Been looking at the players from the other countries and i realize this is going to b the worst ever thomas cup outing for malaysia. I m dreading it
Let's see my prediction :Malaysia vs India Line Up :MS1 : LCWMD1 : GVS/LKWMS2 : CWFMD2 : TBH/HTHMS3 : Darren LiewMalaysia vs Korea :MS1 : LCWMD1 : HTH/TWKMS2 : CWF MD2 : TBH/GVSMS3 : Darren Liew and try to win on MS1 , MD2 and MS 3 !
Not likely. I dun think they want to let Korea team to analyze TBH/GVS. Also TWK/CPS never been tested !
next match against 'on form' Germany, whether still want to put Liew Daren or send Goh Soon Huat for a try...

Goh is in the singles ! Usually, you won't see the 4th singles for Malaysia get picked for game for the TC unless there are serious problems.
Something is very wrong for Liew Daren to have lost so tamely to Lukas Schidmt. He still seemed okay against Guru but not against Germany. I think something must have gone really wrong because I consider Goh Soon Huat a much worse player skill-wise compared to Liew Daren, not to mention lack of experience.
..but this time with another Tan. let's support but not hope too much, to prevent us from getting a heartbreak.
Hard to say but I believe it will be 4-1 or 3-2 for Koreans unless MAS steals 1 single other than LCW's match.
attack is the only way to win men doubles, advice from Gill. and how true. i wonder how many times she said that whenever malaysia pairs were playing.
If people keep using lack of experience not to play in the team, none of the future players will never get any experience! Then when it gets to crunch matches, the Malaysian public say, this guy inconsistent, nervous, can't handle pressure, smash too hard, smash too soft, can't serve, can't lift, too flashy, not flashy enough, too much night club, eat too much, kampung boy, too many tattoos...you get the idea
