What about coach lutfi ? As he deserve As national coach ? I don’t think he deserve and in football it’s 50% coach who decide what to do when to do . Essa is right forign player should at least 14 days join the camp .

lol Yousuf Butt was not at fault for both of those goals conceded against Malaysia!

Both goals were the fault of horrible clearance and man-marking from the defenders! yet Yousuf becomes a scapegoat because he has no ‘sarkari sifarish’ and then gets accused of ‘lack of commitment’ by clueless sarkari coaching staff!

Omer has left KESC and has joined NBP, and given his form against Malaysia in return leg and against Palestine and in AFC Challenge Cup qualifiers…he is inconsistent and very lucky!

I get the feeling you haven’t seen the national team actually in action to even say that there are better players than Atif Bashir (man of the match awards for Pakistan in Asian Game and AFC Challenge Cup qualifiers!) and Adnan Ahmed!

granted you are talking about Adnan Ahmed’s penalty miss against Sri Lanka in 2009 SAFF Cup…but why dont you also talk about Jaffar Khan stupidly conceding a penalty to Sri Lanka earlier in the same game??

and what about the horrible penalty misses of ‘local stars’ Abdul Aziz and Abbas Ali in 2009 South Asian Games in the same match, or the Samar Ishaq penalty blunder against Maldives in 2010 Asian Games??

You want to talk about that as well?

@ Naveed…. Agree with Essa’s conclusion of Pakistani domestic structure compared with Bangaledshi domestic structure… but i think foreigners are giving something to our locals…

U know nothing about Pakistani Football & the politics going on in here…

Agree with Rehan Mirza….

Essa should stop blaming Foreigners who are dedicating such patriotism for their Nation while living abroad & earning/living a respectable/convenient life over there. whereas they don’t need to be getting into such a mess.
All they are doing is; for their country & their fore-father’s country… I have a great respect in my heart for these guys & will always welcome them….

Ahmed Akber Khan is one of the best player in the whole squad, yet due politics and the coach, he is not getting a chance to play. He is only playing like 10 minutes. If given a chance he would definately score a goal!!

“I believe that Bangladesh is a better side but the 0-3 defeat is too much. They win against Pakistan because they have better domestic structure than what we have here in our own country. Their club level coaching is of good standard. Their clubs not only have some foreign coaches but have also roped in foreign players as well. Their league also spans over six months which keeps the players fit for national duty,” Essa said.

Couldn’t have said better!
