This is my most blunt analysis:
Back in those days, we have footballers who are not full timers. They are employees of Penang Port, TNB, Maybank etc... they got a job and they started playing football. Means? They are literate and have some brains.
Today, just because he was plucked from a kampung and can kick a ball, we elevate him to the status of a genius/ prodigy and companies offer him a job so that he can play football for them. I guess genius and prodigy is too big a word to describe these sub standard footballers. Means? They may not have brains for the game.
The key words here are: You can take them out of the kampung but you cant expect them to take the kampung out of themselves.
Some very good points mate. Many a time our footballers have no idea what to do with the ball and just boot it upfield. Players that think faster may have instead elected to make a more intelligent pass.
