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.
felt forward mentality needed needs step sure terms training
We really need to make sure that the mentality in terms of what training needs to be like every day, how to be stronger, how to compete. ... I really felt like that part needed to get put in place and that without that we were not going to step forward the way we wanted.
ability believe brings inside mentality organize people team terms tremendous understanding
I still believe that Claudio's experience, his ability to organize the defense, what he brings on the inside of the team in terms of mentality and team building, I just think he's a tremendous asset. He has a tremendous understanding of how to organize people around him, of how to communicate, of how to make (people) better and I think that will go a long way for our team.
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.
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.
defensive fast guys healthy knew knows matter puts reads seeing shown slow strong terms
I always knew that he would still have defensive qualities. They don't go away. He's not fast but he was never that fast. He reads things. He puts attackers on his terms. He knows how to slow guys down. For me, it was just a matter of seeing one, if he was healthy and two, if he was just really strong in terms of his motivation. I think he's shown both.
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.
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.
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.
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 has communicated very clearly with him. He knows it's imperative that he moves himself along.

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.
