Shane O'Neill - Won't play vs. Crew O'Neill is suspended to face Columbus on Wednesday.
Impact The center-back received his fifth yellow card of the season when playing off the bench in the 2-1 win over Austin last Saturday, though his absence shouldn't affect many fantasy decisions since he's been playing off the bench of late. O'Neill will be eligible to play against Colorado on Sep. 21.

Henry Wingo - Picks up injury ahead of halftime Wingo was forced off in the 45th minute of Saturday's 2-1 win against Austin due to an apparent injury, according to Walking the Red.
Impact Wingo didn't make it out of the first half Saturday, with the midfielder having gone down with an injury. His exact diagnosis is still unknown, leaving a return date up in the air as well. He has started in his past two matches since joining the club, so this will be something to monitor, as he looks likely to continue seeing starting time once fit again.

Impact Mabika replaced Nicksoen Gomis in the 66th minute. With just 11 touches, he completed three passes and made four clearances. Having featured in 11 games this season, with only two starts, Mabika will aim to make impactful cameos to secure a regular starting spot.

Richie Laryea - Assists against Austin FC Laryea assisted once to go with zero corners and one chance created in Saturday's 2-1 victory versus Austin FC. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 63rd minute.
Impact Laryea set up Deandre Kerr's goal in the 30th minute with a well-placed cross. Laryea also completed a dribble. Having featured in only seven games this season, starting six, he has already contributed to three goals.
SEPTEMBER 15 • ROTOWIRE
Jonathan Osorio - Nets against Austin FC Osorio scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Saturday's 2-1 victory over Austin FC.
Impact Osorio gave Austin an early lead with a thunderous strike in the seventh minute. In addition to his goal, he created a chance, made a tackle, and registered a clearance. This was only his second goal of the season, his first since scoring against Kansas City in March.
SEPTEMBER 15 • ROTOWIRE

Impact Kerr doubled Toronto's advantage by converting Richie Laryea's cross in the 30th minute. Kerr also created two chances and made a tackle.

Sean Johnson - Concedes one against Austin FC Johnson registered six saves and allowed one goal in Saturday's 2-1 win against Austin FC. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 74th minute.
Impact Johnson made six brilliant saves and a clearance, preventing over a goal with his efforts, but ultimately conceded to Owen Wolff in the 75th minute. Johnson has started 20 games this season, recording 56 saves, including 12 saves in his last three appearances. However, his last clean sheet came against Philadelphia in May.

Kevin Long - Out Saturday Long (hamstring) is out for Saturday's clash with Austin, according to Walking the Red.
Impact Long is surprisingly out due to a hamstring problem. It's not clear when he picked the issue up, as he went the full 90 in the final match before the break. Long will hope to be back sooner rather than later with a busy September on the cards.

Alonso Coello - Active with youth side Coello (hamstring) played 45 minutes with Toronto FC II, per Walking the Red.
Impact Coello is back in training and now got some match action with the second team. It's a great sign for his continued recovery from a hamstring injury, an injury that has proven to be far more serious than originally feared.
SEPTEMBER 10 • ROTOWIRE
Sean Johnson - Struggles in loss Johnson had three saves and allowed three goals in Saturday's 3-1 defeat versus D.C. United.
Impact Johnson faced six shots and stopped three of them, being left with a disappointing loss during Saturday's match. The goalkeeper wasn't able to do much for any of the goals, and the defense in front of him was porous. Johnson is individually talented, but unless the team as a whole can tighten up defensively, he could struggle moving forward.

Richie Laryea - Assists during loss Laryea assisted once to go with two crosses (one accurate) and two chances created in Saturday's 3-1 loss against D.C. United. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 91st m...
Impact Laryea provided a single assist from wing-back during Saturday's loss, creating a pair of chances. The defender did well throughout the match, and was one of the few bright points in the attack even from wing-back. Laryea should be one of the top creative options in the attack, but unless the attack as a whole improves that still might not offer Laryea much upside.
SEPTEMBER 2 • ROTOWIRE
Deandre Kerr - Scores in loss Kerr scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) in Saturday's 3-1 defeat versus D.C. United. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 77th minute.
Impact Kerr got on the scoresheet with his only goal, but failed to really do much during Saturday's loss. He made the most of his chance, and salvaged an overall poor performance with the goal. Kerr will likely not be a top option in the starting XI, though goalscoring like this in his limited chances could help keep him in the first team moving forward.
SEPTEMBER 2 • ROTOWIRE
Jonathan Osorio - Available for selection Osorio is available for Saturday's clash with Austin after returning from ban.
Impact Osorio is set to return for Saturday's clash with Austin, where he should be an option in the first team. The midfielder started and went the full 90 in each of the last three matches before the ban. With Osorio available once more he should be straight into the starting XI.
SEPTEMBER 2 • ROTOWIRE
Federico Bernardeschi - Available once more Bernardeschi is available for Saturday's clash with Austin after serving a one-match ban.
Impact Bernardeschi served the ban against D.C. and is now available for selection once more. The midfielder is of course a constant in the starting XI and one of the best in the league. He should be a top option against Austin as he looks to build on 13 goal contributions.
