Foreign based will make up 90% of this team and yes they better than the locals.
This is the part that still has me worried for a couple reasons:
1. So only 10% of the final squad will have been training for more than 2 weeks with Leo. The rest starting over from scratch next week, learning the new style etc. and will have the same 5-6 days of training before Panama. So basically the past two weeks was pointless for 90% of the squad.
2. The new quick-passing style you described seems more suited to the local-based players. The UK-based men just come from 8 months straight playing boom-kick, long ball style. It will not be an easy adjustment for them to make.
Thaanks for the report and the game breakdown but you know the BOTTOM LINE is that asquad who are representative of the best locals lost the game.Period.
No Excuses ; Rome was not build in a day but we have no time for excuses. If we have the best of the local pros, we expect better results.
I have a question. Beenhakker has been working for 10 days. Exactly how much time must elapse before T&T axes another coach.Ah had dat on a test last year, and ah fail,lemme se if ah get it right this time. 11 days?
....
The modern wing back has to be
1- Athletic
2- Fast
3- Extremely fit
4- Able to recover QUICKLY when caught out of position
5- Put pressure on the opposing winger/wide player both offensively and defensively
Foreign vs Local eh?
And here I was thinkin all dis time all a dem was Trinis wit de possible exception of Birchall who still choosin to take a chance to represent we.
Oh well.....
Trying to help T&T Sam ? He jus trying to help heself, he trying to lift Curse! He believe that too, "Yeah boy since ah shit dem up, everything jus dive for meh"(how to say dat with a British accent, Rodney fixit up dey)....ah nex one did dive to buh he didn't realize it, it commin to come, ah go need to hear ah scottish translator...ah hope dah one didn't bounce back, cause ah gettin headaches 2 weeks now, shim
Translation please....preferably in English...dah scottish brogue or maxgism yuh torkin dey kinda difficult to follow.
...............
Yorke going to Sydney as a big player, I hope he dont let down he self, he went to Blackburn and Birmingham with the same status, but one thing I have to say, he trying to help T&T and he will get props for them.
No man bigger than they country.... none.
Lol yuh making meh laugh max it seems you taking this more personal than he probably would however you do make a good point in terms of announcing his lack of brain (on the field mind you) wont actually help him improve as a player but im not exactly in a position to coach him now am i ? So as a patriot of my team (wether u may think this or not) it is frustrating to me to see a player of obvious athletic ability and some attacking prowess...linger in footballing mediocrity knowing that it is in his hands to part extent that our goalscoring threat will lay it doesnt inspire confidence....so I will express my frustration and state my opinion it wont please everyone but then thats why its my opinion and not maxg or sam's or cornell.Personal, not atall. However, I think that some players do read this board, and I just feel that type of criticism, would not be encouraging or beneficial to the player you want to affect. As a matter of fact it is only because I have respect for many of your observations and post, I bothered to comment, and I feel you do know a lot about the game, and may be even able to teach me a thing or two. I understand your frustration, yet if you allow that frustration to develop, it may take away from your own development, as well as mine. As a young aspiring coach, possible future coach, I don't think that is the way to go.
Well max first of all that all speed no brain isnt a joke its a fact a sad one at that but just because he is a national player doesnt mean he is above criticism......how would you improve in any aspect of your life if youre not made aware that youre struggling in it?
I find Rojas is a good player. He look comfortable when he has the ball....control it well and ting.
I remember he used to play more midfield before.
His faults look like things that could be worked on with the coaching staff(rsl) over time....just a matter of adapting his approach...be more vigilent marking your man and close down the players faster instead of trying to block the angles and hold them up until help come....almost like he fraid he get beat and no-one behind him so he won't attack the ball.
Show him some tapes and instances where he backing off instead of attacking the ball....and where defenders floating in behind him. He need to learn real fast or is trouble.
Those things come natural if from young you was always a defender but I eh think he come through the ranks as an out and out defender cuz he coulda dribble. Avery could school him cuz he attacking the ball right through.
I jes want to know who replaces Maxg? Where/Who are the local montreal students/understudies from this? Is said understudy a woman? Does she speak French? Where is the succession planning? Who responsible?
