INJURED Emelio "Chieffy" Caligdong (MF, Co-Captain/Co-Skipper) Cause: Partially tore the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) on his left leg during a Phil. Air Force club fixture against Phil. Army FC during the United Football League on 28 January 2012 at the Rizal Memorial Stadium. 1st photo shows Chieffy stretchered at the moment of injury. Duration of recovery: As of date, doctor's advice is being waited. It will be expected he will be out for at least 5-6 months. This shall mean he will not be available for the upcoming fixtures in the Dubai training camp, the Malaysia friendly and the Challenge Cup. A similar knee injury was sustained by skipper Aly Borromeo when he tore his ACL during the UFL Cup game against Diliman in October. He is expected to return playing between April and May 2012. To us at Usapang Football, get well soon Manong Chieffy.
To give you a background of what an ACL injury is and how it can affect an athlete's career, especially football, here's a link: alltalksports.wordpress.com/2007/07/24/the-most-devastating-injury-in-football-the-torn-acl/More background from About.com: orthopedics.about.com/od/aclinjury/tp/acl.htm
A very sad news to the best homegrown talent in the azkals line-up... so without him and Aly who take the very critical role of being the captain of the Azkals for the Challenge Cup... last time coach W choose out a player to be the captain of a Philippine team is was disastrous... hope this time he will select the right one...

I think its time to find a 3rd international keeper. with Muller and Etheridge being limited, we will need Plan C. I know sacapano is good but he really doesn't have the Height.

DUBAI TRAINING CAMP MALAYSIA FRIENDLY 2012 AFC CHALLENGE CUP Update
OUT Jerry Lucena (DF) Club commitments
OUT for Challenge Cup Neil Etheridge (GK) (available for Malaysia friendly only)
UNCERTAIN Stephan Schröck (MF) Periostitis injury; club commitments
Chieffy Caligdong (MF, Co-Skipper) Meniscus injury
Dennis Cagara (DF) Has signed up for FSV Frankfurt
Manny Ott (MF) School & club commitments; might be tapped for Hassanal Bolkiah Trophy
Jason de Jong (MF) Club commitments; might be tapped for Hassanal Bolkiah Trophy
MOST LIKELY AVAILABLE Ray Jónsson (DF) Juan Luis Guirado (DF) Roland Müller (GK) (may be available for Challenge Cup only)
AVAILABLE Paul Mulders (MF)
From dingodile5: - Etheridge, Lucena is definitely out of the cup due to club commitments.
- Schrock is doubtful because of club commitments. His injury is recovering. There is hope for him to play but minimal.
- Mulders will play for Challenge Cup
- Caligdong's injury is not serious he could play in Malaysia and AFC Challenge Cup
- According to report, Cagara has high chance of making to Challenge Cup. But signing up for 6 months to FSV Frankfurt, don't know if this is still high chance. By the way, 2.Bundesliga resumes on weekend.
- Muller is our keeper
According to insiders, De Jong is apparently tapped to be captain of the reinforced U21 squad for the Hassanal Bolkiah trophy, so it might be doubtful he will be called up for the Challenge Cup.

DUBAI TRAINING CAMP AVAILABLE Jason De Jong (Arriving on Feb 8) Roland Muller (Arriving on Feb 10) Neil Etheridge (Arriving on Feb 14) What a sudden turn of events Our chances is increasing Could Etheridge be available for AFC Challenge Cup? That depends on several factors Since Schwarzer returns to Fulham so Etheridge's availability is good

So Denis Wolf will be in Dubai also? I though may confirmation pa sa team niya? Good for him pero may concern rin ako kasi pag anjan siya sa Dubai baka hindi siya payagan pag nasa AFC Challenge Cup na tayo pero gusto rin niyang maglaro dun hehe. Will his club release him today and for AFC Challenge Cup? SANA

Rob Gier injury update:[/b] Latest photos from Doha: Seems his left gastrocneimus strain recurred again. I still doubt he would be able to play against AUS U-23 this Thursday, and worse, against MAS on the 29th. And when would he able to play for Global FC? This is gonna be tough. In a positive note though, Jason Sabio has well-compensated for Giero's absence so far. So no problem for now.
