من السهل جداً اليوم أن أرتدي ثوب البطل وأشن حملة إعلامية وتويترية على رئيس شركة نادي الاتحاد المهندس فهد سندي، أضع فيه كل «عيوب» الدنيا وأصفه بأسوأ الأوصاف، واستثمرها فرصة ذهبية في هذا التوقيت الذي قاربت فيه فترة التسجيل على الانتهاء، دون أن يتمكن الاتحاد من إتمام صفقتين أو ثلاث صفات، أو حتى صفقة واحدة من العيار الثقيل، خاصة أن «العشم» فيه كان كبيراً على اعتبار أنه «امتداد» للإدارة السابقة الناجحة بقيادة المهندس لؤي مشعبي.
-أقول: من السهل جداً أن أقود هذا التوجّه «الانفعالي»، ولكن لو حكمنا العقل والمنطق ورجعنا قليلاً إلى توقيت استلامه رئاسة النادي، لوجدنا أنه جاء «بعدما طارت الطيور بأرزاقها»، وبالتالي فإن مهمته في اختيار نجوم كبار يتوافقون مع طموحات الجماهير الاتحادية تبقى مسألة «مستحيلة»، خصوصاً أن خزينة النادي كانت «شحيحة»، وحتى لو وصله «دعم مادي» – كما يُقال – فإن الاختيارات تبقى «صعبة» جداً.
-ليست هذه «المعضلة» الوحيدة التي واجهته، فهو والمدير الرياضي السيد «رايمون»، والكابتن القدير كريم بنزيما، وجدوا أنفسهم في موقف «محرج» عند محاولة «إقناع» بعض اللاعبين – اثنين أو ثلاثة – بإنهاء عقودهم أو إعارتهم إلى أحد الأندية المحلية أو الأجنبية، إذا كانوا غير «مقتنعين» بالأسباب. هؤلاء اللاعبون حققوا في الموسم الماضي «بطولتين» وقدموا مستويات فنية رائعة جداً، فما هو العذر الذي يبرر «فك» الارتباط معهم؟ خصوصاً أن الفترة الحالية مع قرب انتهاء التسجيل لا تمنحهم «خيارات» مناسبة للانتقال، وحتى لو قبلوا «بفسخ» عقودهم، فما هي «الضمانات» التي تحفظ حقوقهم المادية وتمنحهم تعويضاً مناسباً ونهاية سعيدة، بعيداً عن الدخول في متاهات ومهاترات قد تؤدي إلى شكاوى لدى «الفيفا»؟
-ومن ناحية أخرى، لو وافق اللاعبون – دون ذكر أسمائهم – على فسخ العقود مع استلام مستحقاتهم فوراً عن كامل المدة المتبقية، فإن الدعم الذي حصل عليه النادي – «إن صحت الرواية» – لن يكفي لتسديد هذه الالتزامات، وفي نفس الوقت سيكون من المستحيل على الإدارة التعاقد مع نجم كبير، وحتى لو وُجد نجم متاح، فلابد من تقديم مغريات مالية ضخمة لناديه وللاعب نفسه. وهذا ما حدث حتى على مستوى اللاعبين المواليد، إذ كانت مطالبهم «خيالية».
-من هذا المنطلق، فإن رئيس شركة الاتحاد وأعضاء مجلس إدارته «معذورون»، وكذلك المدير الرياضي السيد رايمون، فهو الآخر معذور سواء قبل انتخاب فهد سندي رئيساً أو بعده، فالوضع المالي في كلتا الحالتين سيئ. ومن المؤكد أن «شلة المنشقين» بقيادة «كبيرهم» سيقولون: لو ترك سندي المنصب للأستاذ أنمار الحائلي، لتمكن الأخير بوفرة ماله من جلب النجوم مهما كانت مطالبهم! إنها كذبة كبيرة يروّج لها كبير المنشقين نفسه، وهو من طالب أنمار قبل الموسم الماضي عبر منصة «إكس» وفي أكثر من برنامج إذاعي وتلفزيوني بالرحيل، قائلاً نصاً: «يا أخي لا تغثنا بفلوسك، الاتحاد يحتاج إلى فكر، وأنت ومن حولك لا تملكون الفكر». كل شيء مكتوب وموثّق. وأنا بدوري أقول لهذا «المتأزم»: كفاية كذب وافتراء، واعلم أن سندي «المعذور» باقٍ حتى نهاية فترته، وإذا لم يعجبك الأمر فاشرب من البحر.
-ولكيلا يعيش الجمهور الاتحادي في آمال واهية مثل «أمل إبليس في الجنة»، فإنني أرى، من وجهة نظري أن القائد الحكيم كريم بنزيما، بما له من محبة وتقدير بين اللاعبين وحالة الانسجام الذهني والبدني التي تسود بينهم، قادر هو ورفاقه «المخلصون» على تحقيق «المستحيل»،مع الدعم الجماهيري فسترون العجب والعجاب تحت راية «تحدي» للمرة الثانية ستتحقق، ومعجزة أخرى وربما سترى النور هذا الموسم.

It is very easy today for me to don the hero's robe and launch a media and Twitter campaign against the chairman of the Al-Ittihad Club, Engineer Fahd Sindi, where I could list all the "flaws" in the world and describe him in the worst terms, seizing it as a golden opportunity at this time when the registration period is nearing its end, without the club being able to complete two or three deals, or even a single significant deal, especially since the "hope" in him was great considering he is an "extension" of the previous successful management led by Engineer Luay Mushaybi.
- I say: It is very easy to lead this "emotional" trend, but if we use reason and logic and look back a bit at the timing of his assumption of the club's presidency, we would find that he came "after the birds had flown with their provisions," and thus his task of selecting major stars that align with the aspirations of the Al-Ittihad fans remains an "impossible" matter, especially since the club's treasury was "scarce," and even if he received "financial support" – as it is said – the choices remain "very difficult."
- This is not the only "dilemma" he faced; he, along with the sports director Mr. Raymon and the capable captain Karim Benzema, found themselves in an "embarrassing" position when trying to "convince" some players – two or three – to terminate their contracts or loan them to a local or foreign club, if they were not "convinced" by the reasons. These players achieved "two championships" last season and delivered very impressive performances, so what is the excuse that justifies "dissociating" from them? Especially since the current period, with the registration deadline approaching, does not offer them "suitable options" for transfer, and even if they agreed to "terminate" their contracts, what are the "guarantees" that protect their financial rights and provide them with appropriate compensation and a happy ending, away from entering into labyrinths and squabbles that could lead to complaints to "FIFA"?
- On the other hand, if the players – without mentioning their names – agreed to terminate their contracts while receiving their dues immediately for the entire remaining period, then the support the club received – "if the story is true" – would not be enough to cover these obligations, and at the same time it would be impossible for the management to contract with a major star, and even if a star were available, huge financial incentives would have to be offered to his club and to the player himself. This has even happened at the level of players born in the country, as their demands were "fantastical."
- From this standpoint, the chairman of the Al-Ittihad Company and the members of its board of directors are "excused," as is the sports director Mr. Raymon, who is also excused whether he accepted Fahd Sindi as president or after him, as the financial situation in both cases is bad. It is certain that the "group of dissidents" led by their "leader" will say: If Sindi had left the position to Mr. Anmar Al-Haili, the latter would have been able to bring in stars regardless of their demands with his ample wealth! It is a big lie promoted by the leader of the dissidents himself, who called for Anmar to leave before the last season via the "X" platform and in several radio and television programs, saying verbatim: "Oh brother, don’t bother us with your money; Al-Ittihad needs intellect, and you and those around you do not possess intellect." Everything is documented and recorded. And I, in turn, say to this "agitated" individual: Enough with the lies and slander, and know that the "excused" Sindi will remain until the end of his term, and if you don’t like it, drink from the sea.
- So that the Al-Ittihad fans do not live in vain hopes like "the hope of Satan in paradise," I see, from my point of view, that the wise leader Karim Benzema, with his love and respect among the players and the mental and physical harmony that prevails among them, is capable, along with his "loyal" companions, of achieving the "impossible." With fan support, you will see wonders and miracles under the banner of "Challenge" for the second time, and another miracle may see the light this season.
