COMMENT - good too see Semen Padang's Nur Iskandar earn a call up...a reward for his good work over the last few seasons and also perhaps proof there is life outside of the usual places in Indonesian football.

But why Bachdim? No disrespect to the lad but he has hardly set the football world alight, has he? He had a year in Thailand which never worked out and is now in Japan as some sort of tourist ambassador yet he is in the national team?

It is a bit of a smack in the mouth for players like Yongki Aribowo and Jajang Maulyana, local lads whose careers began promisingly but have been constantly overlooked by domestic teams who nearly all seem to prefer a big strong foreign striker and therefore have seen their careers basically stagnate, moving from club to club and spending way too much time on the bench.

In England, as in Indonesia. Focus too much on foreign players and your national team will suffer. Something to remember bearing in mind all the hype over the current Under 19 team
