mau tanya skit jer.. 'badi', kalu bleh dikatakan badi laaa.. badi kekalahan mula melanda skuad harimau malaya dlm beberapa perlawanan akhir-akhir ini. paling terusk, kalah di tgn s'pore masa perlawanan pertama pusingan kedua kelayakan piala dunia zon asia & keputusan seri pd perlawanan kedua di stadium bukit jalil mengesahkan skuad negara terkeluar dari saingan tersebut. persoalan nya..

1. sejauh mana sebenarnya kebangkitan skuad kebangsaan?

2. sejauh mana kesabaran penyokong tempatan?

3. sapa perlu dipertanggungjawabkan?

Safee curi tumpuan

QUOTE
BAGAIKAN pahlawan di zaman silam, penyerang Harimau Malaya, Mohd. Safee Sali jelas tidak pernah mengenal erti mengaku kalah.

'Takkan
Safee hilang di dunia', kecederaan otot yang selama ini membelenggunya
ternyata tidak menghalang penyerang prolifik itu daripada berterusan
menjaringkan gol semasa latihan ujian pemilihan bersama kelab England,
Cardiff City setakat ini.

Semalam, Safee sekali lagi
membuktikan kehebatannya apabila berjaya mengatasi beberapa pemain
pertahanan Cardiff sebelum meledak beberapa gol, dan aksinya itu
dikatakan mula menggamit perhatian pengendali Cardiff, Malky Mackay yang
kini dikatakan lebih cenderung menguji Safee berbanding penyerang lain
semasa sesi latihan tersebut.

Doa ribuan peminat bola sepak tanah
air yang mengiringi pemergiannya ke bumi Cardiff sejak Isnin lalu bagi
memburu misi sebagai pemain pertama Malaysia beraksi dalam kancah
saingan bola sepak England ternyata berbaloi apabila Safee tidak lagi
dihantui kecederaan itu.

Pengurus peribadi Safee, Zakaria Ab.
Rahim berkata, buat masa ini Safee masih dipantau pengawai perubatan
kelab tersebut bagi mengelak kecederaannya bertambah buruk meskipun
Safee memberitahu tidak lagi merasa terjejas akibat kecederaan lamanya
itu.

"Safee memberitahu dia tidak lagi merasa sakit semasa
melakukan percubaan ataupun ketika menggelecek bola, dan ia sememangnya
perkara positif apabila dia berjaya menjaringkan beberapa gol hari ini
(semalam) dalam sesi latihan setelah kali pertama melakukannya sebaik menjalani sesi latihan Selasa lalu.

"Misi
Safee untuk menyarung jersi Cardiff juga agak cerah apabila dilihat
lebih kerap diuji berbanding penyerang lain, dan saya harap Safee dapat
mengekalkan aksi konsistennya selepas ini," katanya kepada Kosmo!

Episod
perjalanan Safee bagi menjadi pemain pertama negara bermula apabila
mendapat 'lampu hijau' daripada majikannya, Pelita Jaya bagi mengharungi
sesi ujian pemilihan bersama Cardiff selama kira-kira dua minggu
sehingga 27 September depan.

Selain Safee, turut dipanggil
mengikuti ujian pemilihan tersebut ialah bekas rakan sepasukannya di
Selangor, Safiq Rahim dan aksi kedua-dua pemain tersebut dikatakan mula
menggamit perhatian setelah beraksi cemerlang dalam Kejohanan Prajelajah
Asia baru-baru ini.

Malah, ketajaman Safee dalam melakukan aksi
penyudah ketika beraksi di pentas antarabangsa ketika ini persis lagenda
bola sepak negara, Allahyarham Datuk Mokhtar Dahari satu masa dahulu
juga dikatakan banyak dipengaruhi oleh latihan keras yang dijalaninya
sepanjang berada di Indonesia, dan Zakaria sendiri tidak menolak
kemungkinan itu.

"Semasa beraksi bersama Pelita Jaya, Safee
banyak beraksi dengan pemain-pemain antarabangsa yang lebih kompetitif,
dan ia pastinya mempengaruhi corak permainannya agar menjadi lebih
bahaya di depan gawang lawan.

"Malah, Safee juga berjaya
menjaringkan tujuh gol meskipun hanya beraksi sebanyak 14 kali bersama
Pelita Jaya sebelum ini, selain turut dianugerahkan pemain terbaik
perlawanan sebanyak tiga kali," katanya.

manager cakap shushah nak sign dia..nampak macam dia tak favor sangat safee sali ni..

Cardiff City manager Malky Mackay today described the Malaysian David Beckham Safee Sali as a ‘nice lad’ but fears the Bluebirds maybe hamstrung by bureaucracy when it comes to signing him.

The club’s Scottish manager confirmed that Sali will be with the Bluebirds for two weeks and is currently two days into that stay, saying: “He’s only been with us for a couple of days and from what I can see, he’s a nice lad.

“He’s a stocky striker and he comes with a track record so I’m happy to have a look at him.”

Explaining how he found out about the 27-year-old who has scored 110 times in 138 appearances for a range of clubs, Mackay said: ““The owners spoke to the recruitment department and I said 'let's have a look at this lad.'

“A couple of teams in the Premier League have tapped into the Asian market and if it's going to help Cardiff City, I'm up for it.”

But Mackay spoke of his concerns that strict FA work permit laws may hamper the chances of getting a work permit for the Malaysian, whose country is currently ranked 146th in the world.

Mackay said: “We are hamstrung in the UK by work permits and criteria to get players into the country.

"Park Ji Sung at Manchester United couldn't sign until he'd played for PSV Eindhoven in Holland for a couple of years.

“Most Asian players have to go through Europe and get bought by British from Europe, so we're not on a level playing field.”
