himself push reason
I still think it will happen. I think this was a little setback but there's no reason why he can't push himself forward.
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.
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.
along enticing few field gauge next push
It's important that we push him along but not push him to do too much too soon, so we've got to gauge that in the next few days. It's always enticing to get him on the field as much as we can.
deep four looks midfield outside pulled pushed terms three time understanding wide
They take a different look all the time. There's times when there are four in the back but an outside back has pushed into the midfield so now there's only three. There's time when there's three in the back and one of the wide midfielders is pulled deep and it looks like four. It's not the most important thing in terms of our organization and our understanding of the field.
finish goal match paid played pushed second took
After we took the lead, we had stretches where we played very well. We pushed to get a second goal to try to finish the match and we didn't and we paid the price.
coming eventually everybody game games good half hard job learn level looked picked pushing response second sure turn work wrong
We looked hard at some of the things that we did wrong at the end of the game yet we made sure everybody understands that it is that kind of hard work that will eventually turn those games into wins. There were a lot of good signs. I really thought the response coming out of the second half was excellent. We picked up the level of play. We did a good job of pushing to get the second goal. We'll learn from those mistakes.
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.
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.
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.
ball free indicate kick seemed
It was very close. The replays of the free kick seemed to indicate the ball was over the line.
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.
bruce clearly himself imperative knows moves
Bruce has communicated very clearly with him. He knows it's imperative that he moves himself along.
brad good hoping longer national stretch training
Brad has had a good stretch of training with the national team. He'll be with them a while longer with the possibility of getting into a game. I'm hoping that will happen.
