#CFMTL injury update: - Giacomo Vrioni is available, but a start is still unclear - Caden Clark and Hennadiy Synchuk both suffered a knock against TFC. Clark was able to train but Synchuk did not, they are probable and doubtful respectively.

It’s only been like 120 minutes and I’ll definitely go into more detail on the pod tomorrow night, but Dante Sealy is doing for Petrasso what Ruan did for Campbell last season. And I absolutely love it #CFMTL

Fun fact: Dante Sealy and Fernando Alvarez actually spent time together at the Dallas FC academy before eventually making their way to #CFMTL, could be an interesting dynamic. (also new merch looks TOUGH)

Calling new #CFMTL signing Fabian Herbers versatile seems like quite an understatement… given how fluid Laurent Courtois wants his formation going forward, this seems like someone particularly suited to fit in well

Marco Donaldel has returned to the club as four new members of the #CFMTL coaching staff were announced today. The others are Kobié Johnson (who was Courtois’ assistant in Columbus), Chicago Fire 2 head coach Ludovic Taillandier, and Bologna Academy goalkeeper coach Vincenzo Benvenuto

I’m LOVING this four-back from #CanWNT/#CanXNT with a heavily rotated squad. Even without a breakthrough, the attack is looking a lot more connected in the final third
