Who profited more from the Reyna - Latas acquaintance.....

[davidephraim]

I might be wrong but I believe that the time that Latas spend in Rangers was quite beneficial for Claudio Reyna. I think that Reyna, as tactical as he is got a chance to work on his short passing game as well as sensibility & skill on de ball in the presence of Latapy "de great"   All who remember how Reyna was playing in dem days, give some feedback. Is it me or was there a noticable improvement in Claudio Reyna's game when he was at Rangers with the Master.?

Whenever he healthy of course because he always break up.  Poor Reyna..

Yeah but in one game back with TnT look what difference he made

[Filho]

the answer is NONE

ok, maybe not NONE...but unless you talk to Claudio there is no answer to this question. Even if his game improved exponentially at Rangers, who is to say who his influences were. this question trying WAY too hard to glorify Latas. Latas wasn't even the best player at Rangers at the time and Reyna game didn't improve as soon as Latas showed up. If anything, I think he has improved at Man City...probably as he gets to play against a higher caliber of player, week in week out...and naturally becoming a smarter more experienced player with age

[davidephraim]

Well breds if yuh let de Celtic coach tell it, Latas and Amourouso were the best players on Rangers and de only ones that could make his (Celtic) Team.
This post was not that far-fetched due to Reyna's style. It isnt clear to see, however Reyna I believe would tell de world dat de little magician definetly helped him keep de ball on his feet and read a little more.

Reyna is still a shit snake....Doh mention him and latas in the same sentence ever again

You can't be serious?...Claudio Reyna is no magician...He is a good team player but nothing close to Latapy...Latapy is the best midfielder the CONCACAF ever produce

ah love it!!

Claudio REyna is a very good player, but if latapy received that same breaks that he got, then latapy's career would have been far better that his!!

It is kind of strange to state that they gained from each other at Rangers.

this is a kind of weird post!

[Filho]

if it weird.....

there is absolutely no way to answer that question unless you talk to Claudio Reyna. And trying to guess is a joke. Doh matter how good Latas was, and how much Reyna improved or changed his way of play...there is no telling who his influences were until he comes out and says it.

[sprog]

Eh all yuh remember how latas was tearing up de place at Rangers was starting and scoring a couple too until that sob McLeish took over. Yuh know he aint like latas since Hibernian and he start to bench de man, next ting yuh know de man cant even make de bench.Well yuh see what happen to he now outside for he arse, what goes around comes around, BIT**H!

I contend that Latas career has always been better than Reyna, to a certain extent.. domestic championships, Champions League football and now a World Cup. No matter though, in terms of talent, there is no comparison.

haha.....I prefered Ramos' style of play...even post-skull trauma. 

[vibetrini]

Reyna is a good midfielder... Latas i feel is a different class doh... one thing i would say is dat Reyna may not have the talent of Latas buh he appears to be more consistent week in and week out... Latas ofcourse on his day can single handidly win ah game for yuh (lewwe hope he have atleast 3 ah does match winning games starting June).

Skipper Reyna plays down injury 
 
I'm hoping I've got away with something very minor

Claudio Reyna
USA skipper Claudio Reyna is confident of being fit for the World Cup despite suffering a hamstring injury in the 1-0 friendly loss at home to Morocco.
The Manchester City midfielder, who has been sidelined for much of the season with ankle and shoulder injuries, lasted just 13 minutes in Nashville.

"I stretched out for a ball and it just tightened up on me. As a precaution, I came off," said the 32-year-old.

"I'm optimistically thinking that it is not going to be something long term."

Reyna, who will have an MRI to determine the extent of the injury, added: "I'm hoping I've got away with something very minor."

The outing was Reyna's first for his country since September 2005 when the Americans beat Mexico to secure their place in Germany.

He subsequently broke his right ankle in December and missed eight weeks of the season only to injuring his shoulder three games into his comeback in March which ruled him out for a further four weeks.

Reyna has scored eight goals in 109 international appearances and has played in the last three World Cups, although he sat out the opening game in 2002 with a quadriceps strain.

The USA start their 2006 campaign against the Czech Republic in Gelshenkirchen on 12 June
