Top 10 captain of Singapore
-
Chia Keng Hock: The original Bomber reigned from the mid-30's to in the War years. Tall, big and strong, his shots were unsavable. A hat-trick specialist.
Awang Bakar: The name spelt terror in the 1950's. An opportunist striker with unorthodox shooting and heading. He did nothing but score -- from any angle.
Chia Boon Leong: Tiny "Twinkletoes" was rated as the best inside-left in Malaya and China in the 50's. Unselfish creator of goals -- mostly for Awang Bakar
Rahim Omar: Classic striker of the 60's. A wizard blessed with deft skill, thunderbolt shots and pace. Acclaimed as first banana specialist in the region.
Quah Kim Swee: Speed demon of the 1960's whose fearless flying headers had left him with long scar on his forehead till today. Most feared winger in his time.
Majid Ariff: Midfield mastermind of the 60's. His flawless distribution was always incisive and penetrative. Only S'porean to represent Asian All-Stars.
Lee Kok Seng: Acclaimed as greatest post-war centre-half and captain of all captains. Singapore skipper for 11 years times from late 1950's to mid 60's.
Quah Kim Song: (See photo above right) Darling of the 70's. Fast, fearless and quick-thinking winger who wreaked havoc in the penalty area. Last and most famous of the footballing Quahs.
Dollah Kassim: (As pictured left) Dribbler extraordinare of the 70s. The "Gelek" king could take on three, four, five men in one breath-taking sweep. Superb pace and acceleration.
Fandi Ahmad: Idol of the 80's. Talented finisher whose acrobatic volleys and instinctive style make him a living legend. Acclaimed as God's gift to football.
