Hi Yus,
I am sorry that you missed the game. Jatto's performance was ok, but they were beaten4-1. Jatto is indeed a very fine player, he has speed and ball skills, i am of the view that he would function better if played as a twin center forward or midfielder. As for Ebou Sillah, he a phenominal left footer, who can dribble past any defender, he is also doing very well in the Belgian league. There are other players like Idrissa Sonko also playing in Holland. Regarding the tape of these players, Willie Abraham will be a good person to contact or maybe Tombong would be able to help with clips of these players.
The Scorpions are presently preparing for the Zone 11, and maybe we would finally find a way of winning it this year.

Pa Samba Jow, how did Jatto perform?
Also, thanks very much for the information, for I always enjoy watching Jatto
play his Gambian/Dutch style of soccer. Unfortunately, I was enroute from La
state to Dallas when I received your message, but I do hope the game is
re-broadcast some time this week on Fox Sports World/Americas.
I was fortunate enough to watch Jatto last season in a game against Ajax and
he was quite impressive. In fact, in that game, he appeared to be their "go
to" guy on the right wing. Willem II players would swing the ball to the
right flank where Jatto was always lurking. His speed was quite impressive
and he even managed to 'kata' a few players in typical Gambian style.
Problem is that - in typical Gambian fashion - he never really went anywhere
with the 'kata' or 'turning people around in circles' style. Nevertheless,
he was clearly the best Willem player on the pitch and his overall
performance this season - including a few goals scored - really reflects this
truth.
Apparently, there is another Gambian star - Ebou Sillah - playing in the
Belgian first division for either Anderlecht or Standard Liege who has
managed to bang in a few goals in some crucial matches this season. I have
not seen this fella play yet - but I would be very much interested in
watching him play. Also, in a tourney last week in bamako ( pre ANC warm-up)
Gambia played S Africa to a 2 - 2 tie with Arthur Gomez scoring both goals.
Arthur is another heralded player I would like to see.
If anyone on this list has a Scorpions game which features some of these
players, I would be glad to pay some cash for a tape?
