team fighting usa
I've seen a lot of highs and a lot of lows with this team, and one thing I've learned is that even though you have lows, you're not going to have them forever, so you've got to keep fighting. (on the Los Angeles Galaxy)
teamwork jobs trying
That's one of my jobs, just trying to do what I can to help this team out as much as possible.
determination team thinking
We didn't think we were a fourth-place team. For us to beat the first-place team in the West and the first-place team in the East shows the dedication and determination that we had.
soccer team school
I never thought I'd play soccer past high school, so to go from that team to actually being most-capped and three World Cups is pretty special.
It's difficult to compare coaches. You really can't compare them.
final last matches necessary weeks work
It (the final result) can be attributed to fatigue. We're only two weeks into preseason. It's necessary for us to have matches like this to see where we are. We know what we have to work on these last two weeks before we get to the matches that really count.
difficult loss needed people personally replace saw
That was a big loss for a lot of people here personally and professionally. For us as a team, it's very difficult to replace someone who saw where the sport could go and where it needed to go.
blessed both career family fans galaxy honored thankful wonderful
I am both honored and blessed to have had such a wonderful career with the L.A. Galaxy and I am thankful for everything the club, the fans and the community has done for me and my family.
consistent everybody field good
It's good for us to have everybody back. Now we can field a consistent lineup and get used to each other.
history
There's a lot of history between the two teams.
time
It just proves that I've been here for a long time and, I guess, have done the right things over the years.
weeks
Being out in that heat for two weeks definitely drains your energy.
trying
The league, is doing well. It is just a matter of trying to sort some things out with my contract.
good overwhelm players
There's no need to overwhelm yourself with thoughts, because you know that you're just as good or better than some of the players you're going up against.
