The former coach of the national football team, Dr. Abdullah Mesfer, confirmed that Al-Abyadh will not be harmed by the recent decision issued by the Football Association in coordination with the Professional League and the competent authorities in the country to postpone the start of the new sports season 2020-2021 to next October instead of this September as was scheduled from Before, pointing out that if the AFC had not decided to postpone the joint qualifiers for the 2022 World Cup and the AFC Asian Cup 2023, the national team would have been the most affected by the decision to postpone the start of the season, pointing out that the Colombian national team coach, Jorge Luis Pinto, must hold periodic gatherings for the team from time to time. To another, even if it is for a period of between three to five days in order to reassure his players and stand on their readiness on the physical and tactical sides, so that he is close to them and so that the coach's departure from the national team is not prolonged, given that this makes the preparation process difficult in the coming periods, warning At the same time, any new postponement of the sports season will harm everyone, especially the national team, as well as the clubs, especially those participating in the Asian championships.

Abdullah Misfer told Emirates Today: “The coaching staff, led by Pinto, has enough time to work comfortably, but this matter must be thoughtful and according to specific programs, especially in the wake of the decision to postpone the joint qualifiers for the World Cup and the Asian Cup until next year. ».

He explained, "The team is supposed to have a specific program of gatherings and play friendly matches on FIFA days, especially with teams, and if this is not available, it is better to compensate for that with internal training from time to time."

The national team had participated in an external preparation camp in Serbia that included 28 players before it was forced to cut it due to the sudden decision by the Asian Football Confederation to postpone the joint World Cup and Asian Cup qualifiers until 2021, noting that the team had initiated the new coach Binto's reign with two internal preparation camps in Al Ain. .

Mesfer stressed the importance of the team's maximum benefit from the decision to postpone the joint qualifiers by rearranging its accounts and papers again, with the aim of reviving its chances of competing strongly for the 2022 World Cup qualification card.

The new sports season was scheduled to start on the third of September with the Arab Gulf Cup competition, but it was postponed to next October.

Abdullah Misfer pointed out that postponing the start of the sports season is in the interest of the clubs, but the process of damage lies in the issue of continuous change in the preparation programs, which negatively affects the loads of physical and tactical readiness of players, considering that the postponement is generally imposed by the public interest of everyone, pointing out Most of the clubs will benefit from the postponement decision, since most of them did not reach the required readiness stage, after the long suspension of sporting activity since March 15th.

Misfer added, "The clubs 'lack of readiness for the new season has a negative impact on the national team, as it depends on the clubs players' readiness."

Mesfer indicated that most of the clubs are satisfied with the decision to postpone the start of the new season until next October, given that their preparations for the season were not good and did not have enough opportunity to play friendly matches to stand on the readiness of their players.

Postponement is in the interests of clubs, but the harm is the constant change of preparation programs.

Any postponement will harm the national team and the clubs participating in the Asian Championships.
