Neil Roberts Quotations

We're getting quality chances, we just gotta start finishing. We just need to keep composed and do what we're doing.

We wanted to try something different to get a spark going. We wanted to find something different that works for them.

We didn't want to play for a tie. We felt a tie would have been just as disappointing as a loss. So we said 'go for it' and put three up top and three in the back.

Obviously we've been having some trouble scoring goals lately. We're telling the guys they've just got to be patient. We're getting good chances, the goals will come.

Neil really started to pick it up in the later stages of the game. He's a very fit person, and Neil's a very good player.

I would say he's pretty close to 100 percent,

If we had kept it up at that pace it would have been 88-2,

I didn't like the urgency, the pace of the game in the first half. We really didn't make dangerous crosses in and make the goalie make any difficult decisions. After Roland's semi-breakaway at the beginning, we really didn't have it.

I felt bad for Zach because we left him so exposed. There were a lot of goals off rebounds and I think that on at least four of the goals, he made the initial save.

He had a compression fracture, and so it basically kills the end of the femur, ... So what you have to do is try to get the blood circulation back to that area.

I think the guys know they are very close to being a great team, ... And it will come.

I think the big thing today was really playing well,

I think what you saw today was a poorly motivated, poorly coached team from BU,

Referee says you're allowed to do that once. Each guy is allowed to do that once, what can you say - that's what the referee says. You're allowed one shot apiece, and I guess if you use 18, 20 guys, you're allowed 20 shots like that.

I think once we get the team on the field, we're better than last year. We're stronger and more balanced.

We'd rather be on the list come November,

We played them well last year and we want to do the same this time,

We had our chances in the beginning, we didn't put them in. It was poor marking on us on the corner kick, and they took advantage of it.

We played Notre Dame well. It could have gone either way. After the first night, I was pretty pleased.

We're struggling offensively. We're just trying to find the right combination using inexperienced kids that aren't, maybe, ready to go yet, and we're trying to force-feed them, basically.

We want to defend well and be able to possess the ball. And attack them quick.

You hope that every game is not close, but in this game it doesn't happen that way. The disappointing thing is when we give up two restart goals.

You have to play with the cards you're dealt.

Zach made three very good saves. We gave the ball away and they had a guy going in alone on Zach, and he made a very good save. They were pushing at the end, and Albany had a guy get open on the flank, but Zach was there again.

Zach made some great saves. He deserved better.

They play three up-top and try to come at you offensively, ... It will definitely be a tough game, especially at their place.

It's been a struggle because of the situation, but they've dealt with it extremely well. I might have been on the suicide watch, but they were doing fine with it.

I walked past the entry and thought 'what a wonderful piece of furniture the Cleveland gallery has'.

It took a while, didn't it? It feels good, especially to get a win on the road. The players fought hard.

Against IU is not the time you want to have to break guys in at new positions.
