SHAH ALAM: We’ve heard many complain of Malaysia having first-class facilities and third-class mentality. That could apply in football as well, says Dutch coach Robert Alberts. Malaysia, he says, has top-notch organisation but a poor football culture.
Alberts, who has coached many clubs in the South-East Asian region, shared his thoughts on the difference between Malaysian and Indonesian football, before he leads his young charges from Persib Bandung in the Selangor Asia Challenge, which starts today at the Shah Alam Stadium.
