Jlloyd Samuel is ah hard back man. Zamora is ah hard back man. Kalou ent 16 yrs old.
Freddy making the same decision as men, playing with men, thinking like men, sounding like ah man...but when he talkin like that people say he is ah child. Well the list is long of hard back men who make choices that are selfish. It has nothing to do with being a child.
The fella and he "advisors" been making grown up decisions all along BUT when they say wow look at the publicity that Ghana getting and the love they getting he want to jump ship...not as a kid...but as a MAN. Yuh doh need to be no child to realize that.
Allyuh ent read the papers in America and in T&T. 16 yr old fellas raping, killing, robbing, thiefing and some even going to medical school. Guess what MEN do the same thing.
He ent thinking as no child He thinking as ah man. And the fact remains that he turn them down...for the World Cup and the Nation's Cup just like we get turn down too.
I a man. I doh think bout rape and murder. Neither do any ah de men I know. Young people killing and rapin mean dey thinkin like men? Nah. Seem to me dey thinkin like young people makin stupid choices without wisdom. Say what yuh want, but the fact remains dat de teenage brain is not yet fully-developed.
There's a reason de FIFA deadline is age 21. FIFA (unlike you) realize dat young people don't often make decisions wit insight. FIFA (unlike you) is willing to let youngsters mature and live and develop as people.
Maybe you was a exceptional youth, but I didn't know what de hell I wanted at 17. Most ah we eh even know at 20. Even when we thought we did. So if de youth confuse about two different countries pullin him. If he have difficulty dealin with being under pressure and scrutiny since 14. If he say one ting yesterday and change he mine tomorrow. I willin to give him some room to grow.
