Bertuzzi44 Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 (edited) While it is disappointing not to see guys like Lareya and Eustaquio play this week for their clubs, this is part of the challenge of moving up a level and fighting for a spot. We know their quality, and I am confident they will force themselves into the team. I think in the long run it helps these guys. Larin did it at Besiktas when he moved from Orlando. Had to go out on loan even, but eventually won his spot and look at him now. Same with Davies at Bayern. He played with the reserves for a bit but earned his opportunity with the first team and the rest is history. Fighting for playing time at bigger clubs will be good for these guys!

The coach hasn't even seen you train more than a few sessions. Phonzie only really started playing at Bayern thanks to injuries.

Injuries helped give him an opportunity, but he still had to take that opportunity. If he was really bad Bayern wouldn't have kept playing him. Especially at 18/19 years old. Who knows what will give you an opportunity: injuries, congested schedule, someone else falling out of form, or someone showing well in training. But you still need to take those opportunities.

archer21 Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 It’s a bit annoying to see Laryea not getting a chance yet but it’s early days. I’m glad we have qualification all but locked up though. It would be a bit more worrying to see Laryea/Eustaquio not really getting playing time if we needed a big window in March. Same goes for Davies with his recovery timeline. The important thing now is to have everyone playing and in form come November now, assuming we still qualify.

Exactly 💯 and I definitely wanna see Richie playing meaningful games in the English Championship. But it is just a shame his club of Nottingham Forest is not in the running to be promoted from the Championship into the Premier League. Checking the standings and Forest they are 7th in the English Championship right now. king1010, Strait Red, longlugan and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are definitely still in the race, but I think Forest's promotion chances are unlikely. Of course, anything can happen if they make the playoffs, but they are not in a play off spot at the moment, so they have to be considered as outsiders for promotion. They are sniffing at a playoff spot though. Even just qualifying for the playoffs would be excellent experience for Laryea if he can play in those playoff games.

There's talk an EPL team may swoop in for him, but he's not their property anyway as far as I can tell, so either way he's likely to move on regardless. off topic, but Jamaica FA is after this kid Spence. He's looked really good from what I've seen with Forest. It would be a huge win for them if he commits. Might we see him at BMO in March? https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/17644802/djed-spence-wanted-jamaica-england/ Obinna 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kadenge Posted February 14, 2022 Share Posted February 14, 2022 Spence is 21 and will play in the EPL next season. If some think Jebbo is going to hold out for an England cap there is no way Spence is going to commit to Jamaica right now.

For sure, but aside from that consider the point of the cycle we are in. Jamaica are out and have nothing to play for. What's the carrot for Spence or others for that matter? Nations league this summer? I doubt that's a big enough pull for such a player. If anything, we are now in the point of the cycle where Jamaican-English players start turning down calls to re-focus on club ball. This has always been the paradox with Jamaican football: Improve the team in the short term by bringing in more talented English players with questionable commitment levels, which ultimately harms the team in the long term?

I don't think it's an issue of dragging their feet - these players just don't want to play for them and certainly not now that they're eliminated. Spence can, and will, play for England U21s. The JFF may now actually have a shot at Mason Greenwood though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently Anthony Grant had wanted to play for Jamaica for years. Simon has mentioned as well many guys should have been integrated in 2019 but there were was still confusion over how to proceed with the squad building. Just seems like a total shitshow at the federation level. I don't blame players at for not wanting to be a part of that. Also the fact they seem to be ignoring dual nats playing in North America is pretty boneheaded. Any of the MLS guys would be improvements over the USL ones.

Joe MacCarthy Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 I am wondering if any consideration will be taken into leaving Stac and Richie to solidify their situation with their clubs, seeing as we are so close to qualification. I don't think so but it could get interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kadenge Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 perhaps it's just me but I thought Laryea's performances in the last window were below his normal high standards. Understandable as he was out of season and had just made the move to NF. TOCanada115, Joe MacCarthy, NVsoccer and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe MacCarthy Posted February 22, 2022 Share Posted February 22, 2022 Also the point has to be raised, if he doesn't play there, he won't play here which is generally Herdman 101 (with likely exceptions). Agree with the above post, he seemed invisible last window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
