Really?

How many times did the same back four start in one of the 6 friendlies that started vs Guyana?

Answer.  Zero

How many times did the same midfield start in one of the 6 friendlies that started against Guyana?

Answer. Zero

How many times did the same attack start in one of the 6 friendlies that started against Guyana?

Answer. Once (and that was back in March vs Chile)

In fact, the largest number of starters in a friendly that overlapped with the starting eleven in the Guyana game was the Venezuela game with 7 (6 field players).  That is a lot of changes.  Almost half the field line-up.

In the Jamaica game it was three (2 field players).  That was a game 13 days before the start of the Gold Cup.

How can you have any idea what he wants to do when it is clear he is still trying to figure out who his best eleven are?

You cannot know what you want to do until you know who your personnel are.

If you have determined what you want to do before you choose your players, you are a lousy coach.

This is clearly the experimentation phase.

If you are so convinced that you know what he wants to do with his starting eleven, formation and tactics, please explain it to me because, frankly, I have no idea.
