“We may have to split our team. It will be easier if they (AFC) allow more foreign players. I know that in the AFC Cup they allow five foreigners on the roster and three to play. I think the President's Cup is more liberal (lenient).”

churchill signing all these names is one thing but the main thing is how will they gel with the team and how fast can the adapt.
The news from inside is that they signed Tamba as he has played in India before. Going for a new face at the eleventh hour could be suicidal. So they took the the safety first approach and signed a okayish player.
Sunil we all know will adapt soon. And Belal is just a backup.

Why I get the feeling that people have been reading all our comments on IFN and creating an article for their own website.
I could have written this article 4 days ago(except the sunil news). If you notice every website has started breaking news today morning.

But dias said they are looking for an African(Senegalis) defender.
Lamine Tamba is from Senegal.
Churchil Brothers have roped in the services of Indian national team skipper and former Air India defenders until the end of the season.

Mistaken him with Othalo tabia.
