Some welcome changes. As Wim mentioned that he is not going to change the squad drastically but gradually, I didnt expect huge change, but some notable positive change : Bhowmick, Nandy, Arata, Vineeth, alongwith some negative inclusion Gouramangi, sushil and Pereira. This time the bench looks damn good specially arnab, Gurwinder, ralte and jeje (coming back to national setup slowly). Midfield is superb, defence is ok and attack is still depleted (All hopes on sunil). Exclusion of Robin is good for him as he will be work more to get noted and come back to the team.
@reddevil87 I agree with you, Attack will be problem for us. Also we don't have much option in striking dept. Most of the clubs have foreigners as first choice strikers. we have only small pool of strikers.
And congrats to India's future CB asset Sandesh Jhingan for making it to the Standby,if Gouramangi fails and Sandesh continues his form wont be surprised to see him cementing his place in near future.

Defenders and Forwards are not convincing,infact players in standby are better than Raju Gaikwad.
Arata elated on being named in India team

Why Lenny, Mehatab and Lalkamal are all selected. They are all similar type of players.
When Abraches was not scoring goals he was selected and now when he has started scoring goals he gets dropped. What's the logic?????
