I predict.....Jerrel Britto the next top TnT striker....
15 yrs old..QRC and jabloteh.....sorry but dont mean to question Antons selection....but this Kid should be in Korea...born to score goals...thats different to a striker or forward or whatever you call them...this is a goalscorer....like Stern nah
-

-
personal friend..played with jerrel for 3 yrs..traveled to Grenada n also st vincent under 12 and under 15 with family soccer coaching academy...promising talent...still a green fruit doh withing 2 ripe..all d best 2 him
-
this is a goalscorer....like Stern nah
He's that lazy of a player at such a young age?
-
If is ah Brito from San Juan, then I might know his big sis. Or could be his cousin. Bound to be related I think.
Will give her a call and find out more bout de youth. Cause she is ah big football fan (frantic Juventus fan), so will be able to say whether he really have it or not.
-
wel arrow...than god stern lazy.....or else you would be on crotia's forum
-
If we were all as lazy as Stern and accomplish so much TNt would be a better place.

Fellas I caught a glimpse of a story on news last night about a youthman from Trinidad on trial at Pompey,seemed a young fella,they said he is due to go back next month.Anybody could shed some light on this?
-
I heard an interview with his mom on radio yesterday.
Basically, he went for a trial at portsmouth accompanied with his mother, got to train alongside the first team on one occasion, the coach said that he is four years advanced for his age and they are very excited about him. Now they want him to come back for a trial without his parents to see how he would cope.
BTW... he is 15yrs and attends QRC
-

You fuh real asking that question. He going and play Reserve and academy ball for a bit. He not getting a work permit, and will go to England on a student visa or something like that. No way he cracking into that Pompey team right away. He has good skill, but that doesn't mean that he has the right mental approach yet needed to succeed abroad. I not trying to put mouth on de youth, but we need to not get too ahead of ourselves here. Our players often lack the mental fortitude to stick it out when they go abroad, much less for our youths.

he starting saturday in place of Benjani

i was just speculating, as u can see, i was asking a question, i never said the youth ready, the way man talkin is like he ready to play sr ball and play reserves right away... 4 years ahead of his time puts him at 19, which is the right age for 1st team ball, dependent on the player..

His parents read this message board, so I am sure we will be given an update to the situation at some time in the future.
The younger they get the exposure the more prepared they will be to face what is on the outside, as long as they have good parental and administrative support

If its Britto this is a shocking coincidence..
Last night on Gayelle there was about a 15 min feature on Jerrel Britto, and lemme tell yuh.. This youth is we future...
For a 15 year old, if you see touches, acceleration, finishing, turn of pace.. Most importantly he have de look of an established baller.. I know he's not an unknown because there was some uproar over him not being selected for the U17 world cup.. but allyuh need to see the clips of him.
And i was coming to post something about him last night and forget.
but like i said, if it is him was on trial would be a real coincidence..

My question is, how did Portsmouth even hear about a 15 yr old in TT, who wasn't selected for the U-17 team?
Does anybody know?

Hope he fares better than the last 3 Trinis we had on trial with Portsmouth
Good luck to the youth

McComie had nothing to do with the U-17 that was Anton Corneal call. To make that team Britto had to take Stephen Knox and Daniel Joseph spot. Knox was considered one of the top Caribbean players in that position.
Britto played for Jabloteh youths last season so McComie did not have say in his club play either. A next young fella to look out for is Shaddon Winchester. Early days yet but as long as he have the right guidance he will be tears.

Going back to the Peltier and Hyland incident....Portsmouth, and Redknapp himself apparently has an eye on TnT when it comes to youth players. Fenwick engineered those trials, not sure who was behind this one but interesting to note (as Zandolie states) that Britto is a former Jabloteh youth player.

The U-17 was actually one of the better set of defenders we have had. They were very stingy....until the world cup. They have had their baptism of fire. Precisely why a national sport priority should be training our new U-17 team. Starting right after Xmas. Or Mr. Carrington will be plagarizing Mr. Corneal's excuse-handbook.
But if history is a guide TTFF are on course to fail our youth yet again.

well he was training with the under 17 but did not make the cut

I heard talk of a couple of promising midfielders, Mark Tanner age around 16 and Martin Wilmott age around 14. Anyone seen these guys play? I think Wilmott comes from Morvant.
The current craze with scouting non EU youngsters is to follow the Arsenal pattern. Find them, look at them in training, and if they show promise, buy them for your European feeder club. By the time the boy becomes a man, he's eligible for UK work permit.
This works with African players as most countries have European colonial links, so qualify for a visa. Now there seems to be a way in for Caribbean players via Spain, I expect to see many more youngsters picked up by European clubs.
FPATT are in negotiaton with an academy looking to recruit 15-17 year olds. Although the project was originally for African youths, we are negotiating to obtain places for Trinis.
I will tell you more when we have news.

I not tryin to take nobody joy nutting.
I simply askin if anybody know of any young defenders who have REAL potential?
We hear about players like Britto & Peltier & Hyland etc...all offensive players. Yes ah know de tendency is to talk about attacking players only.
However, I thinkin bout we National team now and in years to come. Where are the international class defenders going to come from?
We could line up wit Kenwyne Jones & Edwards and Stern John all we want, but if we eh have competent international defenders and midfielders, we eh goin no way.
But because I ask dese questions, ah guess I hatin.

You well know with our "flambouyant" culture we don't generally value the kind of plain, unglamourous, workmanlike grit we need in good defenders, let alone stamina. The closest thing we have to that in the near future is the U-17 world cup team. They ent international class YET. But they have more international experience and better results than any set of youths in my recent memory, including the U-17 team from WC held in T&T.
That is why I really not studying 2010. Training that U-16 for 2009 including developing defensive players is the best way to secure success in the near to long term.

It's the same thing i said on the daryl roberts thread. local coaches are all out for lunch, they always ignore and passover the true genuine talented youths for crappy players, that's why we never reached a WC before,to much games and favoritism when it come's to anything local. i went to school with marlon morris who played for the strike squad, and there were players far more excellent than him that never even got a call for the national team tryouts. after my time there was a kid by the name of darrall edwards who was pure poison, he played well in any position, but never even got a sniff from the national selectors, instead they picked paul rudder who was good no doubt, but no where close to darrell edwards ability, who was the best player i've ever seen in T&T. paul rudder had an older brother who went by the name sabba, that was an excellent player who just went to waste BC no one took the time not even to gave this brother a trial, alvin corneil, rolf bartollo, nobody ! while tod willis got an opportunity, his neighbor, and though todd was an excellent defender, sabba was far more deserving of an opportunity than anyone else i know, even todd. i guess that's our loss T&T.

Omar, paul rudder was a brown skin sleepy eyed stocky and short youth, very quiet and mellow, originally from nelson street plannings, he played for the national youth team in 1984 and beyond, very quick on his feet good goal scorer. i don't know what became of him since i left trini.

Anytime now or when he returns from SSFL All Star fixtures may believe that Shandhon Winchester the Under 15 vice/co-captain would be called on Trails also , he is said to be tactically smarter and way more skillful than Britto.

No work permit issue he goin in d academy so a student visa will surffice

Pompey trial T&T starlet
Youngster tries his luck on South Coast
Trinidad & Tobago starlet Jerrel Britto has spent the last two-weeks on trial at Premier League Portsmouth.
The 15-year-old was spotted by Pompey scouts during the Caribbean Youth Cup and was invited to England to try his luck.
The San Juan Jabloteh striker was pleased with how things went during his time on the South Coast.
Experience
"It was an amazing experience for me as a 15-year old getting that opportunity to train with a club like Portsmouth," Britto told TTFF Media.
"Amazing is the best word I can think of because it was the first time I attended a professional club like that and at first I trained with the Under 16s but then the coaches decided to put me with the Under 18s.
"At the moment their U18s are described as the best passing team in the youth league in England so it suited my game well.
"I had the chance to gain the knowledge as well as interact with the other players there.
"Of course they asked a lot about the football in Trinidad because of us playing in the World Cup last year and they also knew about the Under 17s going to Korea."
Transfer
Britto revealed that Pompey could offer him a permanent deal in January when he returns for a second stint.
"Overall I had to be patient and do my best. They have asked me to come back for another trial in January, this time without my parents, and if things go well they could keep me with one of their youth teams," he said.

Yeah it kinda indicative of our culture when two ppl we consider to be defenders (Kenwyne and Rougier) go to the UK and come back as forwards.

Everybody want to b a star boi so nobody eh want to Defend but is a defender who make sure we reach d big dance

And would it be a good move for him if he moves to pompey? (as that what skysports.com are quoting)
and tell me abit about him?
Cheers
-
D yute was spotted in d Under 15 championship and was taken to England and from all reports it went well. It will b a Win Win for him and d club he can only benefit and I sure portsmouth will get d return on their investment.
He from a good family background and once he remember what they taught him no disciplinary problems will b experienced.

Palos BM find a defender 4 yuh ok 4 us. Since he was spot on wit Britto let we look out 4 d Murray guy

-
Doh ruff up d Moderator sooooooooooo
-
ok as a qrc fan this is what i have noticed about him...pacy..good close control..deceptive turn of speed and sharp dribbling...loves to take low powerful shots... not a bad passer altho he can overdo the fancy flick-ons
my only real grouse with him is that he aims at the keeper 90% of the time..something he gets away with in his age group due to his power..keepers can't really handle that..but if he works on his placement he will be a good future striker..

Hey pompey researcher,it look's like your team is doing quite well this season, europe is within your grasp, as in champions league. i hope benjani and muntari keep tallying the goals, too bad peltier and hyland couldn't get a taste, maybe next year. positive.
-
Hi, yea we are doing quite well at the moment. Our academy team is matching our first team as well so if someone is given the chance to join they will be given everychance through academy under Paul Hart.

First of all I must say how proud we are of our son and how we commend him for the humility he has maintained throughout. At the age of 9 years old Jerrel began attending the Family Soccer coaching Academy managed by Vaughn "Bella" Alexander. It is at that academy that the ability we had recognized in Jerrel at a younger age was developed and I want to publicly say thanks to Vaughn Alexander. One Saturday morning not having enough funds to send Jerrel to the academy which was based at Presentation College, Chaguanas, I was busy looking in the house for all the quarters I could gather to send Jerrel off and he touched me on my back and told me that one day he would send me English, as at that time he did not know that the UK currecy was called Pounds. I became very teary at that point. I shared this first because i wanted to shed some light on the fact that from a very young age Jerrel had a dream.
Rgarding his trial at Portsmouth-As the article written states, Jerrel was seen by an agent during the recently concluded CFU tournament. We were invited to England by the club, where in the first week we were exposed to the living arrangements that the club has for foreign players which are at their academy. We stayed with houseparents. Jerrel began training the very next day after we arrived. I was very concerned about how he would cope with the weather but after speaking to him on the first day, he expressed that he was very confortable as he was given appropriate clothing to wear during the session. He continued to train with the under 18 team and was given one try with the under 16's. I attended two of his training sessions where I saw a child that had adjusted really well, meshed with some of the players and able to play his game without any intimidation.He showed alot of concentartion during the drills and was just himself during the practice matches.
After his final training session, I was informed that he would be required to return without parents in January and upon speaking to the U18 coach, he informed me that he was very pleased and that he is four years advance.He said that in the first week they recognized some shyness and fright but in the second week, they saw wahat he got.I took time to ask about what the club had in place where a players' education is concerned and he explained to me that it was top priority.
As parents we want to make sure that every area of our son's life is covered if and when we decide, should he be successful at his next trial. At the end of the day it is not all about money but it is vey important that Jerrel Britto be a holistic individual and a positive statistic to society. We have been instructed by the Lord to train him up in the way he should go, we have tried to that to the best of our ability to do just as we have been instructed. God has the final say in our lives. We are grateful for all the doors that has and will open to Jerrel. We know that he is destined for greatness and once he acknowledges the Lord, stays humble and keeps focus, his dreams will come to pass. As a family we are committed to supporting this young man, we are closely knitted together and him being in another country will not change that. We thank Trinidad and Tobago and all who has wished him good success. I take this time to encourage parents to stand with their chilldren. It does not take a big bank account or living in a mansion for a child to realize his or her dreams. As a family we have had tough,tough times but our faith in the Lord and our love as family and support for each other has kept us together.Blessings to all and have a BLESSED HOLIDAY!

Great stuff.
I know there was some interest in him recently from Pompey et al.,
But was he looked at before the caribbean yutes went to Sund ?
-
Dont forget Whinchester, very close to Britto , probably doesnt get as much oppurtunites to score as britoo is the main striker and whinchester in playing an Attacking Midfeilder
-
who is britto strike partner
-
Might b able 2 answer after I go game tmorrow
-
well seen him play,
No messi or anything great but has some potential, its just that as these kids mature they seem to lose something, if he is currently at his prime well there is no way he his the next shining star, if he is now getting his feet wet well he will go somewhere cause he has some talent. Again compare him to real stars at his age Robinho, messi you just knew it was a matter of time before they blew up
we will just have to sit back and see how hungry he is to make it happen and not be side tracked by liming / girls etc lol
-
correct...winchester is also a fine young talent...seems to e working on half throttle... and britto strike partner is Cordell Cato...

you are trying to compare a youth in Trinidad at jabloteh to messi at Barcelona who eat drink and sleep football in their "world class" youth academy since 13 ......

when i think of it now we really blessed to have yorke and latas

Jerrel Britto urges: “Just Follow Your Dream”
By Stephanie Seenath (T&T Guardian)
“Just follow your dream and you will be successful in whatever you desire to do.” This was the advice that came from National Under-23 footballer, Jerrel Britto, in an exclusive interview with gieMAGAZINE.
Britto disclosed, “When I was nine I told my mother I would like to play international football and I worked towards that (and I continue to work).
Never stop believing in your dream and though you may meet challenges along the way, it’s just a stepping stone to getting to your dream and getting you stronger!” Britto, an example of a true sportsman, embodies all those values and characteristics that make him strong, competitive and admirable.
His diligent, committed and determined nature, coupled with his humble and modest attitude ensures his present and continued success.
The national striker started playing the beautiful game from the tender age of nine at a coaching school by the name of Family Soccer Coaching Academy. He then moved to San Juan Jabloteh where he played in the North Zone League.
After some time, he played for the senior team of that club which allowed him to show off his skill and talent in the Pro League and the CONCACAF Champions League. With regard to the National team, he has played for Under-15s right up to the Olympic team. Presently, he is with W Connection and the Under-23s.
Britto disclosed to gieMAGAZINE that he possesses ultimate respect and admiration for his mother who pushed him since he started in the sport.
He affirmed, “Honestly, without my mother I would not be where I am today. She pushes me and shows her support in every way possible. Snow, rain, sun, hail, she would be there for me. She is my number one fan!”
The striker then acknowledged how tough it can be for young athletes who train consistently and also attend school. “I remember my days at Queen’s Royal College (QRC) playing in the Secondary Schools’ Football League and also representing Trinidad and Tobago,” he smiled.
However, Britto insisted that one must keep focus on the job at hand and the goals that one wants to achieve. He praised the Secondary Schools’ Football League as the league launched his football career.
Britto was spotted playing for QRC and that led to him playing with the National Under-17 team which went to the World Cup.
It’s a league where a young player can be drafted anywhere. There are clubs offering scholarships and there are a lot of players who have moved onto colleges outside of Trinidad and Tobago just from playing in the school league.
One of the greatest challenges Britto has faced so far is dealing with the critics. He related that people can make you and break you, but he disclosed that he has decided to use those critics as inspiration and encouragement to work harder.
He stated, “Once I keep my head on and focus on what I want to achieve in this life, I could see myself in countries I’ve never expected.”
The best of luck to Jerrel Britto. Make us proud!

It could be a combination of factors which led to his decision, but I would welcome this move because it will get him out of the comfort zone of playing at home.
Playing in a foreign country with no notoriety, overcoming the language barrier and customs builds character.

-
Yes, the Guatemala league is considered higher than TT Pro league. Are there teams paying USD$8,000-$10,000/month in Trinidad? That's what Communicaciones and Municipal pay some of their players. There are a number of Panama national team players playing in Guatemala and that kind of money is attracting even Costa Rican players from Saprissa and decent South American players from Argentina, Uruguay and Colombia.

Good! Thanks

Congratulations to the player. Nonetheless, just so everyone is clear: this is third tier or "third division" ball.
If he performs weel there is the possibility of him moving up to join Yohance's team in the Ascenso MX.

Nice. Dey want more Trinis.
Mas trinitarios!!!!
Well done Britto. You're getting there gradually and Yohance dey to mentor you.

Just to be clear, the Segunda Division - Liga Premier is indeed the third division of Mexican football, while the fourth division is the Segunda Division - Liga de Nuevos Talentos. There is also a division below that Tercera Division.
Mexico is a real football country and Liga MX has higher salaries on average than Ligue 1 (PSG aside). It is in the top 10 or maybe 8 worldwide nowdays.
The Liga Premier is very much structured like the USL with all the 18 reserve teams of the Liga MX clubs, a few Ascenso reserve teams and a few independents. Murcielagos 2 group includes the reserves of Tigres, Monterrey, Santos, and Tijuana among others. Many teams in Liga MX source their youngsters directly from this league nowdays.
Jerrel Britto will play along side Devaughn Elliott (ex W Connection) who is coming off of a great season in El Salvador with Pasaquina and who has a guaranteed 2 year contract to be part of the Ascenso team starting in June (he has to wait until then due to all foreign spots being taken until then, otherwise Jomal Williams was already in negotiation to take the spot on Murcielagos 2 with Britto. Only two foreigners allowed on that team). The Ascenso team will let go two of their foreigners in June leaving an open spot for Britto if he proves himself but he could also impress the likes of Tigres, Monterrey, etc...
In the case of Murcielagos 2, they are actually the original Murcielagos team and play in a different city (Guamuchil) compared to the Ascenso team playing in Los Mochis, a franchise that was acquired by the same ownership only last summer from Irapuato. That means Murcielagos 2 could actually achieve promotion to Ascenso MX and would then operate under a different name.
Now let's make it clear that Ascenso MX is a lot better than the NASL and it would be safe to assume the Segunda Division - Liga Premier is probably better than USL. Britto will play with two former Mexico U17 World Cup champs who are now about his age.
Salaries in Ascenso can average $10,000/month with top players making $20,000/month or more. Many decent players in Ascenso MX could easily play in MLS and make a difference. You could look up Yohance's teammate Rodrigo Pastorini track record in Uruguay first division and Romania. Or Nicolas Vigneri, 15 caps with Uruguay. Those type of players do not play in NASL.
In Ascenso MX the level is good. A top Ascenso team in MX would probably make the playoffs in MLS. That's why players like Quintero of Panama play in Ascenso. Kudos to Yohance for establishing himself there.

There are specific formulae for calculating the indemnification. I haven't done the arithmetic in this case, but the figure (merely on casual observation) will easily by-pass 12,000 USD.

Britto scores after medical scare.
By Shaun Fuentes (Guardian).
T&T’s forward Jerrel Britto suffered a medical scare last week while in training with his Honduran club Honduras Progreso after experiencing chest pains and dizzy spells. Fortunately for the former national under-15 captain, after being taken to hospital by club officials, an echo-cardiogram and further medical tests revealed no heart complications. He was later cleared by doctors to resume playing.
“I was getting a sharp pain in my chest during training but I didn’t pay it any attention until later in the training I started feeling light headed,” Britto explained. “When I sat down it got worse and I encountered breathing problems before the coaches and some players came to my aid and then I was taken to hospital.”
The conditions in Honduras recently may have played a part in Britto’s physical condition.
“The doctor said that my physical state was good following the tests and that maybe what took place was due to dehydration because the sun has been very hot lately,” he said.
Britto went on to play two successive matches since, scoring in the 59th minute of his team’s 4-1 win over Platense on Wednesday.
“Thankfully all is well now for me. I’ve played two full games and scored once but it just goes to show how you cannot take anything for granted. I am grateful to God for everything that he has guided me through and I will continue to strive and give praises,” Britto said. Britto was called up to the Senior Men’s Team earlier this year.

Since Hart got sacked, these are the players who have scored:
Forwards (10):
Shahdon Winchester (5). Includes a hat-trick against Haiti in the Caribbean Cup under Saintfiet.
Jamille Boatswain (3). Includes a brace against Barbados in Lawrence's first game in charge.
Cornell Glen (1)
Hashim Arcia (1)
Midfielders (10):
Kevin Molino (3)
Joevin Jones (2)
Nathan Lewis (2)
Ataulla Guerra (1)
Tyrone Charles (1)
Aikim Andrews (1)
Defenders (4):
Carlyle Mitchell (2)
Alvin Jones (1)
Kevon Villaroel (1)
If you only look at goals scored strictly during Lawrence's tenure thus far, the numbers look like:
Forwards (5):
Shahdon Winchester (2)
Jamille Boatswain (3). Includes a brace against Barbados.
Midfielders ( 8 ):
Kevin Molino (3)
Joevin Jones (2)
Nathan Lewis (2)
Ataulla Guerra (1)
Defenders (3):
Carlyle Mitchell (1)
Alvin Jones (1)
Kevon Villaroel (1)
So anyway you look at it, the midfield is doing the bulk of the scoring, especially under Lawrence.

Ignoring the point blank range opportunity gifted versus Progreso?
I'm not seeing anything clinical or surgical to merit that call.

It would be useful to know where the MFs are scoring from.

In comparison to the other strikers, he seems to me the only one CAPABLE of scoring. So from that point of view, you have to look at how many point blank opportunities the others even had to throw away? From a non statistical stand point, I am pretty sure the answer would be less, because they have not even been able ti find themselves in a position to throw away, far less score.
Regarding where the midfielders scoring from, all Molino and Joevin goals were pretty much created by themselves or by each other from just outside the box between the 16 to 20 yrd area

Shows that when the forwards don't score, they are also not directly involved in the goals either.

You already wasted precious time, so doh frighten to start now.
Generally, there is a high level of certainty that any forward who isn't scoring isn't being considered for selection. However, if a F is not scoring per se, then the F could merit selection because he is (1 ) bringing others onto the score sheet directly through providing service to them , (2) indirectly providing/enhancing the tactical conditions for other players to consistently buss de net or (3) the number of Fs being deployed and the relationship that can be cultivated between them (somewhat related to (1) but not necessarily so. In the history of football, although (1), (2) and (3 )have been known to happen, consideration of the intangibles that are delivered by those players who are not scoring does not ignore their history of scoring.
So that ties into questions involving the relationship between Fs and MFs and other players who incorporate into an attack (say lateral defenders) and maintain attacking options in possession.
The Gols Galore section shows who is scoring and omits who isn't scoring. Not everyone "capable" of scoring will be selected (ask Ricardo John). And clearly from the evidence in the Gols Galore section, Winchester is not the only one "capable of scoring" in the current era. Further, it's not like Tallman is being overworked with goal production at club level, so we have more penetrating issues than a F taking up opportunistic positioning on potential goal-scoring chances created by others and then squandering his chances (Britto). I'm happy that Britto can be paid to play football for a living. However, I've not seen enough from him that rises to the level of NT selection, even coming off de bench. And I'm not depending on highlights to form this opinion.
-
Right...so going back to the point of the thread. I claim that I find none of our strikers look like they capable of scoring so Britto at 26 probably should be in the mix cause nobody, since even during Stephen Hart tenure, has done anything. With Winchester, to me, being the only one who has been tried who even look like he capable of finding the net.
One would expect a reasonable disagreement to that opinion should be: A) I find that nobody, including Winchester, capable or B) I believe that "X Player "is capable.
But... after asking for Tallman to research stats, viewing Goals Galore, trying to talk tactics...you just wanted to say that Britto shouldn't be included cause he miss a sitter, so we should just stick with the ones we have who currently not scoring?
That was the destination you were trying to get to on your long winding journey ?

No explicit reason to comment on Winchester because you were not advocating for him - although your sentence structure initially did bear a measure of ambiguity as to the object of your comments.
Nevertheless, I have no issue with Winchester's present inclusion. In the past, however, I have felt that his presence was gratuitous and perhaps premature. Yet, in the same breath I was an advocate of his progress. He has what some coaches refer to as a "nose for goals".
If your stubborn takeaway is that the conclusion formed regarding Britto is based on that one missed opportunity, so be it ... but I addressed that previously. More explicitly, Britto's concentration and application under pressure needs to be elevated and be more versatile in his deliverables. To impress Stern, he will have to do a lot more than being 26.
I studiously stayed away from suggestions because we could plunge into an abyss doing that. But, you seem to be fairly honesty engaged with this.
To put where I see Britto in context, I would give Lester Peltier a recall and place him centrally before I call Britto.
And I say that as a depth chart comment, not as a first-order solution. Yet, LP is more versatile, has the same olfactory instincts as Winchester and can do very interesting things when motivated and made to feel wanted/special. And his recent club move arguably earns him consideration.
Multiple topics are being discussed at the same time. The thread has been hijacked. It moved past JB several posts ago.

Many faces of Britto...Footballer turns actor and performer
By Ian Prescott (T&T Express)
JERREL BRITTO has at times made many sit up and clap his performances on the football field.
The 27-year-old striker will forever be remembered for a stunning goal he scored for Trinidad and Tobago when a member of the national Under-15 team coached by Ken Elie. Britto also captained the national Under-17s and played for the Under-20s before Dennis Lawrence called him up for the senior national team, where he played 64 minutes in a 2–2 draw against Grenada on April 29, 2017.
A professional footballer for the last decade, Britto has played for local pro clubs San Juan Jabloteh (2010-2011), W Connection (2012-2015), Ma Pau Stars (2016-2017), and also had stints in Mexico at Murciélagos (2015-2016), Guatemalan club Malacateco on loan (2015-2016), and with three Honduran clubs - Honduras Progreso (2017–2018), Real Sociedad (2018), Platense (2019) before heading back to Progresso in 2019.
However, with no football being played these days due to the Covid-19 lockdown, Britto has taken his talent to Instagram, where under the tag britto_j9, he has entertained and had followers laughing with a series of short plays.
Britto portrays characters such as both Fred Sanford and Elizabeth from the very popular 1970s American sitcom “Sanford and Son.”
His latest funny depiction is that of Shenenne, the character from the sitcom Martin, originally played by comedian Martin Lawrence, of the movie Bad Boys’ fame. Britto’s equally funny version can be found at https://www.instagram.com/p/B_n8WKwFaAF/?igshid=1t4gd7zlefywn.
The Covid-19 lockdown which has seen sport come to a halt in almost every country, has allowed former Queen’s Royal College standout Britto to explore his love for acting.
“With the quarantine, you’re just home doing nothing. I saw people on app (making videos) and ended up making ‘lil small videos,” Britto said.
Surely this could not have come out of the blue.
“From since primary school, I was into acting and going ‘lil competition and so on,” Britto explained.
“Then I saw this app (Tik Tok) where I could do something that I always liked,” he said.
“I started seeing videos that I could make over. I ended up getting into it, I started to post it and people started laughing and stuff.”
Britto said he carefully chooses what videos to make, ensuring there is nothing obscene, because young ones might be among his audiences. He has focussed strictly on comedy. Britto has also invented his own characters, posing as a school teacher giving on-line classes during the lockdown and even Prime Minister Keith Rowley at Covid-19 press conferences.
“I use scenes that everybody knows, like movies and shows,” he said. “I end up finding props. Sometimes I will dress as a woman, dress like a man, dress like the prime minister and these things.”
Between the funny stuff, Britto is also keeping his fitness up with regular exercise.
“I decided not to go back to Honduras in January. I was home just waiting for the next transfer window and this virus (Covid-19) came, so it ended putting everything at a standstill.
“I had things lined up, but the virus came and put everything to a stop. But I still doing my ‘lil training, exercising and keeping fit, so, after all this is done I will be ready to leave again.”
Central American football has provided mixed experiences for Britto.
“At the beginning it was difficult because of the language barrier. I ended up learning by force through music, movies and everyday conversations with players.”
He continued: “Adapting to the style of play, each country was also different. Mexico was more technical and tactical. Guatemala is technical but also brute force and in Honduras, they try to compose the football a ‘lil more. It is a bit slower than the other countries.”
Central American living has also been “all right”. Britto has found people friendly and had no difficulties walking the street and so on.
However, apart from entertaining and playing club football abroad, Britto still has ambitions to make an impact with the senior national team.
“Breaking into the (senior) national team is what I really want to do, and I hope I get that opportunity under this new technical staff,” he said.
“I am still of the age to make an impact on the national team,” Britto declared. “I am yet to break into the senior team as I would have loved to, seeing that I played with all the youth teams coming up and I already made my debut with the senior team.”

Amateur dramatics aside, he is a useful option for us - I'm a little surprised he hasn't had the call up since his début. It's always good to grow your profile as a footballer - sometimes we forget the technicality that they are "performers" and "entertainers" - Sportsman is a fancy label with greater technical and physical requirements.
