Canada V USA friendly
Ah watching this game now......neither of these teams look invincible or world class. For one Canada has a lot of younger players; one in particular just got drafted from college never having played in a pro league.
USA has 17 out of 22 from the MLS. Judging from the make up, I would say that both teams are providing opportunities for their younger players and are on a rebuild!!!
If we had our act together, I think both these teams are ripe for the pickings. TTFF look and learn ; yuh think we could get our house in order. Look at te list of players we have playing abroad. Come nah bring out 22 like the USA and start building for 2018
-
As far as de US goes, only ah little more than a handful of last night's team making de actual team for the Hex.
I wouldn't comment on what we should be doing, we does always be talking bout dat.
Watching Denmark and Mexico now, my goodness, like night and day compared to dat US Canada game.

Where is our 19 year old Cornelius and 18 year old Paulsen?

Well
Barca ah mean Spain deal with Uruguay rather comfortable, though the game had some very physical moments. Fabragas & Pedro doing the damage. Iniesta doing he ting as usual, lard he does embarass men.

Brasil just score against Englund, ah feel dey ready tuh embarrass dem second half.
Worst Brazil I have ever seen. Talk about being out played the score flatter Brazil. Quite frankly Wilshire look better than any Brazilian midfielder on view. First half in particular Brazil were stretched all over the place, with Neymar, Ronnie and Fabiano just walking defensively. Second half was better with the subs made & Brazil pressed higher immediately resulting in a goal. However, they never looked like the Brazil I love so much.

england win 2-1. they eh look bad atall...as for brazil...need work.

Scolari needs tuh leave the past alone and go with the youthful energy of Brasil.

I hope so we. What worrying me is Neyma looks more about image than football (at the moment). Still young, but he will need to let his football do the talking and be the image.

Haiti leading Bolivia 1-0. RW break way on the right and hit a low hard and it hit the post and went in. Spectacular.
-

England score two boss goals... Theo take Adriano lunch time after time, after time. Joe Hart and Wilshire were excellent. Good win for England. Ronaldinho might as well be playing in a testimonial.

His first game back at the helm, I have all the confidence he will change up the team for the better, as per your suggestions. Second half they came out with more purpose and were pressing the Brits' midfield and had a good period. Walcott played well and capitalized on his strengths but he is still very predictable. To me, this game really confirmed (1)that Ronaldinho either needs to lose weight and change his whole outlook on defending or forget about ever playing for Brazil again and (2)Julio Cesar is on his way back to being in top form......Luis Fabiano need to shape up or ship out quickly as well and Oscar had a disappointing game. I eh worried 'bout Neymar, he showed in the Olympics what he can do
-
Watched Argentina and they toyed with Sweden. That being said Messi does have to play further up the pitch. he is picking balls in his own half and that will not scare opponents. However, even with that Aguero, Higuain, Di Maria, & Messi is tears. Argentina needs to solve its goalkeeping & backline because every ball coming into the box looks like a goal waiting to happen>

Meh bredren call meh after de Brazil game and ranting bout not buying no ticket for WC next year.
Had to tell him calm down, also went on ah rant bout Neymar needs to go Europe to 'toughen up', again had to calm him down and say Neymar go be alright.
I fell we have seen the last of Ronaldhino though, Scolari give him he lil chance and we can see that he eh ready (anymore.)
-
Why does Neymar have to go to Europe to toughen up? Them Euros think it easy playing in SA. The Brazilian league eh no walk in the park as some people may want to think.
-
Italy is showing some stuff, but Brazil just stuffed them again 2-0 now
-
Why does Neymar have to go to Europe to toughen up? Them Euros think it easy playing in SA. The Brazilian league eh no walk in the park as some people may want to think.
Deeks ah bredren ah mine have so many points to support that he should go Europe, all kinda thing bout defenders in de Braziiian league not as good, or that they does go easy on star players (???). I does only tell him, nah Neymar go be allright man.
Anyway try telling dem Italian who he just slice open that he needs to come Europe nah :)

Super Mario Golazo!!!

Barzil vs Italy
Ah man say Brazil defense could do a good 10 days, lots of man standing around ;D
David Luis have to among the worst CB's in International football, the man worst than Bramble.
Oscar movement was excellent & I am nobody to question Scholari, but "What do these guys see in Bulk"
should have been the first sub at the National Anthem.
My wife was dusting during the game, bounce the TV and Neymar fall over. Dat youth weak! ;D
-
Just taking in the Brasil vs Italy. Sweet football-not an a fan of Italy but I respect their consistency as a footballing nation during tournaments. They looking rell good. appear to be building a nice side with youth and experience and Balo adds that extra quality to this side. I love watching Balo when he jus playing football.
Brasil picks the right side and they can win it in Brasil. I will be there to take it in. I would start Diego Costa over Hulk and or pick him for the side over Hulk-who does fall down to much and to clumsy. Neymar could play on my side any day. it will be interesting tuh see if Luis will make the side even though he is captain right now.

Klinsman said he wanted to create an attacking revolution with the USA. His first 3 games he was all out attack.
Then the losses came and all of a sudden they more defensive than under Bradley & is only counter attack football.

USA always seems to get favorable refereeing at home. Dam! How was that a penalty & then Benteke gets taken down from behind, no call.

Not only that... Beasley had a clear penalty when he handled in the box in the first half. Even Darke and Twellman had to grudgingly concede that is should have been given... except it wasn't. CONCACAF officials are a joke... no different from the teams, actually.

Given the way he left the job... and rumors of ill-feelings among the players, I think it's the other way around.

Looking at the game last night the US team seemed to be heading down that same path....after the first goal scored players were bitching at each other for some time...they had a huge problem picking up that 3rd man running from deep in the midfield...
the goal they scored off the corner was a product of Bob Bradley. JK has not brought anything new to the team

Brasil not scaring anyone with that team. Defense was poor, Midfield defending nada & no striker that can make things happen.
Germany had over 50% of the team missing & looked it. So much for all the talk about depth in Germany.

Spain fielded a good team; nice to see the respect for the fans and the occasion.

Final: Spain 2 - 1 Haiti

How many times we have to say, it's a two-way street... those other countries have to be interested in playing TnT as well. Haiti is not only a more formidable opponent, but also a more sympathetic one as well. Remember the hit that the Haitian FA took during the earthquake. I have no doubt that some of these European countries are doing this in part out of goodwill. But to your points, we at least need to be in position to approach them in some meaningful kind of way and have that discussion. With all due respect to Tim Kee, Sheldon Phillips and the people currently involved in moving the TTFF forward, I'm not sure that we're on that level yet.

yeah i was thinking that part of the reason spain played them had to have been due to the earthquake (which it is not completely recovered from btw)

Brasil v France playing on Bein. I find it hard tuh believe all the talent Brasil has and we still cah get decent midfield play. Ah tired of seeing dem depend on Neymar, and Hulk, tuh create fuh the side. I I grew up with Socrates, Falcao, Zico, Junior. This is a damn disgrace we lacking a midfield general who pullin strings on a regular.

brazil producing defenders, keepers, wingers, holding midfielders but no playmakers.
i cant think of any since kaka and dinho. ganso looking like another bust (just like Rai). hernanes is the closest thing to a playmaker but he does not play much for brazil.
so we have to play to our strengths and use wingers.
-
Just finally saw the Brazil v France game, just two things...so much for TnT boasting as a team too have TWO ICONIC coaches at the helm.
Two, apart from all the turning and twisting and great runs, and unbelievable skill on display...MY (!!!) play of de game was the touch by NEYMAR for the Hernanes goal!!
Dare I say, it was somewhat Barcelonaesque.

O Seleção is an institution for them. The coaches talk to each other often its a respect shared by the players as well. I remember a video of Cafu praying for the ailing former coach Mario Zagallo before a game against Argentina.

Haiti down 2-0 but playing well...
-
Haiti 2 Italy 2.
This Haiti B team could have easily beat a full Italian team
This was a full Italian team with Baloteli, Daniele De Rossi, Riccardo Montolivo, Stephan El Shaarawy and Marchisio ..leading the charge against this Haiti B side
-
Italy under 21 B team will give us 5. lol
Very impressed with Haiti
-
Well, Truehaitian to tell the truth, that is not a Haitian B-team even though many players are locals. There are many foreign players who have not been called for this game, but the team that played Italy is basically the one that will represent us at the gold cup.
Congrats to Haiti.

What happened to your captain, the GK from france is he injured or just omitted. He has been one of your better players.

Placide couldn't join the team because of some personal issues. He is not injured. He will likely replace Montrevil at the GC. He is a very good kid.

Thats good to hear, too bad Haiti didnt make the hex they would have put up a much better fight than Jamaica. I actually have Haiti winning our group at the Gold Cup, hopefully we can take third.

And h man was saying we get the easiest group. ::)
a 2-2 draw with italy and a 2-1 loss to spain are excellent results, and with an all out local side, even more impressive. these fellas look like they finding their legs, and just imagine T&T played 6 friendly matches and only played with our best 11 once. waste of practice matches if you ask me.

I never understood why people were saying our group was so easy, we are probably the worst team in the tournament so we are in no position to call anything easy. However I would say that we are in the most balanced group.
-
The results by Haiti is very impressive on so many levels. The most obvious in my opinion is the economics of their country and its ability to support and garner the level of top flight opposition. Secondly consider the football infrastructure of Haiti compared to what we have.
So with all our wealth and pro league why is it that our development or progress has not yield the results we are seeing from a Haitian side?
-
I believe this game ended in a 1-1 draw. ;D
