I think he's starting to play some of the best soccer of his career. |
I've never seen anyone beat him in a footrace. He's been phenomenal. |
If we're going to stay in contention, this week is huge. My guys were ready to play today. We knew we had to pass to beat them, and we worked the ball really well. |
That made a big difference because he gives them a spark on offense. We played well in spots, but we hit a lull late after we went ahead. |
They controlled the tempo of the game. We did a lot of chasing, which allowed us to get tired. We didn't really get the burst of speed that we probably could have used. That's the one thing I don't have this year. |
We finished a lot better. And it was big for James to break the ice. |
