If he fails to recover, it would be a serious blow to EB. EB has only one foreign CF, the second not being available before the Jan transfer window. The lesser said about the Indian strikers like Balwant, Jeje the better.The team cannot always look to Pilkington and Maghoma for goals
Excellent!! Existing foreign striker injured and uncertain, the one expected to arrive in talks with another club. One Indian striker looks more like a wrestler than a soccer player and another showed in his first match that he has forgot how to control a ball. What an excellent ISL debut season for the century-old club.
Our media team, lethargic to a fault, has no updates on the injury status of the player/s and in our interviews, the coach is only asked softball questions as to how he finds the football atmosphere in India blah blah
We should get Willis Plaza or Adjah or both for this season. Fowler needs to put under pressure by management, a Director of Football is the need of the hour. He isn't some experienced coach and with a pathetic Indian squad, Fowler's messup with the foreign striker's someone needs to find a vision and guide the team from a long term perspective. Fowler can just be the coach, if he delivers. Else in January window, we should get someone with more experience.
Disagree. EB played a good game with almost 60% ball possession in the first match of the season with barely about couple of weeks of training. Plus the Team is new with some howler of domestic signing and Bagan had almost the same team of last year.Their foreigners looked good especially the midfielders and they created excellent moves and Balwant himself missed two golden chances.
Yes they need a striker and definitely not Plaza and Adjah - these two guys cannot compliment Fowler's style of play. The person who needs to be axed is Renedy; just like his old friend Bhutia, he has managed to select all injured/aged Indian players.
Renedy didn't sign Balwant, Lyngdoh, Vineeth, etc Alvito did
EB had the ball because ATKMB likes to sit deep and attack on counter. They will be caught out easily against sides who press up the field. We need to get a striker ASAP.
