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.
ball defend field guys halftime wanting
I was wanting more from Amado Guevara tonight. I told him at halftime there are times we have to defend with the 10 guys who are on that field and at times he doesn't do that. When you look at it, you want Amado Guevara on the ball a lot more than what he did tonight.
brings creating guys looking media mix numbers obviously scoring teammates
His numbers are the same and obviously that's what you guys in the media are looking at. But it's what he brings to his teammates that's most important. He's always in the mix and he's always making, creating and scoring some goals.

We'll come back to regroup and hopefully we'll have certain guys and a strong group to start with.

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.

The goal for these two weeks is to bring the group together and to train hard. The guys have already started to come together in the first few days of training in New York and our time down here will certainly accelerate the process.
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.

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.

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.
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.
