Don't tell me Patino is injured again?? It's a pathetic squad! Right off the bat, 10 defenders!!! What the hell is Cooper gonna do with so many defenders, play a back six or seven?!? Then Dizon gets called up but his last appearance at club level was August 3!!!
ReplyDeleteThere are 3 national team players playing for Ratchaburi and all of them did not play in the match against China nor in the upcoming matches. Is this the club's choice or is it the player's, (Patino, Ott, Nassari). choice?
ReplyDeleteOtt probably still has fitness issues as he only made his first appearance for his club on October 2. Nazari probably has eligibility issues, while who the hell knows what's up with Patino! I think he was injured for the October window but he's not anymore.

KC 12 Ikaw ang BUGOK!!! wlang alam sa football hanggang dito basketball pa rin nasa utak mo!! Maglaro ka muna sa national team para malaman mo ano quality na player dapat maglaro sa level na yan. Kung kumuha man kayo ng Foreign born wag second tier na players dahil wala rin tayong patutungohan hanggang pa pogi lang !!!

DeleteTarantado! Halatang ikaw yung walang alam sa football!! Kahit "second tier" foreign born players, mas magaling kumapara sa mga local!
Phil Younghusband, Javier Patino, Rob Gier... tatlong example lang yan, mga importanteng player ng national team past and present. Mas mababa pa sila sa "second tier". Kahit nga si Schrock, second tier lang yan! Saan ka ba makakakuha ng player tulad niya sa pinas?! Wala! Kaya manahimik ka engot ka!
