TORONTO -- Fresh from a trip to England and Italy in search of marquee talent,
Toronto FC manager Ryan Nelsen says his MLS club is feeling optimistic about the
future.

accompanied overseas by general manager Tim Bezbatchenko and Tim Leiweke, the
president and CEO of Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment. "We talked to a
number of players, a number of friends," Nelsen said after practice Wednesday.
"Hopefully we can get something done as soon as possible. "But I know -- having
been in the middle of this myself before -- it does take time. But it was a
really productive trip. Thats all I can really say. "Lets just say I came back
very excited." Leiweke has said that the club hopes to sign two designated
player strikers in the January transfer window. While Nelsen did not detail his
itinerary, his travels took him to his former club Tottenham where talented
striker Emmanuel Adebayor has been surplus to requirements this season. But the
29-year-old Togo international reportedly makes north of 125,000 pounds a week
(C$210,000 or close to $11 million a year). Thats rich -- for MLS and MLSE.
Former French international Thierry Henry of the New York Red Bulls leads the
league salary table at US$4.35 million, according to figures released by the MLS
Players Union. Adebayor, who once cost Manchester City 25 million pounds (C$42
million), may also not tick off all the boxes expected of a DP by Leiweke.
Torontos immediate future, however, is its regular-season finale Saturday
against a motivated Montreal Impact team. The visiting Impact (14-12-7)
currently stand third in the East with 49 points. A win over Toronto (5-17-11)
and Montreal automatically qualifies for the playoffs. New York and Sporting
Kansas City have already earned two of the five playoff berths in the East. That
leaves Chicago (49 points), Houston (48), New England (48) and Philadelphia (46)
chasing Montreal. If Montreal ties or loses to Toronto, it will need help from
its rivals in a convoluted playoff scenario further complicated by the Impacts
1-5-1 record in recent weeks. Should the Impact fail to win Saturday, it will
have to wait on its fate until Chicago, Houston and New England play Sunday.
Montreal has never won at BMO Field since entering the MLS, with an 0-2-2 record
in all competitions. In the clubs previous meetings this season, the Impact won
2-1 in Montreal on March 16 and there was a 3-3 draw in Toronto on July 3. NOTES

reserve game. Midfielder Darel Russell continues to nurse a muscle strain. On
the plus side, Bobby Convey is back training and fellow midfielder Jeremy Hall
is back from suspension.
