“Let’s look at the bright side of playing against all these big teams. There are so much to gain especially for the younger players. I told them how fortunate they are to be able to play against the best in Asia at their age. The experience that they gained from playing in such matches will definitely improve their game! So I told the younger boys, let’s all go out do our best and enjoy the moments”
“Technically, Indonesian football is slightly better than Hong Kong’s. Having said that, not all the clubs are technically good but in each of the league, there will be 3-4 teams that will be outstanding. And in terms of game play, Indonesian football is definitely more aggressive and intensive. In fact, I would rate Indonesian football 80% more aggressive than in Hong Kong! Especially since I am playing as a defender, I have the clear view of the entire play from behind. It is always full of action for 90 minutes. Indonesian league is certainly a more challenging league to be playing in”
