After a while things start to fall for you. Then suddenly you start scoring easy goals against the goalkeepers who were making great saves against you. I know what it's like. Conteh is in his first year in MLS and has had to endure pairing up with different strike partners from Ronald Cerritos to Wojtek Krakowiak, Ian Russell to Khodadad Azizi. I wasn't expecting it to be this fast actually.
People run all day.
This is the first team I've played on where there are defenders who can run with me if I leave them behind. In Mexico I used to blow past defenders and once they gave me the room I was gone. To think that it was a matter of chance that the African native is even playing soccer. He immigrated to the United States with his family when he was 14 and said he was resigned to giving up on his soccer dreams. I didn't pick up a soccer ball for two years.
