I checked his height, 180cm and still rapid as hell. That pace is literally one of his biggest strengths. But at 21 and still stuck in the academy with barely any regular first team minutes? Nah, he’s not the failure here, the club failed him.
JDT is the biggest failure just the same like other Malaysia clubs, no different.
It has been more than six months since FIFA imposed its first sanction against the Malaysian Football Association 🇲🇾 and the seven players who used their grandparents’ forged documents
More than six months, and still no one is able to answer a simple question: Who authorized this within the FAM? Who came up with the idea of forging documents?
The law of silence is a constant in football —primarily in Asia, I should say, given the dangers or political ramifications. And to believe that those responsible are simply at the federation or are merely part of the wave of resignations is wishful thinking: the network is as much about soccer as it is about politics.
We’ll come back to this, as doubts remain regarding the origins of other naturalized players...
🚨JUST IN: FIFA is reportedly set to introduce a new award category at the upcoming The Best FIFA Football Awards, titled “Club Owner with the Highest Number of Blocked Accounts on X.”
Johor Darul Ta’zim (JDT) owner Tunku Mahkota Johor, also known as TMJ and the Bugatti & Rolls Royce rider, is reportedly the leading candidate after a record-breaking season.
It wasn't easy to pen this, but it sums up what I am feeling personally about our game. It is personal and one that keeps questioning. There is that ounce of care left in the game, but you also ask yourself for how long? How long for Malaysian football?

@Romain_Molina As a Malaysian & Johorean, please keep going and bring the news worldwide! We have nothing to proud of from this dirty play. Football is for fair play!
Johor Darul Ta'zim Club 🇲🇾 has ordered me to delete my post and publish another one within 24 hours stating that the club – and, above all, its owner, the Regent of Johor – has nothing to do with any of this, failing which I face attacks and legal action
Firstly : intimidation may work on some people, but I have not backed down in the face of international paedophile networks (which have led to the imprisonment of dozens of coaches and officials across the sporting world), so if you think you can intimidate me with this, you can try again.
Secondly : I was referring to the Malaysian Football Association, not your club specifically. Are some of the players sanctioned for false licences part of Johor? Yes (Irazabal, Figueiredo or Hevel). Does that imply that Johor is responsible for the trafficking? No, but on the other hand, Johor may well have inadvertently breached the rule on the number of foreign players allowed in a Malaysian Super League match
Take the match against Negeri Sembilan, where those three players featured, plus the Brazilians Jairo and Bergson, the South Korean Park, the Malian Sidibé, the Spaniard Arribas, and the Azerbaijani Israfilov
There were more than six foreign players on the pitch (seven in the starting line-up), so why didn’t the federation strip them of the victory? The sanction is INTERNATIONAL, so Malaysia Super League must also be affected
Nothing more, unless your club is above the law?
No ill will
Keep the faith !
Our country has had many scandals before, incl. 1MDB as one of the major ones. Many who initially supported the perpetrators of those scandals later became convinced by the evidence and gradually changed their views after seeing a blow-by-blow account of what actually happened. They eventually followed the logic of the evidence. But for this M'sian football naturalization scandal, even after sufficient credible evidence has been presented and endorsed, some ppl's views remain unchanged....some are even taking pride & pleasure in supporting/defending it. That makes this whole scandal in particular, even more ludicrously and unthinkably funny. What's the right English word for it actually
- Perverse?
top 5 "sultan johor" @HRHJohorII" yappings: 😭🫵🏻
1. "izinkan saya mengurus kan pasukan kebangsaan"
2. "kami mengenal pasti pemain warisan harimau malaya"
3. "who was in new york?"
4. "entiti luar sabotaj FAM"
5. "MALAYSIA IS NOT MY COUNTRY, IM FROM JOHOR" 😭
What will happen next:
AFC:
-Vietnam awarded 3-0 win
-Possible exclusion from 2027 Asian Cup qualifier, but may allow to compete
-Sanctions for JDT
What should happen next:
-Mass resignations from FAM and national team
-SPRM, PDRM, should investigate JPN and everyone involved
So many innocent individuals in Malaysian football will now face the whiplash from this scandal.
This is going set us back by so many years. Trust in the ecosystem, which has always been bare minimum, will crumble. Fans will be disillusioned
Catastrophic

Knowing the whole hooha and the nature of Malaysians, Jocelyn Chia is probably gonna need to stay off social media for just 2 weeks.
Unless you know, we do the extraordinary and just... actually remember
Normalize boycotting or supporting something with your money.

Simple concept, don’t impose your likes and dislikes on others.
Apa benda lah Anwar ni. Pagi-pagi sudah buat orang marah. Kalau dihapuskan amalan tender direct nego yang macam kerajaan sebelum ini suka buat, macam mana kroni dan menteri nak cari makan nanti? Fikirlah sikit periuk nasi orang-orang kaya ini!!! 😡😡😡
