Leon notable omission from Latapy 20.

[Controversial]

ah have to agree with palos, experience with youth, but some new players need to be added to that current national team. the less caps these youths get is the less exposure and chances they will have abroad which is not good for our football progression

[behind-de-bridge]

What happen to the players that played at the under 17 and under 20 WCs a few years ago? Not one make it to the senior level?

[Red Mango]

New blood without experience to guide them along will only learn to lose together.

I believe you need a blend of youth and experience in ANY national team.

People bawl how Germany was young & great in this WC and they were, but without men like Lahm, Mertersacker, Friedrich, Klose, Scweinsteiger, Podolski etc...who are ALL experienced international players, where would they have been?

T&T doesn't have a limitless talent supply.  We are not in a position to discard players like a Trent Noel who still have plenty to offer the national team.  The man was the PFL MVP 2 seasons ago.  Yuh cyah discard him jes so.

Besides....at least he seem to have he papers in order and doh have a ban on he enterin a particular country.

I'm not disagreeing with you... we are saying the same thing... All I am suggesting is that some players get a chance too, Trent immediately comes to mind...

same thing we was saying about yorke 4 years back after the WC and he played many seasons in the EPL  ... there is  birchall hyland  and leon that play  in noel's position and they are younger . Plus  birchall and hyland play at a higher level .... he is 34 and only played in the proleague time to move on  ... push/groom new blood

[Dumplingdinho]

anything less than a 3 nil victory is considered a failure for me. i demand quality, no more 1 nil and 2-1 win over small teams. Mexico and d US could pull up a small team and give Antigua/Barbuda 10 GOALS why cant we.

I don't think we need such a victory, remember we playing an away match and we are a Caribbean nation. We need to represent the colors with dignity. A nice sound 2-0 or even a well fought 1-0 would do and not dishonor the home crowd, always respect your opposition no matter how small you think they are, on the field it's eleven versus eleven.  Even if there is a football god is rarely  credits the unworthy.

so what u saying...for away games you must not win by too much?...so since it is a home game for us anitgua approach is not to lose by too much from their perspective while ours will be to win by plenty since we at home.

Neither Birchall nor Leon are better players at the moment than Trent Noel.

Besides, Birchall has club commitments with LA Galaxy.  Hyland trying to land himself a deal abroad.  Leon injured.  So how can Latapy pick any of the 3 for this game?

leh me fix that for u

Never supported Latapy as coach for T&T and never will, he picking d same players all d time. Cyrus played very well against Chile and lost his spot to dat shithound Aklie Edwards. We need a YOUNG team with a FEW experienced heads. I hope we dont qualify for the gold cup just so we can get rid of latapy. Peter Granville could pick a better national team than latas. Terry Fenwick is an ideal coach for us

you joking right ? I eh no latapy as coach fan but ..You now Peter Granville record ?

[jai john]

I eh know bout de entire team but I am betting that Keron Cummings makes de left side of midfeld his own ! man have to look elsewhere if dey want to play ...and I am including Keon Daniel in that losing battle against this yute.

The focus has to be on the right mix... Youth and experience yes, but QUALITY must compliment the system...

I am very surprised that we haven't gone to having "2 squads" of a bit of both, or have them all training together as a unit from time to time... something must give. Remember yeah, in time there will be a generation born, that will know nothing of the '89 squad, or the '06 unit...

We must use these examples, and progress from there...

keston williams i thought was a better left back than edwards by far, but once again that is just my opinion

i think some fellahs 4get that noel did very well as a holding mid previously and has the experience to hold that role, bc i believe they will push up theobald.

                noel

tinto          bleeder          guerra      dont know whos playing left winger   

[Jefferz]

There is that name again - Densill Theobald .................. noooooooooo........

I heard Leon is in the UK on trials.

Old man Trent still making we national team, in 2014 he should be about 40, like we looking for the next Roger Miller.

apparently they're ah dime ah dozen.

What happen to the players that played at the under 17 and under 20 WCs a few years ago? Not one make it to the senior level?
