Mike Giuliano Quotations

We know we are a good team and we want to turn it around. Our sense of urgency comes from knowing we are not playing as well as we should be.

We made good adjustments at halftime. We committed more to denying them the ball.

We haven't been starting very fast, but we've been ending games very well.

Washington is a young team, but they're very good. This is the best team we've beaten since I've been here.

Emotionally, this (win) was so big for us. We played hard for 90 minutes and actually got better as the game went on. (San Diego) is much better than their record indicates. This (win) was a major step forward for us.

The win was fulfilling because we beat Washington in front of a big home crowd.

It's frustrating. We played great until the last seven minutes. We just couldn't finish (the game). But this was our third game on the road in five days against three very good teams. To be down by a goal on the road at halftime and to come back showed a lot of character.

Soccer teams change so dramatically from week-to-week, that to get reports from people from three weeks ago doesn't really do you any good.
