Although I feel a little disappointed with the performance of our national team in the recent friendly matches, I believe this is not the time to pressurize any player to quit. Rather, we suit try our best to help our players to do well in the competition. Like what I did was to annotate some of ruizhan's games and point out his weakness in non mainstream opening so that he can work on it. Although I do not think that our national team will get into top 6 this year, I do hope they inflict a few upsets to those traditional strong team.
I feel that once the rules are set, be it selecting the representatives with 7 or 9rounds, we should not change them last minute. However, if this year Singapore do not do well. I hope xiangzhong might want to review the selection criteria. Actually I think that the selection method used 2 years ago was quite good. If this year Singapore do not do well, its not the fault of the players, but the fault of SIXGA and coach.
