tomski Posted July 9, 2013 Posted July 9, 2013 You can't help but admire his determination. "In my mind and in reality I came back from that a long time ago. I'm fully fit. I'm raring to go. I'm ready to contribute. "Prior to [the Guatemala] game [Klinsmann] spoke to all the center mids and told us all of us were playing at a high level in training and [he] wasn't sure which way the coin was going to fall and it was up to us to go out there and show that we wanted to be on the pitch and who wanted to be a starter as we go through the Gold Cup. "It's tough going through rehab. I'm not going to sugarcoat. "At the same time the motivation comes from the alternative. You'd have to give up soccer so a lot of times that kept me going, that kept me motivated. I felt good, felt driven." I've gotten better as a player being away from the game "Being able to watch, being able to learn, being able to get stronger and faster and all the little things and in that sense you can't dwell on those types of things because it brings to much negativity to your life and you find yourself bringing down your play and yourself off the field."

BOWTUN BAKED Posted July 10, 2013 Posted July 10, 2013 How did he play? Anyone watch it? Are Belize the equivalent standard of a championship club? Or a pub team from Scotland? Details people, details. Don't want to raise my hopes if the performance doesn't match the context, you know how giddy some can get. Quote
BOWTUN BAKED Posted July 10, 2013 Posted July 10, 2013 Ignore that, just seen the other thread, thankyou, carry on Quote
