    I surprised Glenson get a call up. He has been good in the past but recently cannot even find his form for Possie. If you picking the team on performance on my part he not in it. I does follow football year round. On my part i would give dem exodus keepers a chance. Dey just win Division 1 undefeated and season before dat i think dey loose in d semi on pk and i think dey was undefeated till d semis. Dey have 2 good keepers and i would invest in these 2 good young goalkeepers instead of bringing back Glenson. we should be looking forward not backward

    DFA please help me here. Why is this Prince guy on the team? I saw his Portsmouth team playing a few games and he did not feature in the matches neither can I recall he being the custodian for his club during the regular season. I am happy you guys did one thing right by getting rid of this over rated player and goal keeper as the national team captain but i am disappointted by his selection this is sending a bad message. Come on Kurt and Ronnie you all can do better.

      Glen ignore those haters. Bet they are footballers who can only dream of making the national team, but don’t have the skill, character, technique or discipline to reach such heights. Be gone haters.
