Q: I would like to know what you think of the French team and if you have French players that you like?

FA: Yeah. My favorite player is Adan. He is my favorite player and obviously I love the French team. I was going for them in the World Cup in 1998 and World Cup 2002. Unfortunately they didn’t do too well, but the French team has got some power in there. They have some of the best players I have ever seen. What more can I say?

Q: Do you have desire to play in Europe? And is there any out-clause in your contract that would allow you to go to a European team before the six years expire?

FA: Yeah, obviously I do have aspirations to play in Europe. Everyone does. You want to try to prove your talent against some of the best players in the world and that is where you are going to do it. So yeah.

Q: Is there an ability for you contractually for you to do that before the end of the six-year contract with the MLS.

FA: Sure.

Q: Is there any timetable? Do you want to stay in the MLS two years, three years…

FA: I don’t know that right now. I am just going to keep playing and when the time comes, I’ll explore my options.

Q: Earlier you were mentioning how you like as a hobby going to the mall. What is that experience like for you now?

FA: It is not too cool anymore. You know, you go to the mall and you just get mobbed by people. You have really no privacy and no time to just hang out with your friends and have fun. It is still fun. It just depends on the days. Some days it is bad and some days it is real good where everybody can just go and hang out and have fun.

Q: You get mobbed by whom?

FA: It is mostly teenagers. And it is mostly girls. I am not complaining by the way.

Q: Do you have a special girl in your life?

FA: Not really. I don’t have a girlfriend or anything right now.

Q: How do you get to practice?

FA: My mom.

Q: So she is acting as your official chauffer?

FA: Yeah. She is not working right now, so she has time to do it. And she loves watching me play. So she takes me, stays and then watches practice everyday and then takes me home afterwards.

Q: Do you guys share a lot of the intimacies that go on with the team, if you practice well or you don’t practice well…

FA: Yeah, Yeah. Yeah. We always do.
