VMP 2016 Final Countdown #3: Michael Bradley
Kristin: 4 – So weird; I actually liked Michael Bradley this year. Vanney found/he agreed to a new position on the pitch, he didn’t try to do everything himself every game, defensively worlds better, huge towards the end of the season. But please stop taking free kicks. K, thanks. Michael Bradley has been with Toronto…

TFC Player Final Countdown: 2016 Edition
Well sports fans another Toronto FC season has come to an end, and wow, what a crazy season! It feels rather odd to have TFC’s off season begin in December, and well into December at that. Usually we’ve been grumbling into our cups since sometime in October, and staring off into the abyss that is…

Toronto FC vs Montreal Impact: Eastern Conference Final Leg 2 – Aaaahhhhhh!!!
Toronto FC vs Montreal Impact ~ 7pm ET ~ BMO Field ~ TSN Anxiety level: High That’s it really – the excitement, the nerves, the ANXIETY! But at the same time I’m strangely relaxed – tonight’s game (historic, one of the games we’ve longed for the past 10 seasons, etc) is much more than…

Toronto FC vs New York City FC ~ 6:30pm ET ~ Yankee Stadium ~ TSN4 So this is what it feels like to have a successful team – improved standings, vastly improved defence, winning their way into the playoffs and of course that wonderful playoff home win last weekend – this is what the other…

Toronto FC vs Philadelphia Union: Playoff Clinch Take Two!
Toronto FC vs Philadelphia Union ~ 5pm ET ~ BMO Field ~ TSN2 This preview is a weird one for me to write given this is the match that I deliberately miss each year (click here for the reason why if you aren’t already aware), but such is blogger/podcaster life and my other job –…

Toronto FC vs New York City FC: The Big Smoke Takes On The Big Apple
Wednesday, May 18th ~ BMO Field ~ 7pm ET ~ TSN4 Saturday was fun eh? Not exactly what anyone had hoped for, or expected of TFC’s second home game. However, the team will have had little time to dwell on past mistakes with two more games this week against two of their Eastern Conference rivals.…

Toronto FC vs Montreal Impact: Tic-Tac…You Know The Rest – Time For Some Redemption
April 23 ~ 4pmET ~ TSN4 ~ Stade Saputo Six games in, eight points, lowest goals allowed and still playing on the road – who’d of thought that we’d be in this place? These are heady times folks! Seriously, if you’re not enjoying what our Reds are doing at the moment well then I…

VMP Final Countdown: Number 3 – Michael Bradley
Highest Ranking: 2 Lowest Ranking: 10 Average Ranking: 4.11 Mark: 6. Let me preface this by saying that I understand defensive midfielders like I understand house music : I can identify it, but I have no concept of when it’s good. Captain Michael Bradley played sort of defensive midfield/general-esque role most of the season. With five…

Toronto FC vs Seattle Sounders: Can We Just Give Them The Points And Stay Home?
Yay for a week off! Oh wait, Toronto FC doesn’t have the weekend off? Can we umm, take one? This is a difficult game to get excited about given Toronto’s current state. Sure everyone is feeling good about the recent wins and goals, so why worry about a little road trip to Seattle? Well, I’ll…

Toronto FC vs NY Red Bulls: When Is It Time To Start Worrying?
Toronto are coming off a difficult loss, highlighted by a poor defensive effort that is becoming all too familiar, coupled with a lack of finish and creativity. This has resulted in a Toronto FC that over the past few weeks have been doing their best to emulate Dickens. Of late there’s been very little of…
