It's now approaching the October internationals and we have the month off of World cup qualifiers.
We have a friendly against Japan on Saturday which will be used to tinker around with some changes and formations to see which will work best against South Korea in November.
I plan to call up some uncapped players to see what talent is at my disposal within the country. I have been watching some Al-Ittihad, Al-Hilal and Al-Ittifaq games to see the players and some have impressed.
I will be giving some of the regulars a rest and others are out due to injury. Mohammed Noor is a doubt due to injury which gives me the option of calling up an uncapped left sided winger in his place. I have also been considering calling up players who are eligable for Saudi Arabia for this game. I have two Holland-based players both born in Saudi Arabia in line.
The game against Japan will be a test for the young players as they pit their wits against one of the strongest sides in Asia. A test I am egar to see how they cope.
