Toronto FC captain Steven Caldwell acknowledges that the 2014 MLS season has been substandard for the Canadian club.
The former Newcastle United, Sunderland, Burnley and Birmingham City centre-back has been a major part of the Reds line-up this campaign but admits it has been a disappointing result to be sitting six points out of the play-offs with two regular season matches remaining.
"I think overall we've let ourselves down," Caldwell told the Toronto Star.
"As a group of players and as a football club, we should have been in a better position than we're in so we all have to look individually, honestly at ourselves in the mirror and ask what we could have done better.
"Personally and as a team, we feel that we left a lot of games out there."
Caldwell's TFC had plenty to be positive about prior to the 2014 MLS season with the off-season signings of Jermain Defoe, Michael Bradley, Gilberto, Bradley Orr and Dwayne De Rosario but now look likely to miss the play-offs.
The Greg Vanney-coached side sit sixth on the Eastern Conference table, behind Columbus Crew, who are two wins ahead with just two fixtures left.
