If Terry Fenwick is hired as Hart's replacement...then that is telling me the TTFA don't care a damn ...Yes I agree they should just forget the whole thing and bring back Jamal Shabazz.
they would have done better with Shabba...look madness now...
when he lorse de next two games..dey go fire he too?!
I honestly not on the fire SH bandwagon. I know for a fact we doh have the 2 or 3 "midas touch" players that could make us play like the Strike Squad or the Warriors. Maybe you can blame him for tactics or not choosing the right player for the right time. But for the short space of time that he has with the team makes his job even more challenging. Just as I like Molino, I like Jomal. I honestly feel he, together with Molino, Cummins, Cato, JJ are the future. Yes, they just not clicking. They need time, but we have no time because we are in the Hex. Our team did not play good, but they were not bad. Well we lost. We lack persistent intentisty. After watching US-Mex game, we have to play each game, home and away like is the final game. We dangerous on the fast break, but all teams can adjust to fast breaks, even us. We still not seeing our forwards being able to beat opponents one on one. JJ, Cato and to a lesser extent Jomal had some brief interludes, but they need to be more persistent.The problem with your post is that its the coach's job to get the players ready for the job at hand not the players themselves and 3 years is more than enough time for a coach to build a team I have seen coach's like Z Vanes and F Maturana come to T&T and build a team in a few months time S Hart just can't cut it at this level.
When in comes to KJ, well we know his success depends a lot of the service that he gets from the rest of players. Put good crosses and the perfect long ball and KJ is the perfect striker. He did not get much of that. KJ is not the kind of striker who can bring the ball and distribute like how Wayne Rooney does at times. He needs the ball in the box.
Well defence. Hmmmmmm. Coach need to fix that part of the game now. They just screwed up in the end. I like Cyrus. I like his coolness. But sometimes he escorts players to far into our area and by then he is afraid to tackle because he may give away a pk. He has to up his game, or pick someone else. The irony of our team is the two wingers can play wing backs. That is to tell you the paucity of attacking players we have at the moment, that our two best the attacking defenders are used as forwards.
Let's not give up hope as yet. The onus is on the players to find the intangibles that makes players great from good. Find a way to win. If they feel Friday was tough, wait till they reach Honduras.
The Coach already had in his mind that Costa Rica was a more talented team than T&T.The Hex is no place for cowards T&T is not going to qualify for the WC playing like that it will be better if he just resign .
So the man played it safe and hoped for a point. If we are honest most teams in the Hex feel that we are the whipping boys and that they can get points . What we have to do is surprise some of them away.
The trick for the Hex is to win your home gains and try for a point away. A win against Honduras will change the whole equation.
its not just about running with the ball the goal is to create outlets by having the front 4 exchange passes to create space that coupled with KJ strong hold up flick on passing can work well again in instances where we don't have a recognized creator in the team......which it was fairly obvious was missing, Hyland has his qualities and played the fairly well against Guat away but he simply can't be relied upon to fill that role against better defenses......again what I am proposing is radical "by our standards" and risky no f**k....but we looked at sea without someone dynamic in the middle, at this stage going for speed and short passing in the absence of No.10 creativity is worth the risk IMO. again ah patchYou are living in a dream world there are players that can play the #10 role but the coach is not using them because he uses a English style of football.
If you read my previous post you will see why.He can totally play 10.Just because a player could beat 2 to 3 men that doesn't make him a #10.
So exactly what is he missing to play? The strategy should be to put all your best players on the field in the Hex, one way or another. He is definitely one of the best.
U don't need a genuine 10 just someone that can be disruptive defenses in the middle in lieu of a genuine 10...... hart could opt for 2 wingers in the "half space" and play one holding mid, it risky but we have wingers to bun right now and we look at sea without a genuine "creator", controlled pace and athleticism in d front 4 could be a useful patch. 4-1-4-1If you put a player like that in the middle of the field teams will just bottle him up and make him give up the ball with a direct path to goal its better you use him on the wings were its less costly.
He can totally play 10.Just because a player could beat 2 to 3 men that doesn't make him a #10.
If we take into consideration his playing position, form, availability and Molino's imminent ommission, then he should be the obvious choice at #10 vs Costa Rica and Honduras.J Williams is not a #10 he is a left winger he may also be used as a right winger but not a #10.
Tell me what do you mean by long term?B St Clair had the same problem when he was T&T coach and they was able to fix the problem when they fired him.yuh need to watch T&T vs MEX last two encounters, you will see a rhythm, more so after being two goals behind, down to the very last second of the game with a corner kick an being showered with plastic bottles, is goal, this rhythm is no fluke, it is not about one player, it is because of this rhythm why it is called the beautiful game, an we have it and Hart will get it to Russia starting with costa rica...Gold cup football and World cup football is 2 different types of football in the Gold cup teams try out players formation etc so Hart got away with that open football game but in the WC is the real deal teams tighten up there defense and study there opponent very well so there is no more open games.
Gold Cup is a serious tournament, equivalent to the Copa or European Cup. Teams come to play and the squads are usually stacked. I don't quite agree with your argument. We play on the counter under Hart, so I wouldn't consider that open football. We just need to tighten things up at the back, and the midfielders need to track the runners all the way into the box.

That was a quick fix. Exactly what I was talking about. Has the mentality changed, longterm? Not really.

Fire Hart/or resign and appoint who? Dennis Lawrence?S Hart is already a flop if after 3 years you still getting knock out by some Caribbean team 2 games would not change anything you need to be shown the door now.
We aint have no money.
This is like everything else in the world, you get what you pay for.
Hart is a solid coach. Lets stick with him at least till the first 2 games. If he flop, and we somehow get some money, we could go in for a higher pedigree coach for next year.
If he flop and we have no donsai, well we just have to hope for the best.
We have been down this road many times before.

Ffisback, I wanna ask you a question in response to your post above regarding playing the ball through the middle...under Hart, haven't we seen that type of ball played? Against USA (at home and for the first 43 in Jacksonville)? Against Mexico, 2015 GC and friendly, against panama, Saudi Arabia, etc etc.No S Hart plays a English type of football were you just try get up the wings and get the ball into the box as quick as possible.
Calling for SH head is premature. Outta timing...that wld just be another unsettling blow to the players mental...they already have a disruption with Molino. In my humble opinion he needs to shake up the players because men looking comfortable! If we lose the first 2 matches for WC qualification, at that point there will be a need to evaluate his performance!
Too early for this breddah! It's the players, not the coach!
Once again people are confusing friendly games gold cup games and WC games nobody cares about friendly games gold cup games are a test to see were your team players formation etc are at on a competitive level the WC is a different ball game teams tighten up there defense and by then have scouted there opponents very well so there will be no more open games like you saw in the gold cup.K Molino brings something to the team that none of the other players can bring do a little trickery that could help turn the game in our favor he is no Latapy but he is the best we got right now with out him the team is pretty ordinary .right now my new name for d team is the T&T Heart Beat, an if yuh aint all heart, well you and Molino could do like ah tweezer an pull out ah here...T&T is not going to get far with out there best player when this team start to get licks yuh go have to change it name to the Heart Beat of licks.
I like Molino as a player but you not serious when you say he is our best player?
Please back that up with the criteria you used to arrive at that conclusion
This "pretty ordinary" team won a lot without MOLINO, they got to the last Gold Cup quarterfinals, beat Panama away, drew Mexico twice, beat Guatemala away and drew the US at home… All without Molino.
Are you sure he bringing something special? What are our result with him?
I noticed you failed to quantify your statement other than him being "tricky".
Sorry but Tricky is not enough.
Who looking for tricky on Spain, Argentina, Holland, Germany..International football do not rely on TRICKY.
I ask again quantify him being our best player as you claim!
K Molino brings something to the team that none of the other players can bring do a little trickery that could help turn the game in our favor he is no Latapy but he is the best we got right now with out him the team is pretty ordinary .right now my new name for d team is the T&T Heart Beat, an if yuh aint all heart, well you and Molino could do like ah tweezer an pull out ah here...T&T is not going to get far with out there best player when this team start to get licks yuh go have to change it name to the Heart Beat of licks.

You probably could not vouch for any game that T&T played possession football under S Hart, I will take a quick fix over somebody that does not have a chance to take us to the WC anyday.T&T vastly improved from the days of Shabazz but don't get it twisted the big names in Concacaf are not going to panic when they have to play a team that can't win there home games.This dude out of touch. Hart has gotten the team to play more possession football out of the back. Problem is that the player pool is not deep, and we need to not make poor decisions in the defensive and middle third of the field. One of the goals in the Martinique game came from a player attempting to make a weak backward header to his teammate. The ball was intercepted by a Martinique player, leading to a counter and a goal. We suffer from serious lapses in concentration and poor decision making.Possession football is when a team could knock the ball around with about 7 touch's not watching J Jones L Garcia and C Cato run up the field with the ball. When a player makes poor decisions in the defensive and middle third of the field its his fault but when a team does it that's the coach's fault.
The quality of the player pool is overrated. Without our main front three vs Martinique, we looked ordinary. I'll say it again: The Pro League is not cutting it. The level of play is somewhat stagnant, and it will not improve until the coaching stock improves.
By the way, it's way too early for this fire Hart talk.

Firing Hart now would be the difference between 3rd and 4th spot.
In general, we've been playing possession football, although I can't vouch that was the case vs Martinique. You're looking for a quick fix: aka Beenie. Well, that's not going to happen. I'll admit that I am concerned about the complacency that has crept into the team lately, but overall, we've been a vastly improved team under Hart. We've earned some respect from the big names in Concacaf, as we're no longer a door mat; we've been much more competitive.
