ball caught easier felt freddy growing kid watching
I felt Freddy didn't want any part of Marvell in the first half. It was an easier time. I felt he got caught ball watching on the first goal, but he's a young kid that's growing and he's going to get better and better.
ball discount games last looked maybe player quality sharp
When you look at it, you want Amado Guevara on the ball a lot more than what he did today. With him being away for maybe 10 or 11 days, he's not looked as sharp in the last two games but he's a quality player and you can't discount quality players.
came expect goal half handling players save second step tony
Tony came up very big, in the first half especially. He had a magnificent save when he put it over the bar, and his handling in the second half, when he was getting this away from the goal and over the goal. You expect your big-time players to step up and he did that tonight.
challenge league plays possesses skills
We all know what Amado can do. He possesses skills that no one else in this league has. But we have to challenge him to make plays like that.
forward group guys looking playing time work younger
We will be playing a lot of the younger guys to give them some more time so I can see where I want to go from there. This is where I get to work tactically, which I'm looking forward to because the group we have is very flexible.
sharp
We weren't as sharp offensively as we'd like to be. We just couldn't finish.
add believe contribute excited forward goals good jean league proven quality quick score team
We are excited to add another quality striker to our club. Jean Philippe is a strong, quick forward who is very good in the air. He has proven he can score goals in this league and we believe he can contribute to our team immediately.
against chance good last painful played start team
It's painful because we played so well for a good part of the game. It's not over though. We know we still have a chance and it has to start against D.C. They are a good team but we have to play like this is our last chance, because it could be.
ask days good worked
It was a good 14 days down here. Everyone worked very hard; that is all you can ask of them.
front job office players sell trying week
It's been a long week for all of us, the staff, the front office and the players. The players did an unbelievable job for me, after all the commitments they made all week trying to sell this game. That's what you have to do in America.
best deserves goalkeeper honor last league tremendous
It's a tremendous honor. He deserves it. He's been the best goalkeeper in this league for the last 10 years, by far.
advantage came fit gives height impressive obviously taylor
Taylor has had a very impressive camp. He came in very fit and his height obviously gives him a big advantage on the backline.
against care compact dancing freddy guys people pressure stay wide
It's important to stay compact against them and to keep the ball. You need to take care of Moreno, and Freddy will be dancing in between people and it's important to keep pressure on their wide guys and we can do that.
few good light practice
It was interesting. It was good practice. It's always good to see them in a different light so we put them on the big field. There were a few plusses and a few minuses.
