Hosting U-17 WC for what ? Development of Football ? Can't beat even Nepal 2 matches in a row. Can't compete in any International Tournament, but very keen to host U-17 WC.......why ? May be this is the first step forward to take Indian Football to a new level. Whether that level is above the present or below is debatable. Only positive impact will be facelift of the stadia which otherwise wouldn't take place.
Don't get after Kolkata Derby, that doesn't form the part of the topic. One may be zealous of the fan following of certain Kolkata Clubs but let him keep that within himself. Not to the topic...... will it look nice if India loses each of the 3 group matches by 5 - 6 goals and finish without scoring even 1 ? What is our rating in U-17 Asian stage ? I agree we need to try different things, but that should be something which generates interests in people and this can be achieved only by decent performance in some International tournaments where not the top teams are playing. This will generate confidence and the bar can be raised gradually.
