WHAT THEY’RE SAYING
“(We are) playing against a good side on Wednesday. A lot of individual
qualities, as a team playing well together, as well. Playing in a system that’s
not always easy to play against, but we need to prepare ourselves in the best
way we can to give ourselves a chance and to make it very difficult for them.
It’s a team that’s been doing very well of course in the past, that’s why they’re
second in the league. They’ve been working together for like a long period of
time already, a lot of players, as well with the coach. So, that’s understandable.
But, it’s a challenge for us after last weekend’s game, the result that we had,
how the players feel. We’re looking forward to this game as well.”
- FCC head coach Jaap Stam on the upcoming match against Philadelphia
“I have only good words about Philly. I had an amazing three years over there…
the coach, Jim Curtin, (he is an) amazing guy, amazing coach. I have only high
words for him and his staff. They gave me everything over there to be the lead-
er of the team. Last year, we had amazing season, the best season in the history
of Philly. It’s nice to play against them. I’m happy to see my friends also, the
striker Kacper Przybylko, (Jamiro) Monteiro, Bedoya, all these guys. (Brandon)
Aaronson, my son over there. (It will be) nice to see them all. The emotion will
be high in this game, because I want to win. I play for Cincinnati right now. It’s
nice in the beginning, you can say (hello), but then when the game starts, it’s
finished – I don’t know them, anymore. So, you want to win this game, and then
after the game we can talk when we take these three points.”
- FCC midfielder Haris Medunjanin on playing against his former team
