Sometimes a pinch of sadism is the ingredient that makes victory taste that little bit sweeter.
I came to New York City as a player, so my objective is to take the team as high as possible, preferably to victory. If that helps Major League Soccer grow, then that's welcome, too, but I was signed as a New York City FC player and to do what's best for the team.
