This is the difficulty Malaysia has. Balancing expectations and results. For me, if they use the other younger players, I don't see a problem. If Tan Kim Her actually states he's got an eye out for the future events and giving youngsters the experience of the team event, he would maintain credibility - even with a loss to Chinese Tapei. The situation now is that the coaches and players have confirmed Malaysia is falling backwards dramatically.
Same ole story. KKK can't even play one match. Seen some european coaches criticize the MAS coaching team. They describe TKH as hopeless, follwing his work in UK.
Kesian MAS team... org dr Denmark pun hantam... popular much ? Just do you best la MAS team. Confirm already will not go to final, now QF almost gone from sight... nothing much you can do but press on and keep fighting... just don't field KKK/TBH again (my personal request)
Hoon Thien How/Tan Wee Kiong would be my choice for the German tie. KKK/TBH is extremely unreliable and in their current state can lose to just about anyone. GVS/LKW are also very unstable and while they did shine in a past team event (2011 SEA Games), they lost to Ingo Kindervater/Johannes Schottler in straight games in the German Open.
Maybe they will give KKK/TBH another chance to redeem themselves now? Afterall, its a very important tie tonight. Its a do or die situation. Anyhow, if Malaysia advance to next round, I doubt coaches will dare to choose any other players to replace KKK/TBH. They are the highest ranking MD in Malaysia camp although I too wonder how they can be that high ranked.
I just stumbled across this intriguing article in a blog called "MALAYSIAN SPORTS" (the RED color emphasis is mine) Reading this article, it explains to me some behind-the-scene controversial issues during the recent BWF presidency election... along with Justian Suhandinata's own accusation that the other candidacy (guess whom??? ) did some BLACK campaign to smear Justian's reputation Justian revealed he kept the texting proof which was sent out in English, French, Spanish, Russian and Arabic. More on this matter later in a more appropriate thread. Read on this intriguing blog about the Malaysian Sports: http://ssdhaliwal.blogspot.com/
