The 2017 MLS season is almost upon us.
For the first time this year, Greg Vanney and his staff are now taking the players through their gameweek routine in preparation for the trip to Real Salt Lake on Saturday.
The huge sense of anticipation around what this season could hold for Toronto FC will not be tempered, either inside or outside the club, by a disappointing end to non-competitive action over the weekend in Florida.
On paper, as of the March 4 opener, TFC will boast a roster capable of winning the MLS Cup next December.
