There is a stagnancy about india's play right now - midfielders pass the ball among themselves sideways or back to defenders. There us no urgency on the ball, no forward movement or passes. Its either lofted balls to Chettri or crosses from full backs.
this sums up the issue of NT. we all on this forum wanted tiki taka like possession based football which Pep used in Barcelona to be implemented. For this reason we brought Wim Kovermans and failed. Then went back to long ball tactics under SC which went correctly till our ambitions grew. A good clinical striker is the need for current Indian team.
Trust me, even Spanish Football is changing. We just need to look beyond Barcelona for that. Lot of Long ball is played in Spain. Even their National team is not shy of doing it.
