Your Letters:

SIR- The Cranes will be playing this Saturday and whatever the result, Leo Adraa must not allow himself to be downhearted.

There will be criticism of him and he will need immense strength of character to overcome it.

At the moment he must believe in himself and what he is supposed to be doing.

There are always people in FUFA who will want to tell him who to pick and a lot of the criticism is not always constructive. It is actually destructive.

The secret to success in international football lies in the ability of the players to adapt to the demands of playing for their country.

I have read in newspapers that the team will be without several key players but am pretty sure those at Adraa’s disposal should be capable of competing at least against Mauritius. If you can’t beat Mauritius, then you are not good enough.

I believe it’s important to use players in positions where they are comfortable.

We will have to dramatically improve in our passing and our team play. We also require better movement on and off the ball but the potential is there for a win.
