VMP FInal Countdown: Number 10 – Jackson
Highest Ranking: 5 Lowest ranking: 17 Average Ranking: 10.73 (Edit: Almost all of this was written before the decision to not pick up his option for next year) Tony: 10. If there exists the everyman in the “Joga Bonito” world of Brazilian football – it must be Jackson. He has the rough tackles of a Dunga, the man marking of a Fat Ronaldo and the white boots of… well the rest of them. But somehow, in this...
VMP Final Countdown: Number 13 – Damien Perquis
Highest Ranking: 6 Lowest Ranking: 26 Average Ranking: 12.79 Tony: 9. Human. Loyal. Wildly unpredictable in the back. Brought in from Portugal via France by way of Poland, Damien Perquis was obviously purchased as the heir apparent for the “retiring” Steven Caldwell. The problem is, where Caldwell was poised leadership and veteran savvy at centreback, Perquis was often scattered, rash and surprisingly quick to temper....
THE STARTING 11: Things Going Under The South Stand
TFC Twitter had a minor breakdown this past Thursday afternoon when the first photographs of the BMO Field South Stand face-unlift emerged.

Was this the worst of the feared MLSE-Argos-pandering come true? Meh… most likely just really...
VMP Final Countdown: Number 22- Jay Chapman
Highest Ranking 14 Lowest ranking 26 Average Ranking 20.89 Tony: 24. Jay “Chappers” Chapman – the guy TFC zoinked away from the SuperDraft in the nick of time. Despite a mere 202 minutes with the big club in 2015, it does seem like if any of the young Canadians (after Jonathan Osorio) are going to break into the side – it will be him. Splitting his time between TFC and TFC II, it’s clear that Chapman has...
VMP Final Countdown. Number 27 – Jordan Hamilton
Hello, and welcome to the first article in the Vocal Minority’s 2015 Final Countdown of all the players that played for TFC this year. Over the next couple of weeks or so, we’ll be counting down from 27 to 1, from Hamilton to Giovinco (why even bother to pretend, the real suspense is for who’s the best non Seba player.) Many thanks to those that submitted rankings, and especially to those that also provided comments,...
