Sunil Chhetri termed this as 'by far the best performance by the Indian Team' in a long time. In the post-match press conference, he stated, "I'm part of the National team for last 12 years and believe me, it's by far the best performance by us in a long time. After getting battered by our coach at the half-time, we bounced back and showed our potential to snatch the win."
He added more, "It was a crucial match for us and we proved ourselves. We are on a good run and hopefully, we'll continue that."
DOWNside is that Constatine's belief of best indian players will become firm..these set of players will be selected again..he may not introduce a single change on any positions..only we will get tired of saying him names!!otherwise we should start complete player data analysis in domestic leagues..in the next possible season itself.if not,Players like brandon,jayesh,kean will not play for national team ever..constatine is
Far from the best performance by the team. could have been different if Kyrgyz strikers could have finished decent chances.
The problem is in the Full back positions and the central midfield.
Both full backs do not have the pace or the crossing ability to overlap nor are they solid defensively to be complete defensive fullbacks and need the CB's or Midfield to help.
It was a better defensive performance by them today though.
Eugenson is out of form but we can persist with him along with Rowlin who are actually the best midfield pairing we can conjure.
Jacki and Narzary again don't have the consistent quality to create chances from the wings nor have the pace to leave the defender when one on one. We sorely do miss Udanta and Vineeth on the wings. Can try Keegan for a friendly.
We need a creative spark in the middle in the absence of Sunil and I would definitely look at Brandon(if fit) or lobo (if fit again) or even a Daniel to run from the top of a diamond midfield.
Rafique should stay away anywhere near this team.
Sunil has really is the leader upfront the pitch. Jeje has completely lost the pace but still has that holding and linking ability which should keep robin away from the starting spot.
We desperately need a pacy finisher as a striker and fast by 2019.
Nevertheless we are in the driver seat for a qualification. We just need to keep our heads up and finish the job.

Eugene is Cam or a winger
Playing him as CM and asking him to defend as much as attack is stupidity
We must play probably him in more advance role or change to 3 men midfield and play him as LM Rowlin as CM and Isaac or Milan as RM
He is more of a box to box cm with someone to support him in the middle. Hoping that's rowlin
