Fellas,,,,I looking for 4 points from this group.

I would like to think that we could pull off a win against Paraguay - this is no easy feat but if I was Beenie, this is what I would be aiming for.

Realistically, we don't have the pedigree, skill, strength, experience, depth or youth of Sweden or England. However, we have a great coaching staff and the art of strategy and a game plan will have to come in place.

I cross my fingers that between Sweden and England, by the luck of the Gods that we could pull off at least a drawer.

Just being realistic, guys and gals.

Hey, i just came across by chance the Sweden vs Senegal game from the 2002 World Cup that I taped, and even though that was over 3 1/2 years ago, i believe that the Swedes employ the same basic style of play today. Senegal won that game 2 - 1, and although I'm not saying that we are in the same class of the 2002 Senegal WC team, our styles of play are quite similar. From what I see, the Swedes are strong in the air, but lack indivual creativity, and can be broken down especially with the short passing game. Senegal were especially effective in the game by playing an attacking one, and not cynically laying back in defence and hoping only for counter attacks. All in all, you have to go at them, and go at them hard, and not sitting back in defence hoping to counter attack, as they would expect us to do.

Anyway, with some hard work and intelligent preparation, we could actually win that first game...among others. I see no reason why we can't do it, or shouldn't at least go for it..

Sweden conceded 4 goals in the WC qualification. 1 from the penelty spot, 1 from a freekick and two shots from outside the box. I think Sweden scored most of their goals from open play.

Hay, congratulations to you all on a splendid achievement in making it to the World Cup finals. He is one Irishman who will be supporting you all there. Good luck!
The president of the Trinidad and Tobago FA was interviewed on the BBC the other day and he said that the WC games against England and Sweden will be the first time T&T have played against these nations. Whereas the game against England will be the first ever meeting (and I am confident you could cause an upset), I seem to remember a game against Sweden sometime in the 1980's. Am I right? If so would someone have the T&T team that played that day.
All the best in Germany and I hope that you are the surprise team of the tournament (there is always one!!)

Sweden keeper Isaksson ruled out for rest of year
STOCKHOLM, Dec 14 (Reuters) - Sweden goalkeeper Andreas Isaksson will be out of action at least for the rest of the year with a thigh injury, Swedish public television SVT reported on Wednesday.

Isaksson was injured playing for Stade Rennes against Paris St Germain in the French first division at the weekend.

The 24-year-old, Sweden's first-choice keeper, is expected to keep goal for his country at next year's World Cup finals in Germany, where they have been grouped with England, Paraguay and Trinidad & Tobago.

Sweden plays 4-4-2 and T&T for the most part, except against Bahrain in Bahrain, plays 4-5-1

Do people think we should continue with the 4-5-1 against Sweden to try and compete in midfield?

Should Latas start against Sweden knowing that on the defensive side of the ball, we will be effictvely using 4 and not 5 midfielders?

Should Latas' replacement (if he doesn't start) be a defensive midfielder to help protect the central defenders a la Makele seeing that the 2 Swedish strikers in question are Ibrahimvoich and Larsson, rather than a Kenwyne Jones? Will this defensive midfielder conflict with Yorke's new role?

I'm referring to tactical strategies for the Swedes rather than personnel although in the case of Latas, playing him from the start has a direct effect on the tactics to be employed.

On another note, I saw Zamora for 90 minutes for the first time today. I've seen snippets of him before but this was the first time I actually watched him play a full 90.

My opinion, if he is elgible, he is more than welcome to try out for the T&T team. I know it's tough to judge someone on one performance, but for me he doesn't bring anything more to the table than either Kenwyne Jones OR Jason Scotland. In my opinion, he won't make the team.

What a team does in qualification is very different to what they do in the finals. We have an opportunity to improve leaps and bounds before playing Sweden next June. Apparently some of us have forgotten that Leo took over the team after 3 games had already been played. I'm fairly satisfied with the plans for the World Cup and I think the team will improve before the first game. I think the inculusion a few new players could change the face of the team altogether not that its bad now in any case.

Its the World Cup and all that matters is how we play on the day nothing else. We can't approach these games expecting to lose or playing for a draw. Let us play the game in the spirit of the game and work for victory. Anything else would be an embarrassment for the people of this country and mockery of the beautiful game of football.

We must believe that we can beat these teams. We must make our mark on the World Cup.
