@filipinofootbal: craigburrows @robelramos Did all three coaches resign ? Do you know more about the reason why they have resigned ? craigburrows: @robelramos @filipinofootbal Yes it is for real, Edwin Cabalida, Edzel 'Brax' Bracamonte & Roland 'Roroy' Piñero gave the Azkals so much. craigburrows: For those asking me about Edwin Cabalida, Brax Bracamonte & Roroy Piñero, I think they should to be the ones to comment. Thanks. While the new coach is well liked both by fans and media does his new system alienate his local assistants?

I am not surprised by this. Dooley probably would prefer assistant coaches who he can trust to run the team when he is not around, scout potential opponents while he is coaching the Azkals, bounce ideas with about player selection and management, etc. In most mature national setups they usually decide who their assistant coaches are. It would be nice to have local coaches learn under Dooley, but to get the best out of the team having asst. coaches he is comfortable with is probably a necessity.
Having said that, I am sure all our former coaches are qualified to do the job, although under Weiss, I have never seen them scout potential opponents, which is technically one of their responsibilities. There is a bright lining to them being let go though. I am sure many teams in the Philippines will benefit from their expertise and experience with the national team.

I agree with what you say about mature national team setups. It's not unusual for the new head coach to bring in new staff. It was the situation with Weiss and McMenemy that was unusual where they brought in no one. And that's because the focus was on getting improvements, any improvement, from the depths of despair, and bringing in the assistant was not part of the equation. Bringing in some or all asst. staff was probably something Dooley and Palami discussed during the interview. For example, take the case of Bradley when he took over the Egypt team. That deal included bringing in at least one of his assistants. He happened to be Egyptian and was the one to led Bradley to that opening, but still the fact remains that Bradley brought his assistant.

I just overheard (or someone whispered to me) hehe , "it looks like the new coach is having his own way" ! Just like i said before , there are disagreements (two sides of the party) maybe its good or bad ! pero ito lang ang masasabi ng sources ko , "ipinaglalaban nya yung gusto nya , yung gusto nyang gawin " , like breaking the "normal" or the traditional way ! . ! And hindi sya yung coach na influenced by popular demand or traditional way. lets see what happens next . ! more changes soon "maybe" like "unusual/surprise" call up or drop from the line up ! walang superstar mentality ata ito eh .

Kuriyama played 10 years in Liga MX, the Mexican professional league, most notably a four-year stint with Mexico Cruz Azul. He has coached in Japan for six years. Last year, he assisted with the development of players of the under 23-year old national team of the Republic of the Philippines. He is part of the Total Football setup along with Leigh Manson.

Just as I thought, it was Dooley who brought Baltazar in: Azkals coach Thomas Dooley has brought in a new deputy in Portuguese Bruno Baltazar as he tries to whip the Pinoy booters into top form for the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Challenge Cup. Baltazar, who played central defender during his playing career, served as head coach of Atlético Clube de Portugal II Liga and Sport União Sintrense III Div prior to coming over to Phl. The 36-year-old from Lisbon joined Dooley and the rest of the team in the Azkals’ weeklong training camp in Doha, Qatar, where they are set for international friendlies against Nepal and Al Ahly on Friday and Monday, respectively. This trip will serve as the next phase of the Azkals’ build-up for the May 19-30 Challenge Cup in Maldives, where a coveted berth to the 2015 Asian Cup is at stake. “It would be a dream win the (Challenge) cup and play the Asia Cup. I’m excited, “ Baltazar said recently in a report on Portuguese site A Bola. The Azkals left for Doha yesterday, seeking to further improve under Dooley, who took over just last February. The team targets a first victory with former US skipper Dooley at the helm after settling for a scoreless draw with Malaysia and yielding a 0-1 setback to world-rated Azerbaijan in a previous sojourn last month. Phl XI has earned raves for their improved passing game and overall style of play in those friendlies but seemed to be wanting in finishing. “All the players feel that we’re playing better football, and we’re passing the ball and we’re creating chances. It’s just scoring goals and winning the game,” veteran striker Phil Younghusband told ABS-CBN New’s TJ Manotoc prior to their departure. “Coach (Dooley) has told us that that’s the objective now. Although we’ve played good football, at the end of the day we have to put the ball at the back of the net,” he added. Dooley has called up a mix of veterans, newcomers and returning players for the Qatar camp, hoping to try out a lot of combos and widen the talent base for the major battles ahead. www.philstar.com/sports/2014/04/09/1310510/dooley-taps-portuguese-deputy-coach-azkals
