When speaking about the character of his teammate, Corey Ashe, Houston Dynamo forward Giles Barnes had this to offer ahead of today's league encounter (via the club's official website): "I don't think there's anything anyone could question Corey about. Ever since the day he knew he might not be starting he's been out here working and doing his thing and that's Corey all over."

"I can't praise Corey enough," he added. "He's a good player as well. He's accepted what's happened, [losing his job to DaMarcus Beasley], and he's working hard day-in-and-day-out."
