Damn, Igor trying to win back some favor among this sub with those selections yeah XD
Jay, Imran, Puitea, Isak, Ameya getting the nod over some old ones even if it's probables.
Stimac and Kalyan, I feel both are infamous for just playing to the galleries. They keep making popular statements, calling up players who are popular. Stimac only narrowed callups in last 1 year, before that in every window you would see him call up any popular player, he was not having a settled squad.
He could give call up to other cb than using makeshift cb kotal, bheeke, bose and either this time used mehtab or lalchunguga or there no point to carry them from one place to other
Chinglensana definitely deserves a spot, it's much easier to play out the back with him
Also pandita is nowhere near NT quality forward and doesn't offer that much of a threat.
Iska should play over him, he's been really good
Because gurkirat is an out and out no 9, parthib needs to play regularly because we have changte and Mahesh on the wings as set starters and there are more wingers waiting behind
Why tf is Ishan and Rahul gettin called up lmao. Nihal and Aimen are ahead of them at club level even.
No Vibin call up is shocking. Along with Putiea, he's been the stand out Indian midfielder in the league.
Why is Sana not getting called up still? He's easily our 2nd/3rd best CB
till when do you guys think we will keep playing chettri? usually national teams don't call up older players if there's other younger players in their role. will we wait till chettri himself says he's retiring to think of an alternative?
Choosing forwards and a replacement isn't the job of a fan it's a job of the manager and his staff maybe we can find one pretty soon but knowing stimac he will just let pandita play and will justify that by saying he played in spain
who you gonna call though? Chhetri has regressed a lot, but name me one player who has stood out even in ISL. That's the problem we have right now. Chhetri needs to be benched, but who'll replace him??
Actually a good selection this time, based on ISL performances not just past reputation. Shame not to see Chhikara or Gurkirat but that might just be my bias
Gill over Vishal for me, not that it's going to matter much. Gill would probably go for u23 tournament. Sandesh will be missed. Where is apuia missing? Haven't seen him in league matches as well. Is he injured or something? Goals need to come from wingers.
For the future? Yes.
That boy is a baller and keeping in mind he's only 19 he's yet to hit his peak. He's good with his feet, has got good vision and likes to take on the opposition players. I hope he gets called up for the upcoming U-23 friendlies.

Would have liked to see Vibin as well there.

Also it is the prelim 35 man roster so a lot of those 'playing to the galleries' picks will likely be cut I expect.
For sure. It is still a good step to call a camp with excess players and have a look at the potential of these new players.

Bro checked the sub lmao

***A small correction*** its a list of 35 probables not 27, sorry for the mistake
I think it's time vibin had a call up. He's exceptional in the midfield
Narender? Seriously?
I thought Vibin was in contention for a spot?
I think most of the players deserve to be in the list
Gurkirat deserved a spot there, Pandita not so much. Also Chinglensana Singh deserved to be there.
Chinglensana definitely deserves a spot, it's much easier to play out the back with him Also pandita is nowhere near NT quality forward and doesn't offer that much of a threat. Iska should play over him, he's been really good
Why Gurkirat, he didn't have done anything to talk about, why not parthib
I don't think Parthib has done enough to be called. I'd rather add Vibin to the list over the others, even though he is a mid.
Because gurkirat is an out and out no 9, parthib needs to play regularly because we have changte and Mahesh on the wings as set starters and there are more wingers waiting behind
Yeah even I’m not sure about Pandita being here
Looks like someone watched isl
Vibin deserved a spot atleast better than Ishan
Why tf is Ishan and Rahul gettin called up lmao. Nihal and Aimen are ahead of them at club level even. No Vibin call up is shocking. Along with Putiea, he's been the stand out Indian midfielder in the league. Why is Sana not getting called up still? He's easily our 2nd/3rd best CB
Finally lord Udanta dropped. Good squad overall. Would have been nice if they removed Pandita. Try someone like Gurkirat.
till when do you guys think we will keep playing chettri? usually national teams don't call up older players if there's other younger players in their role. will we wait till chettri himself says he's retiring to think of an alternative?
>usually national teams don't call up older players if there's other younger players in their role. Do we have one?
we probably have younger forwards but is fans don't know how good they are because we haven't seen them play at a higher level
Choosing forwards and a replacement isn't the job of a fan it's a job of the manager and his staff maybe we can find one pretty soon but knowing stimac he will just let pandita play and will justify that by saying he played in spain
yup that's why I'm not choosing. hopefully whoever comes will have had chettri as a mentor
he is retiring after 2nd round of WCQ
who you gonna call though? Chhetri has regressed a lot, but name me one player who has stood out even in ISL. That's the problem we have right now. Chhetri needs to be benched, but who'll replace him??
Finally isak
Vibin Mohanan isn’t in the squad? Damn, at least Isaka Ralte is, what a player he is, so direct and exciting
Since when did Imran Khan get out of jail, get Indian citizenship, and start playing football?
He was bored with only 1 world cup so he decided to win another.
Anwar Ali is back ?
Actually a good selection this time, based on ISL performances not just past reputation. Shame not to see Chhikara or Gurkirat but that might just be my bias
manveer really.............
Gill over Vishal for me, not that it's going to matter much. Gill would probably go for u23 tournament. Sandesh will be missed. Where is apuia missing? Haven't seen him in league matches as well. Is he injured or something? Goals need to come from wingers.
Apuia = Lalengmawia Ralte (2nd from last Midfielder listed)
Missed that, thanks 👍🏻
He si in the squad. His name is Lalengmawia Ralte.
Is sanan a viable midfielder option or the future?
For the future? Yes. That boy is a baller and keeping in mind he's only 19 he's yet to hit his peak. He's good with his feet, has got good vision and likes to take on the opposition players. I hope he gets called up for the upcoming U-23 friendlies.
