Garrett aims to make positive impact on national team

Still seeking their first victory in the top tier of the CONCACAF Nations League, Guyana welcome Guatemala to the Synthetic Track and Field Facility today for the third match of the competition for both sides as national player Jeremy Garrett aims to make a positive impact.
Garrett, who has made five appearances and accumulated 270 minutes this season, has been a highlight for the national team as he is reliable on the back line and able to disrupt penetrating passes.
Garrett, speaking exclusively to Guyana Times Sport, divulged that maximum effort would be given to reap success as a team.
He said, “For me, it’s always a pleasure to represent Guyana and do my best, you know, give 100 per cent. So for me, to measure how much of an impact I would give, it’s kind of hard. But at the same time, my impact would always be my 100 per cent. Always, you know, I’m looking to do as best as I can to help the team from an individual perspective rather than to a collective perspective. So, to measure my impact, it might be a bit unorthodox or just a little difficult. But for me, it’s always about getting the job done and doing your best and pushing yourself to the limit for me.”
He went on to reveal the elements worked on during the international break.
Garrett said, “There’s a lot of key elements to focus on during these breaks, but I think there has to be a collective objective and that’s what the programme has at the moment. You know, we have our own, a lot of our own elements that we have focused on in terms of our possessional awareness, in terms of a little bit more of our tactical awareness and how we want to play and how we want to defend, etc. You know, in the game, we focused a lot on more of our team bonding and a few other stuff, but most importantly, a few of the key elements, you know, that we’re focusing on more are our tactical and our tactical awareness.”
The Golden Jaguars will be looking to bounce back as they were held 2-2 by Martinique, dropping them down to fifth in the Group B standings, three points below Guatemala, who are second following a 0-0 draw with Costa Rica.
