Also a clear theme emerging in the ISL is
1) Use an Indian Goalkeeper
2) Use atleast Indian 3 defenders....That makes it 4 of the 5 Indians in the squad protecting their own goal
3) A marquee player in defence is preferred(Hughes,Lucio,Risse,Zokora)
Attacking marquue players are too slow or injured (Forlan , Postiga)
Also, Age of foreign players is an issue, the team with younger foreign players will definitely do well as the current speed is too slow
@karenesudhakar2050 So you have sources as well? Well, lets make that 90% of this forum who have insider information... also turns out that all of them don't like the ISL while the ones who do like ISL are automatically called out as liars.
@rak_liverpool1979 Eh, expected. It is like in the I-League how most sides would get one defender, one midfielder, and two forward/strikers. Bengaluru FC do the opposite for the most part of two defenders, one midfielder, and one forward.
What i am sharing from close sources 3 of isl owners are ready to close their teams after isl-5.
I mean why wait till ISL 5 to shut down team? They should shut down after season three only...why take the pain of hemorrhaging money for two more seasons. I really dont get it.
According to 24 Ghanta, Rowllin Borges reportedly being chased by EB and MB: MB had initiated talks earlier but his discussions with EB officials are now said to be in an advanced stage.
