How our football works .. Players like nirmal chettri ,Godwin who don't make it to I league and isl playing xi gets trials in Germany and talented players don't .. This tell how money and influence from others people cab help u ..
With no marquee rule last year we had the likes of Cornell Glenn , Johnny Menyongar , Angel Berlanga* etc. The current marquees like Leo Bertos....Anthony Wolfe and others are a lot wrose.
The only way you can make it stiffer is if part of the rule is that the marquee has to be AIFF approved. Other than that you can't do much else because there will always be a loophole.
Even if you say that all marquees must have played in the Barclays Premier League and nothing else then John Johnson is a marquee. Even Dan Smith, an Aussie 5th tier player, would count.
marquee should be based on recent performance criteria. aiff should add something like ' all this criterias should be fulfilled within past 1/2 years '
Looking at the FIFA rankings, I am pretty sure we can easily bring in some players who played for Mozambique, Antigua, Oman, Malawi, Benin, Uganda, Haiti, Guatemala, Costa Rica etc and they would still not do much to improve the I-League.
Two of which we already have in Soni Norde and Carlos Hernandez.
