Toronto FC

After a long wait, Lorenzo Insigne has finally landed in Canada but the real work for Toronto FC to move up the MLS standings continues.

It’s understanding that as great as a reinforcement he is, we can’t depend on a Superhero coming in (and doing everything) and we can’t put too much expectations on his shoulders. Where he plays on the pitch will also be interesting as Insigne can be a secondary strike, at left-wing or midfield. “But you need to create an environment for success.” Some are expecting that the Italian could make his debut on July 9 at home against San Jose when the secondary transfer window opens. It’s great that we’re getting a reinforcement of his quality and I’m hoping that he and his family feels amazing (in Toronto) so he establishes himself here as fast as possible. And then understanding that once we’re on the field there are 18-year-olds and there are 35-year-olds and there’s everything in between.

Lorenzo Insigne has arrived in Canada, where he was greeted by cheering Toronto FC supporters ahead of his move to MLS.

Insigne was formally introduced to Toronto FC fans Friday night, a celebration nearly seven months in the making.

“Thank you everybody for coming,” said Insigne through a translator. “I love when we have big signings like this. I love when the community comes together ” “(TFC president Bill Manning) did a great job. “I know it’s going to be difficult because it’s the first time I’m going to be away from Napoli but for me and my family it’s going to be great.” He really sold me on the project and the project is amazing,” said Insigne, who makes the heart gesture as a tribute to his wife.

Veteran defender Domenico Criscito, who is on the verge of signing for MLS side Toronto FC, clashed with journalist Alfredo Pedulla following his article ...

Keep quiet and cry less.” He then blocked the Italian defender, before posting the conversation on his Twitter page alongside the comment: “Criscito, professional footballer, 35 years old, keyboard lion with private messages, so let’s not blame the younger generation.” This report clearly didn’t impress Criscito, who decided to message the journalist about the story. Criscito messaged Pedulla on Instagram earlier today, saying: “I read your article.

Atlanta and Toronto squared off three times during the 2021 season, with the Five Stripes taking a pair of victories and drawing 1-1 in their final Toronto FC match of the campaign. With Martinez back and getting much of Toronto’s attention, this is a prime opportunity to make it three straight with a tally against the Toronto FC side. In their last away match at Nashville, they found the back of the net before halftime while conceding twice, pushing their first-half goals conceded tally to six. He has played in just seven club matches this season, but has three goals and three assists, as his side have lost just once twice with him in the lineup. Their 29 goals conceded so far this season are the second-most of any team in MLS, and their minus-17.7 expected goal differential is a mark that is twice as large of a gap as the next-worst side. Meanwhile, Toronto hopes to end a club-record 23-match run without a clean sheet, and avoid tying an MLS record in the process.

Napoli is such a people's club and he's a hero there and so when you've been at Napoli and you've played at that level that means so much to everybody. We look forward to a big match.” “They're very much led by Martínez, who's one of the best strikers in the league. When he's healthy, he's one of the best on the best players in the league.” “A clean sheet is not mine, a goal is not whoever scores only, it’s the team effort. “Looking forward to that,” Bradley anticipated. “It's important to keep building.” “Never take for granted a BMO night: the support of the fans; you feel like you're overwhelming for the opponents; you feel at home. We knew we had the ingredients, we just had to display it.” “That part's good,” he added.
