Finished a 2-0 win for the Union. Billy T didn't score in this game but almost.
Had a late left foot volley saved by the keeper (Blake is one of the best in the MLS). Tuiloma currently seems like one of the Timbers main attacking outlets. Made the pre assist cross, for Timbers (down to 10th) disallowed goal.
Wonder if he might be better to now move forward into a DM role? For Portland anyway. Did notice he was beaten (well cross just when over his head) for Union's 2nd goal. Might be some defensive errors as a CB that are holding him back from a potential move to a top Euro league, like Nellie did once upon a time from the MLS. Just an observation from 4 mins highlight packages!
He only signed a new 3 or 4 year deal with Timbers late last season, but if he keeps scoring like he is, you'd think is possibility a Euro club would consider making an offer. Age 27. Different era almost, but Nelsen went to Blackburn as a 27 yr old.
