So let me get this straight. Indonesia had the perfect manager in Shin Tae Yong, they were top of World Cup qualifiers with a famous win vs Saudi Arabia and was a few games away from qualifying. But because Shin couldn't speak English they sacked him and got Patrick Kluveirt instead and are now out? A guy who was so shit at CuracaoHahahahahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahhaahhahaahhahaha
>>151403467They deserve this for hiring a black coach
>>151403467Curacao meanwhile have a good shot of making it in
>>151403467Our federation’s kinda messy, cause every president is tied up with politicians and what’s wrong with our politicians? They’re corrupt.>Shin Tae yong was hired by the previous federation president>The current president wants to boost his electability for the next election and maybe get an offer to become vice president or land some other high-ranking position if his popularity goes up (he’s also serving as a minister right now)>So, he fired Shin Tae yong and brought in his own coach to build a legacy for himself>He thinks Shin Tae yong isn’t that influential, and that it’s the white players who make the bigger impact>To make it worse, there are tons of local mafias meddling in the national team’s player selection so they need a coach who’s easy to control
>>151405037Damn that sounds like the typical 3rd world institutional experience. We are beyond shit for different but equally thirdie reasons (crass corruption, political meddling, nepotism, etc).
