'On the right track'

Al Musabbir Sadi
.As the qualification battle for a place in the AFC Challenge Cup finals gets nearer, new Bangladesh head coach Edson Dido' Silva is putting pressure on the gas pedal to prepare the team for his first assignment.
The Brazilian has entered the second week of training with his charges, who will compete with Myanmar. Cambodia and Macau or Mongolia in the Group A qualifiers in Dhaka from April 26.
The first week belonged to Ariel Coleman, the Argentine trainer who is back to Bangladesh for the second time after having served the national team under his compatriot Diego Cruciani who led Bangladesh to finish runners-up in the 2005 SAF Championship in Pakistan.
Coleman, who signed a one-year contract with the Bangladesh Football Federation (BFF) last month, worked on fitness of the players in the first week. The trainer, who had taken little time to prepare the boys well during his first stint in 2005. looks satisfied with the players' current condition. With most of the players having just completed the domestic season, everyone looks more or less in shape.
The only worry for Coleman as well as Dido is the main striking pair Zahid Hasan Emily and Hedaytullah Robin who have yet to join their teammates in full-fledged training.
Robin missed the latter part of the B. League due to injury and played the Super Cup for eventual winners Mohammedan with less than 50 per cent fitness.
On the other hand, country's top striker Emily, who played a major role behind Abahani s B. League glory for the second time in succession and also emerged as the Super Cup's most valuable player, picked up a hamstring injury during the final in the very first minute.
He has yet to join full training but it was learned that the team's new physio is hopeful about his recovery speed although Robin's chances look remote. Both the strikers are attending gym everyday though their mates are scheduled for three to four sessions per week.
The players, meanwhile, got into tactical sessions in the second week with Dido starting to put his own thoughts into their minds.
Shafiqul Islam Manik, the national coach who is working as Dido's assistant, thinks that this part of the preparation is very crucial.
"This is when Dido teaches them his manual. As far as I have seen, Dido looks to be practically a very top-class coach," Manik opined.
"But the players have to be on top of their physical condition — it means totally fit — to do what the coach wants. May be the four week's time we have is not enough for the players to fully realise the coach's demands. It is also good to see the rapport between Dido and Ariel, both can speak Spanish, which is very important to achieve our goals."
Like all Brazilian coaches, Dido will go for a 4-4-2 forma- tion but whether he uses two holding midfielders or less, will depend on players' quality. To find the right combination, he needs to play two international friendlies but has yet to get any confirmation.
The BFF has already invited Nepal to play two matches in Dhaka did not get any answer from the All Nepal Football Association so far.
Dido has also been successful in the short time to bring discipline in the camp and change the hooters' food habit. The players’ area has already been restricted to media and other people as after two sessions daily, they need the break
"They are playing indoor games in short breaks and with the team staff working as a unit, we have managed to create a good environment surrounding them." said Manik "The facilities are satisfactory and we are on the right track If we get the right assistance and time for preparation, we hope to get where we want to go."
