The problem is this young and promising footballers are "corrupted" by the FA of various states when they start playing in M League. The whole problem with Malaysian football is the officials/politicians who meddle in the running of the teams. Everyone knows the coach do not even have the power to select the players to play.

Mediocre players are paid good salaries. There is no pride in playing for the national team. Take a look at the players in World Cup. Some of them are millionaire players but when they play for their country they still play like their lives depends on it. When they lose, the openly cry but look at our players when they lose they do not threat it seriously because they can always go back to M League.
