Toronto FC Shocker: Coach Ryan Nelsen Fired On August 30th, Toronto FC lost 3 – 0 to the New England Revolution in what many referred to as a “must win” game. Within twenty four hours of this sub par performance, management fired coach Ryan Nelsen and his staff. In his post game press conference, Nelsen had openly expressed his disapproval of General Manager Tim Bazbatchenko’s earlier comments that for this assembled group of experienced professionals, the “time of gelling was over,” and the time had come to turn it up a notch. Nelsen openly stated that he did not see the New England game as the pressure situation Bezbatchenko described. He also disapproved of the public nature of such comments, saying that they only served to “aggravate” players. He clearly he saw the GM’s comments as counter productive. lastwordonsports.com/2014/08/31/toronto-fc-shocker-coach-ryan-nelsen-fired/
