Materi sangat dalam, secara kualitas sama semua. Semua pemain akan bisa skor. Asing kita jago-jago semua. Mereka orang-orang yang tepat untuk menggantikan Kentrell," ucap Efri Meldi.</p><p>"Musim ini kita tidak bertumpu pada pemain asing tapi lebih ke kerjasama tim seperti yang sudah diperlihatkan saat laga uji coba," tuturnya.</p><p>Sementara itu, Kapten tim KBS, Kevin Moses juga meyakini bahwa mereka akan tampil maksimal dan stabil sepanjang musim 2025.</p><p>"Menyatukan <i>chemistry</i> antarpemain tidak susah. Tinggal saling mengerti kebiasaan satu sama lain aja. Kita ingin lebih baik dari musim lalu. Tujuan kita sama ingin juara," ujar Kevin Moses.</p><p>"Pemain asing dan naturalisasi mau berkembang bareng jadi kita enggak punya masalah dengan <i>chemistry</i>. Kita di lapangan enggak kesulitan," pungkasnya.</p><div class="raw-html-embed"><iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/_WZ2LQkKaXo?si=TPn0Gh7Roi1_1cYP" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div>
