🚨Indian football fans should be worried

India are currently around 138th in the FIFA Rankings. If we slip below 140, we'll have to play Round 1 of the 2030 FIFA World Cup qualifiers in 2027 instead of entering directly in Round 2

Looking at our current form, that's a real possibility
Next up: 🇮🇩 Indonesia (ASEAN Cup)
🇲🇾 Malaysia (ASEAN Cup)
🇸🇬 Singapore (ASEAN Cup)
Two friendlies vs New Zealand🇳🇿

Every one of these matches affects our FIFA ranking

We already struggle to beat Bangladesh and Singapore consistently. If Khalid Jamil keeps relying on the same old senior players who have disappointed india over and over again instead of giving opportunities to younger..hungrier footballers, nothing will change

This is the time to rebuild..not repeat the same mistakes
Indian football can't afford to keep going backwards

@d_subrataCE Alright got it but ashish Negi has reported that aiff is considering him to be the manager..

[Ashish Negi @7negiashish]

A professional football coach is now being forced and pressured by the AIFF to take one particular individual as the team manager for the India U-15 team at the FIFA U-15 World Cup & Festival because of people’s opinions on Instagram.

This is another new low for the AIFF.

Here are the results when a similar stunt was pulled for the AFC Futsal Asian Cup 2024 qualifiers.

🚨 OFFICIAL: 🇮🇳 Sadhwick Raj (16)
has signed for Stomil Olsztyn U-17 after a successful one-week trial✍️🇵🇱

The young Indian midfielder is currently with the team for pre-season and will compete in the CLJ U-17 — Poland's top-tier U-17 league..

📌 Previously represented AP Podlasie in both the CLJ U-17 and CLJ U-17 II.

⭐ An exciting part of the move: once the current CLJ U-17 season ends, Sadhwick has been offered the opportunity to train and play with Stomil Olsztyn's senior team, which competes in the Polish IV Liga (4th tier)

He moved to poland at age 14 for development and he aims to keep climbing the Polish football pyramid and one day play in the Ekstraklasa, Poland's top division.

A big step forward for another young Indian footballer in Europe. 🇮🇳⚽

•Putting Bibiano Fernandes & Ranjit Bajaj together in the India U-15 setup is a disaster....they cannot work together

•The AIFF needs to pick a lane: either give Bibiano full charge of the squad and staff, or hand the entire project over to Ranjit Bajaj. Merging them won't work

•If India wins, Bajaj’s PR machine will claim 100% of the credit. But if India loses all the blame gets dumped on Bibiano
