"You can see that Timo's going to be a special player for us. It's going to take a little time to get his fitness and his rhythm, but he's a special player. He's going to be a great addition to our team."
"I'm very happy to score my first goal. It's always important for every player on the pitch, but especially for strikers, to score goals and make assists. It helps you build a lot of confidence, to build trust from the team."
"A lot of the players who are playing now got beat up last year to get the experience they needed to be where they are today. It was a real learning tool last year for a number of our guys; we suffered a bit, but it's paid off this year."
Timo Werner scored his first MLS goal for the San Jose Earthquakes in a 4-1 victory over Los Angeles FC. He has played five games this season, contributing three assists. Coach Bruce Arena believes Werner will become a special player for the team as he gains fitness and rhythm. The Earthquakes are currently joint-top of the Western Conference, benefiting from the experience gained last season. Arena emphasizes the growth of the players and their readiness for the current season.
