TORONTO - The time is now for Toronto FC.With just four games remaining in its MLS regular season, and with one game in hand on the five teams above it in the Eastern Conference, Toronto (11-12-7) needs three points from Wednesdays home outing against the Houston Dynamo (10-14-6).A win and Toronto dislodges Columbus to move into the fifth and final playoff spot in the East, with away games at New York and New England and a visit from the Montreal Impact to come.Were looking at all of them as games that we really want to win, must win, coach Greg Vanney said after practice Tuesday. Our goals is to pick up points in each of these matches.The margin of error depends on the performance of the teams immediately above them (Columbus and New York), he added.But, for us, we want to control our destiny. We dont want to have it in the hands of anybody else, So were looking at these games as must-win.By his estimate, seven points out of 12 might get them into the playoffs. Nine pretty much assures it. Unlike his coach, star midfielder Michael Bradley does not seem to be crunching the numbers although he acknowledges the margin for error is very small.Were not spending too much time thinking about what ifs and trying to calculate points in other games at this moment, he said. For us, its about the four games that we have left and knowing that theyre going to be four difficult games. But we have absolute confidence in ourselves that we can go out and, really in every game, get three points.The BMO Field contest may fly under the radar, given that it goes up against the Maple Leafs season opener against Montreal at the nearby Air Canada Centre.Toronto, which came into the league in 2007, has never made the playoffs. While it has set franchise marks for wins (11) and points (40) in 2014, TFC has made the post-season its benchmark this season.Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment spent millions in overhauling the club. Bradley (US$6,500,000) ranks third on the league salary chart while striker Jermain Defoe is fourth ($6,180,000).Poor performance has already cost manager Ryan Nelsen and five of his assistant coaches their jobs.The eight-place Dynamo, meanwhile, can move within one point of Toronto with a win Wednesday.Houston will have to do it without Honduran midfielders Boniek Garcia and Luis Garrido, who are away on international duty.Its significant, Toronto defender-midfielder Warren Creavalle, who came over from Houston in a July trade, said of the losses.The game is massive for both teams, he added. Were both under the red line, trying to get back above it.Toronto got a break on the international score with Bradley and Canadians Jonathan Osorio, Dwayne De Rosario and Kyle Bekker avoiding national team call-ups.Torontos Doneil Henry, Manny Aparicio, Quillan Roberts and Jordan Hamilton are in the Canadian camp but none are starters. Hamilton is currently on loan to a Portuguese second-tier club.Both teams are coming off weekend losses that ended unbeaten runs.Toronto lost 3-0 to the Galaxy in Los Angeles. It was unbeaten in three games before that, earning seven of nine points against Chicago, Chivas and Portland.Houston suffered a 1-0 road loss to the New York Red Bulls. The Dynamo had gone unbeaten (3-0-2) in their five previous games.The good news for Vanney is that his team is healthy. Defoe returned to action in L.A., coming in off the bench with 30 minutes. Brazilian striker Gilberto (hamstring) and fullback Mark Bloom (leg) are both healthy.Vanney said Defoe has looked proper over the last few days.The manager has choices to make at striker with Defoe, Gilberto and Luke Moore vying for two positions and at fullback between Creavalle and Bloom.Its interesting, given the investment in designated players Defoe and Gilberto, that Vanney says he doesnt really know his preferred partnership up front.Its tough to say because I havent seen them together recently, he said of Defoe-Gilberto.Vanney said he looked forward to seeing the two perform together but made a point of praising English striker Luke Moore as well.Its hard to say what the best two is, he said of his strike force. I think we have three outstanding choices there and other guys, by the way, who can help us out in the stretch run here as we push for wins.The team accountants may think differently. Moores salary of $128,333.33 pales in comparison to that of Defoe and Gilberto ($1,205,000).Follow @NeilMDavidson on Twitter Adidas Eqt Trainers Uk .

After making a few alterations, the council voted 4-3 in favour on a 15-year, US$225 million lease agreement with Renaissance Sports & Entertainment during a special session. The vote clears the way for RSE to purchase the Coyotes from the NHL, which has been running the team the past four years. The paperwork from Tuesday night has to be signed and completed by July 8th and RSE has to close the deal by August 5th. The team is now expected to be rebranded the Arizona Coyotes. RSE is led by Canadian businessmen George Gosbee and Anthony LeBlanc. The decision had been in doubt as RSE and the city went through tense negotiations over the past few weeks. The Coyotes may have relocated to another municipality, potentially Quebec City, if an agreement was not reached. RSE may have swung the vote in its favour earlier in the day when it announced a partnership with Global Spectrum, which owns the Philadelphia Flyers, to help manage Jobing.com Arena. RSE must finalize its lease agreement with Glendale and its purchase of the team by Aug. 5. The meeting attracted hundreds of Coyotes fans and Glendale residents, who showed their pleasure or displeasure in the chambers by putting their thumbs up and down. An overflow crowd downstairs in the employee lounge also cheered and booed at a closed-circuit monitor. The meeting also was attended by Coyotes general manager Don Maloney and player Derek Morris, along with NHL commissioner Gary Bettman and deputy commissioner Bill Daly, who received a rare standing ovation as they entered the chambers. RSE reached a deal to buy the Coyotes from the NHL last month and spent several weeks negotiating with Glendale for an arena lease deal, the final hurdle in its attempt to purchase the franchise. After weeks of back and forth, RSE accepted numerous revisions to an initial draft of the lease agreement, including a $50,000 payment to the city if the Coyotes pplay less than 41 games, but stood firm on an out clause for the city.dddddddddddd The city had asked for the clause to match a provision that allows RSE to relocate the team after five years or if it accrues $50 million in losses. Nick Wood, a lawyer representing RSE, said the out clause was out of the question, but made a concession on the deal, offering to pay the city any losses in revenue above $6 million should the team be relocated. After a long debate, the council agreed to vote on an amended lease agreement without the clause. The city also was concerned about a $15 million fee to manage Jobing.com Arena. Glendale budgeted $6 million to operate the arena, but RSE projected between $8.5 and $11 million in revenue from arena naming rights, parking, rent, ticket surcharges and other streams to make up the difference. RSE added a provision in the deal that called for it to pay the difference if revenues dont cover the $6 million the city has budgeted to run the arena. After a council meeting that lasted about four hours, the council voted in favour of the deal despite reservations from some councilmembers. The partnership with Global Spectrum may have been the turning point. A subsidiary of international sports and entertainment firm Comcast-Spectator, Philadelphia-based Global Spectrum manages 113 facilities around the world, including the Wells Fargo Center, home of the Flyers. The company also operates University of Phoenix Stadium, the home of the Arizona Cardinals thats on the south end of the Westgate Entertainment District where Jobing.com Arena is located. RSE has projected $8.5 million to $11 million in revenue to Glendale, which budgeted $6 million to manage Jobing.com Arena. Bringing in Global Spectrum would likely increase the number of non-hockey event dates at the arena and RSEs LeBlanc called the partnership the final piece of the deal. The NHL has operated the Coyotes since former owner Jerry Moyes took the team into bankruptcy in 2009. After numerous suitors came forward and fell back through the years, the franchise is finally headed toward a stable future. ' ' '
