Marvell Wynne, Marvell Wynne, flying down the wing.

The unavoidable juggernaut that is the MLS Cup hype machine is again turning the focus of the world's media to Marvell Wynne, with this publicity stunt set for Friday, based around lighting up the CN Tower.  So I figured I'd join in by reliving some of his best moments with TFC, at least the ones available on youtube.

I'll start with his first goal for TFC, from September 2008 against Houston. Go to 1:51 to see the goal, a great dribble, cutting in from the right wing, owning Dwayne De Rosario in the process, and then a great shot into the far corner. This video also features Hunter Freeman's comedy own goal, starting at 1:15, if you want to take that in again.


This is probably my favourite Marvell moment, his assist on Danny Dichio's goal against Colorado, featuring a nutmeg, a well sold dummy, and a good low cross for Dichio.  And why not get nostalgic for 2007 by watching the whole thing, top ten goals of 2007.



He seemed to like playing against his current club, getting another assist here with yet another run down the wing and cross, this time for De Rosario, at 0:34 of this video.  Also at about 2:45, you see the rarity of an O'Brian White goal, a really nice finish as well.


This is his other TFC goal, and it's another spectacular one, against Dallas in 2008, using his speed to get behind the defence, running on to a through ball, and chipping the goalie from about 30 yards out, at 2:50.  Keep watching to see John Carver have a bit of a meltdown at the end.


Thanks for the memories Marvell, keep your hands down on Sunday.
