    Why ruin Westwood's coaching career with the India job. Yes, he has done very well at Bengaluru FC but lets be honest... the national team is in shambles and will be for a couple years... Bengaluru FC has a lot of potential which Westwood could really make good out of.... the choice should be clear.

    Yes, Westwood might be able to get some results with India but overall I feel for him the best choice would be to stay at Bengaluru FC and reach for as high as you can there like Tony Popovic is doing in Western Sydney right now. Don't go Graham Arnold on us.

    ISL coaches among several eyeing India job (Marcus Mergulhao)

    There is life beyond the din and excitement of the Indian Super league, especially for the coaches on duty. 

    Most coaches are contracted with their respective franchisees till December 20 but with the India coaching vacancy now up for grabs following confirmation that Wim Koevermans will not continue beyond October when his contract ends, a few ISL coaches have put their hands up, some even throwing their hats in the ring for the job. 

    "We have got a fair bit of inquiries from coaches around the world. Quite a few coaches from the Indian Super League have applied as well," All India Football Federation (AIFF) general secretary Kushal Das told TOI on Monday. 

    Das did not disclose the names of coaches who are among the applicants but sources said NorthEast United coach Ricki Herbert, Kerala Blasters assistant coach Trevor Morgan and even Mumbai City FC coach Peter Reid can be counted among those who have been making inquiries about the vacant post. 

    "I have a contract with Kerala Blasters at the moment. It would be inappropriate for me to make any comments regarding the position of national team coach," said Morgan, who has plenty of admirers in India after doing some wonderful things with East Bengal in the past. 

    Even Zico, the Brazilian legend now at FC Goa, could consider an offer from the AIFF if the project is appealing, said a source close to the coach. 

    The AIFF is in no hurry to finalize Koeverman's successor and will take a decision only towards the year end. India do not have any international assignment till next year giving ambitious ISL coaches plenty to look forward to once their engagement in the league culminates on December 20.

    Trevor Morgan is also in the race? What about his Family commitments and all that stuff which he was saying that he cannot coach East bengal because his grandchildren cannot stay away from him?

    The ISL coaches eyeing Indian job , is probably an IMG-R spin , to make it appear as if they have top coaches in the League who in turn can help Indian football.

    Lets not forget , very little coaching is taking place , at the moment , the schedule only permits...
    Play...recovery session , travel, light pre-game session....PLAY....

    AIFF should at least be finalising the Indian Asst right now, to help once the new coach comes in ....

    Trevor's recruitment of the likes of Nirmal Chhetri, Mehtab Hussain , Avinavo Bag and Gurwinder ..not to mention Penn Orji & Andrew Barasic shows a lack of professional approach. Can One  expect similar things if he is in charge of Indian team ?
