Doubt that, FC Goa matches go house full, Salgaocar has been drawing decent crowds for their home matches this season. I am sure soon enough more talents will emerge. Romeo and Mandar are just ISL specials, good for stage show stuff not in the real world. For that you have guys like Lobo, Victorino, Brandon, etc.
There is a difference between attitude and telent... Mandar and romeo have had a poor attitude to not turning up for NT commitments, but that doesnt mean they are poor footballers.
And yeah am not emphatising on them..they rightfully get the ban for not respectibg a AIFF mandated NT tournament.
No one takes Zico seriously anymore, he is too old and a spent force in world football. His certification of an Indian footballer gives him another fat contract in FC Goa but doesn't do any good for the said player who is below par even at an Asian level. Romeo and Mandar play at a second division I-League club, says tons about their talent and intelligence.
Biswajit da can at least tell the names of all his 25 players would love to see anelka & Roberto Carlos (bought in at great expense to teach us illiterate Indians how to football) do that......
East Bengal may have had horrible team planning this season but they are still light years ahead of ATK (as a football club), which is tweeting about great graduate diplomas in Kolkata & MCFC whose office & staff's whereabouts is perhaps india's greatest mystery after Mallaya's whereabouts.

Not really sure what u mean by ISL specials. Its the same players who play in i-League.
