Milutinovic's selection method a good one

DONOVAN DAVIS, Nicora Plummer, Dwayne Williams. There's something about these names, new faces in the national football team chosen for this Hong Kong series by technical director Velibor 'Bora' Milutinovic.

I am especially happy for Allien Whittaker, who, despite being selected in the 2001 Under-20 World Cup All-Star XI, has always been ignored by the national senior coaches.

Milutinovic, also new on the job, has main responsibilities for qualifying the Reggae Boyz to the next World Cup in South Africa.

Qualifiers won't begin until next year and he has been doing a fair bit of scouting at Premier League and other football matches at different locations across the country, doing a fair bit of videotaping as well, including the match at the National Stadium between the Boyz and Peru.

Matches were also organised to aid Milutinovic's assessment/recruitment drive.

Hence, the names Davis, from Portland team St. George's, Plummer, from east rural St. Andrew team Bull Bay, and Williams, who would have got easier recognition because he plays for Wray and Nephew National Premier League team Reno.

This article would have been appreciated BEFORE we played Hong Kong. Let the wagonism begin.
