Toronto FC sign Clement Simonin. MLS gonna MLS.
Given the Team Americaness of this year’s Toronto FC, international absences was always going to be something that would cause a problem sporadically throughout the year. Given the age and/or injury history of some of the more important TFC players, injuries were always going to be something that would randomly cause problems throughout the year. There’s a lot of money spent on a few key players, and a definite top heavy...
New Canada kit revealed. And other assorted Canadian bits and bobs.
It’s been a busy week for the CSA’s press people, with all sorts of National Teams related announcements.

Canada gets to play in Toronto! wow! Also, yikes, tough group.
The news came out a while back that Toronto would get to play host to a Gold Cup double header this year, featuring two games from Costa Rica’s group. Very exciting, but just who might be the other 3 teams that would emerge from what was surely a fair, random and in no way rigged draw by Concacaf. Well hold your breath no longer Toronto, as the draw was announced, not shown live or anything like that, oh no, merely announced,...
