attitude building great guys hard help knew number player plus process team terrific works
When he was let go, I knew in our building process that having a player like Timmy can only help us in all ways. Timmy is a great professional and he's a plus to every team he's on. He works hard every day. He has a terrific attitude and mentality. He can play a number of positions. He's one of the fittest guys on the team.

That actually works well but we'll try to keep the rest the same. They had Sunday and Monday off and now we'll work hard through this week. Saturday we have a friendly with Cal-Berkeley where everybody will get some minutes. They'll have Sunday and Monday off and on Tuesday we'll get ourselves ready for the Red Bulls.
against balance bit breaks calls change focus game games gets gone hope last looking team
Looking back on calls never gets a team anywhere. The game is still like that and you have to focus on how you improve. You hope the breaks balance out over the season. Things have gone against us a little bit the last two games but it doesn't change what we want to do.
cause cautious continues knee necessary problems time
It's necessary to be cautious as he comes back this time because the knee continues to cause some problems for him.
assuming bruce clear far gets gone mean ready thus time work
I'm assuming he'll be down in Cary but then it's going to be up to him that all this work that has gone in thus far is going to mean that by the time he gets there he will be ready to go at it every day. Bruce has been pretty clear about that.
establish guys piece pushing start training
Things establish themselves. Every day, the training is right and guys are pushing each other and then from that we are able to start to piece the little things together.
fitness full gauge hopefully moving wet
He's still working his way back into full fitness and it's a wet field, so it didn't feel like it made sense to use him. We'll gauge where he is and hopefully we can keep moving along.
hopeful past slower terms week
In terms of getting him back, it was slower than we all hoped. This past week was disappointing for him and disappointing for us because we were all hopeful to have him on the field.
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.
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.
create environment group players provide strong
I know that's really important and yet I also try and create an environment where there's a strong group of players to provide leadership, not just one.
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.
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.
