Levi, Moses eager to press on after Eve’s reappointment

Trinidad and Tobago European-based duo Levi Garcia and Kareem Moses have both admitted that they are pleased to have had the subject of the head coach position sorted out as they now look ahead to the business of preparations for upcoming Concacaf Nations League matches in September.

Garcia, who is an uncertain call-up for the next match against Curacao at the Hasely Crawford Stadium on September 7th due to a thigh injury, is keen to put the recent Concacaf Gold Cup behind him and wants to focus on the Nations League and 2026 World Cup qualifying. T&T are away to El Salvador on September 10th.

“Seeing how important these games are, it’s good to have everyone on the same page again. I am happy for coach and his staff. Now we can focus on the tasks ahead and we will continue to work towards our targets,” Garcia said.

“After coming off a heartbreaking Gold Cup this would be a perfect chance to get going again because we know how important it is to not only get a good start in September but also to stay up in League A and set things up for the World Cup qualifiers for 2026,” added the AEK Athens player.

On the injury, he noted, “There is some uncertainty on my availability as it’s a first-degree tear but I’m working on it in God’s name.”

Moses meantime is also eager to put the Gold Cup behind him.

“It’s good that the FA has made a decision on Angus and the way forward for the team going into these next two Nations League matches.

“I think the FA made an excellent choice in bringing him back as the head coach mainly because of his record and how he manages to motivate the players no matter what the situation is. He always gets the best out of the team and I believe it will be no different in these upcoming Nations League matches”

“Now we can focus on preparations and putting our heads together to try and get the best possible results.

“We know how much it hurt us with the two disappointing results at the Gold Cup. But as the saying goes, in football you always get second chances and this is what have to focus on now – putting the Gold Cup behind us and trying to capitalize on the opportunities ahead of us over these next few weeks,” Moses added.

Eve will name his final squad over the coming days for the match vs Curacao which kicks off at 6:00pm at the Hasely Crawford Stadium on September 7th.
