closing great hard mark midfield nice pleased spot wilson worked
I thought Mark Wilson did very well tonight. He worked very hard in midfield and it's nice to get the first one -- he didn't know much about it -- but he was in a great spot in there closing him down. I'm very, very pleased for him.
ability confidence full goal great hits move playing shots
The kid's playing great. He's full of confidence and he's always had the ability to do what he did tonight. He hits shots that move and dip. That's a great goal and I don't think you're going to see a better one around for a while.
bobby forward front good great job open options played playoffs solid steve three
Just having a look at some different options. Steve played out there (at right back) in L.A. and did a good job and he did a good job tonight. I thought Bobby was great in front of him, he could have scored another two or three he got forward well. It's a more solid look, just to have a look at it going into the playoffs and just open our options up.
great takes
I think it will be great. It has always been a great rivalry. But now, it's a whole new dimension. This takes it to a whole different level.
bad decent forward gave great point
It's very disappointing. We were decent defensively, we had some great opportunities going forward that just didn't go in and at the other end we gave up a bad goal. It's getting to the point where we need to put things right.
absolutely competition confidence couple delighted fantastic full great healthy minute missing player scoring spots team
He's a great player and now that he's scoring goals, he's full of confidence so I'm absolutely delighted for him. There is always healthy competition for spots in the team and we have a couple missing at the minute and he's having to do the workload and he's doing a great job. He was fantastic tonight.
acquired best career experience good greater help knew north opportunity players seen sure
He is a good player. We've seen him grow, we knew of his career and we're sure of his ability. We had to give him the opportunity to play in our team. He is one of the best players in the north of Texas. Now that he's already returned, we know that we've acquired greater experience and we're going to see it in action. He'll be able to help us in our cause.
adjust decisions difficult direct effect field goal pushed three
They had three in the back so we pushed three up front. They had to make some difficult decisions and adjust to what we were doing. I wouldn't say that it had a direct effect on the goal but (Cooper) was on the field at the right time.
edge missed people
I think that was an edge that we've missed, and missed a lot more than people think.
learn position
It's just not a position you're going to learn in three, or even six, months.
eddie forward healthy looking miss needs obviously order rest soon trying valuable
Eddie is a valuable part of what we are trying to do here, so obviously we are going to miss him. However, we want him to get the rest that he needs in order to get healthy and we're looking forward to getting him healthy and getting him back as soon as possible.
becoming last nasty needs remained starter year
He's done very, very well. He started last year for the most part and has remained the starter this year. He needs to keep improving, getting better day in and day out and becoming a big, strong, hard, nasty defender.
general half kenny moved needed passing second sharp team worked
I thought they did well. The second half we were better, we moved it quicker. Kenny (Cooper) got his goal, they worked hard. I just didn't think our passing in general was for the whole team as sharp as it needed to be in the first 45 minutes.
attracts game holds passes people scoring sees
There's so much more to his game than just scoring goals. He sees passes that other people don't see. He holds the ball. He attracts a lot of attention.
