    Plan B: Let Roland Muller play

    Plan C: Get Eduard Sacapano his gloves

    But no offense to Sacapano, I think it would be better for Roland Muller to play............. Will Neil be suspended for the Suzuki Cup, too? Well, I hope not

    We may win or loose in these upcoming games using some of our new local and young goalies but we will win some experience. We are already on the move along the way we will experience failures and defeats and loses, but due to these experiences like we had before as new football learning country, look at us now. We are at rank 148 which is good. God bless the Azkals, Coach Weiss and the PFF management. I salute you all.
