Title: TTFF Wake up and use our foreign players!
Post by: Coach on July 01, 2008, 08:17:00 PM
TTFF if a player is playing in Europe or any other foreign league, it means that those players are better than those who are playing in our home league.

If our home league players were good, then they would have been playing in Europe or MLS etc..

There might be the odd home base player that would be a good fit with our national team but our team has to be made up of foreign players.

SIMPLE, OUR FOREIGN PLAYERS ARE BETTER THAN OUR LOCAL PLAYERS!!!!!!!!

ANTON AND MATURANA WAKE UP AND USE OUR FOREIGN PLAYERS!!

ah remember men cuss meh when it was first announced that Anton was assistant coach but he really shouldn't be anywhere near a national team....not even a U -5 team ......the one thing that fools people where Anton is concerned is that he is knowledgeable about the game but to his detriment he cannot translate that knowledge into anything practical and realistic..

I doh agree with that,A player who is foreign based playin substitute roles,and a local based who playin full 90 mins regular. Who is better and match fit,despite league levels?

Beenie did have control of our foreign, if Anton is a "coach" why can't he control the foreign players or is he qualified to coach at this level.

Any player will grab at the opportunity to represent his country at WC, this is the stage for him to move on to bigger goals!!

I agree with COACH but it is also a very good idea to build a strong home-based  squad.It might be of interest to note that Trinidad's best teams ever,1974 and 1989 had at most one overseas player.I think it was D.Nakhid.If Maturana has the skills to bring in some yutes and improve them then its for the benefit of Trinidad,at the same time including some of the overseas pros.

This is a general statement that can prove to be inaccurate.  Not because a player is playing in Europe means that he is better;  I would disagree.  There are many mitigating circumstances that can attributed to this being an incorrect statement i.e. age.  If a player is older but better than a younger player, the foreign teams are apt to take the younger player.  Why??? Because of the development factor.

Doh get caught up in the star boy nonesense.  Like you, I believe the the majority of our players in Europe are better but you should not generalize. 

For example, I have no problem playing the local keepers in front of Ince. 

Based on your philosophy, the US could field an entire team of foreign pros, however, why don't they?  Ask yourself that question.

Chemistry has a lot to do with a team's performance.  Therefore, you cannot just pickup 11 men and say, come let we play on the international level.  Sorry coach, I hear yuh but I cannot agree with you in totality.

Arimaman...I hear what you are saying but you are dealing with probabilities and possibilities...let's deal with the current reality .....and that is the crop of locally based players that played against Bermuda are not ready....do some have potential ..yes....
