Luckily enough, Liverpool had a match at Upton Park around that time.<br /><br />“I was sitting behind the dug out, and I almost jumped up and celebrated when Liverpool won&#33;” said Nicholas, who is currently back in Kuala Lumpur to complete his A-Levels.<br />During his trials at West Ham United, Nicholas Chan (right) was playing against young footballers who had several years of training over him, but he was still able to impress the coaches enough to be recalled twice.<br /><br /><span style='font-size:14pt;line-height:100%'><span style='color:red'>During his trials at West Ham United, Nicholas Chan (right) was playing against young footballers who had several years of training over him, but he was still able to impress the coaches enough to be recalled twice.</span></span><br /><br />A friend of his father who played for the Newcastle United youth team had helped him get a spot at West Ham’s academy, and since then he has trained with the likes of Scott Parker and Carlton Cole at West Ham, and Michael Chopra at Cardiff. He has even been involved in reserve team games against Bristol Rovers, Hereford United and Fulham while with Cardiff.<br /><br />He has done well enough for both clubs to offer him Ivy League scholarships in the United States, in view of him making the MLS (American Major League Soccer) after he graduates.<br /><br />But the young centreback, defensive midfielder and occasional winger has decided to try his luck at professional football in Britain by accepting the offer of a longer stint at Cardiff, a club which has also produced Arsenal midfield prodigy Aaron Ramsey, once he completes his A-Levels.<br /><br />“The coaches there are so committed. I was training mostly with the first team at Cardiff. Even when it was snowed in, the reserve team coach would give me one-on-one training indoors. He still calls me from time to time to see how I’m doing, and I’m not even their player yet&#33;<br /><br />“That’s why I feel like going back to Cardiff. The coaches give us their best, so I feel like giving them my best too,” he said.<br /><br />Of course, having dreamed of doing all that myself, I had to ask what life as a young footballer in England is like.<br /><br />“We all train from 9am to 4pm. Apart from that, we’re all pretty normal. All the guys at West Ham play FIFA on the PlayStation, and some of them get pretty excited cos they’re actually in the game&#33;” he revealed.<br /><br />Then of course, there’s the auto show every morning at the training ground car park.<br /><br />“Those from the reserves drive ‘alright cars’ like BMW 3-Series. Then there’s the next level – the first team players and their Ferraris and Lamborghinis. Valon Behrami has two Ferraris I think – one black and one red. It gives you quite a bit of motivation when you see those cars as you come for training,” he joked.<br /><br />But having experienced first hand what their jobs are like, Nicholas believes that the players deserve whatever they’re getting paid.<br /><br />“It looks easy on television, but the pressure when you’re on the field is very intense&#33; You wont understand until you’re actually on the pitch playing with them. Anybody else would crack under that kind of pressure.<br /><br />“And you have to sacrifice your normal life. You can’t party too hard, and you can’t go out with your friends if there’s training or a match,” he explained.<br /><br />Nicholas, who first played football when his driver, a former state footballer, started kicking the ball around with him, also believes that if Malaysians really wanted to excel in football, they’ll need to start earlier.<br /><br />By the time he started training, Nicholas was 13. His teammates at Cardiff and West Ham mostly started when they were around eight or nine, and with much better facilities.<br /><br />“I had quite good reviews. The coaches said that if I had started earlier I would already be playing professional by now. But now it always feels like I’m playing catch-up there.<br /><br />“Right now, even if there was a chance to play professionally in League Two (the fourth tier of English football), I’d take it. But I really want to play for Cardiff. I feel like I belong there,” he said.<br /><br /><span style='font-size:14pt;line-height:100%'><span style='color:red'>Nicholas has a rather good headache on his hands now. He could still take the Ivy League scholarship from either West Ham or Cardiff, which would take him away from English football but give him a more stable long-term future, or go back and try to make it at Cardiff.</span></span><br /><br />But Nicholas knows exactly what he wants.<br /><br />“Even if there’s a 50% chance that I could make it as a professional footballer in England, I would take it ahead of the Ivy League scholarship. I would go all out for it. You’re only young once, so you should just take the risk,” he said.<br /><!--SPOILER DIV--></div><!--SPOILER DIV--><br /><b><span style='color:blue'><a href='http://blog.rage.com.my/young-and-lucky' target='_blank'>S.O.S</a></span></b><br /><br />Then .....<br /><br />Monday, October 12, 2009<br />Today’s reserve friendly<br />It ended all square today in the friendly between City and Bristol Rovers with boss Dave Jones giving youth and experience to run-out. Both Kevin McNaughton and Ross McCormack to part in the game which finished 1-1 City losing to a late penalty but there was no sign of Warren Feeney. They both came through unscathed but didn’t play a full game and should be ready to play some part in the Palace game Saturday.<br /><br />McCormack had a lively game and could well have score coming close on a number of occasions as Cardiff took control for most of the game with Cardiff keeper Peter Enckelman having little to do. McCormack played 75 minutes of the game and wanted to play the full 90 minutes.<br /><br />City had a few chance before Miguel Comminges open the scoring, he and Solomon Taiwo played a one two with Comminges slotting the ball past the Rovers keeper in the 21st minute. With Cardiff looking the better team it was a surprise there were no more goals it was not for the chances has Cardiff put pressure on the Rovers goal forcing the keeper to make some fine saves. There were six chances throughout the game Riccy Scimeca also had run-out before being subbed.<br /><!--SPOILER BEGIN--><div class="spoilertop" onClick="openClose('9223d464d255d9842ebc3c379d89fb21')" style="font-weight: bold"><u>&raquo; Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... &laquo;</u></div><div class="spoilermain" id="9223d464d255d9842ebc3c379d89fb21" style="display:none"><!--SPOILER END--><br /><span style='font-size:16pt;line-height:100%'><span style='color:red'>Cardiff also gave Nick Chan son of potential investor Dato Chan Tien Ghee Nick who was on the bench came on replacing Solomon Taiwo Chan has been training with the first team squad.</span></span><br />Peter Enckelman<br />Kevin McNaughton – Tony Capaldi – Ricky Scimeca – Aaron Norris<br />Miguel Comminges – Billy Taylor – Solomon Taiwo – Kai Bichard<br />Ross McCormack – Jonathan Meades<br />-----------------<br />Zac Evans on for Kevin MaNaughton<br />Stephen Last on for Ricky Scimeca<br />Luke Cummings on for Billy Taylor<br />Nick Chan on for Solomon Taiwo<br />Lee Smith on for Ross McCormack<br />Ibrahim Farah on for Jonathan Meades<br />Substitutes on used Jordan Santiago, Kai Edwards <!--SPOILER DIV--></div><!--SPOILER DIV--><br /><b><span style='color:blue'><a href='http://cardiff-city.blogspot.com/2009/10/todays-reserve-friendly.html' target='_blank'>S.O.S</a></b></span><br /><br /><br />Then again ..... <br />Who said you need talent to play football<br /><br />Datuk Chan Tien Ghee joins Cardiff City board<br /><!--SPOILER BEGIN--><div class="spoilertop" onClick="openClose('08aaac479e510bdb06929e01c45ee6e9')" style="font-weight: bold"><u>&raquo; Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... &laquo;</u></div><div class="spoilermain" id="08aaac479e510bdb06929e01c45ee6e9" style="display:none"><!--SPOILER END--><br />By Alan McGuinness<br /><br />Championship side Cardiff City have announced that businessman Datuk Chan Tien Ghee has joined the club&#39;s board and has already started to invest money in the club.<br /><br />The club was at the High Court today to face a winding up order from HM Revenue and Customs.
