If I building ah team from scratch... my first pick is the Makelele type... remember that was de whole crux of the last poll. The whole argument was that the Nakhid type is the rock the team build around... while the Latapy type is the garnish/flair/flash of the team.
Nakhid? Makelele type? Another blasted MYTH. Dat is a grave insult to Claude Makelele. Allyuh say how Latapy is a defensive liability (true) tryin to make it out like if Nakhid was dis defensive stopper.
I dare you to come up with an instance of where Nakhid tackle somebody other dan wit he mout. Nakhid was no tackler....he was an organizer and a very good one at that. The only comparison to Makelele you could possibly make is that the majority of both their passes were within 5 yards of themselves and either square or backwards.
As for de nex MYTH yuh spout that Nakhid better for the TEAM.....what a load a crock.
Every single f**kin TEAM Nakhid was on he get kick off. EVERY DAMN ONE! Is not once Warner had to run to he rescue. De same Warner Nakhid does cuss. De only threat Nakhid pose to any team while he was on de field was he MOUT. Off de field too.
But dis is not to diss David Nakhid. Because he was an excellent player, not just for T&T. One of our better players in our history. But dis talk bout how he beter dan Latapy and better for de team is jes assness. It come like sayin Deschamps (Nakhid) was better than Zidane (Latapy). In cricket some people want to make Chanderpaul dis great player and tryin to show how he better for de team dan Lara.
Jes like in dat "comparison" and allegation, is pure BULLSHIT.
T&T lucky we had both. Sad we have neither right now because we could have done with both or at least one. But get it straight. Footballer for Footballer, Nakhid cyah even shine Latapy boots. And dat is a FACT.
