do u think its good that every year a new coach comes in, i mean even if they make a few mistakes like this van der lem won arab cup and gulf cup and he made a mistake possibly in asian cup and now hes out, and now the job is handed back to nasser al-jawhar who was the reason for the horrible world cup 2002 show. how does it work? thanks
Nasser was not the sole reason for the WC2002 killing. Any one who watched the game would see that some players went brain dead for most of the match. To me Van der Lem end (as a coach for saudi) was certain ever since he had a stroke in kuwait. I think the saudi FA did not find mr perfect yet. Certainly money is not a big issue. I realy dont know, and to be franc I dont remeber reading any coverage about this in the local sport news. Its like every one is saying OFF WITH HE's HEAD every time a coach makes a mistake.
