i was not sure about this from the start, Hernandez mentioned that I-league has got no international value...

@shankar I personally feel this yr bagan made some intelligent signings. Especially tolly ozbey, I believe he and odafe can actually complement each other very well. Then pace down the right flank which was missing in last couple of seasons should be no worry this season as bijendra rai and manish bhargav are quite speedy and workhorses. Goalkeeper slot improved too arindam is anyday better than shilton or ageing sangram. I have seen eche play few cfl matches and I think he is a good aspect in defence. Central attacking midfield slot is very vulnerable but masih as blocker in midfiled is quite a good player. I think this yr they have enough chances to be successful, but as we all know success won't come instantly. The management has to be very patient with santosh kasyap. But I personally believe after 3 seasons mariners made some necessary and good changes.

<div><br></div><div>but what sense is there in having 4 forwards as foreigners????are they planning to play 4-3-3 formation ???</div><div>for regular 4-4-2 they had tolgey-odafe combination with sabeeth right there in bench to replace them whenever needed</div><div>they should have tried for better players in different position at least in the other two foreign slots then they could have been stronger than what the present team looks<br><div><br></div></div>
