2012 AFF Suzuki Cup

[bluecross123]

napapansin ko lang, puro experiment si weiss.. di nya nagagamit potential at skill sets ng players nya to the max.. sayang ang slots na pwede sana ma fill-up pag mawala sa lineup lalo na starting 11 ang mga banban, bwakaw, glory hunters, at dapain..

kasi hanggang ngayon di pa rin niya ma gets kung ano ang style ng players niya.
hindi rason na wala yung mga ibang half-pinoys, yung mga core players na madalas dito dapat alam niya na paano i manage ang styles ng mga yan! it's been how long na? more than a year? does it even take that long to know a person hindi buong personalidad niya kundi style of playing lang. eh tayo nga sa chicks pa ang dami na nating nalalaman tungkol sa kanya in just a month nga lang eh halos kilala mo na siya ng buong-buo eh yun pa kayang isang taon pa. i'm talking about her whole personality and not just one characteristic like her sports and how she plays. kahit pa marami ang players na mga yan, ganun din kahit pagsa-sabay-sabayin natin mga chicks makikilala pa rin natin sila ng buong-buo lahat kahit di pa umabot ng isang taon.

yung dati ngang coach eh, he only had 2 to 4 months to adjust tapos ayun nakuha niya kaagad paano i manage at coach ang team.
walang kung anu-anong rason binigay like lack of cohesion etc etc

feels like yesterday when I made the thread for the 2010 one, when nobody gave a crap about the Azkals save for a few us, but with good fortune, the rest is history, looking forward to making more progress on this one, we could at least entertain thoughts of winning

i had to sign up sa isang betting site para mapanood yung phi - sg na group game nung last suzuki cup..tapos wala pang commentary yun hehe. ngayon may thread na agad months before hehehe. i hope we get crowned kings of south east asia this year! COYA

As Indonesia's on the verge of being suspended by FIFA, what happens at the Suzuki Cup if they do get suspended (and don't get un-suspended in time)? Will the AFF simply add the 3rd placer from the qualifiers?

I heard recently that the Indonesian FA have agreed to make a league that combines both leagues, IPL and ISL (or the rebel league but this league is more competitive) so, expect Indonesia to be strong in the AFF Suzuki Cup this year but we still have to wait until June 15 on FIFA's decision about this matter.

If Indonesia does get suspended, I say that the AFF should invite Australia as a "special guest" to fill in for Indonesia, that should give some pretty tough competition to the likes of Vietnam and Thailand (Of course being a minor tournament the Aussies will most likely send their B or U23 team rather than the big names, but still tough competition though)

ano na balita sa indonesia? payday na

[brummie]

Well the Indons are confident enough to schedule a four team tourney in Jakarta in late July. They will be inviting Everton, Galatasaray and Malaysia to play.

Singapore
1st place country from the qualification round

Fair Play: Thumbs down on PFF's compensation plan

EVER since I read about the PFF’s plan to compensate European clubs for the services of their players who play for the Philippine national team, I’ve wanted to get Dan Palami’s take on it.

The plan, I think, is iffy at best and would be a waste of money that would have been best suited to, say, development of local referees?

If the PFF pays Fulham or the other European clubs so they’d be more inclined to release Neil Etheridge, Stephen Shrock, Dennis Cagara, Jerry Lucena, Paul Mulders and the rest, what does that tell clubs like Kaya, Global, Stallions and Loyola, who have always been more than willing to release their players?

Sure, Fulham and the like are miles apart from the local clubs but I think the UFL clubs suffer more than the European clubs when they release their players for the national team, especially when the league is ongoing.

So I asked Dan his take on that.

I got a grimace.

Admitting that it sets a bad precedent as local clubs would be asking “What about us?” Dan said, “What he (PFF president Nonong Araneta is saying is that the PFF is willing to do everything to make sure the players will be able to participate in this tournament.”

This tournament being the Suzuki Cup, when all these things started.

And the Europe-based players’ participation is going to be a touchy subject, that the PFF, national team management, players and local clubs will have to deal with.

Everybody knows these guys bring a different level of football in the national team, but for events like the Suzuki Cup, if we’re lucky, they show up a week before the tournament and of course, will take the spots of those who have been with the camp for weeks, or months even.

And if they don’t show up, well, we miss that bit of competitiveness.

“Yes, there is some resentment,” Dan said, “And it’s understandable because you train for a long time and you hope that you get to play. But it’s also obvious once they (Europe-based players) play, why they get to start.”

In a 23-man team, there are 23 guys who want to be in the starting list, and three wishing to be the sub, if the coach makes a sub. If you keep warming the bench for so long, it gets to you. (Unless of course, if you’re the sub keeper and it is understood only an injury will get you on the field).

Dan hopes that those who make the training camp realize the value of their contribution in the scrimmages, training. He hopes they realize that the competition for spots, is in itself valuable.

I agree. That’s true. But it’s also true that sitting on the bench in every game sucks, especially since this is the national team and everyone in the 23-man pool is a starter in their clubs.

So Dan is cooking a compromise.

“In games when Fifa ranking points are at stake, we are going to field our best lineup, but in friendlies against clubs, like in Chicago, we will let them play,” he said.

Them, of course, being those guys who we don’t see when the national team plays at home, unless of course, the camera pans on the bench.

Aside from that, there is something brewing that the clubs should be really concerned of—the planned changes in the PFF charter that would enable them to be members of equal standings with the FAs, who are, as of now the only members of the PFF.

That is strange considering Philippine football is now powered by the clubs.

I asked Dan what’s happening with the move but he said there’s resistance from some FAs, who are reluctant to admit the clubs into their fold.

The PFF has the most unique set-up—an FA-based membership—and that’s something the AFC Vision Asia wants changed. And of course, those who don’t want any changes, or are afraid of them, are FAs who’ve done nothing for years except ask when’s there next doleouts from the PFF?

Like I told Dan, “We’ve had this same setup for years, it’s time for a change.”

Don’t you think?

As long as we will field the best XI available out there that would be fine. And pick the best players huwag padrino system kaya olats tayo pagganun lineup walang challenge parang magaling lang pero wala naman talagang ibubuga lol

[ChaosMohawk]

Oo nga eh. Kung individual skills lang rin naman ang paguusapan ang SOBRANG LAMANG tayo. Especially since we have the best player in SEA right now with Stephan Schrock. Ibang level si Schrock eh, kaya nahirapan yung ibang members ng team na makacope dun sa mga ginagawa niyang plays nung game against Malaysia.

The draw for the 2012 Suzuki Cup will be held in Bangkok on July 11 and not July 15.

[nuss]

may live broadcast ba yan tulad ng ginagawa nila sa world cup at fa cup?

[TheYoungblood]

So TV5 got the broadcast rights to show the 2012 AFF Suzuki Cup. I guess with AKTV showing the Suzuki Cup, sana 'wag delayed pero kutob na they will do everything kasi gabi naman ang live telecast. So... congrats and good luck. Preferred to pa din Studio 23 though. Marami kasing walang signal sa mga probinsya pag sa AKTV eh.

[duriancoffee]

Ba't kasi ang istasyon ni Manay ang kumuha ng rights sa Suzuki Cup, eh sobrang hina ng reception ng AKTV sa amin. Kelangan pa ng Baron Super Antenna para masagap yung signal. Buti naman pinapakita naman to sa Star Sports baka sakali may magpapa-viewing party ang kapitbahay naming may cable. Problema rin dyan yung nasa abroad. Limited pa lang na lugar ang merong Kapatid TV5 at AksyonTV International, so mahirap i-follow ang Suzuki Cup kung local coverage ang pag-uusapan, although those sa Asia-Pacific can watch it via Star Sports naman. Pero aangal talaga yung mga nasa US at Europe nito.

[jmdarcega]

so yung contract ng Azkals sa ABS-CBN ay pang friendly games lang pala? LOL.

Naisahan na naman ang Lopezes. XD

[PorferioKabisig]

So ibig sabihin nito no Spongebob? Pwede.
