Bob Bradley Sure Quotations

We looked hard at some of the things that we did wrong at the end of the game yet we made sure everybody understands that it is that kind of hard work that will eventually turn those games into wins. There were a lot of good signs. I really thought the response coming out of the second half was excellent. We picked up the level of play. We did a good job of pushing to get the second goal. We'll learn from those mistakes.

It gave us a chance to focus on getting people healthy and focus on improving. I'm not sure it would have been our choice but that's how it went.

We really need to make sure that the mentality in terms of what training needs to be like every day, how to be stronger, how to compete. ... I really felt like that part needed to get put in place and that without that we were not going to step forward the way we wanted.

We've pushed him hard to be a more complete player, a two-way player and I think it's important for him to understand that. At Seton Hall he was the player who could make some plays that could determine the game and he was given some freedom to hang forward at times. I'm not sure he'll fill that role here. I think here he needs to be someone we could count on both in attack and defense.

It's not just about the defenders because we must defend well as a team starting with the frontrunners and make sure that in the midfield things are tighter.
