Do you all think Latapy is in any way a liability AS A STARTER for the Warriors for the World Cup?
Judging by his average fitness over the last year, he is basically good for about 60 minutes tops. Lets say a good half.
But more importantly, he is very slow, although he controls the tempo and rhythm of our attack, you cant help but notice how he slows the game down so much.
More than likely, we will be a counterattacking team for the world cup, right?
But I guess we have no better players who can hold the ball.
He have some real hard work to do fitness wise over the next 2-3 weeks.
I personally dont see him being used other than a sub coming on at about 60 or 70 mins into the game if we behind in a close game.
I cant see him as a starter, not with Seaton, Yorke, Edwards, Birchall as sure starts, unless Beenie persevere with him as the left midfielder, which i honestly believe is not the best situation.
But the man magical and can win the game for us by himself. So different rules apply to him I guess.
I just have a feeling that we will see less of Latapy in this WC than we expect.
