There is no way BFC will enter ISL without getting a go at AFC competitions. they are in ISL that means either ISL is getting a spot or there will a super whatever after I-league and ISL.
I don't think AFC will give AFC cup slot directly to ISL. They are talking about Nov-April season. If ISL drops play offs then both leagues will be over by mid march ( if matches played on every weekend) and whole april will be available for super cup.
Yes we should send u23 team for SAFF cup this time. It can serve as platform to look into players and build team for Asian Games in August and for the NT.
Once qualifiers for AFC Asian Cup are finished, IMG-R will not let senior team play any international matches as long as their league is going on. We should not discard any opportunity to play international matches. Take SAFF cup as Friendly. SAFF victory is important for us to keep up the momentum. Just like last time, coach can try out new and young players. Recently India played Nepal only in Mumbai.
