What do you think SSFC needs as a team?
Looking at the way we have played recently, I believe that we have all the right pieces in place. We just need to keep our composure, trust our team mates, play with a smart energy and most importantly stay fit. I think that everybody showing up every game will help a lot because when you look at our last game for example, we could have used a little bit more help to win it.
Considering SSFC's recent performance, where do you think the team will finish at the end of the season?
I like the way we are playing right now and if we keep it up we can still end up in the top three spot.
