Chris Gbandi Quotations

I guess if people label me a bust, they might have something to back that up since I haven't done that much. That's fair to say with all my injuries but injuries are obviously part of sports. I think after this year, a lot of that perception will change. I think once people see me run up and down the flank, they will realize that I know the game, love the game and know how to play it.

I set a simple goal for this season, just to come to practice every single day. It kind of sounds funny but I feel like when I'm out there practicing and getting better every single day, the games will take care of themselves. If I can practice every day, that means I am staying healthy and good things will happen for me.

It's been up and down. The first couple of years, people expected a lot out of me and I wasn't able to provide it because I wasn't healthy. Now that I'm fully fit, I think a lot of people will be surprised with what I'm capable of doing. I'm looking forward to the season and showing what I'm capable of doing.

And I think maybe it added to the pressure that the game was on national TV.
