Only surprise to me is the exclusion of Vibin who was solid even in the India debut. This season he is the only bright spot with pass accuracy of 89 one of the highest in ISL.
Jithin MS also has 2 goals and 5 assists this season. He is versatile in the front line.
Why are we celebrating return of 40 year old striker back to NT ? Is India that bad that we can produce a single striker who can perform atleast half of what chettri does ?

It only reflects the poverty of Indian football (taking nothing away from Sunil's achievements)

The answer is no. We don't have anyone who can match his ability to score goals, be expressive, thrive under pressure, and consistently give his best in every game. Unfortunately, we are seriously lacking in this area. I hate to admit it, but if our priority is to qualify for the Asia Cup—which should be our minimum standard—then we need him.
AIFF is betting on a stupid strategy that we qualify now and then in the next year we will miraculously find a striker who can replace him. They do not want more negative press on their heads, they already have enough negative on the media. Now if we bow out of Asia cup they think that is what India typically does so they don't have to explain to anyone. AIFF is a sham. As a fan I just wanna see someone who can actually score goals for a change.
