Agree with @mohammed_87hassan Kerala Blasters don't have any problems at all with getting a crowd so they don't need to splash money on signings like this. Berba and Brown might do very well, who knows, but most likely on paper Brown is a guy who hasn't played more than 10 games a season since 2014-15 and Berba hasn't been that clinical. He will score goals in India but at best in the 5-10 goals range... you can probably get someone to get that same production for a fraction of the cost and who is younger.
30 year old big names who are regular in the Premier League won't come to India. Even if we can somehow match what they make in the Premier League they won't come unless you offer them more than they were earning there.
I agree on the fact that Des Brown isn't a good signing...but hell criticsing Berbatov...you should wait till he starts playing here...!Don't jump to conclusions now itself!
I am not say that Berba is a bad signing, just that you could probably sign someone who can do exactly what he can do for a fraction of the price and who is younger and can be a part of the Kerala Blasters for the long-run, become a legend with them essentially. The Blasters have no problems bringing in the crowds so bringing in Berba doesn't make complete sense.
If Pune City signed Berba then I could understand since that would probably help boost them but for Kerala?
So far the foreign signings of Delhi Dynamos and Jamshedpur Fc is impressive. After that Fc Goa is quite good. Every ISL club doing some noise in foreign signing but what about North East United FC . Very keen to know their strategy.
