Squad
Goalkeepers: Mohd Shahril Shaa'ri, Mohd Fakhrurazi Musa, Mohd Sharmiza Yusoff, Mohd Sharbinee Allawee
Defenders : Mohd Faizal Muhammad, Mohd Muhaimin Omar, Mohd Muslim Ahmad, Hasmizan Kamaroddin, Mazlizam Mohammad, Mohd Zubir Azmi, Mohd Marzuki Yusoff, Hariri Mohd Saifi, Wan Fahmi Afandi Wan Ali, Ahmad Takhiyuddin Roslan, Che Haiqal Che Salam
Midifielders : Reesyafiq Alwi, Abdul Shukur Jusoh, Ismail Faruqi Asha'ri, Shamsul Kamal Mohd, Joseph Kallang Tie, Ahmad Nordin Alias, Mohd Ashaari Shamsuddin, Tercio Nunes Machado, Nor Ikhwan Alias
Strikers : Abdul Hadi Yahya, Mohd Ailim Fahmi, Abdul Manaf Mamat, Mahamadou Suamareh, Rahmat Hassan
Team Manager: Mat Zan Mat Aris
Team Coach : Mat Zan Mat Aris
Team President: Datuk Che Mat Jusoh
One of the most consistent sides in the Malaysian league, the East Coast side will be hellbent on winning the Super League this season. Having won the FA cup last season, the team is currently led by Mat Zan Mat Aris as Irfan Bakti has moved on to Selangor. Impressing last season, they have the capability to be consistent the whole season.
With the core of the squad remaining, players like Abdul Hadi Yahya, Ashaari Shamsuddin, Abdul Manaf Mamat, Marzuki Yusoff, and Ismail Faruqi will have what it takes to bring this side closer to the title. Having nearly toppled Kelantan in the Super League, these players have been playing together for the past three years.
Mat Zan has gotten a formidable squad from Irfan Bakti and he has since added youngsters into the side. Harimau Muda's seasoned lads, Abdul Shukor Jusoh, Muslim Ahmad and Faizal Muhammad will surely be providing competition for their seniors as their exploits with Harimau Muda has been well documented and Mat Zan knows, he has got three gems in his hands.
Terengganu is known for its sturdy defence, reliable midfield and fluid attacking and with the players that they have, it is bound to continue. With Muslim coming in to partner Marzuki and Shukor Jusoh partnering Ismail Faruqi, things are bound to get interesting for Terengganu.
However, their foreign signings are left much to be desired as they have opted for veteran, Tercio Nunes Machado and 19 year old Gambian, Mahamadou Suamareh. Tercio, who has played in the Malaysian league before with KL Plus looks likely to be the architect for the team but at the age of 33, age might not be kind on his side. Suamareh, who only got the call after Sibi Gwar couldn't sign his contract, will be interesting prospect but in this league, proven pedigree is important.
Terengganu will be looking forward for next season's challenge as they have assembled their squad and they look strong for the title. Their challengers would surely be Kelantan and Selangor as these 2 teams have made significant changes to mount a serious challenge for the title.
Team verdict: Favourites - Watch out for this team, with three Harimau Muda players on board, things are bound to get interesting
Player to watch: Muslim Ahmad - Watch out for his combination with MarzukiYusoff. A seasoned veteran and a budding prospect, Terengganu fans will surely be savouring the prospects of a moutwatering defense.
