is that our people are quick to "big up" players that have plenty "small goal type skills"
Everytime u make your case about Hardest's ability you mention he does pass "cap and beat like rain". You're not convincing me that he deserves a try out with that. Tell me he could:
- control and pass under INTENSE pressure with very little time allowed on the ball;
- tell meh he could defend and track back and keep the shape against top class midfielders who never stop running
- tell meh he is a team player who will ADD to the current team chemistry
- tell meh he will ADD to a midfield that currently includes Yorke, Birchall, Whitley, Spann ,Theobald, Edwards, and Latapy
- if none of the above - the tell meh he's about 18 years old and can learn these things from the experience of being the 23rd player on the roster.
The ability to Cap and furs and belt man in Trini doh mean shite at WC level!
he can do all dat, double dat what yuh say, hardest is an unselfish player, he will add 2 de mid and bring life 2 we team, truss meh
Not so sure about that TI. I've watched him on quite a few occasions and he would only play when the team attacked, when the team was defending he went missing. Now seeing that we are going to a
WORLD CUP, and in a pretty tough group where we'll have to defend as a unit and everyone including strikers will have to work like there life depended on it, I'm not sure, in fact I'm positive that someone who hasn't played regularly at some kind of established level would struggle to fullfil these duties. I'm not saying he dosen't have ability but he needs more than that.
