  • Thread starter Thread starter daniab2
  • Start date Start date
Makdessi just said on TV:
- Faris may play as import if his ID isn't ready on time.
- Untill now, no request from the basketball commitee to sign Ghaleb reached him.
- He asked the president of a club to give him one player and he promised him kheir.
- Two new Lebanese from abroad are currently training with the team. He didn't give names.
- Two new imports are coming this week.
- Sarkis will never coach Sagesse as long as he is the club's president.

and he last added that he will reveal lots of stuff in his press conference tomorrow.




when and on which channel?:)

has anyone considered having a list A and list B.....
or maybe having a minimum number of homegrown players,regardless of the "list" , in a team's roster? something similar to what they do in some european soccer leagues...

just a thought

Proposed just when they first wanted to apply the A-list last year but of course no one really cares.
 
At the end of the day, it will all come down to how coach Allen handles his team. Will he be able to control his players and make them be able to play under a proper system as a team or will he be getting into confrontations and clashes with the players as there are big names on his team (unlike what he had when he was coaching Tebnine).

One thing for sure is that if coach Allen can make his players fight and play hard just as his players did when he was coaching Tebnine, Sagesse will be a very difficult team to beat in this years' league and they will be very serious contenders for the title.

As for Ghaleb, i'm hoping that he will play with alot of maturity as he knows/should know that he will be just a part of this team and not the leader but he will still have important specific tasks to do on the team (usually he is assigned the "dirty work" :D).

Well exactly you need someone who handles the dirty work but on the other hand of the floor you can't have this much of players that need the ball in their hands and want to shoot.
Anyway Coach Abbaz is well known to push any team to the maximum and specially on the defensive end as for the offense well let's just wait and see if he would be able to make things work for those "stars".
 
1,2,5- Riyadi rejected the Vogel proposal because they want more than it. They want vogel and more players from the list while some FLB members (not an official proposal) may have proposed Vogel alone. and I am completely against the members proposal and i explained why several times. if if if (1000 if) Vogel must absolutely stay with riyadi , it should be by increasing the allowed number of A players to 6/team so that all teams can bebefit instead of excluding vogel from the list (solution tailored to riyadi's size).

3,4- so whose responsability it is to propose alternative? isn't Riyadi a concerned club? don't you have 2 representatives? what is your vision to solve the problem? you don't have the right to oppose something approved by the flbb and 9/10 clubs without giving alternatives.
but since jawdat and chaker approvedthe A list this year we can deduce 2 thing:
- 10/10 D1 clubs approve it.
- Riyadi don't have the righ to ask to change it for the coming season.

ifyoou have problems and nkeyet between jaroudi and chaker, it isn't our problem to solve them for you by twisting the rules that EVERYONE approved!

You want the truth and mainly what Coach Fouad told many times specially yesterday in the interview I will post soon.
Riyadi needs consistency to win big tournaments just as any other team does, we always ask for Asia but yet we make wrong decisions, we can't afford very high profile imports for all the season comparing to Mahram's huge budget.
The difference is that even with the A-list they have, the league there ends a lot earlier than Asia championship wich allows them to get players from other teams on loan and make training camps to get better chemistry and be ready for the tournament, they arrive to Asia ready mentaly, physically and technically.
We need to have that if we want to have an A-list let's just provide help for the teams playing in outside tournaments and representing Lebanon the federation should help them not just applause for them when they win and try to get some credit despite having nothind to do with any win for any Lebanese team outside the country whether it was Riyadi or anyone else.
Let's just go back to when Sagesse won Asia, Arab and had all that glory, the federation was behind them tried to provide any kind of help, all the teams were tending to help them while we don't see such things happening with Riyadi when they represent Lebanon outside.
Well after all it's of course not the only reason Riyadi don't have good planing and coach admitted it.
We always have gaps, we start preperations really late just few days before the tournament the team gets set we don't have any camps, we don't have consistency we play the league with a roster than go to Arab Championship with another one and change it again for Asia.
Those are due to problems with federations, clubs (as what happened with Fadi and Som3a) and of course due to bad managment from Riyadi administration.
 
Makdessi : Daniel Faris is Lebanese from his grandparent whose name is Ifram Fares (pure Lebanese name) from Beaino - Akkar , but this papers are old and they r still trying to get his ID.
In case , he failed to get it on time , he doesnt even mind to let Daniel Faris play as a foreigner!

This man is just GREAT!

That would be really great! Daniel would play as foreigner first and when his papers are done, he would play as Lebanese and Sagesse would sign another foreigner. This may hurt Sagesse in the short term because getting a good new foreigner in the middle of the season won't be easy and the chemistry would be affected, but for the long term it's a winning strategy since it would allow Sagesse to retain Daniel and prevent him from going to Europe and maybe never come back! Without mentioning the benefits of getting him closer to the NT...

Good job Mr.Makdessi!

Who told you the federation will accept? We can't change the status of a player from import to local in the middle of the season.

Don't give yourself false hopes!

Otherwise it's a risky bet. I don't know if Daniel can replace a good import, we have to see him play to judge.

Offensively he can but I am still waiting to see if he can adjust to the Defensive assignments Coach Abbaz will ask him to do.
