level near nowhere obligation people ten
Ten years ago, the level was nowhere near what it is today. We have an obligation to do that and most people take that seriously.
against attitude came change crowd everybody game happen learn needs people playing plays strong team teams tonight urgent win
We came out and we were playing at home, we had a strong crowd and we were getting our rings. I don't know if because of that we thought we were just going to come out and win the game - but it doesn't happen that way. Not against a team like that. We better learn fast, or we are going to struggle. Teams come here and they want to win, especially New England. Our attitude wasn't urgent enough and it comes down to people making plays and we didn't make plays. Everybody needs to do that, and tonight they made the play to change the game.
expect game maybe people slower sunday wide
It's soccer, so you never know. Maybe the game Sunday will be a little slower and wide open. I think people will expect a lot of goals.
country deserves hit people
It's just a number, but it's special. There's not a lot of people in this country or in the world that have hit 100, so he's been around a long time. He deserves it.
best game greatest happen people road seen
It was the greatest game I've ever been part of. Things don't happen like that. Years down the road people are going to say that's the best game they've ever seen in the league.
almost beat beyond lives people sweeter
I think that's what angers them about us. We have lives beyond soccer. For a lot of them they don't, players, coaches, people in Mexico, that's what they have. It's almost what makes it sweeter to beat them.
conduct intend painful people themselves treat whatever
I don't like how they treat us, how they conduct themselves with us. They intend to humiliate us and want to do that at whatever cost. But the people who will be doing the humiliating is us. We'll do that in the most painful way of being humiliated, on the field.
usa people helping
He's confident. He knows what he's good at and he has people around him to help him. (on Freddy Adu)

I've got a lot to prove to a lot of people, including myself.
best ending possible
It would be the best possible ending to our qualifying.
finish result sixth worry
Crucial, ... You don't want to worry about other results, you don't want to worry about getting a result in the sixth game. If you can finish it ... you finish it.
bruce chance coaching depth good great guys mean next opportunity prove seven team
Bruce made a good comment. He said: 'We've qualified, and that's great. But let's get better over the next seven months. It doesn't mean you relax. Let's get better as a coaching staff, as a team. And guys that get a chance to play now should prove that they belong.' That makes the depth of our team better. It's a great opportunity for some guys.
absolutely chance focus happy hard imagine love national needs prefer reason says scenario team
Don't get me wrong. I'd love to play for the national team but if I had the chance to be here and focus here then I'd prefer to do that, ... The only way is if (Bruce Arena) absolutely needs me. It's hard to imagine a scenario where that would be the case. If he says 'Look, for this reason or that I need you there,' I'll go. I'd be happy to go. If he really doesn't need me to be there, I'd like to stay.
excuse excuses game
We've had excuses for part of the year, but we don't have excuses now. This is a game we need to win, period.
