Should Herdman have said that about Croatia? No. Did it serve as extra motivation for Croatia? I'm sure it did. But let's not make it into a bigger thing than it really is. It's not why #canMNT lost. They lost to a superior team with more quality & class. No shame in that.

#TFCLive GM Jason Hernandez today says club is looking to bring a player in and send a player out before transfer deadline tomorrow. Described incoming target as being of a good age with good pedigree and would be a "core starter."

Just an FYI: My final article for @Sportsnet is going to be published tomorrow. And it’s a doozy of a long-form feature on the @CPLsoccer . I’ll tweet out the link when it’s up. Really excited to share it with everyone. #CanPL

#TFCLive newcomer Franco Ibarra. When speaking to reporters today he apologized for his previous comments about not wanting to come here. Said he spoke out frustration and during an uncertain and stressful time.

It's a minor point in the #canWNT situation, but the #canMNT letter's reference to the CPL as a "minor league" was unfortunate and unneccesary. 2 players who just earned their 1st caps got their break in the CPL. Other players (MAK, Johnson, Larin) played in League1 Ontario.

I'm happy for a lot of people at #TFC today. But I'm most happy for Mike Masaro, the club's PR guy. Started with the team in 2011. Wasn't always easy and he's been through a lot. I love it when good things happen to good people, and Mike is a great guy. #MLSCup @torontofc

In post-match scrums, Jozy called out Bill Manning. Said the trainer associated with Seba and who also helped Jozy deal with muscle problems was let go when Seba was sold. Altidore also accused Manning of letting his ego get in the way of this. Jaw-dropping stuff. #TFCLive

So, just looking at Sportsnet's TV schedule on its website, and apparently they will be airing #canMNT 's games vs Honduras and El Salvador. TSN will air Canada vs USA. So all 3 games will air live on major Canadian TV networks.

#TFCLive & Rapids confirm that Drew Moor has signed with Colorado. Drew is a classy guy. Always very generous with his time in dealing with media during his stay in Toronto. It's a toss up between him & Mark Bloom for the honour of nicest/most polite TFC player of all time. :)

A very good and much-needed result for #TFCLive . Bradley will earn the majority of the plaudits for his brace, and rightly so. But I thought DeLeon and Mavinga were fantastic.

To be honest, they got me for a pretty cheap transfer fee. :)

Quite possibly the greatest plate of tagliatelle I’ve ever made. Only 5 ingredients: grape tomatoes, garlic, basil, olive oil, chilli flakes. It took 20 minutes from the time I put to water on to boil to taking my first bite. Don’t tell me you don’t have time to cook.

Michael Bradley has meant a lot to #TFCLive both on and off the field. He’s been an important figure, playing a major role in changing the culture of the club since his arrival. But I wanted to take a minute to talk about Michael Bradley the person, rather than the footballer.

In the pressbox at BMO Field, watching Giovinco score one of the best goals in MLS history that also sent #TFCLive through to the playoffs for the 1st time in franchise history.
