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.
