Football / Re: Theobald on trial with Seattle Sounders

Densil Theobald lifts a curling shot toward goal but Nolly makes a beautiful outstretched save. When I ask Simon who that was, he refers to him as the Trinidadian. Man, Tobago really got shafted by being the second name. Nobody is ever referred to as a Tobagan.

Football / Re: Do our players understand each others roll?
« on: February 14, 2009, 08:29:49 PM »mr maturana is not an international coach and he don't know how to recognize talent.
he suppose to know which players could cut it from the players that can't. i kinda sense that from this fella's attitude towards certin players that he maybe a bit stoubon and vindictive.
man like cyd getting leave out for spann, cyd isn't injured, niether is avery or james. lewwe see if he will leave out cyd , avery , james and roberts this time around.
this coach needs to leave we football and go up the islands where dem fellas really need his help. but his services are no longer required here!!!!!!!! HE EH ABLE!
The man start a 19 year old striker who went on to get a contract in Germany.
At least he was willing to look at young players.
We cannot stay dependent on the senior warriors. They are a plaster for a sore. Bad planning on the path of the TTFF and last minute preparations is why there aren't any young warriors with the experience to take up the mantle. No matter how hard we try that is undeniable. What kinda preparation the U23 & U20 teams does get? How are players supposed to step up to the next level? Between creeping and running is walking. We want men to skip the walking phase and be sprinters.
Same thing with players understanding their role. They need to play with each other under the coach to get that understanding.

I think a 4-4-1-1 is the best option. And the one in front of the midfield should be a striker who mobile and does help out defensively i.e. Daryl Roberts. Props to Stern for putting in a shift though.
I would say it again. T&T is not an attacking team. Players might think so, coach might think so but the tools not there. We have a midfield that can shoot. We do not need to run at teams and take crosses. We need to possess the ball so the defense not under pressure and tee up men at the top of the box to shoot. Any how u look at it we not going to get no set a quality cross coming off of either wing. A little spark of individual creativity here and there and we ok. We need to play to our strengths and develop new ones while we at it. If we have the ball the other team can't score.

After that first free kick goal I tell my padner we good to take two more. Es was playing football and we was looking like some dunce and it start with Ince.
We under pressure. He get a goal kick and he voom kick it up the road. Jones does not control and is pressure in we a$$ again. We all know pressure does buss pipe. Latas should have introduced himself into the game and also change the tactics. Men does get vex but USA does kill off a game with them kinda lead by playing what we like to call negative football. Back pass and keep it in midfield till yuh dead.
We played into the Spanish and them hands. We cannot run at Spanish teams. They will always kill us on the counter. We need to take our time and build plays and take opportunities when the come. At no time was Trinidad ever a counter attack team because we cannot string passes together and travel with the ball at pace. The defence need to learn to possess the ball to release pressure. The boom kick only helping build pressure.
Our players are no more technically competent than the US. In fact we might be less. We need to play the same kinda grind it out football they do and capitalize on setplays. In the USA Mex game who look more pleasing to the eye? Men cry down Beenie style but when you have lemons yuh cannot get grape juice. All this flair football man does talk bout. Yes we could hit a spanner but what happens after? Is either a wayward pass or we get foul. Jones need to start running at players and creating for the rest of the team. His aerial prowess can only be exploited on set pieces so we better know who taking the set pieces and they better know where Jones want it because if we waiting to exploit Jones aeiral prowess in the run of play JW might get Sainthood first.
About Stern penalty. I watch the same training video other men watch. I remember somebody talking about Stern and Birch kicking during the drills. You play how you practice. That was the most unprofessional training I see and the fact that all them men kicking wide was in the video leads me to believe it was probably worst to see in person. Man training Carlos by the cooler talking shit. The two pregame video had a fete match atmosphere. If they thought they had a win they shoulda be practicing to make it convincing. This team not hungry. We need hungry players on the fiedl. I cuss Mats selection many times but if he drop some of the so called seasoned pros and bring in hungry players I cyah get vex.
My advice to my fellow supporters. Figure out how best yuh like yuh lemonade and let it quench yuh thirst because until the ingredients change lemonade is the only drink of choice.

« on: January 28, 2009, 10:18:59 AM »
The Argentinos game looked of higher intensity. In the clips men looked like they were hustling the ball higher up the field than is normal for a Trini side. Latas had a really good shot in one of the two videos but the man belly real big.
Theobald do himself some service with that goal.
From the little seen, the passing and first touch of the team seems improved. It kinda hard to judge what going on with out seeing the whole flow of the game though.
At least they getting match practice and winning.
Who is # 2?

Football / Re: Time For The U.S. To Act Like CONCACAF's Top Dog
« on: August 27, 2008, 11:34:07 PM »
Our team need to prepare for the game and leave it all on the field. I think as another poster stated the difference between USA and the rest of CONCACAF is the goal keepers.
Our forwards need to go out and run at the US defense and take the game to them. The midfield need to not be afraid of attacking. Brazil start playing this total team football and now they getting they a$$ wash. Plain talk bad manners. Pressure does buss pipe. We cannot defend for 90 mins and look for a draw.
USA does grind out their results. I think Guat was the better team on the night but USa stuck in the game and got the result. I think we can do the same too. The midfield just need to work harder on both sides of the play.

Football / Re: Guatemala vs U.S.A
« on: August 20, 2008, 10:23:57 PM »Guatemala's attacks come mainly from the left side through Rodriguez. Ruiz plays well with a defender to his back and holds the ball well. I thought they played well enough to get a point. Howard made some big saves. Guatemala went to sleep on a corner and lost the game. It will be a challenging contest against them. As they will definitely attempt to regain ground against is.
I think they are capable of attacking down either wing. Maybe they just liked what they saw on the left. Howard was alert and off the line in a timely manner. What about the ball across the box that resulted in a throw away? That should have been a tap in. Guat could have won that game.

Technically Guat looks very sound when they are not under too much pressure. Their passing is decent and they have shown they can shoot if given space. Hopefully our midfield will show up when we play them because USA's high pressure threw them off. Since USA fell off on the pressure it has been all Guat.
