Where does he play ?

[Assasin]

the good thing about Jamaica is we have a lot of young forwards in progressive leagues like never before. At least 4 in the MLS, and Shelton in Norway, Orgill in Canada. If we could get at least 3 or 4 more in a good program or an academy then we could have very good competition for places on the national team in the not so distant future.

[Tilla]

Sass would say Obrain White!

Let us see how well he does in MLS before we call him. Hopefully he can impress enough to get a call from Barnes.

[Lionpaw]

Wha happen to all the players in the silver medal winning Pan Am games. None a dem nuh good enough fi get a run inna de national side, instead of calling all these UB40s.
We know bout Daley and Cousins, but what bout dis other yute who a Brazilian side was interested in?.
How are these yutes progressing and what are the JFF plans to transitioned these yutes into the national setup?

You're talking about James Thomas but last I heard is that he quit football to further his studies in medicine(in Cuba). Big loss really. Let's hope that after he finishes his academic stint in Cuba, he decides to return to football.

[Assasin]

the man them get a few games but the Jamaican crowd say them nuh ready. Any coach who include too many a them youngster inna him squad a commit suicide and Barnes want him English job.

[Assasin]

Why you think I disagree?

"The solution is to look at what we have in the Under 21 age group and try to get them as much international or even regional experience and forget the likes of Tuffy Anderson, Roland Dean etc..."

I have alway advocate the developement of youths, I think we should be looking to Dever Orgill, Alan Ottey, Shamar Shelton and the rest of the under 20 side now as we have 3 years for the next qualifiers.

i still think Luton can come good just like Carton Cole who was fast but was lacking that cutting edge until he became 24.

Next time you ask before you go accusing me sa

[Twan]

what about Adlam from Sporting Central ? the U20 forward, how is he looking ?

[Mosiah]

Morissey? I think the man asked a serious question. Has Morrissey scored 10 goals in an NPL season to date?

[Mosiah]

Joel Grant looked very, very good! John Barnes never hear bout him?

[Mitty]

Yes him same one. I think at this stage he is a better striker of the ball than Fuller.

Does not favor one feet over the other, gets into position quickly, has a strikers' instinct, and his very aware of where both goal posts are at all times.
Hopefully we will get to see more of him in the U20 playoffs.
After we qualify fi Egypt, Barnes should draft in inna di Gold Cup side.

[Assasin]

Orgill.

We have a host of youth who could do with 2 years of good training in an academy like structure that may do well.

[Sickko]

Dever Orgill

[Mitty]

What about the current U20 striker (he was the u17 captain and is now playing A league ball in Canada). He looks the part, albeit I only saw him in the historic win Ja had against the USA u17. Lawks mi mussi a get old cause mi cyaa member him name.
He scored the goal against Haiti and was red carded for the rest of the tournament.

[Dunny]

Nah, I tend not to agree with this and you can add Keamar Daley to that list as well and let then be what they are good DPL strikers and not more.

But a caveat for Daley in that he is young but has made some interesting decisions which are more out of loyalty that has kept him back...he should have been at a better club a long time ago as he had the requisite skills.

This list have been tried and rejected by more than one coach from different backgrounds and it is time we stop talking about them as it is obvious they cannot make the next step.

I am sure Assassin and others here will not agree as they think that coaches should try as often as it takes to see which players can make the next step but I ask at what price?

At ever thing in life especially sports we will have people who will peak at different levels; look back at our own high schools and see how many of the so called stars in third form who never improved enough afterwards.

The solution is to look at what we have in the Under 21 age group and try to get them as much international or even regional experience and forget the likes of Tuffy Anderson, Roland Dean etc...

So in your view Sickko,we haven't got any one in the DPL to step up into the Gold Cup squad.
