I
need a decent proposal to go abroad : Ashfaag
22 July 2005
ASHFAAG: receiving
the award of highest goal scorer of 2003
Msoccer: Is there any one’s influence
when u sign a contract?
No. there is not. But I always ask my mom. So can say that mom
has an influence
Msoccer:
There was speculation that you would be seeing in another
club this year? What happened?
There was a talk with New Radiant and I did not opt.
Victory also contacted
Msoccer:
Why didn’t you go to Portugal?
Actually I did not go because there were some personal reasons.
That’s why I did not opt to go at the last moment.
Msoccer: How
do you rate Kiss, the former coach?
He is a good coach in his ways. He tries to play good football.
Msoccer: If
there is any improvements that you feel that has to take place
in Maldives in order to increase the level of football what
do you think it is?
The game is too defensive. Whether we play a home team or an
away team we still have the same level of mentality. Play defense.
It has to be changed a lot.
Msoccer: There
was an argument between you and kiss. What happened?
Actually it cannot be said as an argument. It is more over a
misunderstanding. He thought that I was not concentrating and
gave up. But it was not like that. That’s why the disagreement
was there. There was no argument about that.
Msoccer: Do
you think players should play professionally instead of semi-professionalism?
yeah it should be there. I don’t think players can concentrate
on it now
Msoccer: When
are you getting married?
very soon
Msoccer: Will
you go abroad if you get a chance?
Ofcourse I would go, but it depends on a decent proposal.
Msoccer: Will
you take part in a song?
No way. If it is a still photo it is ok. But not in a movie
or a TV advertisement.
Msoccer: Which
defender is difficult to beat?
Anil and Amil
Msoccer: What’s
your happiest moment?
When I received the two awards (Footballer of the year and Highest
goal scorer in 2003)
Msoccer: Who
do you think is the best referee in Maldives?
Ali Saleem and Riyaz
Msoccer: Whom
do you want to give credit to make you as who you are now?
Firstly my mom, then Mohamed Ibrahim (Kappi), Athif, Shah Ismail
Msoccer: Are
lights a problem for you?
Well, it is not a problem. It makes easier for us to play. They
should change all the games to play at night.
Msoccer: You
were sent back from the team selection squad of 3rd SAF championship.
Why?
Because of some disciplinary problems I think. I was sad to
come. And thought I would earn it to come back to the team and
I am now happy that I did it.
Msoccer:
When your contract expires when considering
other teams, will you opt for New Radiant?
Can’t say no. but there is very less chance that I would
go to New Radiant.
Msoccer: What’s
the difference between Kiss and George?
Kiss plays a running game without the ball. But George plays
with as a team. You would not know when your tired when you
play with the ball. And everyone enjoys it.
Msoccer: Your
play is very low these days? Why?
It is because of Injury. I have a cyst near my left knee. I
am doing an operation after upcoming Dhivehi league. I might
go to abroad to do it. But have not decided it yet. It is difficult
to walk even. I use a guard in the matches these days.
Msoccer: Where
do you think Valencia needs more improvement?
Midfield. Now the defense has to play a long ball and we have
to run for it. If the midfield is strong we can play it accordingly.
Msoccer: In
AFC cup, Valencia did not perform well. What do you think is
the reason?
Lack of Concentration. And there was no interest on it too much.
I can say for sure that we can win those games.
Msoccer: Do
you think physical fitness should be improved? Like a gym to
be functioned in a traning program?
I personally think it should be done as well.
