Still cant beleieve a national player (Scotland) will make those type of remarks..and its even worse that he has done it publicly...I can understand his frustration but you have to mintain a level of professionalism..you are not just representing yourself and the team but also 1.3 million people...what type of example is this for the youths who look up to you as a role model?..anyway I done with this thread yes..moving onward to the next T&T WC qualifier battle thread..

breds is years now he scoring and is years now we benching him

he from malick. yuh lucky he aint slap pacho last night

Nah...Onyewu and Bradley Stood in an offside position but as Beasley approach the ball they stepped up and the defenders dropped, Onyewu boxed out Glenn I think and Bradley went on to the score the goal after being played onside. It was really bad marking getting trapped in behind. Novices. They need to square up to the attackers making sure their body position is facing up field and away from their goal so they can attack the ball. The attacker will have to come at them.  

I just watched the game and was specifically watching the positioning... at the time the ball was struck they were standing in an offside position.  From what I saw.

Bakes...as you tape the game, watch 2 things. 1st goal..Ching was offside the whole time. Not Onyewu and Bradley. Ching never got onside and he was involved in the play. Then..on the 2nd goal. Watch when Onyewu wins the ball it is a blatant hand ball. He completely misstimes it and wins the ball with his hand. They even show a replay and Harkes with he smart man self eh say nutten while he comments on it. That said...we were awful and shoulda colleck about 6 easy, so dem two goals eh hurting me...but they should not have been allowed to stand.

I would be fawking vex meh rass 2..... Imagine you leave your family in Wales and have to travel to trinidad den to the US 2 sit on the flecking bench......

He make the statements before the flecking game.... so de man know something up with that Columbian Hunt....

Imagine it is important for we to score goals.... you is the leading scorer in the English First Division and you on the bench... you already buss de net in the Championship and you on de bench..... I would be fawking vex 2.... especially when I on de bench and men like Telesford gettin sweat for a full 90.... and we need goals especially when it comes to goal agg.....

Professionalism.... all yuh forgettin that Scotland had scotts come to Germany 2 see him, had a song... went through a tussle with the Swans fan and still win dem all over.... de man have professionalism. He leh he feet do the tawkin....

But fawking injustice is fawking injustice and having a man like him on de bench is a fawking injustice....

NO PLAN...NO BRAND...AND WE NOT GOING DURBAN!!

Fire Pacho Mudderass now!

[JDB]

One good thing: the USA not going to go 6-0-0 in this rounds. It is statiscally improbable and they never have before.

Therefore, the most likely place for them to lose points is away from home and they only have one more away game.

So....we still have hope once we doh lose in Guatemala.

That is the craziest reasoning I ever see, the definition of clutching at straws.

We getting something from the US game not because of the merits of the team, but because of the history of US results, and the fact that they are more likely to drop points away than at home?

I read yuh right?

What stopping them from winning all 6 games, when based on the evidence, thay are miles ahead of the other 3 teams in the group?

[7 blessings]

Allyuh really blaming Pacho for de too too dem men dem playin out dey??/ Allyuh does real let dem men off the hook...dem fellas have to take the stick for the chupidness dem playin boi...ah coach not suppose to have to teach big man fundamental football knowledge..like mark and tackle and run. ah coach cyah give ah man heart and fight to come out and win ah game...is dem men to blame for de tatta dem playin.....DEM MEN ON D FIELD to blame...everybody cussin de coach ...nobody eh cussin d players...steupsss. Is dem playin d crap.

To be sure Pacho has to shoulder some responsibility... but the deficiency is more than just in strategy, shape or selection.  Totally agree that these men don't even look like dey grow up kicking ball.  No touch, no composure... no confidence.

NOTHING!

I just vex because I tape dis shit and only now watching it...

LOL boi u still have dat tape??? Allyuh reallike punishment yes. I strain my eyes to watch dah 90 once...cyah do that again. I rather watch welding. Dat tape eh even good enuff to pelt d neighbour pothound with again. 

But yeah Pacho have to shoulder some ah the blame....you cyah tell me that you playing ah team dat does get 90% ah dem goal from set piece, and on knowing that you go proceed to leave out not only we most experienced defender; but we TALLEST one tuh boot...nobody on d team better dan lawrence in the air...yet Pacho leave him out..i is not ah coach and could see that wid my lil bit ah football sense...demmen suppose to be verse in the game.

I just saying that he cyah take all...cause dem men do some real too too dat no coach coulda take blame for. But Pacho lil mad to leave Lawrence out against ah tatta US team dat ONLY scores goals from corners and free kicks. Geez ...lemme go and do some work yes cause i getting frustrated again.

Good goal, watch we #3. You cannot see him when the ball is initially struck because he is sandwiched between Bradley and Ching. He was even with them so he kept them on. It was great timinig by the USA and shocking marking by the defense.

Ah know de handball yuh talking about... was on the right side (from the US perspective) and he attempted to chest/shoulder the ball down but it came off his left bicep instead.  I didn't view it as a deliberate handball at the time, but it was an obvious one, not sure why it wasn't called.  In that case it should have been a free-kick to TnT... but I wouldn't really say that the second goal should not have been allowed because of that.  If it's the same play we're talking about I don't see it as being directly involved in the goal... we should have defended better...ball went right thru ah man legs.

On the first goal there were three players in the box (wasn't really watching face, so I'll have to check to see if was Ching) and one was borderline offside as the ball was struck... the other was a step offside.  Bradley was in the clear, he ran in onto the ball as it fell... but the offside player/s were involved in the play as you said... poor defending still.

7 blessings de thing on DVR so I eh really have tuh sit thru too much heartache, lol



elan... de #3 is Makan Hislop I believe, but nah he was just on the edge of the penalty area if memory serves correct, the US player was a good step or so past the line of defense.

U damn right i clutching at straws cause i was really searchin to find some positive thing before i mash up my tv because of all the ta-ta. And tha's all i coulda come up with...

Cause I really cah recall the US ever getting 18 points in a qualifying rounds...and their home record is impeccable. So what else it have for us to hope for? To win in Guatemala? Yeah right...

[Trini Madness]

wasn't #3 akile edwards?

What? no analysis of the two missed penalty calls? I not dissing T&T team, but I watched Jamaica, Haiti and T&T play yesterday and Joe Public look like they could beat all three.

[Dinner Mints]

Scotty change he facebook status earlier today: Jason is thinking that he have bing scoring goals over 4 years and still can't get in the t&t team..so i should be happy happy.

[spideybuff]

i agree...the states coulda have two penalty calls and the replays show the last goal wasn't offside, even though it look so at first. We deserve to lose 3-0 despite whatever bad calls we get.

[Marcos]

hislop shittin on heself..

Keon Daniel is the only man looking like he have ah slight clue right now...

i almost cant watch.

Yeah it really tough to watch...and a man in another thread say that our problem is that we's play pretty football  

Man we eh play pretty football in years. Sad but true
