TFC looks to consolidate playoff position as familiar faces visit Sunday. MORE:

Toronto FC returns home Sunday to host some familiar faces as the Colorado Rapids visit BMO Field.

Colorado has won three straight since Fraser was appointed head coach Aug. 25 — with victories over the New York Red Bulls, Seattle Sounders and Los Angeles Galaxy — and comes north of the border trailing TFC by just six points. "I think we are really close," said Vanney when asked if his team is finally firing on all cylinders."Earlier in the year and through stretches of it, we were talking about bigger things — which was the profile of players that we still needed. It was bigger details.

Venezuelan winger Erickson Gallardo, who came off early in the 1-1 midweek tie with NYCFC, also saw some training time Friday. Midfielder Nick DeLeon, who is nursing several knocks, did not train as part of a maintenance day. Fourth in the Eastern Conference going into weekend play — ahead of D.C. United on goal difference — Toronto is looking to consolidate its position in the top four so as to have home-field advantage in the first round of the post-season.
