That last goal is special!

[Karl]

Interesting site!
Thanks, boss

The Johnson argument?
Poor Luton Shelton has never played at HEX level or higher at the World Cup.

Fuller?
Lowe?
Ryan Johnson?
Deon Burton?

Matches played: Goals scored?
...any of these were/are TOP CLASS players?

...in any case, order based on goalscoring results?

[Karl]

btw - Players have to get chances to score!
How many chances in that match v Mexico did our REGGAE BOYZ have?

Specificic to Johnson: How many chances did he get?

[Muadib]

The consensus is that the Reggaeboyz had the BEST chances of the game.

That is why you need players that are gifted in the 18 yard box.. yuh want mi to send yuh di Mattocks links again ?

Yuh tink dem man deh grow pon tree ??

[OJ]

madib.. on Ryan one v one with the GK he won the ball deep off pure hustle... and then ran 40 metres 1.V1 after doing that all night. You are looking at it that he missed... but you dont understand that mattocks,, fuller, shelton dont come back and win that ball and create that chance.. you are only looking at the final action not all the other work to get the ball....

[Muadib]

Do you believe an MLS team would put Ryan Johnson over Darren Mattocks as the single striker in a 4-5-1 formation... Yes or No ?

The answer to that question will tell me everything I need to know regarding your thought process on this matter..

[OJ]

does darren start every game for vancouver? i saw TFC play vancouver and Ryan outplayed him if that what you are asking.. but that is not the real question.. cant they both be good players? when did DM have a good showing over 90 mins for the natl team.. Wait man he will get his chance..

Players have to get chances to score?. No Karl. Good forwards create scoring chances.

Mattocks is special. Did you see how high he jumped above the airborne goalkeeper to head the ball. I was impressed with that play when he did it some months ago. If you notice, he did not make a running start and then leap. He just seem to shoot up in the air and out jumped the GK who ran and then leaped for the ball.

Tappa need to find a way to include him in any squad he had as long as the player is not injured.

Anyone ever notice that Ryan Johnson seems as if he runs flat footed?

I think for the Mexico match, I am with Tappa for starting Johnson. Johnson's sie was expected to trouble the Mexicans and as you know, he gives his all when he is on the field. Mattocks need to start taking any opportunity he gets with both hands.

Players have to get chances to score! ...matters not who makes the chances - they have to get chances!

Ryan Johnson made his chance and then missed! ('memba dat!) ...also remember Ryan Johnson gave (assisted) on gilt-edged chance to another player (Theo Robinson?) in this same v Mexico match!!! ('Memba dat tuh!)

Karl, back to Ricketts. He made some very good saves in the match. At times making himself BIG to stop the Mexicans. I believe he is worthy of MOM award.

That said, his ball distribution needs to improve if we are going to make any headway in this competition. Let me put it this way, our position would be further enhanced if we had a GK who knows how to distribute the ball intelligently out of the back. Top class goalkeepers do not make the same big kicks over and over with no variation in how they start play or get the ball to our players. You and I have had this discussion many times in the past. I think Ricketts is a better shot stopper than Miller, but Miller show more composure and better use of his head (as in thinking) in other aspects of the game.
