With their points win over Mongolia, the Azkals are now in a totally different territory which will show whether they deserve to play with Asia's best or not. However, since the group is composed of Fil-'somethings', it has become a problem for their coach to form a cohesive and stable team to continue their exploits.
I guess, Weiss' biggest challenge now (the Azkal's coach) is where to find that homegrown batch of players who have the potential to play football at an international level of play! Yes, the presence of the Fil-'somethings' have placed the Philippines on the football map of this part of Asia, but Weiss has to find who of these guys have the commitment to stay here and be part of the Azkal experience.
Yes, the offers abroad are far more lucrative so Weiss has the task to find who of these Fil-'somethings' want to really stay and play for the Philippines - and really be part of a team. Football is not an individual sport and although it has its own big individual superstars - it is still the team that makes you get that goal! Hope finds those local guys who have as much heart and potential to make us a football superstart!
