RedSportsXI – 1,222 readers cast over 5,009 votes to choose their best 11 A Division footballers

RedSportsXI

POLLS CLOSED MIDNIGHT, FRIDAY, MAY 23.

Hi football fans and players,

The poll is over and before we get into the best 11 players, I must add that this poll is the most popular on Red Sports so far. As with all reader-generated polls, controversy abounds. Some have said the top 11 are not the best and are just a reflection of their popularity in school and mobilisation efforts by their friends. Well, so be it. No poll is perfect and if the best 11 were just picked by me and a couple of coaches, what’s the fun in that yeah? I’d rather let you guys do the picking.

So, here’s the RedSportsXI based on the votes:

Pierson Ang (#20, goalkeeper, Anglo-Chinese JC)

Adam Yuu Douglas (#26, defender, Anglo-Chinese JC)
Khairil (#23, defender, Meridian JC)
Gavin Lee (#13, defender, Victoria JC)
Fazli (#7, right-back, Meridian JC)

Mohamed Aswad (#10, midfielder, Millenia Institute)
Mahdi (#23, midfielder, Meridian JC)
Nathaniel (#12, centre midfielder, St Andrew’s JC)
Muhd Afrizal (#19, left winger, Jurong JC)

Alex (#10, striker, Victoria JC)
Chong Kuo Loon (#17, striker, St Andrew's JC)

So six schools have representatives on the RedSportsXI team. I think that’s a nice spread of schools and shows that no school has succeeded in spamming the poll in any great way. It also shows that there is talent spread out across the schools, players whose skills have impressed a wider selection of readers.

Out of curiosity, I decided I would list the next 11 players by vote. So here they are:

Alfred Yue (#1, GOALKEEPER, Jurong JC)

Lim Jun Liang (#5, defender, Victoria JC)
Matthew, (#3, defender, Meridian JC)
Warrick Wee (#7, right-back, Anglo-Chinese JC)
Luo Yu Kai (#18, centre-back, Anglo-Chinese JC)

Cedric Goh (#8, centre midfielder, Anglo-Chinese JC)
Nicholas Kang (#17, left winger, Victoria JC)
Jeremy Ong (#2, midfielder, St Andrew's JC)
Chester Lum (#16, midfielder, Victoria JC)

Anders Aplin (#9, striker, Victoria JC)
Daniel Kao (#14, striker, Anglo-Chinese JC)

If anyone can tell me what position Irwin Goh (#14, position?, St Andrew's JC) plays, he might warrant a position in the second RedSportsXI. I’ve left him out in the meantime because I don’t have that information.

So there you have it, the two best teams at A Division level according to the readers. Now, I don’t know about you, but I would pay good money to watch these two teams play. And if got to pick my players, I would add someone like Augustus Set (#7, midfielder) of St Andrew’s in my team cos that guy plays beautiful football. Augustus was a very late addition in the poll because he wasn’t nominated early by readers.

Although I only got to watch the semi-finals of the A Division, I was struck by the level of skill on display. It was a joy to watch. Also what was missing was all the nonsense you see from the English Premier League – diving, trying to get opponents sent off, arguing with the referee. Most players conducted themselves with decorum, dignity and manliness. My hats off to you.

So now, if you guys really want to watch RedSportsXI (A) vs RedSportsXI (B), and the players really want to play that game, hey, let me know. Maybe we can form a committee with 3 to 4 people and get this executed. I’m not doing this alone, that’s for sure!

Red Sports. Always Game.

    I’m not sure I understand your question but let me explain.

    You can check off against a maximum 11 players’ names.

    You then click submit.

    If you check off only, say, 5 names, then submit your vote, the server will lock you out and you can’t come back tomorrow and vote again.

    uncle les, what will the format be like at the end of the voting period? will u be doing a 4-4-2 formation and then place the names to the position? or will the top 11 be mostly strikers?

35. 35
    les Says:
    April 26th, 2008 at 10:06 am

    To Alex Fan – I have no reason to doubt that the there is something wrong with the polling code. Let’s give it a few days? His numbers will go up, I am sure, as more people vote for him. I’ve used this polling code for the netball, volleyball, basketball and picture of the year contests and so far, it’s ok.

    As for dunga’s query, the top 11 by POSITION will make up the 4-4-2 formation.

    if votes are to be made on the basis of performances, then the current line-up that has been voted thus far shouldn’t stand.

    great individual performers frm rjc and even sajc have been left out and i guess it’s becos they arent doing well as a team. if thats the case, then we should actually vote for even the injured, based on their reputation. and if i was the only one voting, it would go like this ;

    GK : ACJC’s
    Defender : ACJC’s no. 26, NJC’s no.4, MJC’s no.8
    Midfielder: NJC’s no. 9 and SAJC’s captain.
    Striker : too many!

    ya… i think that the polls are not really accurate. Within JJ soccer team itself, some bench player have more votes than what my friends and i think are quality players

    Some players with more than 10 votes doesn’t even exist in A Division football.

    come on people vote for JJC player like Zachary, Kok Yao, Harrison and Brian. These are the quality players of JJC…I am very proud of them when i see them playing together.

    How come no coverage on B Division and C Division tournament?
    The best players are palying in these tournament and not this overhyped A Division tournament. Lets face it, most of our future National players are playing in the B and C Tournament. Really would like to see more coverage for these players as they are growing up and lighting up the school soccer scene rather then reading about future accountants, doctors, lawyers etc masquerading as soccer players (some cant even kick the ball properly)

    During my time in the 80s, when the VIs(Now called the ITEs) participated in the A Division, you will barely see any JC in the Q-F of the Nationals A Division (for a JC to qualify for the Nationals is already a big deal)

57. 57
    les Says:
    April 28th, 2008 at 5:56 pm

    How come nobody sends stories on B Division and C Division tournaments?

    This is a reader-generated site. If nobody sent it in, it’s probably nobody can be bothered.

    And please, don’t put the JC folks down by accusing them of masquerading. I won’t stand for people putting other groups down on this site.

    The irony of your accusation is obviously lost on you since you are masquerading as Zizou.

    Unless it IS really you, Zizou … If it’s really you, we are honoured.

    If you are just a Singaporean masquerading as a frenchman, then please, stop hounding the A DIvision boys.

    to the JJC fan who left his comment previously…

    If i never remember wrongly the guy by the name of kok yao played against us on our first game. I thought he was quite good from the way i saw him fight tt day… he never gave up and almost came close to scoring. I heard from my soccer friends in the team, they said that he is a great player but didnt perform. Don’t feel offended jjc fan…i just saying my opinion. JJ has a great team from what i see. I oso rmb the no 7 winger and 25 African and his bro…all superb player and the no. 7 is one hot guy i heard. Who is Chan Peng Xiang anw is he really in the team?? Y harrison’s and Kok yao’s vote count so little, i think they both deserve more

    soccer freak from jj Says:

    to jjc fan who left ur comment earlier

    From what i saw tt day…is kok yao the # 10 striker of ur school?? if he is than i think there must be sth wrong with the coach and the team for leaving him on the bench. My friends from ACJC almost thought that he is the key man of JJ. Is he injured so become bench player?? He was the man i was so afraid of watching when he got the ball…so threatening on the attack. The #7 and #25 as well. But ACJC is the best. GO AC…

    HAHA ZIZOU IF U GOT YOUR FACTS RIGHT HWACHONG WON ONCE EVEN WHEN THE ‘VI’s or ITEs were in the competition. it was 10 years back if u remember. so thanks but no thanks, B div maybe a little less stamina, aggression and maturity. if you want to look at national team players maybe just head on down to the sports school for the u16 and u17 or clementi for u18 or maybe if u dare, jalan besar stadium for the real young lions. If the standards too high for you b div boys maybe go learn from the COE (centre of excellence) some even plying their trade in the A div

    zizou has got a point there. if u notice,giving credit when due that other then MJ and SA when they are ABLE TO PASS THE BAL PROPERLY, most of the other jcs are pathethic when it comes to soccer. kick run push fall.

    yes B division football is definitely less physical compared to A but if you look at the technical aspect… A div players or rather MOST of them have problems passing and stopping the ball. anybody can just be physically fit and strong and go around chasing the ball. but playing the game is a whole new thing.

    of course there are exceptional players in the division which nobody can deny…but the rest…i still feel that they are not able to match up to the technical standard of the B division.

    hi guys i’m a huge soccer fan and from what i’ve observed,sajc’s #7,17,12 and acjc’s #26 are right up there amongst the best footballers in a div.

    and from what i’ve observed as well, only jjc’s nigerian striker,kokyao and ian chang are capable being voted in a div’s top 11.however,kokyao’s poor stamina and form have kept him on the bench for the last few matches thus i believe he’s out of the running.#7 from jjc is a fast runner but he’s not capable of putting in a worthy cross and his technique needs much improvement.kudos to his workrate and spirit tho..

73. 73
    an avid jc soccer fan Says:
    April 29th, 2008 at 9:12 pm

    and to ‘ jjc’,kokyao’s a really good striker but he needs better support from jjc players.

    oh,technique wise you guys gotta have a look at sajc’s #7.he’s simply the paul scholes of a div football.

    if you only have stamina but no skill you still suck what. like the acjc no. 22 can only run. the best midfielders i’ve seen so far in this tournament are acjc no. 8 and sajc no. 12.

    Comments from readers like “an avid jc soccer fan” and “soccercraze” above are reasonable, balanced and rational.

    why dont you address to all of us who you really are
    stop being a coward
    you may comment on players from the jj team
    but do not insult them
    i am sure you are not up to the level where you can judge people from the stands
    because i am sure when you are put in the spot, you sure cant play for nuts.

    PPl…i know i had a bad game against TJC missing at 6 yard box and many one on ones. To those who have watched be play before, i know i am underperforming in the A div. But i believe everyone have their offdays or season. I know tt many of u think that from my performance against TJC, i am pretty lousy. But ur can say all u want and they will not affect my play. I still believe in myself and where i stand in the A div. If u seroiulsy think tt i dun fit to wear the JJ jersey…come to me, i pass u my jersey and u play in my place. There have been diff view abt me as a player, be it whether they are positive or negative. i will take them as ppl offering me ways tt i can improve and nt insult. Thnx to all who defended me and still show faith in me and thnx uncle les for protecting me.

    TO jjc.

    come on la whoever you are..who are you to say that kok yao likes to brag about his skills? theres a difference between confidence and bragging. what kok yao does has got nothing to do with what he says. apparently it seems like you’ve never played soccer before eh.

    try playing with the intense pressure of trying to score and the expectation of an entire school for you to score, playing in front of so many fans. lets see if you can even kick the ball let alone put it in the net from the six yard box.

    I commend Kok Yao for coming in here, stating his name for the world to see with courage and dignity, and making a statement that shows he is a man of humility and courage.

    It is not easy to stand before an anonymous mob to speak.

    At the end of the day, it is the man who takes the field with courage who is admired, and not those who sit in the stands and throw stones from the shadows.

    So good on you, Kok Yao.

It doesn’t show that he is a lousy player. With all the pressure and stress, mistakes will be made. We are TEAM JJ. So jjc, if u do not support ur own school, screw off. Dont come and insult others.

    And Kokyao, don worry. Take it as an experience. I dono whether you bragging or just having a lot of confidence, but whatever it is, do ur best to get ur goals… haha..

    Hey…stop firing comments at kok yao. Everyone knows tt he is the top striker of JJ but really underperforming. Although i am dissappointed nt to see him do his trademark finishing(scoring) but i believe it comes with a reason. Has anyone of you playing in the A div this season experience the pain of playing football when you just lost someone so close to you. I think the chances are slim but unfortunately it happened to one of our stars, kok yao. His grandfather passed away two games into the A div and i believe tt really affected him. So stop firing comments at him especially those hurtful ones. Keep trying KY i’ll always be supporting you. GO….

Knowing tt u are the hope tt is gonna bring qualification to the team puts one under alot of pressure. TT happens at times and in this case to Kok Yao. So instead of insulting him i think the JJ fans should show him some encouragement to put him back on the track for his last game agst NJC this coming FRI. Gd luck team JJ i am proud of all of you.

    in my opinion some of the benched jj players like kokyao are good enough to earn a place in the starting eleven. however they are left on the benched because because of the coach’s selection policy. i believe that players from other schools have witnessed for themselves the quality that these players possess even though they have not been given much playing time. in my opinion, kokyao looks dangerous everytime he’s on the ball and has great control, offering much threat to the opponents. another jj player also came off the bench against acjc and crashed a freekick against the crossbar, being only centimetres away from an equalising goal. these players are great players and have been mostly impactful when brought on and have injected more life in the team. its a pity that players of their calibre are left on the bench.

    Yes, it is true that any reader voting contest has an element of popularity to it. The only way to make it purely about football would be to have 2-3 football coaches sit down and pick the best 11.

    That of course has its problems because readers will say the coaches are biased and have their favourites (who doesn’t).

    And anyway, there is no fun in that. More fun to let everyone have their say rather than 3 old men making the decisions, right?

    So have fun voting and try not to insult each other to death. The whole point of this exercise is to give student footballers in Singaopre some recognition.

    I think A div football is less on skill but more on desire. Look at the likes of RJ last year, they ran their guts off and despite being technically deficient they got their reward.

    I feel many teams would do much better had more tenacity and desire. I think ACJC are playing above themselves, when you look at their individual ability, i dont think they are as good as many JJ players with the exception of their key players. But they know what they are playing for and it shows through their results. Had other JCs have the history/tradition/heritage of ACS and Raffles, they would certainly fight doubly hard.

    So for the likes of those not ‘deserving’ of being in the top11, they make it up with their effort.

    birdwatcher Says:
    May 1st, 2008 at 8:38 pm

    So the consensus have been that Kokyao’s been really off form this year?yes,how could anyone reject this claim?To someone who used to be able to finish with aplomb,missing from 6 yard(not just once mind you..) is simply unacceptable.It seems that his place in jjc’s starting lineup is no longer certain and he’s displaced by a certain #14 striker.and lest you think that number 14 is a really skillful player,you’re wrong.he’s just a fighter of the ball and wins aerial challenges(think drogba,but with the skills of a primary 6 boy).So to all defenders of Kokyao,would you all disagree that kokyao’s been playing out of sorts this year?

    and i’m not someone who knows kokyao personally and this is not a personal attack.i’m actually someone who’s really disapointed with the way kokyao failed to show his true potential to teh school and allowed his schoolmates to make a laughing stock out of him

    To birdwatcher.

    I agree with you. It’s realli irritating that a good striker gets off form when u need him. Esp when he misses from the 6 yard box! But let’s juz be disappointed for a few seconds after his mistake and continue to support him. After all he is already down when he misses that shot. What he needs is for people to encourage him.

    SO Kokyao, after so much… u are left with one game to prove everyone here wrong. All the best.

     i think acjc have quality players despite only 2 appeals and no dsa. and i can be seen with their wins over respectful teams such as njc and rjc as mentioned by jonnie. they have good discipline as well, i think the only way to judge them is to go watch their matches.

     winning 7 games in a row DOES NOT MEAN YOU ARE GOOD IT MEANS YOU ARE CONSISTENT…a very good example of consistency is chelsea.and johnnie, in case if its the first time you ever watched or played soccer, so what if nj and rj have good players? can 1 person win the entire game on his own? its a whole team effort in case you did not know.. so yes i applaude acjc soccer for consistency and overall team dynamics BUT I STILL AGREE with hardcorefan. although vj probably wont thrash acjc because acjc wont go down without a fight….and for T^2 maybe whay acjc soccer seems so awesome to you is because you’ve never watched other teams play?

     and i think this year’s A’div soccer teams have got really really good players this year. be it AC, VJ, SA, or whicever school, the various school teams should be commended on their performance and not be railed upon by people on any forum such as this like tat.

     All star game sounds good! Dividing them up will be interesting… IF we do a All star East vs West.

     VJ and MJ are clearly in the east. IfSA fall in there too….the Eastern all stars might become overwhelmingly strong. The west would have AC,MI and maybe RJ. Would the west side schools bring enough balance to hold up against the easterners? It would be a mouth watering match though.

     to “ball” there’s no need to be over sensitive about my comment. You failed to see that what I was trying to say is an all star match is a great idea, just not one that would consist of the “best 11 A div players” that were voted here. So you see, I already agree with you that there is biasness as the votes are from the public,. you just failed to see that. To “soccerfan”, your idea of a group A vs. group B all stars is a great idea, better than East vs. West.

     As for organising the game, I think the players would have to express their personal interest to me first before I would even contemplating organising anything.

     I would also need 4-5 volunteers on the organising committee.

     So players, if you are interested, you can express your interest by leaving a note in this comments section and emailing me at les@redsports.sg

     uncle les,i think it’d be great if like you sent a letter to the schools of these players and inform them about your intention to organise this game.and im sure the school would support the idea and get the player to participate and im sure the students would also be informed and they;d be more than interested to come and watch the game.im sure this would work.because maybe some of these players may not even know such a poll exisits.

     I think this year may not be realistic. To organise this requires a few months of planning to do it right, so if you are interested to help out, you can sign up for the working committee for next year.

     but uncle les,all the good players are in the team..they might not be playing in A DIV nxt yr..seriously,the redsports XI is a really strong team except maybe agustus from SA shud replace that afrizal guy.i really wanna see mahdi and aswad terrorising defences with their wingplay and alex and kuoloon finishing thee chances.its a really superb attacking team.please please organise a game.im sure they would even be willing to play end of the year.so yea.lets not let this chance pass us by.

     Aiyah, you guys still going on about this.

     There are two things I will do for you:

     a. get a sponsor for the jerseys

     b. cover the game

     The volunteer committee – no one has volunteered by the way – has to do the following:

     a. contact all players

     b. arrange the pitch

     c. arrange for refs

     Like I mentioned, I can’t do it on my own. If you guys REALLY want to see this happen, then, we need some action here.

     I will only go and look for a sponsor only if there is a firm commitment on your part.

     You can email me at les@redsports.sg if you can form a committee of 3-4 people to spread the work around.

     Also, if you contact the players, it obviously cannot just be 11 players. You will need a squad of about 18-20 players and allow unlimited subs for the game so that everyone gets to play. No point coming down and sitting on the bench.

     hmmm.. okay.. uncle les, how do we go about getting the subs? i mean.. how to choose? think players like gus should be in either squad A or B. hes not even in it considering the skills hes got so yea..

239. 239
     les Says:
     June 1st, 2008 at 9:17 pm

     The easiest way to get subs would be to take the next 8 players based on votes.

     As for Gus, I think nobody would object to him taking a slot in either team cos he obviously deserves to be there.
