Toronto FC’s midfield depth leaves Jonathan Osorio facing battle for starts

Greg Vanney and his magic 8-ball are going to get real familiar over these next couple of weeks. Late last week, Waking the Red wrote about the difficult decision Toronto FC’s head coach has to make in terms of picking a starting goalkeeper.

Well, that isn’t even the toughest positional decision on Vanney’s hands anymore. His biggest puzzle remains how to manage his increasingly deep stable of central midfielders.

This weekend’s game didn’t help Vanney in the least in this regard, as two seldom-used midfielder, Benoit Cheyrou and Jay Chapman, stepped in and delivered excellent performances.
