I know its pretty hard to make a 23 man roster, but give me starting 11s and sure subs. Lemme start: Marbouk Z. Dosari Montasheri Tukar ?????? Gadhi Noor Al-Temyat Shalhoub Gahtani Al-Jaber Sub:Harthi Sub:Sowayed Sub:Manaf BouShgeir
Here's what I expect : Starters Mabrouk Zayed Ruda Tokar Hussien Abulghani Ahmed Dokhi Hamad AlMontashri Nawaf AlTemyat Saoud Kariri Mohammed Shalhoub Mohammed Nour Yaser AlQahtani Sami AlJaber Subs Tayseer AlJasem Khaled Aziz Mohammed Anbar Saed AlHarthi Mohammed Khwjah Zaid AlMowaled Naif AlQadi AlBahry Osama AlMowaled Manaf Abu Shgaer Saheb Thats gonna be a tough squad, make them play a couple of strong friendlies and they will take us to the next round inshallah.
See thats the thing, we have OK friendlies, but their all at HOME. WHY?????? What good is that going to do us??? The WC is going to be in Germany
The only star player in that roster is Zaid mabrouk and Sami al jaber........... Hopefully nawaf al temyat gains his previous form. My criteria for star players are players like fowad anwar, saeid owairan, Yusuf al T,................ But still this team is good on a scale of Worst Bad Good Very Good Great Excellent
Well i think that Saudi Arabia is still lacking a strong Mid Field Player and one power free kick taker like Abdullah Jamaan of Al-Hilal. This team needs to play a lot together and neat attacking soccer if they are to pass the 1st round. Anyways... the friendlies will show the strong and weak areas on which to work upon.
Do you really think Hussein is going to Germany????? I havent seen him in the team for quite a while.
Tactically, these guys are sound but physically and against the opponents that they are going to play against, I think they are not. Noor, Temyat or anyone else are not physically that strong. All depends if they will be able to control the mid-field or just lose the ball there.
i dont know if u guys have seen this match (it was before 2000) where it was the final minutes and i think hilal got a free kick and they substituted abdullah jamaan (solid build, black player) and he just fired the shot straight into goal. do u guys have clips of his freekicks or something like that.
