“Our style of play at Nashville is going to be what we call sort of controlled aggression... We want to simplify this complex game for them in an effort to give them the confidence to go out and perform and win games and pursue postseason play and pursue silverware.” #EveryoneN
"As long as we're able to give players clear roles and clear responsibilities, you can actually push them outside of things they thought they were first capable of."

“We definitely want to see a route to something a little bit more positive with this team and maybe it’s the out of possession and the pressing that actually does it. A lot of times we think that that has to be something that comes with the ball but doesn’t necessarily have to be the case.”

“What Nashville really needed was a high level central midfielder that could take the game, could progress the ball, be one of those answers when you need to unlock a lower block defense. And I just still don’t see that from Nashville.”

“It was a learning curve in terms of the personnel and the type of players, one, that are not only going to be successful here... but two, have got real potential to actually make the jump and be the right fit and profile for Nashville.”

“I couldn’t be happier at where Tyler [Boyd]’s at. He’s made an immediate impact. A very intelligent footballer, very talented footballer and a very versatile footballer. And on top of that, he’s settled into the group very, very well.” #EveryoneN
“Dru [Yearwood] has the ability to get higher up the field. I think as we see him settling to this group... I think we’re going to see a player who has certainly the qualities to join the attack but also the recovery, energy and tenacity to break up attacks.” #EveryoneN
“Everything that Sam has done from the moment he’s walked through the door from the off-season has been of a very high level.”
Gary Smith spoke about Sam Surridge, Forster Ajago and Nashville SC’s striker group in general. Full press conference up at our YouTube channel. #EveryoneN
“We are expecting a lot from Sam [Surridge]... I think you’re going to start to see maybe very similar to what you saw from Hany [Mukhtar] from year one to year two. I think there’s a really high ceiling for Sam and what he’s capable of doing with this group.” #EveryoneN
