The most dangerous message that can reach the players is the coach’s lack of confidence in the weapons he possesses, and this is proven by the statements and actions of the national team’s technical director, Hussein Amouta, with Al-Nashama.

The coach, who had few substitutions, sent an indirect message to the players against Pakistan stating that he would not rely on a limited group of players, while players have sat on the bench since the Asian Cup until now without playing a minute.

For the technical director to insist on relying on 11 players and not to make changes except in cases of forced absence is a message of frustration to the players and a demolition of an entire generation sitting on the bench, and even the players in the Olympic team who are impatiently waiting for any opportunity to be part of the national team squad.

It is noted that the technical director does not use the bench except in very rare cases and in the last moments, and this brings back the question about the flexibility of the technical director, his search for solutions, the effectiveness of managing the match, and the use of his cunning as a technical director to change the style of play according to the circumstances of the match and the need or change in the result.

What is more dangerous than that is the lack of trust between the coach and the bench. His statement to the sports channel after the loss to Bahrain about the lack of substitutions and substitutes was one of the most dangerous statements, especially with that laugh and smile that carries many interpretations.
