Bruce Arena is very capable and he changes something every game. We have to wait until the right moment, which is the first minute of the game, to see the team's stance and whether they are offensive or not. |
He's got the dynamism you'd expect of a 19-year-old kid. He shuttles back and forth. He doesn't know what fear is, either. We thought he might be nervous and overawed about playing for his country, but he's shown real character and steel. |
I imagine that we'll qualify on Saturday because this team is looking really good. There's a good atmosphere and camaraderie. |
I was able to look at some new players and some old players and make some conclusions on who will make the World Cup team. |
The first team to make a mistake would not win, and Mexico made the mistake. |
This is the result of excellent work. I'm very proud of my players and I'm sure that we will play an excellent role next year in Germany 2006. |
We play without fear. I think a lot of these youngsters can get onto the World Cup team for 2006. These young players showed they have what it takes to battle with anybody. |
We worked three years on a process that culminates today and during which each aspirant was evaluated thoroughly to arrive at a final determination. |
We're going up against a very difficult rival who will be playing with nothing to lose, |
