About Me:: Twenty one year old lover of the beautiful game. I am from Tallahassee, Florida. Kicked the ball around since birth, grew up with it, matured in high school and at the competitive club level. Moved to the state of North Carolina to perform at the collegent level where I immediately won a position in the centre of the midfield where I started and played every game of the season. Life took me away from college, and in turn college ball, but I have not lost much and am the same player if not better as I am still madly obsessed with the sport and much play pretty much on a daily basis. I am getting to the point though where I need to make an extreme attempt at getting back into the circuit and going to the next level. In this game, twenty one isn't young anymore. In a heartbeat I would pack my bags overnight and move for a good opportunity. I have good references. You would like me.

What best describes your "state of game"?: Player

Favorite Style of Play, Players, Coaches, Moments, Teams/Clubs:: I have been praised wonderfully. But I'd like to not be one to toot my own horn. I have a great head for the game, am a supurb passer, have good pace that not often needs use because of intelligent usage of movement, great touch, a bit trickey on the ball and am very strong in tackles and good in the air for someone who is 5'10. Asking me, I would reply that my best football quality is my vision/feel for the game in combination with my passing ability.

I have German heritage but throughout life I have been influenced by my surrounding football environment. The head coach of my childhood club was an A Class British gaffer, my high school coach was Argentinian. Being from Florida my main influence is South American. I lived with Brazilians in college. A Columbian man that used to come watch my games in high school once termed my style of play as "pasado".

To name my favorite players would be absurd, I respect all of the greats for each of their contribution to the game. Zizou is a God. Ronaldinho a magician. Maradona the original great. Pele; a king. Cruyff; a genius. Beckenbauer; Der Kaiser. Falaco the futsal player is ridiculous as well as his fellow mate in sport Bouka. Gazza; amazing. Maldini; class. I could almost go on forever.

I must say, I admire a handful of coaches greatly but the stand out for me is Brian Cloughe, I love his personality and charisma. Who knows though, Keano might not turn out half bad..

Again "moments" is a silly question for me. My fingers would fall off before I finish trying to type them all in. Even though I am a die hard FC Bayern fan, a great moment in football is them losing to Man Utd for the treble. On the flip-side of that is when Roy Makkay scored the fastest goal in Champions League history last year vs Real Madrid. Zizou's goal v Bayer Leverkusen to win the Champions League was very special. How Brasil used to pass, particularly the Carlos Alberto "wondergoal" in Mexico '70. Want a new favorite moment? Turn on the tube at any time and check out Barca.
