Whoever said that Weiss is trying to inject the German style of play doesn't know how the traditional Germans play. As I said from the very beginning, Coach Weiss does not use the traditional disciplined German method. He learned his coaching techniques abroad in stints in Asia and Africa and internships in Real Madrid, Manchester United,etc and has said in interviews that he favors a more open game than the traditional disciplined style that the Germans were famous for.

UFL All Star is coined to be 1st Division of Philippine football, how much more that next week the Azkals will be in Germany and will face a tune up with 2nd and 3rd Division Bundesliga team which is comparable with some strong Asian National Team in terms of skills, They will be outclassed! The Azkals need to make sure that their success continues because it only takes a couple of bad performances for the crowd support to diminish. Azkals train twice a day while UFL is just an impromptu team. We can never blame missing "key players" on their defeat by CPU and UFL. Unacceptable it is.. They have enough defenders, strikers and midfielder coming from its bench. Goodluck Azkals! By the way i saw Paul Mulders on the sideline..

Lets not forget that coach wiess who help the azkals get through to the Challenge cup finals...
with a full line-up we can see how good he handled the team... from being defensive minded/counter attacking against Myanmar and Palestine to a great offensive side against Bangladesh...
he also said in a recent interview that the team is only 60% of its full potential... lets just hope they get all ready in their Germany camp... missing are mainstays Gier, Jonsson, Guirado, and Lucena..

Actually I have always thought from the games I have watched in the Weiss era, that the weakness we need to address the most is in defence. Whether it is the system or the players, we have been left exposed again and again in the back. Even with an average team, you can be competitive with strong opponents if you have a strong defence. Hopefully with the addition of the European based players in Germany, like Schrock, Jonsson, Cagara, Gier, and Lucena and with the addition of alternative options in centerback like Potschke, we can somewhat alleviate some of these deficiencies. If that doesn't work, they need to find another coach who can help Weiss implement a good system in defence. Having a defensive specialist is a method used by other countries and clubs to improve the overall play of the team.

I like Weiss’ mentality because he recognized that the team has a big offensive potential, he never close up the game, he likes take risk and that's cool for the fans who came watch the game however sometimes the offensive game has a big default when you play against a good team they can COUNTER attacked quickly and score a goal. - by MIKA ORTELLI

Yes I agree Hartmann needs to be in the team. BTW, how come he was not selected? He's a lot better than the No.17 Azkal player who has done nothing but just walk around and loose the ball everytime he got it. Looks like the team is deteriorating under Weiss. Defense is too slow and he is trying to inject the German type of football which does not fit the skills level of our players. si burkey ata yun! busit rin ako sa kanya eh, katagal mag cross pasa pag nasa gilid kaya nawawalan ng possession amf! for me hartmann and barbaso deserves to be in the azkals than sabio and burkey!!!

Unfortunately Coach Macca is not doing well in Vietnam at this time. His team is about to be relegated and if that happens, he has a good chance of getting fired.

By the way i saw Paul Mulders on the sideline.. last line. i saw paul mulders too. that alone tells me, weiss is really keeping some of the things hidden for now. cos we all know most especially weiss knows that we are already being scouted na, since the other teams know we are not like the old team that they will just under-estimate.

There is a reason why Burkey inspite of his size, is playing in the regional amateur leagues here in the US. He is playing in the 5th tier at USASA with the Aegean Hawks, the lowest tier of the US soccer pyramid that is allowed to compete in the US Open Cup. Now if he were younger and still developing, that wouldn't be so bad, but he is already in his mid 20's and his chances of getting better are not that good. He would still be a good addition to the UFL I believe as he plans on playing with Kaya FC, but I doubt he will be effective at the international level especially with the stronger teams. However it is quite possible, he might be a better option than some of our current inexperienced players sitting in the bench but I think we will find better alternatives in Europe like Patrick Reichelt or even junior Kevin Ingresso who play and practice everyday against experienced professionals.

then it seems yung mga azkal players na nag organize ng try-outs sa u.s. doesn't have a good eye for talent. nabasa ko dito or sa other forum na this was burkey's try-out for the nt. with that performance of his, di siya papasa. sabio also definitely needs to be out. hartmann and barbaso puts those guys to shame.

In Sabio's defence, I would have to say that he has a reason to be rusty. He has been busy studying for his finals in law school for the past 2 months and hasn't been practicing whatsoever. Hopefully he gets his act together soon and get the rust out of his system. Otherwise, I would have to agree with the rest of you that he needs to be replaced.
As for the US tryouts, they did find good young players who can play for the U-23 team, that are part of the elite US Soccer Development Academy System, who have a chance of becoming excellent players in the future. Unfortunately, they did not find experienced pros there so their choices were kind of limited. There are better alternatives who are more experienced playing professionally in Europe at this time.

have any of you heard or read sa forums of boxer aj banal na nag-facebook the night before his fight against perez? he won that fight indeed but did so by drama doing acting gapang to save himself from being defeated had he decided to continue when it was obvious he was able to do so. that illegal punch he received wasn't even strong to result to an effect he was portraying during that acting of his. he did that drama to save himself from eventually losing, kasi nakita niya na kaya ng kalaban ang power niya at nakita niya rin na di niya kaya ang power ng kalaban niya.
now paano nasali tong si banal boxer sa soccer azkals? the common equation facebook. gusto ko 100% concentration na ang azkals from now on. wala munang showbiz,facebook,twitter.

we also have to put in mind that weiss was obviously trying to learn something because there's a purpose as to why for example he put jyh in an unusual position.
another thing is, pff can capitalize on this. they should include the azkals team on ufl para matulungan maangat ang local league natin. it will help our local league and also gain revenues.
