team home opportunity
I'm very young. This gives me a perfect opportunity to play for a good team and be close to home, to grow as a player. (on signing for D.C. United)
player europe usa
A lot of players in Europe aren't as tall as the other guys, so they have to be stocky to physically compete.
football play care
I need to go play football. I don't care about anything else.
girl play always-trying
I play a lot of Playstation, and always trying to look pretty for the girls.
player thinking games
It's frustrating at times when you think you've earned a chance to play on the field and you're over there sitting on the bench. That's not the kind of player I am. I'm the kind of player who wants to be out there on the field and needs to contribute every minute of every game.
given has-beens
Nothing has been given to me.
track expectations
Obviously, everybody has their own expectations of you, but you have to have your own expectations for yourself. For me, I'm right on track.
smart heart matter
It doesn't matter what size you are. It matters how big your heart is and how smart you are.
mean play careers
I need to be in a stable environment right now in my career. What I mean by that is a place where I can play and not have too much pressure on me and a place I can develop. Monaco wanted me and did whatever they could to get me so I feel very very good about that.
vacation speak-english numbers
I don't know French at all. I took some lessons when I was younger but all I know are the numbers. I've been told basically everyone in Monaco speaks English because of it being a huge vacation spot so I'm excited about that. I might not need to learn French after all.
better-life asks
I couldn't ask for a better life.
people has-beens
A lot of people have been hyped up to be great but just disappeared. I promised myself I wouldn't be one of them.
mom love-is men
I wanted to get us a place of our own with a little bit more space. The kitchen is just huge, because my mom... lives there, man, and she loves being in the kitchen.
soccer mom doors
My mom was always the supplier of soccer balls, and so people were always knocking on my door, and trying to get me out so we could play.
