i like this very much all local based players,first these players play a all star team from their own country,and then they head to ST.ketts,i just hope ST. ketts use their senior team not local based because i want to see what our local boyz can do against ST.ketts senior team because i know this is a very good and talened local based squad of 33 players,once again these players can show how good and talened they are and what they can do,guy it is about rebulid and i say why not start right here right now,other team or doing it already by bring their b/c team to the gold cup on so fort,remember the senior team players are not getting any younger and they day or number
