As the regular season winds down and Toronto FC’s biggest games of the year approach, Greg Vanney will not have time for everyone.
Much like LeBron James takes a leave of absence from all forms of social media during the NBA’s postseason, the MLS playoffs demand that Vanney narrows his line of vision and concerns himself only with what is relevant to the next match.
For a man who describes himself as “obsessed with the game” and sees his role at the club in much broader terms than that of a simple first-team coach, that might not be natural or easy.
