You want to talk about Union coach, Oreland native Jim Curtin, as a soccer guy and a Philly guy, you call Philadelphia-born Chris Albright, who knows soccer and Philly, and counts Jim Curtin as one of his closest friends.

“We probably played against each other before we joined forces at Council Rock Dynamo when we were 15 or 16,” Albright said. “A lot of us on that team, in Philly fashion, didn’t want to go play for Delco.”

“He was such a good athlete for his size,” Albright said. “He was a great hooper. He was a great baseball player. He was just so athletic. And if I say kind of graceful, he’ll laugh at me. But sort of graceful for 6-4, 6-5.” Their next encounters were as opponents in MLS, where Curtin eventually made an all-star team in 2004 as a Chicago Fire defender.

Not just on tactics — “like all of us, he’s just really grown,” Albright said of that, but he’s able to navigate through all sorts of complex issues, not the least of which is bringing in an assortment of international personalities, arriving from disparate soccer systems all over the globe.
