last maybe plain position process start training win
Plain and simple, when you start a season, you start with the idea that you want to win a championship. How you get there is another thing. When we start training today, it's not with the idea of 'Oh, maybe we can do a little better than last year.' No, no. It's the idea that this is the first day of a process that can put us in position to win a championship.
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.
believe closely conference couple determine few game kept last playoff plays results says weekend winning
Last weekend was a weekend when a few results kept things very tight. I still believe that it says a lot about the conference that everybody's grouped so closely and that really winning a game at the right time, making a couple of plays at the right time, those are the things that really will determine the standings and the playoff pairings.
best fighter great joined last mentality peter played players respect sets starting team winner
He is a winner and he is a fighter. I had great respect for the way he played when he joined the team last year. That is a great starting point. Peter Nowak was a winner and a fighter and when you have that mentality from your best players it sets the tone.
addition excellent great hopeful john last player plays terms touches
We're hopeful that we can put the last touches on that. We all know that John is an excellent player that I think would be a great addition in terms of the way he plays and the things that he does on the field.
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.
add age asked believe forget hard help last minute worked year
I still believe that Ramon can help us with that. Last year ... I feel like Ramon worked very hard but I feel sometimes he was asked to do so much by himself. Forget the age for a minute -- no one can do it by (himself). It has to be collective. I still feel he can add to that.
burner few front last terms time weeks work
The last time I thought about it was ... a few weeks ago. It's not something that is on the front burner in terms of the work that's being done right now.
changed continuing good group guys moving themselves throughout type ways works
We've changed throughout preseason. I feel like we're continuing to look at different combinations and see what works and we need that type of flexibility as we through the season. We still have a ways to go. For me, it's still good to see guys moving themselves forward. There's a group that's doing pretty well.
certainly goalkeeper open terms third wide
We certainly will need to have a third goalkeeper on our roster somewhere, so we're still wide open in terms of how we put it together.
against becoming calls deal game goes good hard key learn moments order recognize team whether work
We feel like we are going in the right direction. But we also recognize that becoming a good team is hard work and you learn to deal with things that go against you, whether it's a game that goes against you or calls at key moments because you have to be able to deal with the things that don't go your way in order to become very good.
attack both complete count determine fill forward freedom game given hall hang hard needs player plays pushed role sure understand
We've pushed him hard to be a more complete player, a two-way player and I think it's important for him to understand that. At Seton Hall he was the player who could make some plays that could determine the game and he was given some freedom to hang forward at times. I'm not sure he'll fill that role here. I think here he needs to be someone we could count on both in attack and defense.
alone ball continue good harder mentality midfield talk win work
When I talk about the mentality and how we play and how we're organized, all of that has to work so that now in the midfield we are harder to play against. It's not enough to think that we're good with the ball and that alone will win every game. We want to continue to be good with the ball but that must work now collectively.
bringing ensure goes habits kinds players setting towards
Bringing in some experienced players here to ensure day in and day out that we are establishing the right kinds of habits ... goes a long way towards setting a tone.
