Give it to more eager guys, sorry but gone are the old days! We salute you guys, thank you for being a part of Philippine Football
It looks more likely Weiss will keep all three GK's and will cut:

Gonzales
Either Araneta or Beloya (maybe both?? but knowing Weiss, he might keep Araneta for his "last horrah" lol)
Maybe Misagh (too many wingers and maybe not fully fit yet)
Misagh was injured against Singapore , I think he will be dropped. Margarse, Beloya, Gonzales also.
ReplyDeleteIm not sure if Weiss has decided to field 2 or 3 GK`s in the final squad ?
If The Philippines manage to go in to the Semi-finals will Neil Etheridge be able to play for the national team?? or hes only gonna play 3 games and gonna go back to his club?
ReplyDeleteWith Phil, Wolf and Angel, do we still need Araneta? The younger midflielders would do better if we need more firepower.
ReplyDeleteSo Etheridge has been recalled by Fulham, meaning he'll be with the Philippines for the entirety of their campaign at the AFF Cup and Weiss now only needs to register two GK's.
ReplyDeletePlayers that will end being cut:
Cuaresma
Margarse
Beloya
Gonzales
Araneta or Misagh (could go either way).
