Thread for the T&T vs Guadeloupe game

[saga pinto]

Check this,ah no ah loss is ah loss and a draw is ah draw and ah win is ah win,but why we always have to be fighting to win or draw ah game,is like we always in the drama zone,I would've prefered a team that dominated the region a team other countries in our region would fear,oh shit meh wife just wake meh up,she say ah talking in meh sleep...............

So yall ready to accept a loss against Guadeloupe??

 We got 5 from Guad last year with our full squad......remember?..... Now follow me here...........we have a young, inexperienced squad, most playing away from home for the first time and scoring two against guad. Its either 1) these players are vastly superior to the WC players under Bertille or 2) the coach is vastly superior........
which one do you think it is.....1 or 2 ...multiple choice here...hint....it aint #1.

Ah find allyuh letting sub1 off easy on this one.  One minute he calling out SM post as the dumbest of the year next thing yuh know he posting about Guatemala on a Guadeloupe thread like he don't know the difference   

[Big Magician]

well arrow...thats why he is a "sub"

thanks toussaint....haiti i'm sorry

[banton]

we are a world cup side 

[Brownsugar]

Yuh know all yuh worrying mih on dis forum....

we are a world cup side

NOT DIS BUNCH......

Let's look at the positives

We eh loose

First game overseas with Wim we eh loose

We came back from 2 goals down.

yeah keep in mind that Guadeloupe is VERY tough to score on at home. they crushed Martinique 4-0 during their Digicel Caribbean Cup first round group match

Martinique shit team Gaudeloupe shit team.

Also, any body who posting here actually saw Guadeloupe play in the Digicel Cup?.....they were one of the better sides in de tournament....

Also, I realise dat folks eh waking up and smelling de coffee.....just as countries around de world playing a much better brand of football so much so that there aren't many "walk over" teams at the WC (think Ghana, Senegal, Cameroons).......Well, the same has been happening in the Caribbean, while we (Jackula & de TTFF) have been playing de arse wid we football, our Caribbean brothers and sisters have been doing their home work, toiling upwards through de night......

Again, wake up folks (Jackula & de TTFF in specific) without we overseas players, we aint no powerhouse.....

Now ah eh see de game with mih own 2 eyes.....but I am happy with de result......
Also, for the "fire Wim Campaigners"......yuh ever went to work (or school) without the right tools (or none at all) and tried to get some work done....it kinda difficult aint it??

i was just singing a song...thanks again toussaint

We trinis like to make too much excuse the fact is we suppose to beat them because even if its a young team its a team playing professional football in Trinidad something that Guadeloupe players would not have and allyuh comming with some stupidness how them beat we 5 nil already we suppose to be moving forward not be contented with a poor performance.

Palos based on what I read in the media...Guadlope scored two early goals in the game..{that could have been easily avoided}.....Now I'm assuming you are a passionate T&t football fan...so with that being said...Are you content with this team performance in Guadelope?

See i think your problem problemjaydees, is your not looking at the big picture. First of all, in football a team can put out a good performance and outperform the other team, while still losing, or tying in this case.

Second, you might say our defence in this case, was the least experienced and weakest, out of the other positions.

Finally, and i think this was the point i was trying to drive home in the first place. Trini players have a problem with complacency. To fight back from two goals down the way they did, shows we are well moving away from that problem. In this sense, we did extremely well. Not to mention, as has been before by many other posters, this team is inexperienced, individually in some cases, and as a whole gel unit.

Bless

Sound like the team from the media report actually had the better of the exchanges during the match.  I prefer to draw my own conclusions whenever possible though as depending on the media involved, there could be a degree of bias involved in the reporting.

To answer your question, all things considered, I'm quite satisfied with the RESULT.

          I'm a Haitian fan and i think Haiti, T&T, Jamaica, and Cuba all have the resources to do well internationally. The difference with the soca warriors is their team is completely BRAND NEW. It doesn't matter so much that their young, it's just that if the squad which represented T&T at the world cup were still playing internationally then most of the current squad wouldn't even have gotten a shot. And most fans aren't helping the situation either.

           For this squad to become more successful they need to find their own identity and get away from the ridicule they receive because they can't live up to their predecessors. The good news about saturday was that the soca warriors were playing away from home and they need to do alot more of that. Away games always help and i'm not saying that cuz i'm Haitian and most of all our games are away but it's the truth. Jamaica for example hasn't won an away game since October of 2005.

I agree with you but i doh think d present crop of players will be in gold cup only a few, i think Wim still searchin for who can play at d higher level hopefully all our players would be available for d tornament.

Good Mornin Ball Jumbies,

The team look very young in the pix. How many of them can be on the U-23 for Olimpic qualifying which may start soon. By the way, how many of you Jumbies on this forum  believe  football Olimpic very is very important. At least get the team in frame of mind for the WC.
