Last month I went to the Kallang Stadium to watch the 2nd leg of ASEAN cup, match between Singapore and Vietnam.
The Kallang spirit is still well alive. The match was played to a capacity crowd of more than 55,000 fans!
But...
What loads of CRAP from the Singapore players!!!!!
No strategic awareness.
No confidence.
Zero technical skills.
Total Crap.
Total letdown.
I mean, I have never seen a match with so many BOUNCING BALLS!!!! When you let a ball in the air bounce before you react, that means you have no skills or no confidence in trapping the ball, or first-timing it/ or heading it to your fellow team-mates. Just watch a EPL match, and compare it to the Singapore-Vietnam match... I tell you one can vomit blood when one watch the latter.... I mean, occasionally Ferdinand or Vidic will let the ball bounce, but that is to trick the attacking players... But our Singapore players?, nbz, let ball bounce in opponents' half, let ball bounce in own half, let ball bounce in own penalty box, etc... they just let ball bounce and pray... what crap...
what can I say, except absolute disgraceful display of (non-existent) techical abilities from the Singapore players.
Strategy I can understand and lay blame on manager or coaching staff... But technical skills? NBZ... its all about the players themselves.... how much a player put into practising his technical skills will invariably be displayed in full during a competitive match. How much a player practises or train will invariably show how confident he is during a competitve match as well.
Therefore, with so many BOUNCING BALLS in a match, I can conclude
conclusively that our current batch of Singapore players do not train or practise enough. As such they don't have the confidence or skill to trap/first-time/pass a flying ball in a competitve match. And there is only one word to describe the players - PlAIN LAZY (ok, two words).
The current batch of Singapore national players do not have the privilege of calling themselves Lions.
AND PLEASE DO NOT TELL ME OUR NATIONAL TEAM HAS "
GAINED VALUABLE EXPERIENCE" FROM THIS OR THAT MATCH! HOW MANY TIMES HAVE WE HEAR THAT FROM OUR NATIONAL TEAM???
when you tell me you have "gained experience", or learnt from this or that" enough times, you are giving me excuses. YOU ARE IN THE NATIONAL TEAM FOR *&^%#!@ SAKE, WE EXPECT PERFORMANCE, NOT EXCUSES OK!
Bring back Fandi, bring back Malek Awab, bring back Sundram.
