So much for the 5 billion training ground

I just read the morning news at tribunjabar.co.id, it says that another problem has occur in the persib players training ground. they said that there is been a leak from the ceiling. This makes some players and staffs are disturbed. I also read that Nyeck Nyobe slip over the stairs because of the leak goes to the staircases and made it slippery.

The same thing happen couple months ago, when the leak happen in the VIP room. Then a couple of months after the training ground is started to be used, the grass in some part of the pitch dried up. They said its because of overusing. Overusing? the only team who use the pitch is the first team and the U-21s. how could it be possible to be overused?

Then some players also complain about the loud music from a pub across the training ground at night. Well what do you expect? its in the middle of the city, well.... middle ish actually. Before it became a training ground, It was a small stadium called Sidolig.

So all I'm saying is, Is it worthwhile spending 5 billion on this training ground? well, first of all we got no choice, since we dont have any before. But now, is it really the real training ground type of place? I don't think so.

I think, a perfect training ground will be in a place far from the city. I'm guessing place like Soreang, Lembang and Cimahi might be good in this case. This training ground will have two football pitch with perfect care, buildings for the flats and offices and a car park. And all of these will be surrounded by walls and gates so only certain people can enter. Having a training ground far from the city is also better because less noise and if its in a high ground then the oxygen level will also low which makes it more difficult to breathe (that's why persiwa player have one of the best stamina)

So which one will it be? A perfect training ground that might cost more but no often disruptions or the current 5 billion + + + + training ground which new problems might occur
