Reader mailbag: Could John Herdman have stayed at TFC?
Things might have worked out differently for Herdman had he been more forthright from the beginning and offered an apology.
TFC Republic's reader mailbag column is where I answer questions from subscribers about Toronto FC and Canadian soccer in general.
I'll respond to the best queries submitted to me by TFC Republic readers, so feel free to drop me an email at jmo1897@gmail.com. You can also reach out to me via Twitter.
Here we go...
With TFC only having five open roster spots (and one of those having to be used on a third-string goalkeeper), do you feel the team can undergo a "full rebuild" like Keith Pelley talked about? Do you anticipate seeing a lot more movement? What are the most important positional moves they have to make?
– T.T.
As of right now, Toronto FC has 25 players who are contractually guaranteed for the 2025 season.
MLS rosters are limited to a maximum of 30 players, leaving GM Jason Hernandez only five open roster spots to fill.
