..will do for someone's club career,for the purpose of argument,let us assume as true, Nosworthy is of the youthful age of 20.Based on what he did in the qualifiers and the subsequent falling off of the team when he got injured,is it fair to assume that player would catch the attention of worthy clubs abroad?

lot of assumption there. How many 20 year olds are we picking???
What if he never shined, and had a bad game or two and fall in the "rux" category????- Don't let negative things break you, instead let it be your strength, your reason for growth. Life is for living and I won't spend my life feeling cheated and downtrodden.

Nah...maybe off of performance in a World Cup...Bibi comes to mind...

Bibi performance in the World Cup probably wasn,t his best,besides Boyd's and Tappa's were eye catching.Both went to a lower division whilst Bibi was inseted in the EPL.
The qualifiers mattered.Comment

You think Bolton watched the qualifiers? Doubt it...Comment

When he was younger and performing in the EPL we simply thought he was rux. He expressed desire from then to say he would only play for Jamaica and nobody else, yet we never called Nugsby at that time. That was about 5 years ago.

Age matters as much as quality... Bibi was ranked as one of the best young players at WC 98Originally posted by Rockman View Post

Bibi performed much better than Boyd and "Tappa" as far as TEAM went. ...and Tappa was miles ahead of Boyd on that TEAM score.Originally posted by Rockman View Post
As a coach seeking your selfish goals - job tenure and TEAM success - if you had to take one of those players which way would you go? The player who may give pretty performances or the one best able to satisfy your goals?
Compared to Boyd - Bibi was faster! *Passed more often=used TEAMmates move often & lost the ball fewer times. ...Bibi was better on *attack and defense.
Compared to Tappa - Bibi was faster! Passed much less often but handled the ball less but got rid of it to a TEAMmate way more often with less touches...loss the ball less often.
Transitioned from defense to attack and the reverse much faster and much better than both players.
Perhaps based on number of touches had ratio comparable to "Tappa" on "killer passes". ...certainly of the three - Is this fair to Boyd? - made the only "killer pass" that resulted in a goal at the World Cup finals - cross that resulted in our first goal i.e. goal against Croatia!!!
Bibi at that time was more valuable to a TEAM than the other 2 players."Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has."Comment

After watching him at the World Cup maybe...Comment

regardless of all that...Boyd could not strike in the EPL...and let's not even bother with Tappa...he would have been steamrolled in the EPL midfield

That was in response yo Brictop alluding to Bibi being discovered in the WC.
As good as Bibi was(he was even more intriguing in the qualifiers)he could not give a masterful control of the midfield as Tappa did.Boyd was sidelined based on discipline...,I believe Tappa has more goals but Boyd was an all out striker.
In any event,if WC was the moment,Boyd and Tappa both gave impressive accounts of themselves there....
The argument is at what point did the scouts become interested?Comment

Oh I wish Nandi had been in the EPL and with one of the top teams.
Was Scholes known for speed?Comment

Would have been interesting to see Nandi up front in the EPL...but we know he wouldn't last with his temperment...Comment
