On Germany: “I don’t think they (Germany) have many weaknesses. The only thing is that if we can keep it tied up as long as possible, they’ll start panicking because they have to play Yugoslavia next.”
On the strengths of the U.S. team: “Our strengths are discipline and organization. We can wear teams down, as we are extremely strong defensively.”
Cobi Jones
On his recent burst of goal scoring: “I attribute it to the combination of having time off at the end of last year with personal weight training and a new position on the field.”
On the Germany game: “It is important for us to show that we can play [against teams like Germany], especially for players that have played in Germany and for those that will play there in the future.”
On the team’s speed and skill: “We are not wasting our sprints. This team has the ability to hold the ball up front giving us time to regain our legs.”
David Regis
On his relationship with other players: “I feel very comfortable with the entire team. The day I received my citizenship some players called me singing the national anthem.”
