This is your second year in MLS and your second year in the United States. What did you take from your experience last year? What do you hope to see this year? "Last year was pretty exciting for me and pretty tough, too. I came to a much different league than I was used to back home. There is a lot of traveling. The style of play is different. The physicality is much higher in this league. It was a big challenge for me coming here. They also told me that my first year here will be all about adapting to a new system. I know that this year, everyone will expect more from me. I just hope I can contribute more to this club and keep my level as high as possible this season. Last season, I think there were too many ups and downs in my game. I need to build on my consistency."
