Seattle Sounders' Burch has something to prove against DC United

Marc Burch admits he has something to prove when his new club Seattle Sounders takes on DC United this weekend.

The 27-year old defender left the Washington club to pitch up at Seattle during the off-season and suggests that he is fairly keen to play well when the two clubs meet at the RFK Stadium in Week 5 of the 2012 season.

"They had the opportunity to keep me and they didn't," a stern Burch told .

"It's time to go back and prove that I don't believe that their left back is better than I am. If that's what they think, then that's what they think.

"It's time to go back there and prove that we have a much better team here. And I'm happy to be here."
