Subrata Pal possibly does everything to emulate the more legendary Peter Cech - from wearing the head gear to donning almost the same color jersey as Peter, excepting from emulating his performance on ground!
Asst. Coach Sammy Omollo feels Bengaluru’s two central
defenders Osano and Johnson are the weak link as they are
very slow .“We have to take the advantage as both of them
are slow movers on the field . ” .
Talking about Bengaluru FC captain Sunil Chhetri , Omollo
felt , “ Sunil will be tired after playing the ISL and SAFF Cup .
At least the first four matches indicated so . I am confident
our defenders Arnab and Bello will find no difficulty to stop
the striker from scoring .”
Bengaluru FC coach Ashley Westwood is not too concerned
about his side’s loss against Mumbai FC ,“ LOL LOL
Like, what? Johnson and Osano are not the fastest defenders around but they are not that slow and they are very smart defenders (for this level) with plenty of experience. Osano specifically is doing better than I thought he would honestly.
Also Chhetri being tired is true but his last ISL game was 4 December and then the SAFF Cup happened weeks later and now it has been almost a month since the SAFF Cup and with the I-League that has gaps in between match-weeks so it is not as if Chhetri will be useless.
Yea, BFC defenders are certainly not the fastest nor are they swift enough. error which EB committed today was they played these guys' strength; too many aerial balls played in BFC backline and Johnson being an excellent header that he is, found it easy to negotiate...
