defender excited good qualities strength
We are very excited to get Marvell. He has strength and pace, and those two qualities will make for a very good defender in this league.
afford chris closed gave goal hold lead nearly shop team three
We didn't hold the lead and I told our team we should have come away with three points. We closed up shop and then we nearly gave up a goal at the end with Chris Klein. We can't afford to do that.
bob emotional good move opportunity picking team tough
Bob is a good friend, and now I'm picking up the pieces. But it's my opportunity to move the team forward. It's an emotional day, tough on the players, tough on the staff.
both jon performed tony
Tony is healthy; Jon is healthy. Both of them have performed well.
behind focus knowing practice question week
There's no question it all has been a distraction. Practice this week has been (bad) and part of it is not knowing what is going to happen. We need to put it all behind us and focus on D.C. because if we don't we are going to lose.
mark needs rookie running year
There's no one running by him and he just needs to get better in his positioning. Mark my words, he's going to be Rookie of the Year come the end of the season.
combine credit freed guy last money people seen year
I've seen him in Indiana, I've seen him at the combine last year and he can play. He's a tough-nosed kid, but a lot of people don't give him credit because he can pass. We freed up an international spot, we freed up money and we got a guy who is young.
attacking far good respect strong team
The way they play, they're a strong attacking team. They're a strong unit, a good team and we respect that. But that's as far as it will go.
defended fans four goals liked maybe obviously three tonight
As a team, we defended very well. Obviously the fans would have liked maybe three or four goals but tonight it just wasn't the case.
beat excuse excuses stand
D.C. was the better team. There's no way I'm going to stand up here and make excuses when we got beat 4-1.
ball
I wanted more from Amado Guevara tonight. When you look at it, you want Amado Guevara on the ball more than he was tonight.
came forget good knowing looking loss needed quality spent
You're not going to forget a loss like that. We came away knowing that we just weren't good enough. We needed more quality and that's what we spent the off-season looking for.
good players tremendous
It was tremendous and it was good that the players went and acknowledged them. They were very vocal.
against beating key midfield sides system
The system was very important to play against them. The way we competed on the sides and in the midfield was the key to beating them.
