Inter Miami must focus on the MLS regular season after being eliminated from the Concacaf Champions Cup.
The focus will be 100% on Dallas. When the time comes to start the preparation for Miami, we'll continue to evaluate them like we do any other team, but we look forward to the opportunity. We don't take anything for granted at this club. We have a saying that we turn every single page every single day.
The Dolphins (2-7), which have had a Pop-A-Shot mini basketball hoop in the team's locker room at the practice facility all season, had the arcade-style game missing Thursday. Earlier this season, the Ravens removed a Ping-Pong table and other games from their locker room at 1-5 and have since won their last two, including winning in Miami last week. The Dolphins, though, previously maintained that the Pop-A-Shot was not a distraction.
Speaking about Manchester United, five-time Ballon d'Or winner Cristiano Ronaldo was critical of some the players at his former club, but manager Ruben Amorim believes he and his team should be focusing on the present and the future, and that's what they're doing.
"I've said it a million times to you guys -- I don't think I've obviously said it enough to our team -- the goal is to go 1-0 every week," LaFleur said Monday. "And it pisses me off when we start talking about things outside of the next game. Things that are way down the road. Like, focus on, keep the focus on the present, on the now, and worry about getting better each and every day."
"I know that the guys understand where we're at as far as the opportunity we have," Roberts said. "And yeah, I would expect them to take it and run and seize the opportunity, without me having to kind of bring it to light. I mean, it's right there. This is a great opportunity that we have, and you got to embrace it. You got to want to be out there. You got to have fun competing. And it just seems like the last couple nights, at some points it was an unrecognizable ballclub. We still got a lot of talent. We're still in a decent spot, but we've got to go play. We got to play better. We do."
