Reyna's MLS move an 'easy decision'

Claudio Reyna

I don't like to really talk about it -- but some of them have been big, big mistakes by physios in England," Reyna said. "Playing six games with a broken ankle when no one knew it didn't help, playing with a torn muscle that a doctor in Germany said was the biggest he's seen in 20 years. These are the things that never came out and I never told anyone because at the end, you're injured or you're fit."


Reyna, though, said he feels great now mentally and physically and is excited to work with new Red Bulls fitness coach Pierre Barrieu, formerly of the U.S. national team.


"Personally I feel good. All the fitness tests I did at Man City, I was always amongst the top," he said. "Pierre is the best I've ever worked with, so I feel confident on that side of it that I'll be fine."
