Well, I must say this performance, even against limited opposition was excellent.
The absent midfield was suddenly present. The introduction of Sean De Silva was certainly a game changer.
Clarema United players and supporters were all asking about eh "white boy," who was "wicked on the left foot or the right foot!"
Again, Jamal Gay was difficult to handle as was Cato with his speed. Our defense was much, much better today, we held shape and played like a team on a mission.
The comments from the Clarema United players and supporters were encouraging as was the play of the T&T U 23's.
I know that there is some criticism of Coach Eve's decision to play fringe players, but if he is to be faulted is for bringing too many payers to have look at...he cannot bring them and then not give them a chance to play!!!
That said it seems pretty obvious that there will be few changes to the team we have all seen already!
Even though we lost to Canada with some sloppy play, there were glimpses of what this team could accomplish.
Canada is a decent team, but so is T&T...I can honestly say, after watching Canada play this evening that they are not better than we are.
We have a big team, physically imposing, twin towers in the center back, nippy forwards and with Molino and Sean De Silva in mid field to cause headaches.
Cato has some deft touches and real speed, Kevan George is looking decent, I am impressed with Cyrus and his penchant for forays up field.
This performance was very polished and we looked a National Team!!! Again I concede this was not world class opposition, but we did the job today and we did it with pure aggression.
