JAKARTA – – Football observer Tommy Welly revealed that the current Indonesian National Team Coach, Shin Tae-yong (STY), is lazy about monitoring League 1. He said, this is because STY feels that PSSI is fully backing it up by preparing naturalized or Indonesian-blooded players according to request. STY.
Apart from that, Bung Towel, Tommy Welly's nickname, said the coach from South Korea was handsome.
“He seemed to feel most needed. Maybe because he understands that netizens are behind him. How come? After the 2023 Asian Cup last January, STY criticized the Indonesian League. Ask for the league to be repaired,” said Bung Towel to reporters, Sunday (17/3/2024).
“Ironically, when League 1 started again in early February,” continued Bung Towel. STY instead chose to go home for a holiday. At the same time carrying out his “side job” as Chairman of the Seongnam FC Advisory Committee. STY's first task for his former club was to promote Seongnam membership cards.
“You could say, STY is too lazy to hang out with League 1 matches directly at the stadiums. So don't be surprised, if there is no new name from the national team squad called STY to face the continuation of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers, 'back to back' against Vietnam, at GBK “Senayan Jakarta (21/3) and My Dinh Hanoi Stadium (26/3). In short, it's the same thing again. Players who have always been liked and are STY's favorites,” said Bung Towel.
Bung Towel also thinks that STY is not embarrassed by calling Nadeo Argawinata. Even though STY parked the goalkeeper from Borneo FC because he was considered less calm than Syahrul Trisna.
“Because he was still in his hometown and lazy about monitoring League 1, STY seemed to have turned a blind eye to goalkeeper Adi Satryo's (PSIS) amateur blunders when he conceded Persib's second goal in Week 26 on February 27. Persib's third goal against PSIS was also there. “assist contribution from defender Wahyu Prasetyo. Ironically, the two players, Adi Satryo and Wahyu Prasetyo, are still called by STY to join the national team squad. Basically it's up to STY. It has nothing to do with performance in League 1,” he said
Naturalized STY Weapons
Bung Towel emphasized that STY's weapons and moves were only naturalized. So when he arrived in Jakarta after his holiday, STY immediately flew to the Netherlands, Belgium and Italy to monitor naturalized players. Regarding this naturalization, fortunately PSSI has full back up. PSSI is very responsive.
STY's desire for Thom Haye, Ragnar Oratmangoen and Nathan Tjoe A-On to be naturalized immediately was immediately accelerated. DPR RI matters, taking oaths, KTPs, passports and transferring federations are carried out in the shortest possible manner. Even the oath-taking for Nathan Tjoe A-On took place at the TPI Soekarno Hatta Special Class I Immigration (Kanim) Office, Monday (11/3) evening.
