Where Have All The Goals Gone?

0

The Fire and Kansas City to a 1-1 draw Sunday to the disappointment of the 40 or so traveling fans from Chicago. The Fire had a goal ruled out for offside before Blanco converted a free kick on the stroke of half time. KC scored in the first minutes of the second half and to be honest, there wasn't much more action following that.

Trade Grades: The Best and Worst From 2008

4
The past couple of days got me thinking, this year we've seen so many trades between the clubs. Some moves have paid off and others have been more of a waste than anything. I felt like today was a good day to look back at the moves that have paid off and the moves that [...] Click to continue reading...

Carver Miffed Over Shorthanded TFC

2
Facing a massive player shortage for their next game, Toronto FC head coach John Carver is lashing out at league officials for their refusal to schedule games around FIFA international dates. In all, nine TFC players have been called up for international duty this weekend, a testament to the talent that the club boasts, but also a real problem heading into this weekend's home game against Chivas USA.

Final Result: Toronto at Chivas USA

1

Chivas USA are now sitting in the third and final Western Conference playoff spot after a dramatic 2-1 come-from-behind victory with an Atiba Harris winner coming in the last minute of stoppage time.

The Galaxy's winless streak is up to 10, but Chivas USA stopped their own winless streak at six when Harris' shot squirted through the hands of Toronto goalkeeper Greg Sutton to break the 1-1 deadlock.

Half Time: Toronto FC-Chivas USA

3

Two teams with shaky defenses=open, entertaining game.

The teams ended the first 45 minutes tied 1-1, but both could and probably should have had more goals than that.

Toronto FC opened the scoring when Rohan Rickets found a streaking Jim Brennan on the right wing with a piercing ball.

MLS Reserve Division Leading Scorers

3
The reserve division stats on MLSnet are incomplete for both 2005 and 2007; the pdf's for those seasons only go up to a certain point in the season. The former is only missing the final four games, but the latter is missing a huge chunk of the season, so I had to go through each match report and add up things by hand.

Revolution-Toronto FC analysis

1
The New England Revolution nearly accomplished something their cross-town sporting counterpart failed at last night – claiming a victory in Toronto.

The Boston Red Sox were thrashed to the tune of 11-0 by the Blue Jays at the Rogers Center, while miles away at BMO Field, the Revolution saved themselves from similar embarrassment with a solid 1-1 draw to the Reds. Click to continue reading...

Twellman, Revs Net Draw

4

The Revolution still left Canada without their first win within the borders of our northern neighbor, but did manage to get a point against Toronto FC on Saturday night.

Taylor Twellman scored the 95th MLS regular season goal of his career to give the Revs a first half lead, but Chad Barrett struck back for Toronto in the second half and the Revs left Canada with a 1-1 draw.

Things that are good

2
1. Toronto FC finally won a game -- not only that, but it was an away win! And a game they really shouldn't have won at all. They were missing a bunch of players, and they had a grand total of two shots on target -- but one of those was the only goal of the game, a gorgeous free kick by Chad Barrett.

Weekend Recap: Eastern Clubs Dominate

1
A short week was week 20 in Major League Soccer. Only four games of action and all were won by eastern clubs. Some wins were bigger than others while some clubs continue to stumble. The biggest story had to be Chicago's come-from-behind win over New England. The best game of the weekend for sure had a [. Click to continue reading...

Rapids Sinking Further

The Colorado Rapids woes continued as they lost Toronto FC at Dicks Sporting Goods Park. Toronto hadn't won a game in 2 months. The Rapids had only won once in their last 10. But Toronto was missing players (Amando Guevara, Laurent Robert, Marco Velez, Carmelo Lobo) forcing them to start some reserves. Click to continue reading...

Today on the road down five starters down and a mile high you saw a side that has until today found a way to loose despite great opportunities at victory.But today Toronto held on a mile high against a ten man Colorado that played the final 12 minutes short a man.

Makeshift TFC gut out a victory in Colorado

Wow, a road victory, a honest to goodness road victory. Toronto defeated Colorado 1-0 today. A great goal from Chad Barrett very close the end of the first half and then a rollicking, nail biter in the eventful second half were the key ingredients.
Watching TFC as visitors on television has become a battle between hope and history. Click to continue reading...

Cunningham Shipped to Dallas

0
With big striker Danny Dichio set to return to the lineup from injury and the recent acquisition of Chad Barrett, Toronto FC has deemed Jeff Cunningham expendable to the club's needs, trading the 11-year veteran to FC Dallas. The deal, announced yesterday, mercifully ends his tumultuous 15-month spell with the club, with TFC settling for just a third-round pick in the 2009 MLS SuperDraft in exchange.

Star Looks at Open Roster Spot

2
A little over a week ago, I wrote about a couple options that the Wizards had inside the league in regards to using their recently acquired allocation money to get another striker. One of those is off the table, as Chad Barrett is now in Toronto for the rights to Brian McBride. That does still leave two of my potential trades on the table. Click to continue reading...

In a year when the Eastern Conference has owned its Western Conference counterparts in intra-conference player, Real Salt Lake has done its part to try and stem the imbalance.

After wins against New England and Columbus, RSL has added Toronto FC to its list of Eastern Conference conquests with its 2-1 victory on Monday.

Brian McBride traded to Chicago Fire

3

The rumors were true. Brian McBride is going to join the Chicago Fire. Toronto FC had the right to McBride, but McBride made it known that he wanted to play near his hometown which is right near Chicago. The Fire sent forward Chad Barrett to TFC along with future considerations in order to get McBride.

Fire-Toronto Make McBride Deal Official

Finally. Chad Barrett is now with Toronto, along with some cash, draft pick and future considerations for the allocation spot for Chicago to sign Brian McBride. Glad to finally see this deal get done! Aren't you? Of course no McBride in Chicago until after the Olympics. Still I think Fire fans will be fine with that. Click to continue reading...

Fire 0, Wizards 0: A Supporter's View

0

Ninety minutes, Triple-digit temperatures and no goals.

A scoreless draw had to be expected when the Wizards and Fire took the field on Sunday. Aside from the sweltering heat, neither team was going to be taking many chances in this key Eastern Conference clash. The tie leaves Chicago chasing New England and Columbus atop the East and leaves KC trailing the playoff pack.

RSL PREGAME

3

Here we go again, as the cursed month of July continues: Tonight, TFC takes the field against the woeful Western Conference leading Real Salt Lake. It comes as a surprise that Salt Lake are no longer bottom feeders, as they have been throughout their history, but coming in at 6-6-6, they are not world-beaters either.

Being that it is Monday, I'm not sure if this is included in the MLS free preview that was going on this past weekend but RSL & TFC are at it in Utah tonight. And Chad Barrett is in this house for Toronto...how strange would it be if he played before any formal announcement about the McBride deal was made? Click to continue reading...

Millson of the Globe and Mail is reporting that Toronto is about to get Chad Barrett from Chicago Fire in return for Brian McBride. He also suggests that a trade for Cunningham is in discussion.

McBride Trade's Sacrificial Lamb is.....

Chad Barrett aka the poor man's Wayne Rooney. At least that is what Goal.com is saying this morning. But since there is no writer attributed to this story I'm wondering if a) no wants to put thier name on it for fear of pulling a Trecker, b) whoever wrote it knows they shouldn't have written it or if c) it's even true.
