Collin Samuel Released from Toronto FC

[AB.Trini]

So leh meh see: If Colin and Cornel Glen could team up in the PL at home....dat is real speed for any team oui...

[Jah Gol]

Colin may as well come back home to the Pro League and try to rejuvenate his career

I think a few of our players out there could come back in the Pro-league from a football perspective. But financially it is not always possible. Players must do what is best for themselves and their families even if that means kobo sweat in the English second division.

steups....is toronto's loss. hopefully a european team will pick him up.

well the tfc fans got their wish. let's see who becomes their new hater boy. Good luck Sammy I am sure you will rise again .
I wish he returns to Europe but it would be nice if he gets picked up by another mls team and scores some goals on them.

fuh real

I call that one from the day they sign Robert. Whenever an MLS player sign a big name, we are the first on the chopping block. We need to stop looking at them as a viable option.

I agree but disagree ... he wasn't performing well and the effort was not there ...we could cut it anyway we want....he doesn't have the knack for that scotty has or stern but he has the pace to create problems but he doesn't use it. Men say the reason is because they playing him as a forward and not as a midfielder again more bullshit ....the various teams have used him in both positions including the national team trying to get the best out of him and what they get is a one off brilliant performance followed by 5 below par performances ...we can't make excuses for him....there is a problem and if he doesn't resolve it his career will be shortlived. I'm wondering if his understanding of the game is below par and it was masked by his turn of speed to compensate for his lack of Yorkability lol (this means a an incredible grasp and understanding of the game). I think if he can have get a jumpstart with a manager willing to give him a chance like Falkirk he may have a good chance ....that is the place where he flourished it's worth a look.

I think there's a lot more happening behind d scenes.... Media and PR ppl always help the slackness sound "proper"....
In terms of his capabilities, maybe TFC jus didn't have a coach that wanted to make these boys play proper footy.... When they were losing last yr, who was scoring? ANYONE? NO. So how did this become Sammy's problem? Well, I know they weren't doing any type of shooting drills while holding the record for goal-less games.... Mo was on his celly, and d boys were playing frickin keep-up games! STEUPSSSSSSSS!
How yuh gonna sign a man back in a higher position (Mo, as Dir. of Operations, instead of coach) when he can't even win a frickin game his first season? PLEASE TELL ME.......
TFC just lost a good player, with much potential for the MLS.... And let's see who really scores at all this season....

AMEN! Tek em to Church!

Johnson said in de press dat Samuels WAS NOT RELEASED DUE TO HIS PLAY but rather due to personal issues he had to return urgently to Scotland to deal with.

Despite Samuel's slow start to the season, Johnston says his release had nothing to do with his play.

"I would have kept him. He's still a good player," said Johnston, adding that several Scottish teams will have offers for Samuel once he's ready to play again. "In Sammy's case, he had to go home ... the timing of events is fairly difficult."

good find Palos

Very BIG career move on your part Collin.

1.YOU and YOUR FAMILY come FIRST. f**k away with what anybody say or have to say
2.cause that shit excuse for a football field that yuh was training on 4days a week on would've eventually mash up yuh knees
3.if yuh waited till de summer transfer window to ride out yuh woulda end up stuck on de waiver list and picked up by de highest bidder or bouncing around de shit mls league for de duration of yuh contract(1 yr)
4.yuh free of de mls shackles,special set of laws and loopholes that ultimately work against every player in the league unless yuh name is david beckham,juan pablo angel,lauren robert etc
5.playing outta position in mo johnstion robot formation was slowly and surely killing yuh game
6.St.Johnstone waiting on yuh with open arms hurry up and reach back scotland and do it like how yuh did it at Falkirk

And when yuh ready to beat de pension system in Scotland come back to toronto cause with de trend of 31 and 32 yr old signings recently it seems like all it takes is a couple good seasons/performances in a bigger league and yuh could collect some good retirement money here.

 Is not about mediorce players and this and that...America's League is to develop their players mostly...Is not about entertainment because is a setta hot eye match most of the time...they take old retired stars to spice up the league and dem fellas does look like they in a fete match...Beckham only fooling himself because is all for the money....All the players who go to America does never really develop anything substantial...Is not like their technique does improve...Up to this date with all the MLS and money behind football in America they cyah really produce a creative player...T&T culture is all about creativity and it should be reflected in the football...Is just a bunch of Rhino football...run run run ...all about athleticism....I mean they beat us but that is because we stupid coaches fail to learn the level of fitness we need to succeed at the next level...so at all levels we always behind in fitness...If we could mix athleticism with our creative nature I doh think USA could beat us...BUt cheers to the US though for playing to their strengths ...One thing I love about Americans is they know what they good at and could use it to their advantage.....
