Thx, this is my first time seeing him play and he looks like one for the future. Kevin Molino is also standing out. Everyone else looking okay but not outstanding.who set up d goal> who ever that fella on d left is, he started off d game playing like a boss doen d left fllank.
Micah Lewis
Only one bright spot in the game (and I'm not talking about Villas-Boas)
Won't agrue with u but anybody can look at Hyland and see he's not a CB. If he was he'd be playing there from time. You comparing Hyland to a big player like Masch tells me we can't continue this discussion. Have a good one.the difference between Masch and Hyland is Masch is a veteran who good enough to play either while Hyland is a young player who now looking to establish himself
Whatever fellah that is just bs talk..
Mascherano filled into the Barcelona backline under pretty much the same circumstances as Hyland... Injuries! Have nothing to do with him being a veteran or his experience, because he never filled in there for Liverpool, West Ham or Corinthians before that. The fact is that when you have no CB's available a DM is usually the next best option because of their positional awareness and obviously the coach sees Hyland as the best candidate among his squad.
The Genk back line looked more solid with Hyland in the back. Positionally he was decent, he distributed very well when in possession and he did the simple things right. The plain and simple fact is that they came up against a team that was miles better than them in every position on the field and it showed.
Happy for Hyland, for the experience gained and the opportunity to play against some world stars.
One to tell the kids about.
Why was Hector excluded? Coach's call, I guess. No two coaches will necessarily see a match the same way, or select the same team, and that's fine as long as one wins. As an example, Latapy, our finest talent was left on the bench by Beenhakker for much of the Germany campaign. Hopefully, the campaign will be long and Hector will have more opportunity to get into Pfister's plans.
Agreed; very good comment. Eve made more sense than anythign ive heard in the last 40minshahahaha...wanrner jess save ah shot on goal...anybody cld call these commentators and tell them to vibess lol
Angus just make more sense in 2 minutes than all them men put together in one hour.
How come we have to listen to a set of old men when we have young dynamic ex-pros who actually know modern football sitting in the stands. TnT really limited by a failure to let young people succeed the dinosaurs out there. Politics, TTFF, football commentary, same thing.
Latapy done what most local coaches did, play their favorite players, ignore players who could make the team better, and go on wid all kinda childish fackry.
uptil now we never hear latas in ah post or pre game interview explainin to the fans of his team selection and why certain players were included and excluded. seems like any coach who fackin wid aklie , makkan and keon does fall on their faces.
ah hope the next coach don't even bother wid these guys, as ah matter of fact latas got it right too little too late!
i did like the last set of players that latas had on the team, the only thing was , it was too little too late! had he done that earlier he would've had more success.
i'm not gonna stay here and thank latapy for anything except jovin jones and houton hector, that's the least he could've done considering the circumstances and the time allotted to him.
good riddance latapy, loved yuh as ah player, "but hated you!!!!" as ah coach!
PS: i bet all the birchallites must be jumping for joy!
Wingbacks covered but it look like only Marshall and James playing centre back. What if one gets injured? Would have liked to see Robert Primus in the mix.
Anyway besides that the rest of the side look solid.
If this side can't tap up Guyana and St. Vincent and get at least a draw against Haiti then some serious questions need to be asked.
Cyrus would be the back up CB....and yes Primus should be in the mix.
When was the last time Gay play with the team? He have no club, unknown my arse. What about Peltier and Tinto? Did they make the last couple games? I going and check.
Breds, Gay, similar to Hyland a couple of yrs ago, is a clear talent who needs caps and needs the training until he gets another foreign contract. If he signs with a pro league team it becomes less desirable for a foreign team to pick him up because there will be a transfer fee. Thats y Hyland stayed so long without a club bec it was only a matter of time before he got picked up by a foreign team. Gay's agent see's him as being in the same position. So Gay is not without a club bec he's shitty, it's because he looking for trial opportunities abroad and being attached to a club here makes him less desirable bec of the fee that will eb attached.
So according to you the best way for a club to see how good you can play is to not to play.
Go ask Hyland how well that worked for him? I think it worked out just fine . Agents have a resume and a box full of tapes to promote the player, if the club likes the resume and the tapes, they will send for a trial and then they get to see the player in action. Those clubs (the kind Gay's agent is targeting) don't have scouts to send to pro league games because it’s a waste of their time and money because our league is shit. If u understood the process for getting signed abroad you'd understand y it is sometimes advantageous to remain unattached.
They don't have scouts to send to PFL games, so explain to me what tapes they watching? Of him training? Of him in HS? OF him 2 years ago? Of him on the National team?
Men playing day in and day out and cannot get call up, yet a man "training" and he getting call up. You wonder why we cyah go nowhere.
Like I said, go ask Hyland and many other free agents how they got signed, tapes and trials. Tapes are compiled by the agent based on years of footage; lets not forget Gay has played in Germany, youth WC and National team, there is plenty of footage to help market him. BUT i totally see ur point, it is unfair for inform players who playing for a club week in and week out to get left out when Gay getting calls right through, point taken Who would you suggest should take his place in the team?
hyland rejected a jabloteh contract extension but had a trail at Portsmouth in January and rednapp was on his tail also he was a main stay in the national team that was 2 years back and he was 18 turning 19 .... Gay was in Europe and could not make the cut/fallen out a favour at his club he signed a two year contract and they parted ways in one year ... gay has not been with club since January 2010 he is 21 and 22 in January he needs to be playing football at a club ...
Gay, similar to Hyland a couple of yrs ago, is a clear talent who needs caps...Gay is not without a club bec he's shitty...Gay already get a bligh with a low level German team, get stuck in de reserves and then drop. I don't think his talent is quite as clear as Hyland's.
