New York Red Bulls midfielder Peter Stroud is '100%' healthy after a severe ankle injury suffered in April that required surgery and is ready to break back
New York Red Bulls midfielder Peter Stroud is “100%” healthy after a severe ankle injury suffered in April that required surgery and is ready to break back into the lineup.
“I think that’s up to the coach. It’s his decision on how he thinks I’m training, how he thinks I’m playing,” Stroud said. “It’s my job to go out there in training and show that he can trust me to start or play me in any way. That’s what I’ve been focusing on the past couple weeks and I feel like I can contribute in any way possible now.”
“I felt like I was getting better and better every single game,” Stroud said. “Thinking back to it just because as an athlete, it’s weird to see your leg kind of in that way. I never watched it back and I don’t plan on ever watching it back. I know what I saw and I don’t really need to see it again. It was a tough moment. I get pretty upset just thinking about it but that type of stuff happens in sports. It was a freak accident.
“I’m just grateful to be back and be 100%, feeling how I felt before I got injured. It was a tough couple weeks, couple months, but I’m super grateful.” “The competition is always good,” Stroud said. “I think since I signed here, I think we’ve always been solid in that position. I feel like we’ve always had deep holding midfielders and that competition only helps a player, especially as a young player. You need to be fully focused, fully locked in. There’s always someone ready to take your spot and I think that’s a good thing.
