We like to look at this as an upgrade. |
We still have an opportunity to make the playoffs and our fans expect and deserve a team that will fight to the end. I felt this change was necessary to help with that endeavor. |
We would love nothing more than to have Landon back in an Earthquakes uniform, but evidently this is not what he wants. It's clear that his desire, from a personal and professional standpoint, is to play in Los Angeles. |
We'll see what happens. You can never predict what Red Bull is going to do. |
We're bringing Edson back home and make no mistake about it, we're bringing him back here to score goals. That was the message I relayed to him and he understands that. |
We're going to give him the benefit of the doubt and hope there is a very, very good reason. We expect to have him obviously not here today, but hopefully he arrives tomorrow. I haven't heard one way or the other. It's not excused until a legitimate excuse is given. |
While I'm excited about the opportunity to return to the L.A. Galaxy, I'm also sad to be leaving this team and this area after such a short period of time. |
