Also I do not like Theobold.
I find he not good enough and I am mystified as to how he play every game in the WC and get more minutes than Latapy.
Plain talk bad manners he has a doubles paper finish...he comes second in the tackle, he wins no headers in the middle and he not fast.
He replaceable.
I eh reading beyond this post ..... touches I agree on all counts. theobald
I also believe that we better get our act together pretty soon as we really will have to look at some retirees to help us qualify. Who have we seen develop since last WC ?
We lack experience and now have to depend on Carlos, ist premiership season, and kenwyn, two newcomers to ist division football. Last WC we had Yorke and latapy as well as shaka and Andrews to provide some stability. This time around we are searching but not finding new talent to replace these players.
This time around a forth place finish sees us meeting the 5th place finisher from South America. That team, whichever it is, could probably win the Concacaf zone outright so we would not want to end up with that possibility. That leaves us to finish ahead of one of mexico, USA or Costa Rica....something we have not been able to do even when we did qualify for the WC and ward off the threat of jamaica who we have not beaten in a long time.
It is a tall order we face and it brings me back to the point TI has always made ...what is the role of Wim in football in T&T and should it have included some input in player development. Wim already wasted our national league, but I could do that just as well as anyone else on this forum, but what has he done to make his intake of a higher standard.
We, of course, are not ready to answer these questions ..until it is too late ! ..the more things change the more they remain the same !
