Chivas USA players have stated that they are happy with the choice of Martin Vasquez as head coach.

The Mexican-born American recently took the vacant role at the Los Angeles-based club which was last filled by Preki Radosavljevi? and the appointment has been well-received by some of the players.

"He's a great choice for us," said defender Mariano Trujillo. "He has all the tools that you need to coach Chivas USA. I know him pretty well and I'm really excited that he has come here."

"He understands both the culture of Mexico and the culture of the United States," said Claudio Suarez. "That's really important for a team with roots in both places."

"It's really impressive that he worked with Bayern Munich," said Chivas USA midfielder Jorge Flores. "He had a chance to work with players who are truly world class and that experience will help him here. I think it will be an easy transition for the team and we're all excited to start working with him."
