Bradley Carnell, coach of the Philadelphia Union, reflects on a hectic schedule as the team prepares for an upcoming match against Toronto FC. Despite challenges, including a recent 3-3 draw with Inter Miami, the team remains strong, with impressive results over the month. Carnell is confident about managing player fatigue through effective rotation and is eager to maintain competitiveness. He also acknowledges the strengths of Toronto FC under Robin Fraser, particularly their transition game, which poses a challenge for the Union.
I've enjoyed this process, I've experienced a lot of busy months, but I don't know if I've ever experienced one like this one. I won't again for quite some time, but I'm enjoying it.
Every coach and every player, when you speak to them, all they want to do is play games. I think the way we're distributing the minutes, the way that we're rotating, that's kept the health within the group very good.
It's about how he's approached working with that group of players and how he's starting to form and transition them into his game model.
I would say they're one of the most transitional teams we're going to face, so we're going to have to be aware of that.
