From Toni Datkovic's defensive steel to Sergio Carmona's Spanish finesse and of course former PSV star, Bart Ramselaar, these are not just game-changers on the field but catalysts for unity in the locker room.

The Singapore Youth League (SYL) has been the talk of the town in recent weeks. It kicked off on 24 Feb 2024 with some touting it as a "game changer". The SYL is a national football project that will feature players from the Under-8 to Under-17 categories.
This initiative under the Unleash the Roar umbrella, is a massive project that has received praise as well as its fair share of criticism so far. I sat down with FAS' Head of Planning, Technical Division, Baihaki Khaizan, to dissect the project and posed some pertinent questions.
The biggest takeaway for me personally from the conversation - the willingness to accept criticism/feedback and to make changes if necessary to make the SYL a success moving forward.
A “game changer” it is not, but certainly a welcome addition to the Singapore football ecosystem.
