excellent game good great happy jason jonathan left moves players sees team three trade
It was good for our team to trade the first pick, because we got three excellent players and not just one. Jason is a great defender. I like the way Sacha sees the game and the way that Jonathan moves on the left side. I'm really happy about our picks.
areas balanced bunch fun game good highlights players playing pressure puts seem team work
I think you have to make it a two-way game that puts them under pressure and highlights some of the areas where they are not as strong. Give them credit. They've had a good season. They're a balanced team and work hard. They've got a bunch of players that have been together, know each other and seem to have fun playing together.
battle early enter excited factor game impose itself takes team top
It's like any other game. Early on it will be a battle to see which team can get the edge, can impose itself on the other team. They'll enter the game with more optimism, excited about some new talent. But then it's our job, especially at home, to get on top of them in a way that takes that factor out of the picture.
across ball chances cheating coming continue early foot game goal good half hard jeff obviously push ryan second thinking tony tough turned until worked wrong
Not good goals, obviously a ball turned over early in the first half and Ryan Pore was able to get Jeff on the wrong foot and Tony was cheating a little bit, thinking that the ball was coming across and he got caught. We worked hard to get back to 1-1. Now to continue that push and keep the game even until we get chances to win. Again, early in the second half, it was a tough goal to give up.
changed field galaxy games gives good great guys heels makeup players ready team
The makeup of our team has changed a great deal. When you put players like Claudio Suarez on the field who have been in so many big games ... players with that kind of experience, it gives us a different mentality. With this group, there will be no concessions. Our guys feel like we're a good team and now we're ready to really go after the Galaxy and try to put them on their heels and really make it a good game.
area continue exhibition games good looks matter seeing training
It's an area where we must improve. It's early. It's still a matter of seeing in training and in some of the exhibition games how things work, where we need to continue to focus, who looks good and that kind of stuff.
early games goals periods results season sights start winning
You can only do goals for shorter periods of time. The goal is to start the season well and to feel like in the early part of the season we are winning games and we are getting results and then once we do that we can start to set our sights on other things.
coming confidence early gain good ready rest secondly team worked year
The early part of the season, you want to get off to a good start, you want to feel like little things you worked on are coming together, you want to gain some confidence and use that as a springboard for the rest of the year and be ready at the end of the year to, first be in the playoffs, and secondly be a team that can win.
coming fits players silly start talking team trial
All of that fits with how a team is coming together. When you have new players and trial players and everything else, it's silly to start talking about anything else.
addition experience help hope terms
In the back I hope that the addition of Claudio Suarez will help because I feel that his experience will go a long way in terms of organization.
defenders midfield starting sure team
It's not just about the defenders because we must defend well as a team starting with the frontrunners and make sure that in the midfield things are tighter.
counts definite figure formula happened last picture rest staff year
I know what happened last year but I always try to look at what's going on this year. I try to see the whole picture and try to figure out with the rest of the staff who we think can make us a better team. I don't know if there's a definite formula of how much of last year counts but it's part of what you do every year.
brings field great qualities says
It says a lot about Claudio that he's here, he's on the field and he's getting to know people. He brings great qualities in that regard. We need that for sure.
defensive fast guys healthy knew knows matter puts reads seeing shown slow strong terms
I always knew that he would still have defensive qualities. They don't go away. He's not fast but he was never that fast. He reads things. He puts attackers on his terms. He knows how to slow guys down. For me, it was just a matter of seeing one, if he was healthy and two, if he was just really strong in terms of his motivation. I think he's shown both.
