Palos how u mean, T&T have to think about we self........We have to start building for the future. 80% of the Japanese sqaud does play outside Japan.............So there big guns aint gonna be there either. Why would I bring men who gonna be retiring in less than 1 year, you have to make hard decisions not be sentimental..........
Trust me the we eh go recognize too much of the Japaneese squad either !!
jsut my shilling
Ah hear wha yuh sayin and it make sense. Ting is....Friendlies serve a dual purpose:
1 - Important practice matches for a national squad
2 - Hopefully get a lrage enough crowd out to the game to offset expenses
If yuh say yuh bringin a Brazil for example....and yuh advertise Brazil wit Dinho & Kaka etc.....Brazil cyah show up witout dem fellas.
Remember how we did feel when we hear we playin Peru and man lookin forward to seein players like Jefferson Farfan only to realize a day before de game is a Peru U23 side comin down.
Now.....if we goin and play Peru again, yuh think a large crowd go come ut nex time?
Tink bout if we bring dis young team of "no names"...colleck some serious goal in we tail....could that hamper us getting practice matches against quality teams in the future?
To me, is a give and take.
Besides....ah tnk we might be too eager to "ress de ole men and dem". Who de youngsters go learn from? Ideally in my opinion, it should have a nice blend of de experienced and inexperienced so dat de younger one's comin een could learn de ropes without havin to try and figure out everyting fuh deyself.
