John Ellinger Definitely Quotations

It was definitely disappointing to see how they scored. We should have done better at that moment to win the ball and deal with the situation, but other than that we did really well defensively.

We definitely competed. It's frustrating. You feel bad for guys because you feel they competed for 90-plus minutes, but you didn't come away with a point. It's something we can definitely build on.

We definitely competed. I feel bad for the guys. They competed for 90 plus minutes. You're just asking for a break, just for a ball to bounce your way. That's all it's going to take to turn it around.

It just proves basically how tough it's going to be for roster spots. It's definitely going to be competitive as we move forward.

A loss definitely kind of puts us out. Not mathematically, but common sense tells us we're out.

We feel -- and probably Chivas feels the same way too -- you definitely get punished for your mistakes. Good teams make the ball bounce their way and sometimes we get frustrated with it not happening for us. We've had a couple games where we've said, 'Nothing bad is going to happen, we're going to make our own breaks,' but to actually say that and then play that way, it doesn't always work out.

We're definitely hoping so. I think winning is infectious and losing is as well.

They said they didn't play 'United soccer,' ... They pride themselves on their work ethic. They're definitely a hard-working team and we'll have to match that.

I definitely felt that we competed throughout and I think we can do even better with that. We just have to eliminate mistakes. If you can do that, you're always in every game, especially on the road. I think that is as competitive as we've played on the road since I've been here.
