ASN Morning Read: Jurgen Keeps Beating a Dead Horse
U.S. national team coach (yet again) made his thoughts known about fitness, the structure of the MLS season and American players returning to play domestically; Heath Pearce's European Odyssey 2.0 begins.
While the exodus of Americans from Europe continued in winter, Heath Pearce went in the other direction. He spoke to ASN about the move to Sweden. “I felt that I left a lot on the table in Europe,” Pearce said. “I felt that I hadn’t pushed myself as hard and as long as I could. I felt this was the time, being healthy again, to really go and see what I’ve got. I look forward to the pressure of having to win in a city that demands winning every week. I look forward to the pressure from the media, fans, and to the depth of squads that force you to perform week-in, week-out – where if you don’t, you will lose your spot.”
