FIFA removes age limit on players switching nations
Reuters.
NASSAU, June 3 (Reuters) - Many players could get a new chance to play international football after FIFA's congress surprisingly voted on Wednesday to remove the age limit on changing national teams.
Under established rules players with dual nationality, who had already played for a country's national team at youth level, were only allowed to switch loyalties until the age of 21.
A motion from the Algerian Football Association, removing the reference to the age limit, was passed by 58 percent of the FIFA Congress, opening the way for many players to get a second chance in international football.
The rule change does not affect any player who was played for the full national team as they are barred from switching nations.
The Algerian change was backed heavily by African countries - many of whom will now hope to 'regain' players who have played at youth level for European countries.
Algeria could now have access to several players who have featured in France's youth teams such as Lazio midfielder Mourad Meghni.
Meghni, who was born in France to Algerian parents, represented France at Under-17 and Under-21 level but has never played for the full national side.

From what I think I've heard on this board he (unlike Zamora according to some views on here) still has a T&T flag hanging at his home and is proud to be Trinidadian. Why not call him?
-
yea samuel and i believe zamora are both eligible
-
hahahaha looks thing now, 8) men go want a bligh now. i sure they might get call fuss we desperate right about now lol
-
hoyte jlloyd and bobby zamora and other who could not have switched .... all we need now is tnt recognize grandparents
-
Yeah! Could really really use Samuel.

Yeah! Could really really use Samuel.

Yeah it is. If we get one of them it will be good. Dont need to worry about the forwards, midfield could get a bit stronger, but defense needs sharpening.

Great News Samuel will surely help us you guys think he will get a chance?
Samuel cannot play for Trinidad
Aston Villa full-back Jlloyd Samuel
Samuel has not won a full cap for England
Aston Villa full-back Jlloyd Samuel will not be able to play for Trinidad and Tobago after a ruling by Fifa.
Samuel has played for England Under-18s and Under-21s and featured - without playing - in the senior squad for the friendly against Sweden last year.
The 24-year-old was born in Trinidad and wanted to switch allegiance.
But Fifa ruled Samuel is too old to be allowed to play for another country as applications can only be made by players who are under 21.
"We have noted that Samuel has not played for the England senior team but also that he was born in 1981," said Fifa's Heinz Tannler.
I'm sure some people will accuse me of jumping on the bandwagon but I feel Trinidadian
Jlloyd Samuel
"In principle, a player can request once changing the association for which he is eligible to play international matches - but only up until his 21st birthday - and Samuel is 24."
Trinidad and Tobago are in a two-legged play-off against Bahrain for a place in the 2006 World Cup.
"I've played for the England Under-21s and I'm sure some people will accuse me of jumping on the bandwagon but I feel Trinidadian and want to play for them," said Samuel.
"I was born in Trinidad and it would make me proud to play for them."
Samuel is allowed to appeal against the decision, but is thought unlikely to succeed.
-
Eat crow!!!!!
-
Samuel or Akiel Edwards...hmmm tough choice. ;D I just on kix Akiel...u are one for the future, but right now Samuel could hold dat LB and possibly RB spot.
Samuel is 28 by the way.
-
remember hoyte want to play for england and dont really give a shit abt us... maybe the small one more willing
-
Only Samuel and hoyte if hoyte is willing. Zamora could stay right where he is. We definetly dont need him at this time. Samuel was interested the last time.
BM GET IN CONTACT WITH LATAPY LET HIM KNOW SAMUEL IS AVAILABLE.

Does anyone know the latest vies of J loyd or Zamora regarding playing for T&T ? Or do we have to wait until near qualifying for them to jump onboard ?

I think Jlloyd for one will love to play for Trinidad but think bout it Zamora case not like he gone cap for England so he would surely wanna cap for us... but we don't really need Zamora we have Jones and Scotty... nice to have the option though...
-
All I have 2 say is :thinking:

If J LLoyd can play why not Zamora. If he makes the commitment off course he should. All yuh full of crap.

"2. If a player has been included in a national or representative team of a country for which he is eligible to play pursuant to §1, he shall not be permitted to take part in an international match for another country. Accordingly, any player who is qualified to play for more than one national association (i.e. who has dual nationality) will be deemed to have committed himself to one association only when he plays his first international match in an official competition (at any level) for that association."
but rule have change and findley has not played in an official competiton for the senior team eg gold cup or WCQ ....

Hi All,
I have seen Bobby Zamora played on several occasions in the UK and he would be a great addition to the squad. I know his 'Old man' and I will contact him and pass the message on.
The man is a regular premiership starter at the moment.

Why wouldn’t they? Nobody else not tapping on they shoulder right now. ;D
Did anybody get in touch with any of them on facebook, Myspace etc? We could really do with any additional help in defense. Zamora could play a decent attacking midfield, he kind of reminds me of Daryl Roberts. Jloydd could fine ah spot in defense. Any help would do!!! Hopefully somebody send ah text before Saturday because Costa Rica coming ready fuh battle..

I thought Justin Hoyte was a right back. And poor games are relative to where he's playing them. He's in the Prem. Poor at Arsenal or Boro is still a few notches above good at Defence Force or DCU.

If Jlloyd is fit why not plug him in? The tactic's is a lil diffrent in Defence than offence. Zamora could geh ah 10 min bligh if we up by like three in late half. It not hard. Simple briefing.
-
I don't think they could be included in the next squad since the game is 3 days away am not sure if that stands for the Mexico game also... I hope not excited to see them in T&T gear don't wanna wait to long...

Jlloyd said that he was going to have a website:

Allyuh actually want Jlloyd and Hoyte... Seon Power better than Hoyte and everybody know he en good, but last two seasons Jlloyd play good so he go be welcome to come an sweat... Zamora???? Really??? He en good, he get some touches but that is only sometimes. And sombody say he a regular prem starter but thais onl until next season bcuz Fulham want Jason to come in and thais RELL bench 4 Zamora, so dont even run up yuh phone bill to call he "Old Man" cuz u just wasting time. Darryl Roberts have to come back and Jamal Gay en play much bcuz he injured. We dont need to bring in nobody except Jlloyd and i only support that bcuz he is a born Trini

Its still good to have the option and if i could remember sum Spanish club was after Zamora he is a respectable player, and for Hoyte he playing in the premier league and play a position where Spann usually take up he can't be worst than him for now can he? no disrespect to Spann by the way. Although don't get me wrong i more hype for Samuel also and Hoyte already said he wanna play for England not Trinidad.
-
From what I remember Zamora was more blunt about not being interested.
Bring Jlloyd but let Zamora haul he cyat.

Well palos I agree that having Jlloyd may be an asset to us.
But yu sounding as if the rest of the forward line that we have are firing on all cylinders. So put all of them in the mix zamora and all and then decide.

hoyte jlloyd and bobby zamora and other who could not have switched .... all we need now is tnt recognize grandparents
Not sure bout that, as that could really open the floodgates. I prefer at least a few homegrown players in a national side, gets them vaulable experience, exposure and a better oppertunity to get a good contract abroad. I agree it would be hypocritical to say foreign born haven't helped our cause but I think some coaches might get carried away with the influx of "international flavour" as our Jamaican neighbours did. Worked for a while fuh them, but currently I wouldn't say their experiment is paying off as it did initially. And I see their numbers of foreign born are dropping (at least fuh now).
As fuh Samuel, Hoyte and Zamora. As far as I am concerned they burned their bridges already as all had oppertunities to play for us before they originally became in-eligible, but all chose not to. But, if the they want to play and the majority of supporters want them as well......who am I to complain about their selection if it happens.

This is the same Bobby Zamora who said:
"Trinidad is my dad's country and to play in the finals would be a dream but West Ham are more important. I am only thinking about the club at the moment and do not want to be distracted from that."
A real patriot.
If T&T don't qualify for the World Cup, watch Samuel and Hoyte adopt a similar attitude.

mi get mi point out already and mi no care what come after :devil:.we only care about fifa ranking because thats what affect some of our players who should be playing in the premeire league but the ranking affect their work permit. i do not care who rank number one, i just hope we could get back in the 60s so morrison and others could get permit. usa rank 14, costa rica rank 41 but last night it show who is the best footballing team, usa defence was saving them for years. ranking position agains other country is the least, even when there is no match they are moving teams, i wonder what criteria they use. and who talkin about hex, any one who knows about football,knows that jamaica is solid but we start the group bad and mist out by goal diference in a strong group. the amount of players we have playing in europ, america and canada we could make more than one team. another thing i am hoping for is that after the world cup qualifiers, we could play some match agains T&T :devil:. in T&T. also hope you win agains costa rica saturday ar els unnu rass unda fire :rotfl:

Dat would make sense if roberts and samuel played de same position.
Samuel could play anywhere in the defence. He was outstanding in central defence for Bolton Wanderers this season but initially made his name and his England appearances as a left back for Aston Villa.
He can also potentially play left side of midfield too. He would be a wonderful asset to have for T&T and at 28 years of age, is in his prime as a footballer.
Roberts should also be in the mix IMO but he is more of an attacking midfielder / striker.

fellahs i was trying to stay away from this thread but i go throw in mih 2 cents, mih father related to jlloyd so i met him ah few times, the first time was after the game against wycombe in 2005.

now that was when he had high hopes of playing for england, now dem hopes real low so yuh never know, he might change his mind.

I don't like this whole business. It seem like in the future all dem youths who play for brazil under 21, under whatever and didn;t make it to the big side, go be scouted all over the world to come play for their country. more like a club scene in my opinion.

True... but it seems as if these rules change every 4 or 5 years. I can almost guarantee you that this rule will be changed again before 2014.

I don't like this whole business. It seem like in the future all dem youths who play for brazil under 21, under whatever and didn;t make it to the big side, go be scouted all over the world to come play for their country. more like a club scene in my opinion.
True... but it seems as if these rules change every 4 or 5 years. I can almost guarantee you that this rule will be changed again before 2014.
Yea i agree Fifa would recognize this activity and address it if it comes down to this...
doubt it .... all they did is give player options .... before once a player played at youth in an official match they were for life , stuck then they gave them the option to switch before 21 now once you ain't play for the senior national team in an official match you can switch .. which is good .....

Of all the possible players now made eligible to play for T&T, I think Jlloyd is the option needed most desperately in defence, and who've showed an open mind towards playing for us. Would like to see if he could help bring stability to our back line. The stronger and more cohesive our back line is, the more we will see the Mids and forwards creating opportunities.
Go T&T, NEVER give up
Take It To Them

there is a saying, those who win the war right the history. The 4 nations use to write all the rules to benefit them. Nothing ain't change. If TT go benefit why should we not take advantage of the rule change.

look what this all boil down to...these guys in England...who for some degree don't really care about Trinidad and Tobago...but England...yet we wanted them so bad to play for us...it go to show the T&TPL...suck...cause it's not producing quality players to represent our senior team...WHAT A DAMN SHAMN?

yeah very interesting point
if at the first approach they dont want to play for TTFF, let dem go

Jermaine Jones, decided he wants to play for the US. You think them US officials wasn't prodding him all the time. The USA talent pool very deep. You would think they will tell Jones " nah, is ok". They see a quality player they could get and they will take him whether they have local players or not.

meh Hex done going sour...allyuh want to finish me off now with dem cacaholes...
-
that good to know the american are stacking up on player personnel...i just think the brazilian who been playing in Trinidad and Tobago Proleague....have more desire to play for Trini than the one's that born in Trini...but up's to play for England and push Trini aside...even the brazilian who marriage a Trini woman...would run back and play for Trini if ask

Most likely cause they would never get the chance to play for Brazil... but players who could of played for England had a shot to play for them samuel was actually in england squad he was rated the 2nd best lb in premier league at one time... still sad that they didn't want to play for us over england but aye its a small caribbean Island's compare to a power house in the world. now though just waiting to see how they feel now exactly instead of all the guessing when none of us really know for sure...

Avery "Blade" John came on in the 85' min for DC's win over Chicago.... Vamos United....
Doh worry the left back position go be secure by August 12th Jlllllloyd could salt in England.
-
According to U.S. Soccer, the new rule eliminating the 21-year-old restriction will not go into effect until October 1, leaving Jones ineligible to represent the U.S. in their summer regional competition, the Gold Cup. However, he could be available for the final two matches of World Cup qualifying, which are games against Honduras and Costa Rica.
Anybody else heard about this?

Jones Door Opens August 2nd
By: Greg Seltzer (Soccer365)
Soccer365 has confirmed that Schalke midfielder Jermaine Jones will be eligible to suit up for the U.S. National Team after August 2nd, provided his international switch has been approved by the FIFA's Player Status Committee.
U.S. Soccer was actually told by a FIFA employee that Jones could not be eligible until October 1st, but a spokesman for the world governing body surmised that the particular messenger might have momentarily confused the international association rule with a club transfer change regarding youth players approved the same day that does not go into effect until that autumn day.
"I can confirm that the decision to lift the age limit in Article 18 of the Regulations Governing the Application of the FIFA Statutes will come into effect 60 days after it was taken at the 59th FIFA Congress," he told Soccer365 on Tuesday afternoon.
The 27-year old Jones, who took his decision to trade his Germany shirt for U.S. colors after Article 18 was stripped of the 21-year old age limit for international switches was ratified with 58% of the vote on June 3rd, is waiting to learn when his Player Status Committee case hearing will occur.
If the central midfielder's swap is given the green light, he would first be available for coach Bob Bradley's selection when the USMNT visits arch nemesis Mexico at Azteca on August 12th.

That's good news yes! but it would be better news if JLLoyd wants tuh play for us and greater news if he gets selected, BC the more i see dennis lawrence and dog play, the more i realize i was wrong about them fellas.
they need tuh pass on the knowledge and ride pine Bc they making the same old dotish mistakes they were making ompteen yrs ago when luis hernandes and eddie pope was playing and was beating the dickens out ah we.
i would think with age them men would be less prone tuh making those kinda silly blunders, but unfortunatly for us nothing's change! :-[
-
:) That's really good news ah wonder uncle Jack done trying to work he magic to get him to play..we need that like a baby need diapers to keep all that Sh!T we have been playin contained :angel:
If he plays I would feel more comfortable if we decide to play the 3-5-2 formation that Latas would most likely play I would actually like us to play 3-4-2-1 like this maybe
J .Samuel lawrence John
Yorke/Hyland Spann
Carlos Daniel
Tinto Glen/Samuel
Jones
But again wishful thinking...we maybe ass out as he blank we ;D

Yuh mad!!!! denise :devil: lawrence and avery!! jlloyd ain't that good, bredder we need an all out back four to get any kinda stability in the back dey.
i've been taxing my brain and recalling the whole qualifying campaign, did you know most of our goals came from the flanks into the center of defence, and dennis lawrence was @ the middle of all the goals that scored on us. it seem like him and clayton ince is ah match made in hell.
no need for carlos tuh be running up and down the righ flank like ah mad horse, we have tinto now so carlos could stay in the back, that's the kinda pace we need @ the right rare flank anyway.
the midfield needs ah face lift! spann and daniel cannot play @ the same time, we need some pace in the midfield. ah like tinto and samuels/ jagdeosingh,i feel whitley should be fit by then, and should be back in the line up. i also think bleeder or noel should start for yorke with roberts as an attaking mid, yorke could either start or finish the game, he cyar do 90 mins again, he don't have the legs anymore.
phillips/williams
carlos james/ lawrence avery
JLLoyd
tinto hyland whitley samuels/ jagdeosingh
roberts
KJ
breds we need positive results from here on in, no more experimentation! time for dat done!
