Empty di bench Leggo gordon, gray , ottey and miller

Absolutely nothing to lose now. Time to get this over with and look forward to the Gold Cup.

First goal needs to be to just keep the result respectable. Obviously the aim is to win the game, but in a worst case scenario the GD should be no worse than -2. Also, it'd be nice to leave this tournament having scored at least one goal. That should be a focus.

We've seen enough of Kerr and I suspect some of the starters could use a rest. Then again, I doubt they'd want to be pulled away from what might be a once in a lifetime chance to go up against the world's best player on what some contend is the world's best team. It'll be interesting to see what Winnie does here.

I personally think that we need to revert to the lineup that found success against Uruguay as it clearly offers us our best chance of earning any points. I would make one change at GK (Miller in for Kerr) and just go with that original starting 11 otherwise. Ottey, Laing, and Brown should get a run in the second half.

After getting everyone some exposure and hopefully keeping the contest competitive, we can look forward to the Gold Cup.

Why all the negative vibes.WE can beat Argentina and get three points. IF we play Argentina like how we end the paraguay match , we can beat them. The problem is we are not playing direct. Too many backward passes and lateral passes. The only way Jamaica is going to have success at the highest level is to be direct. Every chance you get. That does not mean long aimless ball to the opponents, but strategic play like what was going on in the first half, the over lapping runs with Mccleary. Even crossed a few good balls.

99% of all goals are scored when the ball is in the box.The ball have to be int the box most time to get a penalty, to head it in. So objective number one is to get into the box as long as you players in there. Play the probabilities.

The other issue is choose the simple play rather the glory shot from a bad angle(eg Dawkins ridiculous shot instead of passing to barnes) PLAY TEAM ONLY WAY AT THIS LEVEL. Mccleary long distance bomb is tolerable due to space they gave him.

AWARENESS IS HELL OF A THING. THE FACT OF THE MATTER WE ARE SUPERIOR TO EVERY TEAM IN THIS COMPETIION. WE ARE PHYSICAL SUPERIOR TO ALL OF THEM .FASTER THAN THEM. SMARTER THAN THEM. THE PROBLEM IS WE DON'T KNOW THAT. INSTEAD OF PASSING THE BALL TO THE KEEPER AND HIM KICKING BACK TO THE OPPONENT INSTEAD PLAYING THE BALL ON THE GROUND THE WHOLE WAY INTO 18 YARD BOX.

NONE OF THESE TEAM OUTPLAYED US. PARAGUAY CAME BACK ON THE MIGHTY ARGENTINA, WE CAN BEAT THEM ASS.WE WILL BEAT ARGENTINA AND GET ALL THREE POINTS.

Think its time to give Grant a run also. We are getting nothing from the wings. Grant and Laing should start.

Schäfer : We have to play very quickly

This would be my team for Argentina

Grant Mattocks

Laing Gray



Austin McAnuff



Lawrence hector Morgan Mariappa

My side for Argentina would be


*****************Mattocks*********** Barnes*******************

**Laing*****************Joel Grant*****************McCleary***


***********************Austin*********************************

**********************Marriappa*******************************

***********************Thompson*******************************

Rest Wes Morgan and McaNuff for gold cup, also introduce Ottey and Dino Williams as well as Romeo parks for this game, can even try JT for Austin see how it looks

1. Jevaughn Watson needs to re-calibrate his brain for this tournament.......

2. Winni Schaefer needs to go back to the strategy versus Uruguay.

3. The players need to close down spaces faster.

We could run McLeary as I expect Humphries to come in for the Gold Cup for him.

Winni Schaefer - YUH HEAD TUFF LIKE YUH JAMAICAN PEOPLE DEM!!!!!

** You lost the flank play versus Paraguay!!

1. Use the same strategy as you employed at the end of the Uruguay game.
2. Give Hughan Gray a run in the second half to rest McClearley.
3. At some point you need to rest Wes Morgan and introduce Gordon infront of Hector.

The way how loosie a move right now, di argentina match could be embarassing. Him betta hope messi and company tek it easy pan wi. Nuff changes need to be made. Starting with the goal keeper, as well as bring in gray, and play rudi for only the first half, also start laing on the wing, and ottey and deshorn at forward.

Saddle head dumb ass keeper should be banned!

I think Kerr has done very well apart from that monumental blunder. I hope he can continue this.

Monumental blunder cost us two losses

You guys had 2 "friendlies" already in preparation for the GC. That should be enough. No need fi experiment anymore...why not put your best lineup out there and go get Argentina's scalp?

It feels like everyone here is backing down from the challenge and making excuses about lets prepare for GC...What better preparation for GC than Argentina's scalp? Come on, where is the euphoria from the first game?

Setting low expectations is their way of coping with any disappointment that may come.

He does well until it's a must win situation then he makes that one silly mistake. Wasn't he the one that made a routine safe slip through his fingers during qualifying? please correct me if I'm wrong.

I'm sorry but I don't see the guts. r the technical ability in them to do it like Liverpool they are chokers once again they will fall short ...from I hear the coach talking bout him can beat this an beat that I thought they werent gonna achieve shit

reminded me of every time we about to play st Vincent and they coach and players talk bout they come for 3 point

Empty barrel makes DI most noise

Stop DI long ball shit get rid of hector his height is a none factor and him have too much god moment nigga need to stick to his role play mariappa with wes buss hughan at right back and parks at rm
As McCleary looks use less against quality oppostion too much turnovers

Mattocks
Grant

Liang parks

Jobi Austin

Lawrence wes mapps hughan

The law of averages say Mattocks haffi to start.

Unfortunately!
