Head Coach Jesse Marsch said this is the deepest New York Red Bulls team he’s seen.
Marsch said that depth lies with the youth of the team.
“The young guys are starting to show they understand what it takes,” Marsch said after training on Thursday. “They don’t need as much time with the USL team. They’re now ready for challenges here with the MLS team. That’s an exciting proposition for us.”
The average age of the Red Bulls is 25.5 years old.
“The more we develop young players and they show they’re ready for bigger challenges, the more that everything we do here is becoming more effective,” Marsch said.
