Anybody find it strange how the starting 11 for each game in the Carib Cup had little continuity to it. Especially the changes to the last game against Cuba.
Ok I undstand a little the loss to FG, complacency, overconfidence, lack of luck etc.
Then the team seemed to tighten up somewhat in the game versus Martinque, with what ended up being a draw with a clean sheet on the defense, Gk and mids, those most responsible on that side of the ledger, so for the final game my thought would have been keep the main d team together so Powell, Phinn, shavar and let Bibi start but the team was radically changed throughout, almost not building off what good had come out of the Martinique game and just throwing the rest of the guys in the bullpen, killing any continuity from the good of the Martinque game.
Maybe is just me but between the selection of players for starters and subs as well as what seems to be little connection between the management/coach and the team, we just saw uninspired play, little chemistry and a coach who continually talked about lack of focus and motivation which would be his job.
Seems a little to me that the lads were left adrift somewhat, at the same time that does not release them of their responsibility to play hard with each opportunity and except for a few it seems that did not happen.
Seems like a very unusual sequence of events.
