New York Red Bull head coach Hans Backe has backed up his comments in Offside magazine that the club will win the MLS Cup next year.
The Swede said quite positively that the Red Bulls will be good enough to take out the title in 2011 and didn't back away from that statement yesterday.
"Yeah, definitely,'' Backe said. "I can't see any teams being that much better than us; we just have to be consistent. And when we get some quality players in, that's definitely my target to win the cup next year. And I think it's absolutely possible. From what I've seen from the teams we've played, I don't see why we couldn't win that.''
