Roca is a former BFC boss so him not giving more chances to non BFC players is not gonna happen.
Am also seeing most post for SC to be removed before Asia cup. Why? You didn't fire him when he lost 5 straight and came last in the group. Why now when he is on a high after 2 years of big results.
I don't like stephen only because of his team selection.. Otherwise he deserves credit for draw against chinese team and with draw One more positive was india made some good attacking moves and that's why this draw is special
However, this may not be an indication of Constantine handing the
captain’s armband over from star striker Sunil Chhetri to Gurpreet.
Centreback Arnab Mondal, while addressing the media during the
national team’s training camp in Mumbai last week, said that the
Englishman is using a rotational system for his captains, with four
players – Chhetri, Mondal, Gurpreet, and Robin Singh – taking turns to
wear the captain’s armband.
“It’s rotational system. There is no one captain,” Arnab had said.
“So the team is not dependent on any one player. The whole team works
together. Whoever gets the captains armband, has to lead on the ground,
but we as a team take responsibility and fight together.”
In SAFF Championship, I have seen Subhashish Ghosh, Vishal Kaith and even Sumit Passi wearing Captain's Armband. Rift or fight for captaincy is unnecessary speculation.
Chhetri needs to prolong his career..hence have been batting for Roca! At the same time, his work rate even at this age is good; without him our formation would be 4-5-0!
This is nothing new - in India an individual is always bigger than the game....
Chhteri should retire after Asian Cup. Or may be we host a SAFF cup as his farewell tourney. Either ways, we need to groom a new goalscoring duo to replace Chettri and Jeje post 2019.
