Together with Cagara they will fortify Azkals back 4 defenses. . .

      Denis Wolf who plays as a forward or as a right winger for Regionalliga Nord cub 1. FC Magdeburg. From 2002 to 2005 he played for Bundesliga club Hanover 96 thus he became first player of Filipino ancestry to play in German first tier football league (he was followed by Cagara then at present David Alba of Bayern Munich). Credentials- wise he is much better than Indonesia's naturalized player Gonzales. . . Wolf will be a great help of Azkals limited offensive options which obviously and glaringly seen in recent Zuzuki Cup. The downside with Wolf is that he is injury-prone but nevertheless a decent player. . .

      I think bringing these three players to Azkals' fold, Philippines will have better results next time they faces their ASEAN rivals. . .
      bring them in.. they can match up not only in asean but in other asian countries and who knows against regular world cup participant australia.

            Clutching at straws
            SPORTING CHANCE By Joaquin Henson (The Philippine Star) Updated December 29, 2010 12:00 AM
            There is talk that deposed Philippine (PFF) president Jose Mari Martinez will seek redress from the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS), a Lausanne-based body organized as part of the International Olympic Committee in 1984 and later reformed to be an independent council. It will take an arbitration agreement between the opposing parties – in this case, Martinez and the PFF – to bring up the issue for recourse to the CAS.
            A hefty fee is required to file the case before the CAS but money is apparently not a problem with Martinez who is backed by the wealthy Asian Football Confederation (AFC) president Mohamed Bin of Qatar. The real problem is whether Hammam’s influence can overturn a decision upholding Martinez’ ouster and subsequent election of Mariano Araneta, Jr. as his successor until Nov. 26, 2011.
            Hammam, 61, is running for reelection as and packs considerable weight inFIFA. The polls are scheduled in Qatar on Jan. 6 with Araneta, PFF secretary-general Chito Manuel and Philippine Olympic Committee (POC) chairman Monico Puentevella attending to represent thecountry. With FIFA’s recent ruling, Martinez will not be allowed to vote for the Philippines.
            Hammam has taken the cudgels for Martinez in an attempt to block Araneta’s election. In a letter to FIFA general secretary Jerome, Hammam said the vote of no-confidence that booted out Martinez during the PFF National Congress last Nov. 27 was illegal because the item was not endorsed in the agenda by the PFF Board of Governors.
            * * *
            FIFA deputy general secretary Markus Kattner had written the PFF voiding Martinez’ ouster and calling for another Congress to settle the dispute within 90 days from Dec. 3. But Valcke superseded Kattner’s ruling in a letter dated last Dec. 20. Valcke, who is Kattner’s boss, said and chairman of the association committee Geoff Thompson studied the matter and declared the vote to be lawful and in accordance with the PFF Constitution and By-Laws.
            Obviously, Martinez is clutching at straws in a desperate move to hang on to power. But what for? In the PFF Congress last month, his ouster was affirmed by 26 out of 30 provincial associations represented in the gathering. There were four abstentions and three no-shows. Even for the sake of argument, the vote was illegal and Martinez has a basis to retain his position, surely, he will lose in another election unless something dramatic happens and 26 voters change their minds. Raising the point of technicality will only delay the inevitable. The die is cast. The clear majority in the PFF has spoken and they want no part of Martinez in the future of Philippine football.
            Hammam said in a meeting in the United Arab Emirates last Dec. 18, it was agreed that FIFA and the AFC would send a delegation to the Philippines “to verify the situation in order to take appropriate actions.” FIFA president and Thompson were in the meeting, according to Hammam who said Valcke’s letter contradicted what was agreed on.
            Hammam even accused the POC of interfering in the PFF’s affairs and questioned why Puentevella will vote for the country in the coming AFF elections.


            “The Olympic Committee of the Philippines has the interest to interfere in as far as the AFC’s coming elections are concerned,” said Hammam, noting that Puentevella will be the country’s delegate designated by the PFF at the AFC Congress where the elections will be held.
            * * *
            A day after Hamman sent his letter to Valcke, Blatter himself wrote to the AFC president affirming Martinez’ removal. “After a thorough analysis of the file in his possession, (Thompson) opined that the decision of the PFF Congress to remove and replace the PFF president was taken according to the PFF statutes,” said. “In view of the above and contrary to your statement in your letter, there is in no way any interference of FIFA in the coming AFC elections as there was also no FIFA interference with the AFC Congress in 2009. I thank you for taking note and hope that both AFC and the former PFF president will respect the decision taken by the PFF Congress on Nov, 27, 2010. If not, any duly interested party obviously has the right to seek redress against the PFF Congress decision according to the PFF statutes.”
            The fear is if Martinez wages war against the PFF and tries to regain his position, FIFA might just lower the boom on the PFF and suspend the country from participating in FIFA-sanctioned events like what FIBA did in the wake of the dispute between the BAP and SBP. If suspension is meted out, whatever gains the Philippines reaped in the recent Suzuki will go down the drain.
            Why can’t Martinez accept the writing on the wall? If he loves Philippine football, he should listen to the voice of the majority and accede. Is Hamman’s involvement in lobbying for Martinez politically-motivated or is he just being loyal to a friend in desperate need of friendship? Is Hamman fighting for Martinez because he’s sure of his vote and not of Puentevella’s?
            Former PFF president and Asean Football Federation vice president Johnny Romualdez said, “Mari should return all illegal disbursements he made to himself and to his colleagues before he can call the FIFA decision illegal ... he’d rather destroy Philippine football as he tried to destroy the Azkals than give in to the rule of the PFF Congress.”
            Let’s pray for peace and goodwill in Philippine football this coming year.

                            Pages: Scary Jakarta expedition for an Azkal fan


                            By John Pages


                            Wednesday, December 29, 2010


                            MIGUEL Larrauri is a football devotee. He’s more than a follower—he’s a zealot, fanatic, activist. He worships the football on an altar.
                            Last Dec. 15, Miguel flew to Jakarta. He watched the PHL Azkals play the Indonesian team in Game One of the AFF Suzuki Finals. From Cebu, he was, quite possibly, the only person to witness the game first-hand.
                            “I have experienced many football games in my life including a championship between bitter rivals Real Madrid and Barca in the Camp Nou,” said Miguel, “but it could not compare to the atmosphere inside the Stadium Utama Gelora Bung Karno.”
                            When I asked Miguel how much he adores the game of Pele and Maradona, his e-mailed reply summed it all: “I LOVE FOOTBALL!!!! I have loved it ever since I first played football. You see, I come from a family of football players. I don’t mean just my immediate family members, but even my cousins and close family friends. We would play in the beach or any park we could play in.”


                            The excursion to Jakarta? “I got myself to Indonesia to watch our boys play because I really felt they could beat them. I wanted to watch the eliminations in Vietnam but could not go due to work.
                            “My brother and I helped arrange the team meeting with President Noynoy Aquino on Monday, Dec. 13, in Malacañang Palace. Then, we had dinner with the team that evening in The Fort.
                            “I stayed with the team in the Sultan Hotel in Jakarta and watched them train. I could only watch the first game but that was good enough for me. The team was very positive and truly believed they could beat the Indonesians. Sadly, the Indonesian team had 12 players on the field versus our 11. By that, I mean the crowd in that stadium. They truly love their team and they will boo you to death.
                            “I came out of the dugout with the Philippine flag over my shoulders before the game and the crowd booed me as if I was giving them the finger. I literally had to wear a jacket to cover my Philippine jersey to get to my seat or else the crowd might just throw something at you. Luckily I was staying in the VIP section and the president of Indonesia was five rows behind me. Getting out of the stadium was another story. If we won, it would have been very dangerous but ‘El Loco’ Gonzales made sure it did not end that way.”
                            In our talk yesterday while he was vacationing in Boracay, Miguel described the Jakarta experience as frightening. The trip from the hotel to the football stadium, he said, was only a five-minute walk. But the players took the bus, complete with police escort, and it took them 30 minutes.
                            “All the streets, all around, everywhere,” Miguel said, “They were filled with Indonesians. And, believe me, I never saw ‘the finger’ so much in my life! These Indonesian fans were rowdy. It was scary.”
                            That Game One morning, the Azkals assistant coach Aris visited the stadium. “He made a mistake of wearing the Philippine jersey,” said Miguel. “He was chased by about 10 to 15 Indonesians straight to the hotel!”
                            Miguel, who played football varsity for Ateneo de Manila University for 12 years (“from Grade 4 until I graduated in college,” he said), wanted to celebrate his team by painting the PHL flag on his cheeks. Absolutely not! He was warned.
                            Even the Filipinos in Jakarta, knowing the craze and fanaticism for football in Indonesia, were cautious with their cheering for the Azkals.
                            “After that first game, as expected, our players were kinda down. Etheridge felt guilty; there was a miscommunication between him and the defense that resulted in Gonzales’ goal. It was so loud inside the stadium,” said Miguel. “After the game, I arranged for a team dinner with the expat community. We ate at a German restaurant called Die Stube. There was a big community of Filipinos there. But, here’s the funny part. Many of the Filipinos did not watch the game live. They were scared. Many were told not to go. Instead, they gathered in a coffee shop to watch. Everybody was praning.”

                                Exactly. People seem to be losing perspective. The Azkals making it to the semis of the Suzuki Cup is the equivalent of Smart Gilas making the semis of the SEABA. The former is an achievement; the latter is a given.
