Part of the problem for UAE is that there are no national team players being developed in the top league. All the players on the national team are being developed elsewhere. That in itself is not disturbing, what needs to be addressed is the lack of talent that is actually being developed by the top UAE league teams. A quick look at those rosters has revealed that not one player is ready to make the jump to the national team. The national team roster also is in a state of regression, Thailand, ranked # 96 or so is actually on par with the UAE team if not better. Season 19, UAE will head pressed simply to keep it's cuurent ranking. If one cares for progress, a long term view is necessary where young players are kept and developed instead of being immediately sold for a quick buck. I am willing to work to address this situation in partnership with UAE teams so that a turn around program can be put in place. All I need is your votes!!
