Jamaica to Recruit Nine England-based Players

Isn't English a well known and respected language in Jamaica?

 

RAHEEM STERLING IN JAMAICA Playing with his friends...

 

Are we in English class now! who is grading!!!!

 

Its just better to put words together in an order and in the right tense so others can understand your points better. So since you have the choice..........

 

well months back I posted a list of 15-20+ English-Jamaicans from EPL and Championship.............and thought if they all played for Jamaica they would make the world cup.
it was in an "other teams" thread somewhere.

 

Found the post, just copying it here. There has been a lot of movement in the last year so dont know if everybody is still in the top 2 tier level.

Within an instant Jamaica could become top 2 or 3 team in CONCACAF. the list of English-Jamaicans who could play for them in 2014 is very impressive....

If everyone on that list opted to play for Jamaica they would definitely be even with the US and Mexico. Luckily for both those countries, the majority of that list will never play for Jamaica.

 

Sturridge has already played a full international for England... He is not eligible for Jamaica! What the list does show is if Jamaica got adequate soccer infrastructure they would be a VERY big problem for Mexico and the United States. Of course the united States and Mexico don't have that level of infrastructure and footballing system either.

 

To be honest though most of those players are not world class...Most are simply average players with good training. That team would not be better than even the Nigerian national team. A team which by the next world cup would have failed to make it out of the group stages for the last 16 years.

 

Right now any EPL or Championship quality player would make a difference. The EPL and Championship is better than the MLS and the Championship is at least on par with the Mexican league if not better. With those players and the experiences they have anything can happen! Lets be honest most of the teams they have to beat to qualify don't have the quality to get out of the group stages of the world cup and don't have players that are on demand at even the Championship level!

 

Yes some are but, add these guys to the players they already have and the team would automatically become the 3rd best on paper in the region and, very capable of beating the us and Mexico without it being a lucky win!

 

So much speculation from both sides of the divide.

Looking forward to seeing what happens on the field

 

This is Lionel Messi in Haiti

 

Watford created Barnes.

Ricketts? What about the guy who played in goal against us? At any rate, you guys need to look for a keeper on that shopping trip in England before anything else.

 

FIFA has agreed that The UN will sign a Security Council Resolution allowing him to do so along with 8 other players. This will shake up Concacaf as Haiti will be the new dominant power. Trust me guys

See what I did there...

 

Yup.

 

The Messi reference is even more idiotic than some of the most idiotic claims in this thread.

 

It is nice to see the Jamaican supporters confident and proud of their team but it is a bit delusional to think that this team is on par with the USA. Can they get there? Sure, but this hex is going to be very difficult for Jamaica to prove it. I doubt the Jamaicans can get a point on the road. Central America and Mexico have not been kind too Jamaica (and I doubt that changes any time soon).

 

so wait a minute not one jamaican born on the team except Ricketts and Raheem Sterlin that if we get him,and make it worst no jamaican born on the bench,shit this is not a jamaican team this is more like a english team

 

Rumors are Thiago Messi will represent the Haiti U-17 squad for years to come before he turns 15
