Many perceived group B as the easiest among the four, consisting of club sides competing with each other for the quarter final spots. But i dont buy that theory easily. Well known for their inconsistency in the Super League, these teams needs to improve tacticaly to reach the next stage.
Group B:
1. JDT FC: Fallen at the last hurdle in the Super League campaign and the FA cup, the southern Tigers realized that they have no choice but to go all out trying to win the cup for the first time. Fandi Ahmad or, Azmi Mohamad have mammoth task to deal with, need to re-organize his men and to put a solid performance as a team. With so many passengers in the team, Azmi need to identify the best lineup that willing to work hard for the team.
To get the best out of Nurshahrul Idlan talaha, he needs to be played at a more central role, rather than on the flank. Key players: Aidil Zafuan, Andrezinho, Nurul Azwan, Nurshahrul Idlan, Leo Nunez.
2. Selangor PKNS FC: Ranked as second favorite to qualify to the next stage, the Kelana Jaya outfit can be considered of having an average season in the league campaign. Coached by experienced Abdul rahman Ibrahim, the red ants have the quality needed to compete with the rest.
The mid-season signing of talented midfielder Nazmi Faiz has bolstered the squad's morale. I wish to see the game plan to be build around Roman Chmelo, Nazmi and Nizad Ayub. The trio could provide an effective support for the towering Patrick Ronaldinho. On any good day, they have the ability to hurt any sides, including the big ones.
Key Players: Helmi Remeli, Roman Chmelo, Nizad Ayub, Nazmi Faiz, Patrick Ronaldinho.
3. T-Team FC: Dragged by a season long off the pitch issues with former coach Peter Butler, the Kuala Terengganu based club has finaly found their steady feat. Survived from the relegation threat, they are now looked as a much compact side. Forget the beautiful way, this club must work hard to create more chances upfront, as most of the strikers are quite youthful and inexperienced.
Only miracle can turn things around for them, i don't see T team can make it to the quarter final. This is a learning season for them and i believe they can do well better next season. Key players: Marzuki Yusof, George Boateng, Damir Ibric, Iqbal Suhaimi, Mazlizam Mohamad.
4. Felda United FC: A side with so much experienced footballers in the country, but suprisingly struggled to make good impact. If they able to pull together as a team, i think they can suprise other teams with a giant killing performance. I do hope the likes of Amar Rohidan, Razali Umar, Azmi Muslim to re discover their form. They are players with international experience (Except razali) but the coaching staffs need to encourage them with positive thinking so that they can play with less presure.
Don't be suprised with Felda United's sudden come back and reach the next stage. They have the experience, and they have the quality, nothing impossible for the sleeping tigers.
Key players: Helmi Eliza, Khaironnisam Sahabudin, Amar rohidan, Leo Saint-Preux, Rudie Ramli.
