We always come back to this reason for the NTs poor results, and it is true that will be the case if this unprepared 2 league nonsense continues. But in the short term, a good coach can pick the right players to play a system he wants and implement this system to get results. India needs to walk before it can run. Make this team difficult to beat instead of playing this 4 attacking players who cannot attack. What is the point of taking Jairu, Francis, Jackichand etc when we know they won't do feck all.
Our strength is in central midfield; they may not be the greatest players in Asia but what they will provide is energy and pressing throughout the game - Euegene, Thoi, Khabra, Boithang, Dhanpal, Sehnaj, Borges, Halder, Bikramjit. Put players with pace on the wing (Mandar, Vineeth) and bring on flair players later (Romeo, Brandon) or play with wing backs (Ashutosh, Chuantea) which will allow us to play two up top. Play to our strength (central midfielders), play 3 of them in the middle of the park and make us hard to be beaten, and then build from there.
There are enough players out there that can be sued to build a squad that will be able to get half decent results, but SC is not doing it.
Apart form the obvious thought of playing players out of position by SC (a major flaw from SC), I feel we seriously lack proper bench strength. I meant 2-3 top players (by Indian standards) for each position. So that depending upon situation the coach can pick his players. Unfortunately, I have not seen good bench strength after Bob left.
Any such strategy requires either highlly skilled players which we don't have or team training together for long time which we wont allow. Any coach will then choose his most fit XI and hope for the best.....although I suggest for national team we need to start choosing players like Tudu..etc who are not bound by #IMG contracts and who could be in a camp for months.they should form the core before match days we add sunil/arnab to add some quality
No we don't need to look at 17 year olds like Amit Tudu who has not even played in an U19 league yet, to start playing for the national team. That is nonsense.
And we must exclude Lorde Robin!!! He misses sitter cant control ball, cant hold the ball , cant give accurate passes!!! he is useless!!! we need two new strikers since JEJE missed two headers infront of goal against TKM, if u dnt believe check fullmatch vid!!! we need to change JEJE nd Robin we must have 2 new strikers!!! probable: Brandon nd MAMA
