   I'm just curious to know if anyone knows how good he is as a footballer?

   Yes, football, the outdoor game, not futsal, as it's quite clear that he is main man in the futsal national team. He's this year's top scorer in the AFF Futsal Championship with six goals. Back in February during the AFC Futsal Championship qualifiers, he was also the top scorer and has been a mainstay in the futsal national for a few years now.

   So again, anyone know if he's just as good in football? I would think that he is since futsal is a great foundation to becoming a good footballer and if he is any good perhaps he should get a shot in the national football team. Especially since there aren't any quality strikers around.

   He plays for Kaya FC and teammate with Aly Borromeo. Theyre the top team to beat in the UFL league. Dont know how good he is for his club, but im sure that if he was good enough he wouldve been called up already for the MNT and im sure that MNT captain would recommend him if he was outstanding for Kaya. He is still young though, so he has the future ahead. But also from what ive seen in other national teams in futsal is that most players arent players from top leagues.

   And youre right. There arent any quality strikers around right now.

   Ya I noticed that he does play Kaya now. If I'm not mistaken he's around 23. There have been younger players who have been called up and and made an appearance for the national team before. It could be argued that some of those players aren't as good to begin with. And for a player(Bahadoran) that has a futsal based footballing background compared to others, then he should definitely get a shot in the national team. It would be interesting as well since he could be the first Fil-Iranian to play for the national football team.

   Thats right, he is 23. I dont know much about him or his playing style or his field position in Kaya, but since he is doing so well in futsal, that means that he has some of what is important in football nowadays, and that is speed and technique. But its easier for a futsalplayer to show their skills on an indoor court compared to crappy potatofields, which there are many of in Philippines. lol he also plays futsal with Rox Dorlas, so maybe he should be given a chance. I mean in the friendlies against Taiwan, the coach called in Yanti Barsales, and he is a striker and 37 years old! I mean, there got to be more options than an old guy.
