After a hard-partying Canada Day weekend (up north with no TV or internet - sorry for the lack of updates), and Toronto FC's nail-biting, first ever road victory in Salt Lake City, TOTAL TFC will be hitting the road with the Red Patch Boys to watch our TFC put out the Chicago Fire for a second time!
A hot topic in the minds of TFC fans is Samuel vs. Welsh: who should start on the left side? It's amazing how many people have finally come around on their thoughts on Welshy, and if you listen to the podcast, you'll know that I have always supported him. As far as Welsh being relegated to the bench in favour of Samuel, I believe it is a good move. Welsh wears down quickly due to his lack of size, and is much more effective in the early stages of the match, and fades quickly to the point where he is rarely effective during the second half. Putting him in after the 60th minute allows Welsh the opportunity to take on fatigued defenders, which helps to make up for his lack of physical strength, and makes his speed even more of a factor. Watch for big things out of our little number 7 off the bench! I think he'll be good for a goal in Chicago this week!
