    honestly speaking i league standard is better than what indian NT rank shows.

I will give you examples, your so called best in South Asia, Rohit Chand, could only play in HAL SC, which got relegated. Rohit was no doubt one of the best in HAL (I used watch him live, chat with him afterwards), but no i league team had any interest. secondly, Amiri another very good SAFF player plays for Mumbai FC, again another club with very limited budget and performances. Anil Gurung used to play in Lajong and was a big flop. The best a SAFF player did in recent times (in terms of getting a higher club) was Belal Arezou in Churchill, and he used to come as substitute, wasn't a huge succcess apart from a few games, most notably Churchill's title winner game, ehere  his introduction changed the game.</div><div><br></div><div>Earlier SAFF playr would have still made it to better clubs, like Rosha Parreira, Ganesh Thapa in Kolkata clubs when i league was not even started...even in long long ago Pakistani players used to come and impress...but now with i league Indian club football is much better, I wont say that Indian players are immensely better than SAFF players, no they are not, but clubs as a team and with their foreigners are surely of a better standard. an odd game doesnt prove otherwise.</div><div><br></div><div>however, Bengaluru FC, is surely not of high standards, they are new team and the recruits are average, apart from few.Coach is unproven.</div>

    <br><br>Ali Ashfaq (Maldives)  can still come in any club team in India. He is good.<br>

    <br><div><br></div><div>i too support that indian clubs are good(pune fc youth u19 side really show good game in pokhara nepal and hope this year also indian club will come to pokhara,football crazy city).Also each indian club have huge budget ,their own academy,and have good foreign players.,,,,india have the best league system in south asia.</div><div><br></div><div>in my previous post,my intention was only to say that nepalese club are also not that much weak as people make fun of them(though they lack money,academy and infrastructue).Recenty Three star club defeat the league champion of east asian countries and is selected for the final round of AFC president cup in malaysia....</div>

    BTW, for the Bengaluru vs. India match, which team will Sunil Chhetri and Robin Singh play for? Considering the SAFF Cup is coming up earlier than the Federation Cup and I-League Wim will want Chhetri to play for India while Singh could play for Bengaluru as he would only be a sub for India (and then at half-time he can change teams).
