hello Mr. Marcos Paqueta, the head coach of the saudi team has anounced his lineup for the friendly matches of the tournament this month in Riyadh the 27 player squad : goalkeepers : Mohammed Al Deaya (Hilal), Mabrook Zayed (Ittihad), Mostafa Malaeka (Al Ansar) defenders : Ahmad Khaleel, Abdulaziz Khathran (Hilal), Hamad Montasheri, Osama Al Harbi , Ahmad Dookhi Al Dosari (Ittihad), Sulaiman Amidu (Al Wehda), Nayef AL Gadi (Ahly), Ahmad Bahry , Zeid Al Mowallad (Shabab) midfielders : Abdullatif Al Ghannam , Nawaf Al Temyat , Mohammed Al Shelhoob, Khaled Azeez Al Thaker (Hilal), Manaf Abushgeer, Ibrahim Soweid Al Shahrani, Saud Khareeri, Mohammed Amin Haidar (Ettihad), Taiseer Al Jassem, Mohammed Massad Al Mowallad (Ahly) strikers : Essa Al Mahyani (Wehda), Yasser Al Gahtani , Mohammed Al Anbar (Hilal), Talal Al Meshal (Ahly), Saad Al Harethi (Nassr)
Well... where is Sami Al Jaber? Why isn't he in the squad? and better yet, where is Mohammad Noor? Has Mohammed Al Deaya taken back his retirement? Is he going to play the world cup, AGAIN? I find it interesting! One more thing, is Mohammed Massad Al Mowallad = Khalid Massad? If the star players like Sami and Noor are not included in the warm-up matches, who will definitely play at the World Cup, then what's the use of having a Warm-up match..... this is not the time to experiment any more, it is the time to unite the team and play together in order to create an understanding... but what we are seeing???? Sami & Noor not in the squad and many new players in the team for more experimentation when the world cup is now only less than 5.5 months away. Great going Saudi FA and NEW SAUDI COACH!
By the way guys, is there any way that Saudi FA get to know the opinion of fans like us? Is there any e-mail address of any prince or something?

Mohammed Masaed is a good player, give him some experience and he will be dangerous as his brother. No nour, Sami, and didn't you guys notice, no Tokar? Tokar and Montashri if I don't seem them playing in the WC with Zayed behind him I'll b!tchslap Paqueta, Osama over Tokar? The camera man kicker? And what brought Ahmed Khalil?
Nayef Al Gadi and Montasheri doesn't seem too bad,Essa Al Mahyani finally is in,More Hilal than Itti.
