Aisey... Preferred if our kapitan kept his cool and remain diplomatic and respectful of their rivals.

Bear in mind, apart from the keeper, the rest of the team and even the coach is quite sporting.

Kalau game dah habis, trofi dah dlm tangan... Belasah jer la quote kau2!!

You can use your dukun, jin, mambang and Bambang... We still beat yo a$$!!

Well done Malaysia!!

So many alternative choices for MVP: -

1) Khairul Fahmi
2) Norhsahrul
3) Supersalee

Or perhaps even Muslim?

Drogba is 33...

1. Maybe other fans tegur?
2. They did. But maybe other fans tegur?

Or maybe battery ran out?

I also can give excuse... You saw it, we saw it, everyone saw it plain and simple k. Case closed.

Over the course of the past few weeks, I've been really annoyed with the Indonesian media and their online population with their nonsense, non-factual and sometimes utterly retarded statements.

As annoying as it is for me and you, we cannot deny one thing though... Indonesians are damn proud of their country and will stand by their flag and countrymen no matter what. Whether if its fair or unfair, their passion and sentiment for their country will not be moved.

Our Malaysians on the other hand can even question the motives of our PM declaring public holiday and some even belittle our boys' achievement winning the AFF Cup.

The one thing that the Indos have that we don't as an overall population is a national identity. Indonesians also have various clans and puaks and they also have Indo-Chinese and Indians. But they really couldn't care less about their so-called "bahasa ibunda" or having Chinese or Tamil schools. They speak the same language and listen to the same music and above all, support their country in any sport.

As much as I hate to say this, some of us Malaysians need to learn loyalty to the country from the Indonesians........ Tapi jgn ter-over macam diorang ler

p/s: Mintak maaf pasal social commentary ni... Peace and happy new year to all Malaysians!

I once saw Datuk Lee at Louis Vuitton Star Hill (I was just browsing!). He bought not one, not two, but THREE LV handbags and was speaking on the phone with someone in Hokkien asking if she wants one. One LV bag could set you back RM4k a pop and he bought THREE at one go!

I heard he also drives a Skyline.

But all this was prior to his All England win and the Olympic Silver (yes, its 2nd, but its a heckuva achievement). So you're right, monetary rewards will not have an adverse effect on performance.

However, when rewarding our footballers, some scenarios may happen: -

1) Complacency sets in after reaping the rewards
2) Easily contented with the regional success
3) Motivation solely by money

Lets not forget that Datuks Lee and Nicol are individuals who can spend all their winnings on LV bags and Skylines, whereas football is a team game that needs everyone to pull their weight. 23 men in the team means 23 different individuals, 23 different motivation and 23 different mind set.

On the flip side, not justifiably rewarding our footballers may result in them resorting to "alternative" short cuts for monetary rewards. Do we need to be reminded about 1994?

There needs to be money in the game, but the execution of it needs to be done flawlessly by the state FAs and the FAM. I'm afraid though, that this is easier said than done.

That's more for personal reasons rather than business isn't it? But if the son is good, I suppose why not...

100% agree. At least ada jugak org2 daerah datang support. Its like how some English fans support both their small local team and have a favourite team in the higher divisions.

Perhaps then we can have team names such as Gombak Rovers, Ampang Wanderers, Muar Otak2...

Dude... Considering that Man Utd > England, and we put up a good fight against them, I think we'd do well against those overpaid/overated English prima donnas...

What's with Khairul Fahmi and the "auw" pose??
