At least the pitch looks good.

In Herdman’s interview I think he said the pitch wasn’t good but at least the boys had a chance to experience it beforehand. 
 

Edit: It does look good though

Herdman respected Brym last game. However, he jogged for 7 minutes to protect our 1 point on the line in Aztec.

Everyone seems to be beating up on him but I actually thought he put in an effort and had a few nice touches. Perhaps I wasn’t watching him as closely as others but from what I saw in limited minutes, he looked good

I’ve said it before put I think the Hoilett thing just happened before that interview and it impacted the whole tone.  I think it shook him a bit.

Jamaica with a bit of a mess getting home after the USA match, something of a plus for us there.  At 32C and 72% humidity, could do without that though.

7-8 of our best XI is out for tonight’s match…Jamaica isn’t in better shape but at this point I would gladly take a point and gtfo out of Jamaica healthy with an eye on beating Panama at home.

Does anyone know if there's a live stream available for this match?  Hesgoal.com doesn't appear to have it.

That makes sense.
 

Is it the drink and thinking it through too much by my wondering if Hoilett is actually heathy to go and this is all a ploy to throw the Jamaicans off?

When I was in Kingston a couple of years ago and wound up kicking a ball around a patch of grass near my hotel, two things struck me: 1) the grass is like concrete and super thick and 2) the humidity is murder.  So yeah, the grass looks good but it can feel like astroturf

Appearances can certainly be deceiving. Even BMO’s pitch has with the green paint and sand after an Argos games. Hopefully it bounces right for Kingston tonight.

Phonzie and David start

[king1010]

No hoilett

Edit. At least he makes the bench.

Probably more worried about the yellow so he’s there Wednesday 

[BrennanFan]

I expect a big game from Millar. This is his opportunity. Time to step up.

Happy to see Davies and David , take care of things, get the lead get them off ASAP.

Doneil scares the crap out of me, hopefully he does it have one of his brain fart moments, that could cost this team. 

[Floortom]

A Henry- Cornelius pairing scares me.

really need Phonzie and JD to dominate Jamaicas terrible backline

"There is no way you honestly believe these are possibilities"...my thoughts on your attack lineups before reading any other reactions to Brym. C'mon y'all, you can't seriously think Herdman will trot out anything less up front than Hoilett and one (or both) of Davies/David can you? Millar is the ONLY option to step into a starting role in place of our tops and it's not even worth debating. Apologies for my bluntness but I just can't see the logic, even with my somewhat limited knowledge of the finer facets of footy.

Might as well toot my own horn while I can as I have ZERO idea whether this is the best option🤣

Absolutely Henry and Cornelius simply give me nightmares. Hopefully 🙏 they can stay within themselves, whatever that May me and not screw up.

So Panama has stack and tajon in for davies and David, with positions based on hutch hoillett and larins availability.  So was the reverse of what we were expecting with rest and Jamaica/Panama but possibly due to injuries
