PHILOSOPHY:
I believe that your first opponent in the game is the ball. If you cannot master the ball, you cannot master the game. By being technically sound and creative as a player, you are an unpredictable player. A team full of unpredictable players is a dangerous team. Also, I firmly believe that how you act on a soccer field is how you act in life. Thus, I work every week on creating and nurturing a winning mentality (discipline, hard work, competitiveness, being a good teammate) for all players and teams.
