Whitecaps need to evaluate more than just the coaching position 25 Sep 2018 It’s not unfair to say that the new coach will be needing to do what amounts to a full-scale rebuild. And, that might only be attractive to a marquee candidate if he knows he’s going to get the keys to the kingdom.
Herdman sees Canada playing in the World Cup in four years time 30 Aug 2018 “There are parts of this team that I’m really comfortable with and, when I look to the future and I’m projecting out four years time and we’re in a World Cup playing against tough opposition, top opposition, which of the players are going be able to cope with that level of competition?”
Whitecaps embarrassed by TFC in Canadian Championship finale 15 Aug 2018 It just wasn’t that the Whitecaps gave up five. Jozy Altidore was rampant, scoring a hat trick. The Reds were as sharp offensively as they've been all season. But, wow, were the Whitecaps bad. Awful. Insipid.
Unfortunately for Henry, his habit of scoring clutch Canadian Championship goals for TFC continues 8 Aug 2018 On Wednesday night, in the 95th minute of the first leg of the Canadian Championship final, Henry scored a fourth career Voyageurs Cup goal for Toronto FC. Problem is, he’s wearing a Vancouver Whitecaps jersey, now.
Montreal pays price for poor finishing, as Whitecaps rally 25 Jul 2018 In the first half of Wednesday’s second leg at BC Place, the Impact fouled up a golden chance to get a needed road goal that may have effectively ended the tie.
TFC makes it look easy in semifinal triumph over the Fury 25 Jul 2018 But, this year, well, the Ottawa Fury offered very little in terms of fight. After losing 1-0 to Toronto FC in the first leg last week, the Fury were beaten 3-0 by the Reds in Wednesday night’s second leg at BMO Field.
“There’s an Alphonso Davies in every Canadian city” — after uncovering one star player, Free Footie looks to find more 24 Jul 2018 So, when the Whitecaps call Davies “homegrown,” take that term with a bit of a grain of salt. If Free Footie isn’t mentioned in the press releases, if it’s not mentioned in the thinkpieces that will be written about the Davies transfer, well it’s a grand disservice to a great organization.
Toronto FC suspends supporters-group privileges in wake of Ottawa explosion 19 Jul 2018 “The safety of our fans, employees and supporters is the highest priority for TFC. The events which took place in Ottawa last night involving TFC supporters were unacceptable and needlessly put the safety of others at risk."
TFC is efficient; Montreal wins, but is wasteful in front of goal 18 Jul 2018 Toronto FC will be happy with an efficient 1-0 road win over the Ottawa Fury. The Montreal Impact, meanwhile, might not be so happy with its 1-0 home win over the Vancouver Whitecaps.
CONCACAF’s decision to scrap extra time robs fans of what could have been an epic Chivas-TFC finale 25 Apr 2018 But, what makes this final hard to take, well, it’s because CONCACAF just had to go and go all 1970s NASL with the format. It’s ridiculous that a continental club championship doesn’t provide for extra time to be played if the two teams are level after two legs. To go straight to penalty kicks… ugh. Give the players 30 more minutes to try and decide a championship in an 11-v-11 environment.
