I know Jozy and MB are tight, so that's nice, I suppose.

Couldn't hurt having better chemistry between Bradley and Jozy.

Between Mix and Jozy, Jurgen's body is probably hanging by a phone chord in his house right now.

In those World Cup lead up specials this summer produce by Roger Bennett there was an episode where they're stretching and Bradley is trying to sell Jozy on coming to Toronton.

Looked like it worked.

I like it.

Bradley and Altidore is a good thing.

And Defoe's sorry arse deserves to be at Sunderland.

TFC has sold Defoe for in the neighbourhood of $11 million. Altidore is indeed coming back to MLS, but still has to go through allocation...

During March to Brazil thing at a training camp Bradley was trying to convince Jozy to go to Toronto. Kinda funny it actually happened

I probably should have read the thread before I posted
