East Side Stand Up

Toronto FC went into Real Salt Lake, much like they did to Seattle and home to DC United, except this time their opponent had the chops to cut them down and take all three points. Running through this fixture, depth was front and centre as the loss of Jonathan Osorio and Jackson could not be overcome and the question is raised on whether Ryan Nelsen got his selection right. It was a humbling loss, and one that brings supporters back down to earth that this team is still a work in progress even though the Reds now have bonafide stars.
