Yorke doh bizness
Dwight Yorke, Sydney FC superstar and (more importantly, of course) the T&T national team captain, is a confident guy.
Good. Confidence is exactly what the Warriors need.
Not, too much confidence, you understand. We need equal doses of Yorke’s seasoned strut and Dennis Lawrence’s endearing humility. We need Latapy’s magic touches and Carlos Edwards’ elegant crosses.
In the Duke’s own words:
With less than three months before Trinidad and Tobago’s opening 2006 World Cup match against Sweden, team captain Dwight Yorke said the “Soca Warriors” will not be intimidated, going to Germany with a 50-50 chance, just like the other teams in Group B.
Yorke, who has been in England working out with former club Manchester United, said T&T will go to this year’s World Cup to prove they are more than just first-time outsiders as they face first round opponents England, Paraguay and Sweden.
“Realistically, we are going [to Germany] to compete. We have a 50-50 chance like everybody else. We have been in situations where we were perhaps the better team and didn’t get the results. It’s 11 versus 11 and we will be going to Germany with that mentality.”
(from the Trinidad Express).
