An agent doesn't run our team. And, frankly, his agent doesn't decide where he plays. |
At D.C. United, we have a way of doing things ... and people have to sublimate their egos and their selfish interests to the best interests of the group, |
Everybody played together as a team. That's why we got the victory. |
It was a big interception, ... I went up to try to knock it down, and I fell on the ground. The ball fell on my body and I grabbed it. It was big for the team. We needed that at that point. |

One [message] that resounds in meeting after meeting is, 'We want opportunity. Bring our kids opportunity, and bring our community opportunity,' ... We believe you are looking at opportunity. |
Our position is unchanged. I think one of the things that Freddy and the people around him need to understand is that, when it comes to playing time, Freddy is on a very good team. ... I'm not sure how this would be any different if Freddy were with Chelsea or Manchester United. They've got some pretty good players. |
People have to look at the mistakes that keep being made, and we've got to hold ourselves accountable. |
