Impact coach Schallibaum: “Season as a whole was a good one” 7 Nov 2013 "You have to say that the season as a whole was a good one. We may not have achieved everything we wanted but it's normal. We're going to have some serious discussions. It's important for the future that the club move forward and that everyone is going in the same direction.”

Impact loses control of playoff fate after season-ending loss in Toronto 27 Oct 2013 "In the first half it wasn't very good.

Ouimette’s late winner gives Impact a vital three points 19 Oct 2013 “I told them I felt that they wanted to win but that I didn't think wanting was enough. I also said that I felt we could turn the game around,” said Schallibaum when asked what message he addressed to his troops. “We did and I'm very proud of everyone on the team. We have had some difficult weeks and this is a kind of liberation. I'm happy for everyone because we deserved this win, it's a good moment for us.”
Impact’s loss to New England puts playoff hopes in peril 12 Oct 2013 “It's always difficult to explain after a game like this one,” declared head coach Marco Schallibaum in his post-game comments. “In short we were not strong enough.

We were not strong in the last 20 metres. We were just not good today,” he concluded.

Whitecaps 3, Impact 0: Schallibaum erupts over game-changing decision 21 Sep 2013 “He whistled for a penalty and then he was influenced by the fourth official who said he didn't think it was,” Schallibaum said following the game. “For me it's a scandal because a decision was made and then all of a sudden it's not a penalty. It was something that changed the game even though we did not play a strong first half and we were unlucky on the penalty to Hassoun.”
Schallibaum: Crew continues to be the Impact’s “bête noire” 14 Sep 2013 “There wasn’t a lot missing today,” he continued. “A centimetre’s difference here or there and things might have been different but the game's like that. Even though we came away empty-handed today we are still on track to achieve the objectives we set at the beginning of the season.”
