Title: In the Net - 7/29/2009

" It's easier -- man -- Brad told mrs. Deliberately -- It was meant you're behind the scenes pastor of the New England Revolution and the world of Major League soccer exclusively on revolution soccer dot net. Yeah and now he yours. Brad tells it."

" Went -- was down to Texas. Terrible -- humidity. Where the drives just seem to ride it's unbelievable in Dallas and Houston the -- other than that. Painful MLS cup loss aren't really enough to 2006. The revs of -- really. Diet to lose to Dallas and now Houston over the years most lone star state. And you know I really don't wanna hear Houston or news news pundits talk about how. The dynamo were short and yes Stuart Holden and branching rout of the lineup. But Disney -- at all immunity you. Let's be honest you know -- did Kelly you Bay's starting up top he's coming into form you know -- Garcia -- is wasn't available either. Joseph had to come off the bench and you know regardless of that the reds beat the number one team an analyst -- a record. They be -- USA were top league for -- weeks. They played Chicago very very close and that. In that semifinal super league just a couple weeks ago and I'm not saying -- dominant team. You know at 65523. Points. You know their right. Right in the thick of things with at least against him and every team about them in in the standings. And you'd have to say. There. There in good position right now they still got -- they take care business and you know the next order business is -- Toronto it's the home. But you'd -- 231. In late may up in Canada. And you know it's not an easy task trials got some vulnerabilities but they they also you're obviously a very good size with the way -- Dario -- RO -- there as as threats now -- in so. We're we're gonna discuss that. We're gonna have. -- from Canada and they show including Jason -- vause. Of Toronto FC television. Former Kennedy international and after a long art career over in UK. -- do TV in on Terry joins us out Jason and there."

" How are -- men busy week for Toronto coming off of me. A disappointing. Loss for the gave up a stoppage time -- the Columbus now is Jason they have to play in the champions league against. Puerto Rico side that we saw really has the links to it to compete. In his champions league competition from their own track record you know eight. And then four days later go to New England so it's not a happy Strachan -- for a --"

" No and NN how many times do we see that that team's entire season comes down to -- two week period. We're the crucial -- while it plays and and I think it's. Pretty much unanimous appears that were drawn to it sees -- right now they they really need to get it. Solid victory tonight against Puerto Rico to set the well what the way they can -- time. And then it cuts it's very important conference rivalry games against. You know teams like New England -- just hovering right below them coming up on the weekend as well so. It didn't start off all that well for Toronto you know losing to Columbus. Last committee -- that they scored. Which is which is down. We're depending where anything. No brilliant on the part. We're defending its cost -- time and time again here it. Seems to be historian and unfortunately they still haven't really rectify it. The issue is that they have the pack in and and -- could go along way towards deciding game against the New England team that's on the LP after."

" Why their frailties at the back Jason because you look at the five guys who who tend to comprise the back for. Are Cora. Brandon Garcia series you win all big names. What -- some guys it's an international experience there. On paper. That should be at least a solid if not an a plus MLS back line now what what are the issues is -- team defending thing."

" Well you know I think the big problem that they have is that they read lacked leadership back there and I think Nick Garcia has certainly proved that. You know committed and done fairly well. Get not a big news in the case you know does not leg but. I never -- history -- years so if I -- everything you know you don't have. You don't necessarily have to be. Dispute mark felt we could be as successful center you know it. The communication is the big thing and I think Garcia has really helped in that regard. A lot of it's down to individual error. -- well in particular very culpable a lot of mistakes and lot of schools -- they've conceded I don't see. Fellas being part of their long term strategy. Got big hopes for. The core I think she's got. Everything he needs to be. -- entry gate strong. Aggressive. He's comfortable on the ball notably quiet for my liking -- and talk a lot but when you decide among -- Garcia. He sort of take in that mentor. And take the -- You know the other players at the back marvell -- You know he's excited that I would've loved to play alongside myself because he's phenomenal -- Just. Kept agencies that click. You know if you'd like to get forward he's more than capable of getting back. But he need that experience decided to talk -- because traditionally very poor. And that's something that perhaps even look to try and exploit is is his additional awareness for lack thereof. On the other side gym -- and very experienced any international. I'd just for many years past came I still region's best positions axis -- left Winger because. He's got decent pace. Very good delivery which -- fallen from the left hand side and not something that. Drawn to a lack of them throw your existence really is in natural left sided attacking midfielder. And -- played most of these games Hezbollah back but I think she could be drastic going forward and and it's just a question of trying to find the right guy to it ended up back line to make it click."

" Yeah and and here you talked it sounds like both fullback saloon -- certainly more experience. Tactically aware discipline that. Mark will win. It sounds like both guys on the outside like to get forward and maybe you know defending is not there there their forces."

" Yeah I think it's -- mean marvell is is that is an enigma. You know he has volatility in the world and has all the talent and and and Bob Bradley have in particular has noticed that called me. The confederations cup in gold cup and the like and forcing and seeing much time. I think that is. The function of the fact that he just doesn't out that the additional awareness to play at international level right now but he is a worker program. And if he can continue to improve and learn outside of gaming better this year anyway last. If you continue to improve and there will be teams in Europe that are looking his way because he does enhance both speed you either have agreed to home. And he has it states so. You know he is a player to. As a big upside but there's of the learning curve there and it's it's the growing pains and it can be painful it's it's painful being atrocities reporter at time."

" I AJ Foyt the they they've thrown away a lot of -- events in the hallmark. You know it Toronto's 341. In MLS play. Since they defeated there is back on May 23 that's a pretty impressive victories -- in the second half effort. By Toronto but looking at the schedule Jason. Two of those three wins are against the lowly New York Red Bulls the other one against last place and Jose. So yes you wonder how good they are people talk about this being a turnaround season but you can hear this it is the frustration Chris commons quotes. After the game you know they've all that -- going forward and admitted that defending this hasn't been there you you know him. It seems like it. Back to -- it's a work in progress."

" It is an end you know I think they need massive improvement going forward this here and swing your stereo is historic this week you just aren't any team he's been a big asset I think a modicum aren't had a very good news as well. He's starting to produce the kind of form that you'd expect from from former Ramallah and PP. Integral to to what they're trying to do there I think he's gonna be a big loss if he's. He's not available for the came on the weekend he's struggling to be fit for tonight's game that's going to be a big blow to them. Because he -- you really makes and ticket and was he Rosario in the air. That it takes a bit of pressure off of our I think last year in particular. He was a marked man and never -- news that any anything good that truck was going to create going to come through in the -- key on him. But now you've got -- are you got yours scenario. You -- eighties and technically very talented. Corps Nicole know that there are other players were capable. Creating things. And name again generating those goals scoring chances so. They have a bit of a multi pronged attack going forward but again you know and any successful team and and you guys on the list for. From the success you've had done -- and successful team has built a strong back line you gotta be strong solid defensively first. Before you can you know that's free flowing football port forward."

" My first thought defer to your expertise and Ali Turbo --"

" Good question yeah. I think we've sat anyway -- players up here where. You know it did it that they do in the media and and and whatnot are told the pronunciation of the name only to be -- act could corrected later on by the player AG's here use -- EO. That's a true we've heard everything so that we -- we're going with Al baker are right now but will will that we're trying to confirm that for you. Directly from the player because he has admitted here that long. And that with the team for we ten days."

" Yeah I can crossing paths with him and I've always Edgar by Peter called the game when he's with Pittsburgh with the Toronto linked. You know he's been over Europe is that the question I was gonna ask you and I always look at this. I didn't -- player who have played some games for Columbia and then with the Dallas burn -- Juniors. John Jairo tray -- dreadlocks. Out. Okay now that he's the same player that I remember he Iraq that he played all over the place you played in the Middle East and Europe and South America. And we see guys have like 89 teams in ten years BC wind is that he scores goals that you look it -- And you know -- which -- are just throttle league's Montreal impact back and forth the candidate but he's also. He's he's very well traveled seasonal Whitman team since 2001 why is it I have to move them to be scored goals."

" Well I have always believed that if a player. Whatever position you play the player changes teams a lot there's a reason for that. You know generally teams hang on to their most valuable assets and don't let them go cheaply. And when a player. Moved around a great deal it's generally because he is a problem and address here or is it very difficult. Player. To integrate into the chemistry of the team. And I worry about that was Laker I'm I'm concerned that. He's going to be a player that's very high maintenance. He can score goals he's shown that at international level. He scored goals that and then he'd gone over -- England a fourteen goals in 24 games. And then there were issues with the work -- situation all of that but. It's it's definitely. Bastards decided name. You know looking at it why is it that he's had that many teams and for one -- Little bits and pieces behind the scenes that perhaps it's. You know it's an attitude issue and it. You know who knows hopefully. You know all the Canadian guys that come back plane Toronto on the -- the -- any trees here you."

" Why would you rock star up there."

" you gonna you know what they get treated really well -- you mean you you can't argue with -- you know witnesses in the coverage that they get the export that they -- is probably the definitely. You know and and the facilities. Are going to be proved people -- critics in and rightly so because if you Turk is awful there. But it's going to be replaced and eventually it's going going to be crafts. When that happens what would you want plain -- to be great place to play."

" Yeah I totally agree and it's funny the that your what you're saying about -- confirms what I was just sort of gleaning from just looking at the CB wasn't any. You know of the sort of word about stuff I just you can bounces around like that you just say there's gotta be. There's gotta be something -- bright white getting back from injury that's gonna be seen as a plus."

" Yeah it is mean. I don't think -- expectations. Were. Were enormous for -- played this season. And I don't believe in the past in the next season. When his chance to have a full preceded under his belt with his teammates and working exclusively with. -- whispered news fantastic it has -- Hello this is you know and in doing a lot of good work with them. But it's gonna take it some time to get up to speed. He is a rookie you know and and and much is native is. His potential but he is a rookie in the risen at an adjustment period there they have to go through but. Watching train in the day for hat trick in the fire side. And they were all good finishes. Where. Actual. Very call -- vertical for them well. Adopted chat -- pretense to stature things and time you know blasted through the back of the -- you. O'Brien wait just looks like a natural course or keep an awkward customer like -- keep. He looks like he's still injured but he runs very awkwardly and speaking with them. Which -- agent -- it is it is still struggling of this story is is this the way. -- He just looked that way to operate our perky very very -- on -- way he he runs but he's a guy that is is potentially at that point Eagles score in the."

" Interest in San -- is a god knows who you have to -- is exceeding expectations given him. The international level even though he's highly touted coming in that's gotta be pleasant surprise."

" It's funny I was. I was speaking to a fellow the other day who represents -- Toronto. And I said it is if it was me. -- and I had to give an MVP right now obviously eat eat we've got I think -- area or were very important success but. I think Tim Cronin. And step -- Friday at its fantastic. If they don't look like rookies they don't look like first your players. People coming in and lately he's Patrick. And the great thing that I like -- both of them is that there's no amount of egos that come along with of their very hopeful. The very appreciative to be -- it to be and professional environment. And there's there's nothing but upside with those two guys. And if they carry on in in in in the -- it started off their professional careers. I think Troy are gonna have a hard time and on those guys because. And -- and and and -- Bryant did two of them are exactly the kind of players that European teams are looking for."

" Rheinecker gave the caps do than they can get you work permit issues become."

" and I I mean I I wasn't at all surprised that Sam Cronin got called up for the the gold cup. You know I think he deserves -- off balance of play. You know and and there are there have been a number of very solid rookie season. Parties is one that jumped out as well but Tim Cronin you know should be you know getting -- mention as should -- strive for rookie year."

" Yup well you know it's interesting when my color analyst occurs -- you in the open. You know presuming he comes through the Puerto Rico's game unscathed and everything that -- he's gonna be the guy that we focus on an open to our telecast on Saturday when. TSE's visiting -- in speaking with a but the risk. Jason so what is the view of New England from. North of the border obviously there's a mutual respect because -- the link between Johnson and Steve -- from -- Scotland. You know in NM LS terms of this in the context of the current season how do you think the answer --"

" I think some people were a little bit surprised that they had such a slow start this season. Not at all surprised that they've gone a bit of you know that -- run to get themselves back into contention. I I think the loss of -- is a big -- He's he's -- guy that that I always liked and -- thought he was very capable. Senator in Major League soccer I was surprised that he went to. To the club anyway if you in this Denmark."

" you know it's not it's I was the second tier Danish team there's no question."

" It is an and then of the night I. I have been rightly write -- speak with my club any -- time it's which and I said last year even you know have a look at this case did the not a bass player in the US the."

" think he's physical enough that it English championship as you know very well your big strong guy Jason. -- parker as many things he's positioned Leo where he's he's great on the ball he reads the game these these these great teammate all those things. But it's a smash and grab rock fight every week in the championship."

" Yeah is he he certainly wouldn't be your. You know Iraqi village of platform on the back you do have to a big strong. I correct it's better applicant chat Marshall plan alongside him. You know who's gonna go win with the physical battle but if you want someone that can get on the ball and distribute distribute back in and get the ball -- very very good anticipation is excellent. -- game really well put. You know I I I certainly thought that that the reason for the kind of slow start that they had it was you know the possibility of having to retake that back line."

" Notes that's fair. Fair criticism I think you're that is one thing I will say in their defense if you take out the six nothing battery they took up in the mountains. And Salt -- in -- in Toronto knows about. That it's not easy go out there. He taken out the revolution averaging local game against."

" Yeah that and that and I think a lot of the credit for that have to -- technical. And and Paul -- as well because -- you know. Its its owner of the team that you guys very well well. That is the mentality of the team that comes from the managers and it it's set for an answer and want to that I notice when I was down their coverage became last year was that. Players all genuinely have a lot of fun in game -- very light -- but you know all your guys really seem to be. They've really seemed to be key to do well not for itself is cheap but for the managers if they've even received a hole in the -- Steve. And that that itself is worth ten points this season. Because players will go through the through the brick wall and into the pain barrier. If they have that team chemistry. -- and I I I think the perception appeared Toronto is that and it trial -- very precarious position right now because you in the Big East team. You know they've they've they've they've won their last -- on the pounds and you know. These -- it stated there in a position now where they want going to run and the view that truck -- to be struggling to keep up with them and make a play out."

" Well my final question for you Jason is how to -- a common approach tonight in terms of team selection we -- DC. -- fare so in the their champions league game. Last night in the -- service -- plus a minus one in terms of the usual starters as soon as they went down rule. All some you lose -- economy to a restaurant on and they get the penalty in the at least the data draw you know is it a conservative approach and say okay well you know we've got. You know two -- to work with in the big game on Saturday or is it you know you gotta you gotta get the result tonight we warned that Saturday morning."

" I think you have might increases approach is going to be -- best lineup on the pitch I could he wants to win the game tonight you know there's. -- he is set that any time through his tenure so far that he will always put out the best team he had in order to win the game yet which is the most important which is an excellent. So I think tonight's game in massive one for them. Qualifications to the group stage of the championed the use is that. It's almost a month see there must do for -- it's something that they absolutely have to do. And tonight schemes going to be very port because Puerto Rico coming in to be more field with eight and nine and behind the ball maker really difficult trying to hit them on the counterattack. And trial have to be creative enough to try to break them down. -- to I think they'll play their best available lineup tonight. And it -- you have. If they're lucky they get through without any injuries and be available for the came on mound Saturday."

" All right Jason really appreciate this expert insight and a look forward to seeing you here. On Saturday thanks the --"

" No could've brought back a look forward you know we can't."

" Cheers Jason to Boston Toronto FC team you want to switch town player. Also. Paul -- and you should know one of our main TV producers -- show -- brown were curious as well it's which it's strong. It's which influence around these days just got to stack. Polls all games and dvds show. Over. And tedious formats like in -- I have in my library and also give commissioners them some of those keeps America. On the injury front some good news. Centuries you know which -- review. Resume gas room like -- off the injury list altogether. Cigars and callousness upgraded to questionable with his hamstring strain. Five the risky yet you and 45 minutes and -- jewelry and cars out there at this time. Sorry still questionable but he's given it's all 45 minutes two weeks ago when. The second have some two consecutive wins it's. In that Taylor twelve I should mention Bruce. Of the ignored blog wrote me to point out that they have exclusive. Human it was that Taylor. From last week on the blog website but if you go to my most recent broadcast Booth bits one of the readers. Was archive delete that and it's worth any -- fans time to read that very candidate two via peca. You know it is insensitive so. Murderer. Or you birds you know it's not. It's something that everybody should read utilities that your perspective. It is want to see him back on the field but nobody more men themselves. -- Hopefully you know Taylor can get back. In August in in. We just don't know she's write its users. Our quick break you know that what Jerry Dobson from Toronto received media activists."

" David Beckham is back. Saturday obviously it's sixty that you stewardship fifty soccer icon David Beckham at Gillette Stadium -- the international -- the Los Angeles Galaxy comes into Cleveland to take on the revolution for the whole week time this year -- result of -- exclusive chance to see the phenomenon that is David Beckham. Be a part of of madness that cheer on the -- is able to beat LA. This is the most star studded -- we believe this summer and this is your chance to see -- limited quantities of tickets are on sale now and started just twenty dollars get -- now by calling the revolution ticket office at 1877. Emirates ticketmaster at 1874. -- 3000 or by logging on -- revolution -- dot -- David Beckham -- international celebrity and one of the world's greatest soccer -- this is -- one and only chance to see him in north -- don't get shut -- get your tickets now."

" Patriot place in Foxboro it was an ultimate shopping dining and entertainment destination New England."

" What's your patriot place experience. To the kids -- movie -- showcase cinema deluxe and finally went -- the birdies during the evening it was so much fun everyone loved it. We have a good night out at patriot place last weekend. A little shopping dinner at W knows it's just like the one in Boston and me drink the cutest little wine bar called -- it's billions patriot place for once in a lifetime experience everyday on. I hear about once a week -- angry deals Christmas shop -- and shoes off properly I'm a patriot place is located next to Gillette Stadium in Foxboro with convenient and free parking. Best pro shop in Eastern Mountain Sports that everything I need my camping and hiking trips and we love CBS clean -- It had a got a million TV and their outdoor deck with rain at Gillette Stadium felt cool log -- to."

" Patriot dash place dot com for more information. Patriot place every one wins the."

" All right as we continue. On in the past or Wednesday morning the risk indecency Toronto and see this coming Saturday Toronto hazard to discuss. Has an important digit -- tonight home. Islanders. Arizona that is being. Competing on multiple fronts. Here's our. And every."

" And considering. Toronto FC is Jerry Dobson Roger sports that. At least you play by play man and I'm no good to have you back on the charger."

" Great to -- knowledgeable about football."

" Well -- A lot of football on Toronto's played I's talkin'. We with Jason the boss about Toronto is a three foreign won in MLS. Since defeating the respect in the -- but they've also advocate compete in the Canadian championship. And they. I'm friendly with river plate. And so it's a full plate for Toronto and -- given the limitations of the squad depth of an analyst roster. That can't be easy for Chris commencement."

" Well it you know everybody stayed the same situation when your plan in the competition. I think probably what. What does -- a lot of the people around that even the supporters as well of the fact that you know they threw in the friendly. Right it can be used climbers each of the river plate one. More recently in which. The standard and Cora was injured in these young Canadian consumers eighties there pop. Central defender he got injured and -- and support that got the big circuit around the great coming up next week. You know what to do Puerto -- games surrounding -- an important game coming up. In New England. If the -- couldn't come at a worse time so when you -- at all opted. That have been right there."

" What do you think he would their propensity for allowing late goals it's down to Jerry I think that you that we discuss some of the guys you know Garcia a good organizer slow afoot. Marco Telesis had his struggles. By the injury -- now is an issue but it it again it is well I've been saying all along when you look on paper at the names. There on the team -- other than eighty fell as those to me look like Leo for five guys that you would see should. Comprise. -- and compose a very solid back line."

" Well I guess that they -- the -- they start to come up with solution. I think there's something like that it allowed. Eight more goals in the last fifteen minutes of the game in the -- yeah. It -- that they did so it's it's brutal but when you look at that as their friends and it and that's been a problem and they want they've never really have. -- so all of senator path. They're not who battled the wind marvell will -- And you need to commend the aptly it is football knowledge is lacking however still have a lot to learn defensively sometimes get caught on the wrong guy wrong side of plant. On the left -- it then it Brendan primarily. Adrian berry of the -- player but they missed another guy in the middle they prodded Nick Garcia. Our security -- the end experience solid defender. But -- very slow. And then you get -- a -- so we're already moving people in and out and for whatever reason they lose concentration they'd lose their focus and a lot fifteen that they can't keep it close and have enough problems. Perfect example I was the day. They were the better -- to 75 minutes. And it just let it get away by is the hard -- at this point I just think they don't have enough good quality on defenders on the fault."

" Yeah -- that's has to be the answer now. From a more global perspective Jerry. You know I think that it's important that the you know to look at the record at 775. There in the playoffs mix. And are definitely Hugo go back 24 months this you know they're a whole different level in terms of equality -- the strength of the team. In the war but does -- put pressure on mode Johnson and the rest of the organization. That's yeah adults -- out of the -- the way they have."

" Well you know I think it does then I think both supporters and people falling to me yeah people around the city I think. They feel there pressure on moan don't I'm not sure moan don't that it stealing it from Bob not call it mattered really he had. But when you look at -- he should be in the playoffs and right now they're there in the mix but they're they're actually out of the playoff spot right now. And when you look at that that -- conference standings and you look have been signaling -- 3 point back but with three games left with three games and then on Toronto. And that team playing so they gave the role in August. Revolution played so well at Gillette Stadium. I mean for all of the the very spot where our end and I think that it may not make the playoffs head should roll but. Not sure that what."

" The only certainly knows how to charm people move if nothing else now. His right taboo subject. You know -- a year or so ago Steve -- name is being bandied about as a possible. You know head coach. How secure is Chris commons. You know after taking over as an interim and do you still hear that -- name. Kicked around obviously they'd be -- be tampering for them talked to Steve. With though it's there's such a strong link between -- Steve. Going back to to their days playing for Scotland. You know it seems like you. You know that -- comments it in it was he makes the playoffs can't -- feeling very secure."

" Yeah certain there you're there we'll talk publicly and to be honest with you and he's the record what's going on there Steve -- they've had not come off lately at all but he made in fact sin and I think they're willing. To give it to recover. But I think they you have to accomplish one of these things that I got it may -- up. Whether it got to keep the ball rolling in the champions is it going to be Puerto Rico -- do what Montreal that plot that quickly and that it -- in the that competition. Only get one vote you think happens I. We'll be okay what if they fail in the champions league and they don't that the playoffs. I I think they have no choice but to replace him not saying about the answer however it still needs a better players. In order to pull --"

" I believe that that Toronto won three of four against Montreal and Vancouver qualifying. For the champions league it. If you're. In your view how did this year how to Toronto stack up next to those it's the second division teams it was -- the expected. Difference in level because clearly Toronto prioritize that this year."

" Well you know what it. It is so hard Brad I mean it on any given -- in that anybody can beat anybody. Because when Ferraro played Vancouver and Montreal in the first game or the ball. They're looked to be. A world of difference in terms of the level flight between the -- it look like they're located at the Vancouver Montreal ever be able to be wrong. Then probably go to Vancouver. And Vancouver looked like a much better fight -- not given day -- and Toronto prevailed and they ever Montreal and through what troubles in the that the win. You know -- In the end I think we're all want the better side but if it's so -- he has ignored the league in on any given day anybody can beat anybody and I think that even -- it's over the better in the US itself Hillary don't. Will be no -- for Toronto mean you all saw what happened while you're -- in the champions league with with the public. Now I don't know what the vehicle was doing in terms of prioritizing then you would know better than being made. Maybe in the league with more important at that point I -- feeling a little into a big wheel at the end anyway yeah."

" Yeah that's right right right to the wall there's a guy in San Jose August 16 -- they were there goose is cooked after that and -- public fill I think. Two things run on either side that you make of -- what you well."

" I I think I think the thing to keep in mind that. MLS club can't take anything for granted and I think sometimes they do I think -- they get all -- themselves when they went a couple of games. And then they get her -- get it. You know been in the bought by I mean -- not supposed to be as good and I think that every team fall prey to that scenario sometimes and it certainly happened the girl he."

" You know we'll have always felt like Montreal. Is different than other USO teams you know -- do some of those games for fox soccer channel three seasons and I made several trips up to do impact games. And because of the the French Canadian allegiance there's certain guys -- me who we're absolutely. MLS dollar players you look at that toward people like that and and in. Because of -- people want to live in Montreal to meet -- Metropolis cultural center great tradition and ownership. To me they've always been -- team can play with -- that you look at Puerto Rico Colin Clark was an MLS head coach and he's got guys like bill got that out there. Who have been MLS starters and know how to win know how to manage to tactics and in a way legacy I think -- real -- completely agree with your. Where they're getting back to Toronto I -- ask about a couple players in -- to -- after all eager about first of all cigar bars or because Jason I couldn't figure it."

" would Archie Griffin."

" Okay that's easier and that's what I've been saying all along so I -- look real good -- Canada in that went over Jamaica we are at the game no -- in in the gold cup. And I've seen him you know theories USO teams over the years. Do you think that he can make an impact coming to this two."

" Yeah I think he can I he'd -- kinda guy. That doesn't need many chances in order to score and that's what you need draws -- failing and it happened a lot of teams in the years. They get recant his little capitalized. But not top of the Toronto far too often mean Chad Barrett. He was up there in terms of shot on target earlier in the evening was one of the league leaders and yet he had only wonder who pulled the -- many chances so -- goal. Al lingered you walk in the Robocop in the first game of the gold cop -- one -- he scored second game of the woke up one chance he scored again. And that's not what he brings. He's not he's not a stylish player he's not gonna run around the ball at a -- He's -- target guy gonna bring it down parted and and and score or get a reflection or whatever but he he will bury it chances and and not why I think he'll be effective."

" And what about problem he's he's beginnings and start especially with I think crone now mix of international -- He's a guy who's sort of enigmatic to -- because he showed such promise in Argentina it was a regular starter. You know you at a young age for us arias and draw and now it seems like he you know is -- just or one of those guys got a great feat but he's not the physical presence what is he -- there seems to be I'm missing. Ingredient for him being the full package is that unfair."

" Well you know what people people watching game with probable be and two guys -- what the same game and how come oil it completely different viewpoint of how publicly perform some people think he's no good at all other people think that he's on the verge. Being a breakthrough player I tend to be in the latter camp I think that at the beginning. -- it was a struggle for him because over the years since he -- believe you know that -- These sort of walked his way he has yet to -- trouble than they never seen the to get back on track and it has taken him awhile here but they have been plastered in gained more recently. That that tell you -- these indicate the need. That that he can contribute to this team that I think he will he started this -- the odd goal. The game so called against Columbus game could've been 321 that would have been over off the -- tropical is that it into the net. So I think I think he's going to make it different for the united I think he beekeeper."

" That's too much information Hannity and are your personal life. But. You know you're you're at a film mode and that's. -- analysts the lawless and which now. Let's -- it and you're able to combine your two interests. Only maybe it'll skiing into that so I'm. Your -- our departure you played in that game the reserve can't against Real Salt Lake and it took about two and the Maryland attack by the people."

" Yes totally I ordered it but you tolerance."

" Are. -- violent bunch who knew and when you. Loans and at this nevertheless some element if it did it would violence."

" Yeah it's these were not this is not the Mormon Tabernacle Choir rehearsals. -- them more I don't know America and western -- court order. And you know that we we basically the Wii is start the bus that's -- a credit. Let's get to the -- personal Houston. Talk about who knew who knew the Rezko put together ninety minutes like that especially their defensive performance."

" I was very -- for the defense especially paperback for were very organize. So talk to you nickel a little bit with an ankle that time they dropped about -- little -- hardened and at times are little or put the drop back through deep. That's what they're a little hot but I think in general. They're positioning on the you'll -- very good. Providing you know the right amount of space in between them in the -- is not letting it get too stretched not letting it get to compact. And you know I was just in side talking to Geoff Cameron. Who played attacking midfield -- game. And -- now all of our he appeared to populate that you know what we didn't create any clear cut chip. And and I think considered Houston. Is that you know one of the leading scoring team. In the -- But the great compliment to the defense of of the of the revolution."

" Yeah when you look at it there is that you're the break you know -- got purely on speed. They're -- there were a couple things off of set pieces which you expect especially Brad Davis in there and Davis had a cider from distance. But I think that I think gets a fair assessment of the game meanwhile the revolution. Created multiple chances. And you know it's -- that has the -- disease and Steve Ralston in -- two different thing but it was a team a team effort."

" There wasn't any -- movement off the ball well permitted them to an -- but you know what -- look back on I think -- all the -- shipments. It came from -- Kerry meant so Cox. -- area. Along ball out of about back from have at all and I mean it was everybody -- country yet it spoke he. Well and they completely into a speech he could be the player can turn. But everybody involved even with a role in their union all -- I -- well and I think that that."

" Yeah no I I agree and it's on the that they can build on it puts him in the playoff mix although some people are you talking about the revolution again I think that. Team confidence in the -- now -- sticker on Saturday than maybe if you've taken a step back. You know you accounts this is now upgraded to questionable and noodles and the rest of looking. More whole than they had -- so. Speaking -- the dynamo. You're out their cover the All-Star game and if you -- portal -- Angola on the UN to Stuart Holden. And he was you know he's in the the projected starting lineup for tonight and he was shaking his head about the US reforms Mexico. I'd be remiss if I did the show in the wake of that five -- defeated in Korea wants what's your take on."

" You know it might look what I inventory 1000. It was really a very important win -- Mexico they got the monkey off their back regarding US. They go -- and conference. It has not -- significant law. For the US and the Democrats look like --"

" Please see the same way I just want to know you're doing."

" Mexico needed this US kind of compulsive often sit well it's you know what all of our starters it was an important part of the didn't mean anything. -- you don't get a bit -- person up so what are. We're focusing on August 12 will bring in all the begun the player away."

" Well it's funny I started some pretty high up the food chain. In the revolution world to remain unnamed by. He did not -- the game but when he heard that that they've lost five -- in in jay heaps got sent off. His reaction was well good somebody had to figure -- five nothing at home and I sort of lottery actually both cards -- soft the penalty call. You know you could eat it -- easily could have not given them -- call there. But. You know on the it looked like in the fourth and fifth goals again as one's eyes moving around because of the AC Milan game. But everything I saw it looked like guys were getting closed down in the end you know three hill they acted in and and and you can't do that against that."

" But -- well. And you know I think the boat that went down when you know and over by the evidence reported on and that it that it -- up the US more. -- what you know what they're an autopsy for Q."

" Well they came on August 12 is gonna have a government knows for sure all right we're not the All-Star game honestly. -- recovery MLS professionally now for eleven years. And I've never been doing all start. I so -- no idea what it's like you know people say it's a great times lot of on the events are good big schmooze all that. And you know for that reason I'm sorry I'm not out there you know it. -- MLS stars when they play these big farm teams have a perfect record so there's something on the line here. You ML if it's ever to instill their pre season and Ellis is busy couple of the big guys projected starters like there -- sorry which origins of so how does the game itself set up for you."

" Well I think it's tough for both teams recovered and obviously because they're interpreted -- another come up to the altitude and a deal would that makes it difficult for them. On the other side of Ramallah through -- put the other. Now they have to somehow farcical he's editor of sort of put together I think that ultimately come down to and this is what you're molest you have both done well against. But most of what they have something -- crew and so they go up there and it put a little more effort into it than it is the visiting European team. -- and so I think I imagine will be some opening night of though aren't trying to simulate the third -- team. You know wants to do nothing gonna win it well so. But it never felt I could see him molesting you I would go to clip from a lot global change came single handedly. And you know there's still where power out there for the analysts are. So which of the far."

" I -- block I was wearing number seventy is is his number based on what how old you books in a particular again."

" But that the product of which I don't have a -- what you do or who -- it didn't. And then you know. Your armor -- real political port number -- seven in."

" In honor Danny Williams oh yeah. Yeah and then then that's a worthy -- well our hearts go to the wounds for sure. Hey I look at lineups. Is the -- right -- Analyst says for forward so it's like a 334. On the on the leaflet signed it. Is -- are -- gonna get torn to bits of explaining his friend and even with this altitude advantage of most of these analysts aren't aren't used to create Hornets."

" I think though on the way or public or sports and ultimately who drops yeah. And I wasn't about Letterman who I haven't seen a -- 3COM and."

" I'll leave Marshall -- the three defenders. You could put -- in front of them is a stopper no diamond -- our camera Conde and Chad Marshall."

" It would come -- like no it from what I know right now. Cameron it's supposed to start and outside of the right."

" Marshall in the middle cardinal after all and Becker on cry in front of them is a stopper."

" You. Yeah W could also -- convict bill I think that the -- smart here."

" He is but he's not -- as a starter right now."

" Now they have to change things around at the -- Martin middle opponent and ended up to four. Both to get that whole left side of -- know each other very well."
