india has been 3rd among the “worst movers” as they dropped to 160th from 134th. u can check fifa website

Faisal I agree with your point regarding playing with right formation. Hope Roberts has really worked on it. If you have played against the players then which areas do you think is strong and which is weak of Pakistan football team for Asian games.

@faisal amir – Maldives is probably the best team in South Asia. They also have Ali Ashfaq who is one of the best strikers in Asia.

well talking medical if a person has weak hamstrings his quadriceps cant contract to a great degree while ripping the poor three hamstrings muscle offs the hip! :D as far as the ideal weight that faisal mentioned some of the NOT SO FIT players are under that weight and need to bulk up and make muscle. but u-23 players have time to do that!

Then you should know about Anwar Ali,Arindam Battacharya,Abhishek Yadav,Gurpreet Singh Sadhu etc etc.

But from pics in this website I see Pakistani players are shorter and skinny than Indians.Other than your European born players everyone else seems ordinary.

I think you guys should know more about Indian Football and Indians.

but their league players are well built e.g from teams of goa

way back india did play finals mybe in 1956 or ner this date

maldives have only one stdium and one ground in the whole country.
what shame if we lose against them.

ahmed strength is of two types or more, muscular strength is needed in football, it is again divided into three types iso kinetic, iso tonic etc and their are various means for deriving it. some strenght is needed for flexibility and some for agility i.e first to the ball.
for tackling you must have proper vision and how to save urself from elbows sliding tackles etc muscles should be toned up . when quadriceps contract for shooting hamstrings which are 3 in no are straight. its actually the quads that are giving power because they store enormous energy when in contraction.

by physical strenght it can also also mean ur bone structure that is height..
which is directly related to weight as well as momentum.
it is not worth taking a risk by plying more then two or may be three short players in national team.
the physique of pakistanis is the best in asia after iran but coaches seldom choose players on merit.even this team is 45% on merit .
coming back to physical strength according to international professional football players standard a 6 feet super fit player should weigh exaxctly 72kg= 72 inches height.
margin of error .5 kg that is he is peek conditioned if has the above mentioneed weigh
i am a small time student with keen observation abilities.
the average height of indians is smaller then pakistanis that is a fact!
