The writing is on the wall...have a look at the league standing. Top 5 teams - th way they are is b'cos of a the professional approach in terms of selecting the squad/giving empowerment to the coach rather than officials intervening - (Churchill is a classic example and hence they are languishing at the bottom - followed by the National Circus Club of India - Mohunbagan!).
Good to see here, that just like the corporate world, I - League this year clearly has a corelation between performance and management of the team. Sad to see EB's position in this. Hope they dont follow their "better-half" Mohun Bagan!
East Bengal could be in 3rd potentially with their record. They will be fine.
Also I feel good about Dempo. I think Papas is starting to find his squad. He has the players he wants (probably since the summer) and he can now play the team he wants. Get two foreigners to replace Honda and Mehmet and I am sure they can make a good run at the top half of the table (title is out of their hands now).
But I guess, it was Papas who had handpicked the current Dempo squad - and he had brough it all these shitty Aussie players. Now he is falling back on his Pailan wards. That way he could have worked for Pailan Arrows itself instead of joining Dempo with such fanfare. Or is he another Karim in the making - now that he has fair idea of how to make money in Indian Football!
Papas is good for youth teams not for a big clubs if removed from job from dempo he says he will go to greece. have a offer from oliapicos to be head coach.
