A lack of depth at the forward position could come back to haunt Toronto FC this weekend against Columbus.

Random thoughts on TFC: More attacking options sorely needed

Some random thoughts I had on Toronto FC as the club prepares to host the Columbus Crew on Saturday in its home opener...

TFC notebook: Lorenzo Insigne on the mend while Reds face other injuries
The Italian looks to be recovering from a lower leg injury, but Adama Diomande and Ayo Akinola are dealing with hamstring issues.

Lack of forward depth could come back to bite TFC

Forward Adama Diomande and Ayo Akinola had to leave last Saturday's 1-1 road draw vs. Atlanta United after they both felt tightness in their hamstrings.

Akinola came off the bench to replace Diomande just before halftime, and then himself had to be subbed out in the 73rd minute. Both Akinola and Diomande have been absent from training this week, which raises questions as to whether they'll be fit to play in Saturday's home opener.
