Wow!! what a great opportunity for Lester and a big move by Fenwick.

So does this mean that after the "good" performance in the world cup that UK/European tams will be scouting T&T for talent?

Well they might as well have a look at InterCol/SSFL, cause it seems as though they want them young.

That is stale news man. There was a time it was practically Dwight Yorke vs Shaka Hislop in a Man u vs West ham game some years ago. Dwight was running the hammers ragged, and creating chance after chance and shaka was keeping the score respectable....

I not sure of the max. number of players we had simultaneously though.

Dont know if Yorke, Shaka, Stern were there together.

Kingk · « **Reply #13 on:** March 12, 2007, 09:20:34 AM »

you think we can get Gavin Hoyte to play for T&T

the more defenders the better well when things are back up & runing

This will be the biggest piece of transfer news to hit Trinidad since Dwight's move to Manutd.

I hope it comes thru!

But i want to understand that how the two players with Trini roots make Lester's move more comfortable? It's not like if they know anything about Trinidad anyway!

..............more reason to not believe the story!

ah love it!!

well they may relate to him better , make him feel more at home at the club he can integrate better is what they talking about..

I always thought, for a country that doesn't have the standard of training as the European clubs have to some really talented youths. I see it all the time in the way they perform at the US colleges. If only they can be continued development. I hope Arsenal sign this youth. He may not get a run in the first team and may start with the youth team, such like Yorke and Aston Villa. I love the way Arsenal boss have them fellas playing and I hope this youth gets that type of exposure. Good luck to the youth.

Word is that Arsenal thought they were scouting a French youngster becuz of his name.

krsrd · « **Reply #25 on:** March 12, 2007, 12:25:56 PM »

Only problem you need to look out for is that Arsenal like to sign young players that show some promise and quite a few don't get a game or they play very few games before being let go. The lads better off going to a team where he's got a real chance of playing regularly.

and anyway, If he's that good I'm sure we'd have him

I must have read this wrong .... where does it say that Arsenal wants this player ? ... A quote from Fenwick ...."Cardiff want Lester and we told Liam Brady at Arsenal they could have him for a few days"
Does this tally with the opening paragraph ? Is there possibly a more substantial quote to support the claim then ...you know one by Arsenal for example ?
Solely from the above forumites have already signed the boy up ...this is not counting chickens ..this is counting eggs !

Filho · « **Reply #27 on:** March 12, 2007, 12:53:19 PM »

We have to wait and see what happens. he hasn't signed anything yet, but he looks to be doing well at his trials

People are excited about Arsenal and I could understand why. It is a massive EPL and European team.

But Cardiff is a great option too. They are well in the hunt for a EPL qualification this year and sound like a competitive Championship team where Peltier may see more time right away and develop faster.

Let's wait and see...good luck to the youth.

This is something tuh put ah lil smile on yuh face, not a big one doh, cuz de deal isn't closed yet. Despite whether they may think he was French, German, African etc, ah sure when dey see de breddah in practice, dey will say damn dem T&T players are fuh real. All de best Peltier, I'm sure all de T&T supporters their prayers are wid you. Give thanks. HIGHLY BLESSED.

NOWHERE.
There also isn't a shred of evidence that he is doing well or they remotely interested.

Not here at least. Best of luck to him but I hope this not setting it up to make it look like a big rejection.
