC2 as I can stand and he didnt jump out to me as the next kid to make the jump. Kudos to him thought and to the staff for playing the kids, hopefully it'll keep going and he can keep banging in wonder goals all season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here (watching TFC2), I thought he was good for TFC2 last year, but not 'first-team ready'. Figured he needed another year at TFC2. Always good when I'm mistaken and a player makes the jump (and is ready for it instead of it being too early) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toontownman Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 Going to be an important addition to the u20s in June. Loving his form. Not surprised he is a bit shaky in defence as he is still learning that side of the game. He is a bit more gangly than JMR but just like Rutty is growing a beastly frame and has good strength and athletic potential.

Gian-Luca Posted April 25, 2022 Share Posted April 25, 2022 Awarded with "Pass of the Week" by Matt Doyle, who also goes on rip Bradley & Pozeulo (without naming them) https://www.mlssoccer.com/news/miami-get-it-right-with-campana-new-beginnings-in-sj-and-dc-reynoso-runs-the-sho "Things went really, really badly from there for the Reds (the final score of 5-4 belied how one-sided this game actually was). NYCFC, playing their fifth home opener of the year put the pedal down and just started ripping the visitors apart and raining goals – some from the break, others from the press, and all at least partially because TFC can not cover ground or win the ball in central midfield. Everybody gets a free run." toontownman, Dominic94 and TOcanadafan 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greatest Cockney Rip Off Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 Far from the finished product but a nice looking player. Hopefully TFC see him as a midfielder and not a fullback as he looks better in the midfield. toontownman, Corazon, El Hombre and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He isn't looking out of place at all imo, definitely lots to improve on but looks like a low key solid MLS level player. He will surely be a big player for the U20's next month, assuming TFC let him go. I expect him to be a squad player as @Dominic94says, once others return but he has done himself and his development no harm. Ivan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floortom Posted May 9, 2022 Share Posted May 9, 2022 I get that he's still young and developing, but it's hard for me to tell what type of midfielder he is or what his strengths are. He's had a few nice moments but has generally just been in the background. Compare that to kone who, even when he's bad, you can tell tell the type of player the kid is. With Thompson I have a very hard time projecting anything toontownman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mtroads Posted June 23, 2022 Share Posted June 23, 2022 Solid defensive game from him tonight, but he didn't offer much of anything going forward. Seemed like every pass that he got, he sat on before turning back and passing to Bradley or a CD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BearcatSA Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 He has logged quite a few consecutive starts for the club but his play on the ball has been undermined by too many easy possession losses. As we hit the dog days of MLS and with a very experienced LB now on the opposite side of the backline, it might be a good time to give this young guy a rotational break: see what Marshall-Rutty or Chung can do. toontownman 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toontownman Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 (edited) Still gutted he wasn't allowed to go with the U20's think he would have been a difference maker. Also wonder if he is doing better at RB/RWB than he would have done in his natural position or whether he will move back up the pitch into midfield down the line.
