was fatigue i guess. but di man is back with a bang now. since him cut him hair di man is a different player. scored a cracker against tivoli the other day and had an effort in dat same match dat would've been the goal of the season if Tivoli's keeper didn't save it. he was put on the back burner after a bunch of high ranking eediots were upset about how many portmore players were in the team. that's basically why simoes went for some of the worst local players. they were jus trying to prove that there was no bias to pmu players but ended up flopping big time with the ruxes from the west.

He was sporting braids...but it is good to hear he has recovered form. Hopefully, he can impress Coach Whitmore for another national team call. Also, if he wins another DPL title with Portmore this season, he needs to make at least a loan move and take his talents abroad.

no he has cut his hair and he scored a good goal recently for portmore
That kid may be skillfull but he has no head - he cost JA the match against Trinidad last year had a simple clearance to make and tried to do a fancy scissors kick the rest his History Trinidad equalized. I am not surprised by his slide - not sure what spot he can challenge for - new hair cut alone wont do it.

I think it is a bit harsh to critize Cousins, who made a typical 21 year old mistake against Trinidad. More importantly, it is what changes and improvements he makes mentally and physically since he was not part of the WCQs or Digicel Cup squads in 2008.
It is part of the development and support of a young balla.
why he have to go to abroad to test the water,why can he get the opperturnity just like any other players who walk right in the senior team,to me if you can't make the senior team it is very hard to test the water abroad.
yes he is better than the DPL he need to be playing in a higher compition,but jamaica need to give this yuth the opperturnity or els he is going to be like another good jamaica player who just faded away because he did not get the oppertrunity

The JFF has given him an opportunity as an youth international, his name is known. Now, it is time for his club Portmore United and agent need to arrange trials and/or loans deal, so that he can get some playing time abroad.

Is he ambidexterous? How's his rate of work? How strong is he? Quick/fast? Technical refinement? Percentage of forward pass completions vs overall pass attempts? Results of next two passes following that completion? Long distance shooter? Tackles well? Can he defend for extended periods? Temperment?
Mexico and Costa Rica play much higher level of ball than Jamaica.
If he's playing at a higher level than what exists in Ja, then he needs to move up to the next level of football or he'll just waste away.
Just about every coach since Siomes has had to go overseas to get players to be competitive. Barnes means Jamaica well and so far so good. Strenghtening the Ja team is a good thing.

Pressafoot, "Mexico and Costa play much higher level ball than Jamaica". Really? What the Scoreline like bet Costa Rica and Jam over yrs. What was the Score line against Mex at Natl Stadium in the WCQ? What happen to Mex and all the Pro in the U20 Championship? Maybe that was the Case at one time but not anymore. Stop spread u inferiorty complex pon the Forum Iya.
filas please take it easy,but to me costa rica and mexico football program and the pro teams are better than jamaica,as for mexico concern they are just have a bad year
