3. Establishing a Tactical Identity

One of the most important aspects of Fraser’s approach is building a cohesive and competitive squad. In recent seasons, Toronto FC has relied heavily on individual talent, often struggling collectively in key moments.

Fraser is determined to change that narrative by implementing a clear playing style that prioritizes teamwork. The goal is to create a balanced squad where every player contributes to the team’s success rather than focusing on individual performances.
