Press Conference

Montreal 3, Chicago Fire FC 2

Q. Just wondering, you've had a run of games recently after waiting a long time for something like this. What has it meant to you to finally be able to show what you can do consistently on an MLS pitch?

ANDRE REYNOLDS: I mean, it's great to be able to represent the city and this club. Obviously everybody chooses to be a professional athlete because they want to be on the pitch.

So having that opportunity has been great. Obviously it's been a long time coming but I've had a lot of time to learn and now just focused on contributing more and just continuing to be in good form.

Q. The team has just three games in the regular season; how concerned are you with the remaining points?

ANDRE REYNOLDS: Yeah, obviously we knew our situation coming into this game. We would have liked to win out the rest of our games, but obviously things happen.

But we are going to keep fighting. We are not going to give up because we are still in the hunt and we still believe in ourselves as a team.

So yeah, we are going to go back into the week, prepare for this next game and try to get nine points out of these next three.

Q. Just what's it been like for you to play on the wing, and given that's not your natural position and where you've been getting opportunities the last couple weeks?

ANDRE REYNOLDS: It's been different, obviously. You know, you just get adjusted to different movements. You get the ball in different positions.

But like I said earlier, everybody that is a professional athlete wants to be on the field so it's just about learning quickly, which I feel like I'm starting to do and starting to figure out, movements I need to make, starting to get comfortable getting the ball in different position.

And yeah, I'm happy to be on the field and to contribute to the team in any way possible.
