I only have know so much of the T&T national squad startin from a select few strike squade players to current so a trust yu'd put out a nicely co-prdinated team.

Anyhow after that stirring introduction I want to propose that we name for us the best all time eleven for trinidad as a farewell gift to latas as he leaves or to thumb your nose at him if you feel that he doh deserve ah place on the team. any how I would like to propose that Players be selected from only senior teams. They should have gained at least 5 caps and have played within the last 50 years.
I realise that The old stagers will plump for the legends of old and the Young fries will select the newbies but this exercise for me is fun and also information seeking about the realitive ability of players especially in defence whether it is true that the skill level has dramatically fallen or this period is an abberation.

ronnie mauge..that is the funniest thing i see in a while....this is a difficult topic because I heard a lot of great things about players like BobbY sookram, Lincoln Phillips, Jan Steadman, Leroy DeLeon, Steve David, Warren Archibald, Alvin Corneal, etc...but I have never seen them play..so me picking a best XI would be pointless...I am looking forward to posters like Coops and the other forumites who have actually seen these guys play and probably played against them....In the past 20 years, probably only Yorke and Latapy will make the best XI.This is the hardest thing to do,anybody who can come up with a best T&T X1 that will satisfy everybody i'll give them the Humming Bird medal,the reason it's so difficult for most is they came around in different times.
I know i've played and seen a lot and there were players before that i heard off but did not see,i'm not even going to attempt to name a team because it hurts to leave out such good players.
It's a good Topic though,from the teams selected you get an idea of who now start looking at Football and who watching it long time,who played the game and who did not,who like quality players and who like dandy men,who could be a good Coach and who can't.
What i'm trying to say is when people look at players they all see something different,that's the reason for all these different teams being posted here but i like that,you can see from this how difficult a Coach's job is.

Anybody who see Eve in his younger days would understand why he dey. Back in the 2001 qualifiers...he had Mex looking sorf as hell, as he constantly just ghosted past them.
The problem with the wingers is that they were poor crossers, this is why I started with Eve ahead of Marcelle. I was tempted to put Yorke as left winger, but how can you ignore what he did with MU as a striker.
Truth is if I had this team I could mix and match...but this is just fantasy anyway.

Man talking about Tiger Phillips a man who was good yes but gave up some 12 goals in 6 games for T&T in Qualification?????. What about Shaka Hislop, Kelvin Barclay. Nakid before, Aleong, Leon Carpett or Tony Douglas, Wendell Moore was a better player than Nakid. No mention of Bert Neptune. I could go on but once I see names like Clauzel I have to bow out.

Nice topic ,this is a subject to last for decades... i have to admit too many excellent players i've seen wear the red, white and black to name a best T&T XI . ah mean really good players .... Trinidad and Tobago is blessed with real home grown talent no doubt about that.....
It is difficult to pick a best XI, because of so many talented players that came thru.
XI vs Argentina in PanAm games 67.
XI vs Mexico in Haiti 73 for 74 WC
XI vs USA in Torrance for Italy WC
XI vs Bahrain in Bahrain
XI vs Sweden in Germany
XI vs England in Gemany

Well you could start with what XI you think was the best out of that lot, then look at the team and decide who you could substitute. For England, I actually think our WC winning team had some considerable weaknesses ('Wingless wonders' after all), so I'm happy to sub in greats like Sir Tommy Finny (RIP, "Tom Finney should claim income tax relief ... for his 10 dependents.") and Sir Stanley Matthews (these two were probably the best footballers ever to play, because off the pitch these guys were perfect gentlemen and total professionals).

Forwards:
Warren Archibald, Dwight Yorke, Steve David
Lincoln Phillips, I never see him play, so its hard to say how good he was, but I will go with de majority.
Marvin Faustin, yes, left back, maybe Richard Theodore too.
Selwyn Murren, I never see him play, so its hard to say how good he was, but I will go with de majority.
Clayton Morris, yes
Brian Williams, yes.
Russell Latapy, yes.
Everald Cummings, I never see him play, so its hard to say how good he was, but I will go with de majority.
Leroy De Leon, I never see him play, so its hard to say how good he was, but I will go with de majority.
Warren Archibald, I never see him play, so its hard to say how good he was, but I will go with de majority.
Dwight Yorke, Yes for Man Utd. I prefer Stern John.
Steve David, I never see him play, so its hard to say how good he was, but I will go with de majority. Ah feel Arnold Dwarika could be a good back up or even better he he days, he is only we top 3 goalscorers of all times for T&T even though he was a midfielder.
David Nakhid need ah mention, we best defensive midfielder ever.
And I feel Carlos Edwards could give De Leon, a run for he spot.

Marvin or Clayton.
But ent Grell was ah midfielder?
Bert was a utility player. Could play anywhere in the back line and played a defensive midfield. Probably that maybe a problem trying to select him for a specific position. Then after the concacaf tournament fiasco in 69, Bert never played for TT again. If allyuh selecting Archie and Dilly(two of my favorites) from that era, then Bert should be there.

Sam says that Nakhid was the best defensive mid-field player TT had. I beg to differ. Maybe against Caribbean teams. Not against the concacaf teams. I think he was one of the best distributors of the ball. If Nakhid and Latas playing in the middle, I would prefer a defensive midfielder to be present because them two eh putting in hard tackles to win ball. I have seen Dwight, Latas, David play in WC in Virginia, and the US neutralized our middle and won 2-0.

It is very difficult to pick the best players ever. The circumstances at the time are different. Guys in the the 60s never get to play national like England, Brazil, etc. The played plenty club team who came on tour. TT did play Arg. in two PanAm games in the 60s and 70s. I don't know how you qualify that. Each best XI should be selected by the decade. Then there are players who straddle two different decades.
