Why do we never give people full-time coaching positions at the national team? I remember when Ali Waheed was appointed in 2011, people were talking about how politicians should go nowhere near the national team. Same goes for Mahloof. This is the problem with having politicians running the FAM. It's not about football anymore, it's having people of the same political party showcasing their might and power to the rest of the country, while they take their salaries home without doing anything.

Congratulations Mahloof. İt's really sad that the manager of the team is an MP. Isnt there anyone else besides an MP or someone from MNDF who can manage the national side?
