why hold the camp in some international venue? if that happens, it will be ridiculous. For me though, I would want it to be held in Mumbai

Wow admin thats great news, well i guess for me that afghanistan still has a chance to play, what does everyone else think, should afghanistan play over the azkals and maldives????
<P>I would love to see Afghanistan be the 5th team. It's a great rematch and I've always said India needs a good local rivalry to push them. Maldives are going down hill and none of our other neighbors are as good barring Nepal who are pretty good. Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Bhutan are horrible. Maybe Pakistan can be good in the future but now football is not their priority. </P>
Yeah India and Afghanistan could be a great rivalry, and also like it was written in the article everyones would love to see a rematch after the SAFF finals
