All games in Sri lanka and they paid players (mostly local Gyms) to come and play for the team. I think even spectators were paid to come to stadium. :P Disastrous investment.

Pakistan should concentrate on Baluchistan area where Football is number 1 sport. I am against playing European players of Pakistani heritage for National Team. No team can go forward on long-term basis just on foreigners. Homegrown talent is required. They need academies in Baluchistan, Gwadar Area which are close to Iran border and Oman.
i agree with all that regarding development and pre 1971 pkn team.. but right now due to security situation, lack of funds and vision the overseas players are short and medium term solution but the development has to be stepped up alongside it.. if we manage to qualify for challenge cup and perhaps win a saff cup i think that will turn few heads, attract investment and sponsorship.. which then can be used for youth development..thats the way i see it.. otherwise fed can continue to say we developing youth with no results from senior team hence no accountability..
miandad ke relatives bahut controversial hain. :P our TV channels are full of pakistani greats-Imran khan, Wasim, Waqar, shoeab akhtar, Ramiz, zaheer abbas. everyone is welcome. miandad controversy becoz of his relatives.
