Says clubs in Southeast Asia have invested well. "If you don't invest in football, your football will go backwards. So from that regard, in (Southeast) Asia, it is done well, and and you see the progress of those teams."

FIVE. Phaeton drills it in. Largest win in AFC competitions for Sailors.

4-0. Ilhan Fandi’s effort is turned in by Jay Barnett. Probably an own goal.

3-0. Lennart Thy with a smart flick on for Kyoga Nakamura who finishes with aplomb. First goal in Sailors colours for Kyoga.

2-0. Adelaide don’t clear their lines and Bailey Wright strikes. Too easy for the Sailors.

Just like that, it’s 1-0. Matthias Phaeton just took the Adelaide backline for a ride.

Dark skies around JBS ahead of Sailors-Adelaide. Kyoga Nakamura the only local player in the starting XI for Sailors. Lennart Thy starts for the first time this season. No Craig Goodwin for Adelaide. A win puts Sailors in a very very strong position to qualify for K/O round

21-year-old Woo Chun Wei earns a very deserved first call up. Only made his 1st start in the SPL last month. Been a tidy player in the middle of the park for Balestier. Recalls for Josh Pereira, Darren Teh;both deserved. Kudos to Noor Ali, Marko for their roles in development

Clubs had already committed to players about a prolonged break. I.e players not involved in Asian Cup already booked trips, foreigners going back home for a break etc.

Can foresee maybe a 1-2 week shift at most, which means fixtures moved to the last weeks of January. So….what do we do till then ? 😅

Arsenal pretty much bought Konsa (£50m) as a temporary fix for 3 months until Saliba was back. Whilst Man Utd are still relying on the same back 4 from 2022. & that’s probably why they’re champions & we’re in a relegation scrap.
