Alexi Lalas Quotations

There are companies all over the world that recognize this point about New York. Other teams that play in Giants Stadium also reflect this.

We'll see what happens. You can never predict what Red Bull is going to do.

On the left hand side and the right hand size we look to Peter and Chris to provide service, to go up and down the flanks, which is something we admittedly didn't do enough of last year.

He's a young player that I think everybody recognizes could be a great player. The fact is that I think he's a long way off, but he needs to start getting in the environment.

He has produced, albeit at a lower level, but we think he can make the transition and make it very quickly.

I think that this is an incredible opportunity for our organization, and is going to make us stronger.

Two weeks ago before this even happened, we were poised on and off the field to do some incredible things.

If you want to become a super club you have to be ready to play against super clubs. In the past couple of years, we've seen a mentality that has emerged that our players aren't on the field to get autographs. It's an opportunity to prove what we've been shouting from the rooftops for a long time, that we've been producing quality players and we can play with the best teams in the world.

Maurice has been a revelation, on and off the field,

The latest indication we have is that Amado is experiencing some delay in getting his visa. We understand that and we can accept that as a plausible reason for him not to be here.

Red Bull is committed to providing not only quality domestic soccer, but also quality international soccer. You can't get much better than Barcelona. Our entire organization is excited about the opportunity to play one of the premier teams in the world.

I remember being in buses, hotel lobbies and bars leading up to the 1994 World Cup talking with guys about how great it would be to have a legitimate league of our own, so getting on the plane in Italy to return and be part of the first year of MLS was one of the proudest moments of my life.

David Beckham is not bigger than the Galaxy.

There's no honor in soccer

I've got to think he's the only guy who smiled when he walked up to the podium. I love that about it and he brings that personality on the field.

This is my first FIFA Women's World Cup . For me, to see how I have reacted to this tournament...I'm totally in.

While I'm excited about the opportunity to return to the L.A. Galaxy, I'm also sad to be leaving this team and this area after such a short period of time.

The Red Bulls are committed to entertaining our fans before, during and after our games.

We like to look at this as an upgrade.

Doug Hamilton established a standard of excellence for this club, on and off the field, and it is our responsibility to continue to live up to that standard.

During his years in exile, Steve has grown into a better player and person. I'm sure our fans are excited to welcome back one of the most popular personalities ever to don the red and black.

There's nothing in our lease that says anything about what the name of the team has to be.

I see them in a different light. I've seen their best and worst on and off the field. To be even grouped in the same sentence with them is a tremendous honor.

I've been corresponding with his people and different people within MLS and within our organization have different contacts down there to try and get a hold of him because he's not the easiest guy to get a hold of. From what I've heard back, the feedback we've gotten, is that he is en route. I'll believe it when I see it.

As long as we remember the stadium doesn't play the games, we should be all right.

This is an incredible opportunity to return to a team that I know and love.

This is a tremendous opportunity to join an already established, championship team and to direct their continued growth from both the business end as well as player personnel, ... I would like to thank Tim and everyone at AEG for their faith in me and pledge to the entire San Jose Earthquake organization and their fans that we will continue to build a club that will be successful, profitable and respected both on and off the field.

This move enabled us to free up cap room, acquire valuable allocation money and add a experienced and rugged forward to our roster.

There wasn't a eureka moment when I sat up in bed and said this is what I needed to do. It was a combination of a lot of different conversations and ultimately it comes down to gut and where you feel you need to go and where you feel your future is and there came a point where I recognized this was the right decision for me at the time.

As we've all seen, we have Americans in desperate need of help, ... No MLS team has even worn orange and the more unique and valuable an auction item is, the more money it can potentially raise.

It very well could be. I haven't talked to him or his people. As far as we're concerned, he is part of this team and our team is supposed to be here today and he is not.

I miss Doug just like everybody else does. If I can do my job half as well as he did, the Galaxy will be fine.

In the past two weeks we've experienced a sea of change within our organization and these moves are in accordance with our new direction and philosophy.

But I told them that means nothing. We have a challenge to make the playoffs.

He's a part of this team, and our team was supposed to be here today, and he's not. He's in violation of his contract, and we're not going to pay him. It's as simple as that. I'm not going to the ends of the earth to track down Amado Guevara. I want him here.

I can't think of two better games to have him in than our opener down in D.C. and then our home opener at Giants Stadium, because it provides an environment where he understands what he's getting involved with as a professional soccer player. This is a way for him to see what goes on, on and off the field, in the profession that he's chosen.

I don't think there's a fan out there who will see this as a negative. People are going to be pleasantly surprised. Many will be utterly amazed.
