The best performance ............. I reserve that claim a little while

Malaysia Under 19 succumbed to the giant once again. They lost to Bayern Munchen 2-1, drawed with Chelsea 0-0 in which they dream that this result will be a catalyst to beat PSV Eindhoven at the later match and unfortunately that dream remain dream. They lost again to PSV 2-0.

I didn't expect too much from the team as I realized that our performance and capabilities are still far behind the elite club which we invited all around the world. Some said the lad have given everything to make the Malaysian Team a team that we can proud off. Well, their best is not enough and I reckon everybody demand more.

My friend asked me why I am so sceptical about the future of the Malaysian Football. I do not have the answer because even if I have the answer, would the FAM would ever listen to a 'once die hard fan of Selangor'.

I told my friend I used to support the Malaysian Team with all my heart, I even watched the World Youth Cup where we host in 1996. I underpinned Hatem Sausi and asked everybody to cheer. I did all that. We lost all the match and I am still proud with the young team.

And now look what happened to the team. Hampeh ......... When everybody return to the state and when they started to recieve a lucrative deal from their employer, just look at their attitude. So pathetic arrogant footballer as if their on top of the world in the classy world. The fact that they just incapacited to play football like the world class footballers play. What they tried to compare is that they play football better than Kinta India Football Club, A club that birth players from the estate that once a champion of Piala FAM.

I have a friend who played football for Selangor and labeled by the newspaper along side Azman Adnan as one of the Budak Disco that forced them out from the National Team Selection back in very late 90s. He was so made of being dropped from the National Team Selection and I told him Serves You Right. What he after is international cap if ever he can don the yellow-black stripe shirt. I didnt hear anything that is emotionally attached to his heart for playing for the national team. What he wanted is International Cap so that he can demand more from Selangor.

I can still vividly remember when one of the season he played few matches because he is deemed not fit through injury and proud to say Aku Tak Main Pun Selangor Bayar Gaji Aku. Apa Aku Kisah Janji Duit Masuk. Professional abroads when they injured, they want the recuperation process faster so that they can play football immediately. As if they feel guilty for having salary without playing matches. This is one of the attitude we are lacking. Basically our player after money and pride for playing for country come second.

That is the reason why I still reserve my credit to the team eventhough when they considerably play better than the senior team. I want to see their attitude when they start to get pay from the state. I want to see their desire for playing for the country, play with pride and dignity not money.

Well attitude alone will not help the future of national team to be succesfull. I do not see any development program for children under 15 and under 12 country-wide. We do have Sekolah Sukan Bukit Jalil and Sekolah Sukan Bandar Penawar. FAM and MOE were very proud with such program and I feel its totally absurd. How many player do these school could provide. The most 40.

Take this example, in the UK they have 25 top flight football club and each of the club have academy for their youth. Simple mathematics, 30 people multiple to 25 clubs = 750 young footballer, compare to us merely 40. The cheap system will not make our team a success, likewise the super structure for football facilities will not make our team superior (apa korang ingat org Iraq main kat padang rumput karpetke).

What we need is more youth academy with a reasonable numbers of coaches that can develop our youngster, and make the kid challenging themself togreatness. The training system must be in place, the sport scientist must be appointed, the nutritionist must program intake for the players. These programs plus attitude of the player will bear good fruit in the future. Its like a pillar, if any one of the program fail, the progression collapse.

Macam nak sambung lagi tapi aku balik dulu la

Breakfast at Botanical Park Putrajaya

This morning we had almost an English style out door breakfast at Botanical Park Putra Jaya. Something that we never had before and I didnt know who made such suggestion. Nevertheless it was a great one.

Arc's mum admitted to the hospital

Last Saturday I got head ache. Not too painfull but enough to give nuisance to my day. Arc supposedly met with IV together with Yum but since I got work to do and my head ache not getting any better, so Arc just stayed at home.

Sunday morning, the head ache did not ceased. I just slept to relax the pain. Arc was worried because that night we supposedly attend wedding reception in Mandarin Hotel. Her towkey made a reception for her step son. I was still dizzy when we off to Mandarin Hotel later that evening.

When we arrived we were amongst the earliest guess arrived. Arc's bos asked the hotel personnel to usher us to table # 1 for the managers. Since we were the 1st couple to arrive in #1, we chosed the spot that we can comfortably see the bride. The Guess of Honor was our Ex TPM DS AI, we were understood that this young lad be friended with DSAI when he was studying in the UK while DSAI give speech to student in Oxfords.

I tell you, the cost for that wedding reception is more than RM200k but, I still feel that the food served in my friend 's house in PD is much better than this. I ate 2 plates but it did not meant that the dish was great, I just got hungry because we only start the dinner 5 after 9. Lapar siot.

When we were on the way to the hotel, Arc got a called from her sister saying that Arc's mum felt dizzy and can feel chest pain. She wanted to meet a doctor in Bangi, adjacent to our house. We told them that it is Sunday and the clinic has closed by that time. So Arc suggested to her sister to take their mum to the Hospital.

Later Arc's sister called and told us that their mum is taken into emergency dept in Hospital Kajang. After dinner, we off to hospital Kajang and by that time it almost half past 11. We were told by the doctor that the ward is full and we need to take mum home later after she finishes her penusulin drips.

It almost 1am when we reached home.

Early in the Monday morning, the BP and sugar level was ok but when my FIL took my MIL to the clinic, the BP surged to 217. The doctor asked FIL to send to Hospital Kajang again which they did. Still full but they waited from morning till 4.00pm before my MIL admitted to the ward.

Till this day, MIL condition has got better. Monday night Arc accompanied her mum at the hospital and she will be doing again tomorrow night.

And that night, I'll be sleeping again with my rough daughter, heheheheheh
