Sri Lanka Football announce squad for Cambodia clash at home Abdulla Almutairi, Sri Lanka Football Interim Manager, has named a strong 25-man squad to face the higher-ranked Cambodia in the AFC Asian Cup Qualifiers playoff games, scheduled for the 5th and 10th of September.
AIFF should be disbanded. They do nothing. In this tenure what has Kalyan done except run a bunch of eye wash meetings and interviews at the start of his tenure?
No updates on the AIFF development center and PIO. No updates on the new baby league formats. Praful did not promise much, this guy Kalyan lies straight out of his teeth. People like Ranjit think this guy is good for Indian football. I don't know what to say. The only difference is nowadays I-League clubs are allowed to have a meeting with AIFF as opposed to previous tenure. They still have the same issues, no broadcast, no proper schedules and no promotion/relegation said in advance. Imagine this whole season players are playing with no fear of relegation.
We don't do much, Barring 4 entities nobody is doing any youth development in this country. No players are leaving the country. Our players attitude sucks as much as AIFF. I am not proud about our country we act like a bunch of spoilt brats who don't want to work for success. We are ok to be mediocre and in our comfort zone.
