Flanked by his agent, Chai accepted Bakunin's shock move more calmly than one might expect from a player whom just a few seasons ago was touted as the club's future Ma Dai-Lin. That title however has long been usurped by current fan darling Aznan Noor Yadah, who does in fact look far more natural inheriting Dai-Lin's wing legacy than Yew-Hoe ever did. Chai freely concurs with that statement. The development of Swede Tellskar and the discovery of Zhan Ju-Hau, Shen Tek-Tjiang and Asher Stanton, all of whom were considered to be better in raw ability, dimmed his star further. "I would be fighting desperately for a spot among teammates of such calibre." Yew-Hoe said. "Leaving would be the right thing to do." But wouldn't the situation be worse at Poziomkowa, a team with a mythical midfield and which includes, among others, such luminaries as $8 million rated Andreas Henriksson and $3 million homegrown hero Lucjusz Karp? "True, I may not be in the first team for ages to come, but just to train with such superstars would be most beneficial. Even most S-League teams do not boast such strength in my department, so the move is most fortuitous."
