On ability alone Taisuke will walk into any of the 8 IMG joker franchises...the fact that he is not playing there says more about the scouting abilities of the pseudo clubs than anything else...
@gaffertappe Well why not? A man's gotta keep the kitchen fire burning. An i-League, a Fed Cup in his kitty in 2 seasons, at the end of the day all that matters is the silverware. Rest is all hokum and intellectual jerk offs
@kartik91 Dude, the league's promotion is to be done by the marketing partners. A better promoted, more advertised and marketed league will give more recognition to the players amongst general public. A club, a small one at that, in a football illiterate city like Mumbai or Delhi, can only do so much. The fact that MFC gets almost 4K crowds at Cooperage proves that they do whatever their meager means allow them. AIFF or IMG-R in the meanwhile do fuckall and have actually killed these clubs in more way than one.
good players.. I think NT has a good pipeline of promising youngsters getting ready with these 2+ few U-19s going for European training+ few signing for ISL teams..If only we can stop the favouritism in NT selection

Two interesting articles on Bengaluru FC coach, Ashley Westwood. I have criticized him for his on-field misdemeanor on a couple of occasions, but one has got to give credit where it is due. And he has certainly instilled a sense of professionalism in Indian football: his passion for his team and players is evident and his willingness to explore uncharted waters is certainly commendable.
i think he needs share of the player gps data to fans
then we can argue
