This comes as sudden news to everyone, yet not everyone is shocked. A majority had already foreseen this move due to the Singapore lions' under-performance and a similar state of discipline, 2 reasons which were, not surprisingly, the push for what the governing body has done. However, there is now an on-going debate on whether having the entire team sacked was the best move. It was argued that only certain players in the team should be met with such fate while the rest stayed on. Understandably, this was due to some key players within the team that did nothing wrong, but are still brought down by the rest who were guilty of the charges.
I agree with them and do feel this big overhaul was too much, and that some players truly did not deserve such a fate. On a side note, I am against the people who say that the coach is the one responsible for the team's lackluster performance. Despite the team's recent lackluster performance during the Asian games and matches after, the coach had done very well overall, and therefore that counts more to me.
However, with the move already being made, most people are now theorizing the next set of players that will be representing Singapore after this big reset. Many people, such as myself, have pointed the finger at the young Singapore lions that did very well during the Youth Olympic Games. Their performance was the best i have seen Singapore play on an international stage, disregarding their age and their 3rd place finishing. To me, It would be no surprise that many or even all the players who brought us national glory during the YOG will represent us once again.
