Anon Sangsanoi, the Thailand Premier League’s top scorer, was surprisingly left out of national coach Peter Reid’s squad for this month’s TT&T Cup in Hanoi.

The Englishman cut his initial 36-man squad to 20 yesterday or the October 28-November 1 tournament, but did not give a reason why BEC Tero player Anon was axed.

”We had little time to watch all the players because Vietnam wanted the squad list straight away,” Reid said.

”However, I watched several games in the Thai League and Division One and I think this is the best squad for the national team. I hope they will get good results in the tournament.”

Tawan Sripan, Reid’s assistant, said the 20 players were picked by Reid himself and he and other assistants only gave him advice.

”I think Peter watched Anon during training and was not pleased with his performance,” Tawan said.

”It is a bit disappointing that Anon is not in the team but he is still young and he will get his chance in the future.”
