My timing may be a little off, but at the end of the day, I'm playing (against Panama), and that's all I can ask for, ... I need to be a good target forward up front, hopefully stay onside and get a goal. |

Obviously these games are important. Every game is important every time you put on the U.S. jersey. I'm a day by day kind of guy. It's always the way I looked at things. Germany is down the road right now. |
Obviously tonight I wasn't as sharp and let the team down a little bit. Pat Noonan played me two very good balls and unfortunately I just finished one of them. |
Obviously, we've missed Pat tremendously his play, the way he holds the play up. It's a pleasure playing with him, and hopefully we can do well together in the playoffs. |
Our first home match is going to be difficult, and we know that better than anybody, |
That game was just out of control from the opening whistle. But whatever... I'm going to get myself in trouble. |
They (Germany) are going to come flying at us. This is just another opportunity for us to show what we can do. |
This was maybe our best game of the year. |
To be playing LA, in a rematch from '02, there's a little more excitement from the guys who've been around, |
We are disappointed. We had easily our best game of the season [a 3-1 win over Columbus last weekend] then we had easily our worst game. Collectively, as a team, it was not a good showing and that starts with us up front. |
We know teams can do the same thing to us that we did last year, |
We need to keep our heads up, because we played very well. |
We won. Who cares? At the end of the day, we won. |
We've got to win games, we have to go into the playoffs on a roll. Thank God we have a game on Wednesday. |
