New Coach by December’ We are not having a good run at the
moment but that happens to any
football club. We have a young team
and I have full confidence in my players
to turn around the situation soon. It is
just a matter of time. We cannot act like big clubs and just
throw money around to get big names.
We have financial restriction. We only
need to work hard on the ground and
also hope for little luck.
I am in talks with few coaches and by December we will have a coach for
United Sikkim FC. I shall work along and
help the new coach.
The I-League is still only 6 matches old
and we have 20 more matches to go.
It's still long way and I am very positive about my team to do well sooner or
later. -Club CEO/interim coach/player
Bhaichung Bhutia to media in Pune.
Good on him. At least he is somewhat being realistic here (I doubt you guys have that much money to spend anyway otherwise you would surely buy experience to help these young players.)

Pune FC match

PUNE: United Sikkim Football Club and
talismanic Bhaichung Bhutia might find
more fans than the home team Pune FC
when the two sides meet in the Round
VII match of the I-League football
championship at the Balewadi Sports Complex stadium on Saturday.
More fans do not necessarily mean
that player-coach Bhutia can swing the
match in his way as well-rested Pune FC
is looking to get back into their groove
after their match against Air India was postponed last week.
This will be first meeting between Pune
FC and United Sikkim FC in the I-League
championship, but whichever way the
home side will be favourite to win the
encounter that will help them move up the standings and still have a match in
hand.
At the beginning of the season Pune and
Sikkim outfits met in the Federation Cup
tournament wherein Pune won by a
solitary goal. Bhutia’s presence hasn’t done much to lift the team’s performance
—whether the former India captain is
playing or guiding the team from the
sidelines.
Back-to-back reverses at home and away
had shaken Pune FC, but a morale boosting win against Pailan Arrows had
put them on track and that is from where
Derrick Pereira would like to start against
United Sikkim, which faced the ignominy
of losing 1-10 against Prayag United SC
in Round V.
The Sikkim outfit then travelled to Goa
where Sporting Clube de Goa beat them
2-1—the result putting the North-
Easterners at No 13 position, just one
place above the bottom-ranked Air India.
Sandesh Jhingan was the saviour for Sikkim after Sporting Clube had gone 2-0
up in the first 15 minutes of the match.
Bhutia had begun from bench for his first
match as interim coach, with Anwar Ali
at the heart of the defense, while Michael
Rodriguez drove the midfield and provided support for strikers Nurudden
Salau and Nadong Bhutia.
Bhutia then took the field, but failed to
provide any spark in an otherwise dull
affair, something that United Sikkim will
have to guard against. Pune FC on the other hand is hoping to
beat Sikkim both on ground and from the
stands. With the match being telecast
live, the hosts have done enough
campaign to attract fans to the stadium
for the 5.30 pm start, an hour earlier than usual start for the home team matches.
“I feel so far we’ve done well to reduce
mistakes. And have done so considerably
as the league has progressed,” said
Pereira.
“Playing in our conditions and under floodlights is an advantage. But overall
every match is important.”
Pune FC has the luxury of picking the
team from entire set of players with
every player in good shape and without
injury except for midfielder Shanmugam Venkatesh—posing a challenge for the
coach.
Venkatesh is yet to recover from a
hamstring injury, but Pereira has lots of
choice to pick from.
Though Jeje Lalpekhlua is yet to blossom
as the coach would have liked to, but Subhash Singh has nicely filled in the
void with his brisk work upfront. James
Moga too is back in good health and
skipper Douhou Pierre would expect the
Sudanese forward to make his place
count. (Courtesy: AIFF)

Pune has a strong North East community. Hope they come to stadium in good numbers for Jeje and Bhutia.
