@dhritiman7 - Yeah that seems like a good enough way to do it...if we do it. This way stimac would have had a complete tenure and if the results aren’t satisfactory, we hopefully get Juan.
Btw, really really impressed by the Indian boys in the team and the gameplan of The gaffer.
Indian media never paid full attention to Indian football team's achievement. Let us concede 3 goals in next international match they will start jumping with guns and barrels.
Now that we have 2 very hard games with players tired, would it be a right thing to go with a completely new forward line with a 4-1-4-1 formation for at least 60 min ?
Dheraj Seriton-Don-Indian CB-Ivan Edu Romeo-Princeton-Amarjeet-Redeem Davindra
or should we go completely defensive with 3 CB (5 in the back)
I would like to give the MD 1&2 players rest so that they are fresh for return legs against Rayyan and Wahad Who knows with fresher Ortiz Brandon and Glans for those games we could extract more than a draw against them.
With Goa's success, Stimac has been getting a lot of online hatred. Fans have filled up his Twitter and other posts with negative comments. Sad to see the fickle minded nature of people. Everyone was happy when we drew with Oman and then this. The only good thing is that the heat is on Stimac and hopefully he will not make the mistake of playing Adil, Mashoor kind of players in big games. Honestly this performance is giving me hope that once Sunil, Sandesh etc are back we may be able to give some kind of fight to Qatar in June. I'm hoping that the rest of the national team players should also be pumped up and start believing in themselves that any result is possible. Even though Qatar is a different beast right now. They did not loose a single game on their Europe tour
Stimac may be a knowledgable coach, but his stupid decisions are going to affect our future matches. If he was the coach in Asian cup, we wouldnt have got the results that Constantine gave us. Right now with the players we have, we can match strong teams like UAE, Qatar only with counterstyle attacking football. I wonder whether he will select such players who can help us in such situations. We need to start winning matches if we are serious about qualifying for Asian Cup. I wonder how long he will experiment with the squad. He doesn't look like a Coach who can win matches for us.
