the last time
unknowingly, today was the last time i would play soccer in singapore for a while. it has been such a big part of my life; a beacon, even. frisbee last sunday might have been fun, but soccer is still the main business.
did everything but score. that's probably my biggest regret as this part of the journey ends.
as time goes by, i may forget. so while everything's still fresh, i should put it down.
this is the dream XI:
GK: Loke- iker casillas
we only have one keeper. even though he might look very laxing, which he is, incidentally, he's a very good shot-stopper. probably the result of all those street soccer last time. where in the world can u find someone who says that he wants to play keeper?
DL: Wei Ming- gael clichy
when you have him in your team, you have a left-back and a left midfielder. solid both defensively and offensively, especially with that cultured left foot.
DC: Wen Kai- phil jagielka
uncompromising, commited, hard, dirty. and eccentric. when he isn't nudging you, he is actually rather nice. my biggest regret with him is that he somehow recovered enough to keep the ball off the line after i had turned him inside out a la bergkamp.
DC: Matthew- kolo toure
it would have been great to have him in attack, but his aerial prowess and reading of the game add so much stability to the defence. not to mention those last-ditch tackles.
DR: Kelvin- bacary sagna
tireless full-back who can play anywhere in defence. likes to join in the attack, picking out teammates with great crosses.
DMC: Max- michael essien
the similarity doesn't end with the looks. hard player who has limitless energy. packs a power shot and hounds opponents like crazy.
MC: Dom- andrea pirlo
elegant, graceful, and always clean, even when the pitch is muddy. almost impossible to get the ball off him. seems to be able to pick out anybody anywhere.
AMC: Wei Jun- wayne rooney
scary to have him run at your defence. fantastic technique with his repertoire of tricks.
ML: Kiat Chay- dimitar berbatov
work rate 20. holds the ball well out on the flanks. versatile. but goal-scoring record is like rosicky: score the harder ones, miss the easier ones.
MR: Edmond- cristiano ronaldo
pacy, hardworking, likes to get inside, which i think is great, because wingers nowadays should be getting into the box to score.
ST: Heng Qing- zlatan ibrahimovic
skilful, sublime left foot and an uncanny ability to get past defences seemingly at will. scores wonder goals, holds up play, releases players.
don't stop playing.
