Amri will play key role

I am confident that winger Khairul Amri will soon return to his best after six more matches in the Malaysian Super League.

Amri, who was sidelined by injury for 11 months, made his starting debut against Felda on Tuesday.

Though he showed signs of "rustiness", Amri played to instructions and will be a key player for the LionsXII as they enter the final stretch of the league.

Give him six more games, and you will know why head coach V Sundramoorthy and I have been so patient with him over the months.
