Successful coach and a... |
You know guys, those who have seen my post can never say I'm rabid anti, "this coach" and I'm still not. But we can certainly agree for this series of games:
Placing players at their 'unnatural' positions when there are others who have grown up playing that position is, shall we say. disastrous. Maybe in practice, but the real game??
What kind of morale will the players have when they play the game of their lives and then leadership decide NOT to start them, or sub them in when the game is almost out of reach??
I saw Leonora, a kid I was and still am high on, play undisciplined and out of position against Vietnam. This is a disciplinary matter. Can't the coach handle his players, or has some of them "tuned" him out already??
I saw Barbaso a "capper" and arguably the best young defender who is a local product, not included in the pool.
I saw Basa, a capper, who is inserted in the lineup as an afterthought, who did not seem "ineffective" then sat down again so the "leadership" can put a holding midfielder in his place.
I saw R Fernandez, a guy the "leadership" has admitted he was high on(interview during the ICanServe tourney) and left to rot at the bench. A real defender forgotten, when we needed him most.
I saw the result of this defensive experimentation result in a 5-0 defeat! Thanks 'leadership' did you find the right mix of out-of-position players to effectively sabotage our game?
I hope most of these kids would come back for the next SEAG series and that we haven't lost others who want to play for the team because of this "leadership" debacle.
For the BOYS:
Win one against Brunei boys! At least you go home on a positive note. Even if the man in charge will start a midfielder at center back and not start the best striker for God knows what reason. Fight hard, fight for yourselves and for your country, fight for your long suffering fans. Maybe next time you come back, someone else will be in charge, someone dependable. Someone like all of you!
