@thelilcraftsman Already following you! Thanks for sharing this, I will try to incorporate this into my morning routine 😁

[HalfTime 🇮🇳 @halftimeind]

Do you feel frustration?

Do you feel like not supporting Indian Football anymore?

Do you feel so helpless that you wanna bash your laptop?

Just another day of embarrassment for Indian Football!

A 157th-ranked team beats us at home.

Stimac Masterclass!

@MetaTraitA That’s what! He seems to be way offended about ISL clubs not complying by his wishes! 🫠

[HalfTime 🇮🇳 @halftimeind]

If ISL clubs won't give him a month prep time, will he never care for the results?

Moreover, these are situation-oriented statements, before the match, he wanted to get those 3 points.

Now, since he failed in his plans and tactics, it's about focusing on Asian Cup!

Wow!!!

See the contradictions 👀?

@DishuMaan Stimac's idea was to bring in a physical winger who can take that pressure and create chances upfront. But all Udanta did, was backpass to the center backs! 🤡

[HalfTime 🇮🇳 @halftimeind]

So, here's a summary of yesterday's match:

- GSS should have started.
- Not going with the best lineup, proved costly.
- Sunil is good but now we need a second striker.
- We need to improve finishing.
- Nikhil needs to improve in tracking back and marking his player.

I still don't get why Bheke is preferred over Lalchungnunga and Mehtab, who are much better center backs!

India will be facing their first World Cup qualifier match tonight, and here's my probable starting lineup!

Just wanted to solidify our defense, that's why I preferred Subhasish and Roshan, over Akash & Nikhil.

Yesterday I realised, India will be in the World Cup, when-

1. Indian players are consistent performers and not one season wonders.

2. Even the worst ISL players know how to move the ball quickly, under pressure.

3. Young prospects want to play than being on the bench.

@suranjan_hemram I am not judging jhinghan on one match brother. Even in Fc goa, he is not able to play as a ball playing defender, moreover, his awareness levels has gone down.

If India wants to play good against higher ranked opponents, every small mistake will cost us.

[HalfTime 🇮🇳 @halftimeind]

Best Indian XI lineup ?? 🤔

[HalfTime 🇮🇳 @halftimeind]

@FCGKavishhh The only problem with Brandon is that he is slow and he is not able to dribble that well. Sahal can prove to be more clinical in tight spaces against higher ranked opponents.

[HalfTime 🇮🇳 @halftimeind]

@Ani_PZS Didn't include Jhinghan because he has become slow, lots of mistakes in pressure situations. Kaith is better in terms of playing from the back than GSS.

[HalfTime 🇮🇳 @halftimeind]

@DishuMaan Sahal ke sath likh kr hate nhi lena tha mb fans se bhai!

[HalfTime 🇮🇳 @halftimeind]

@relicF14 True, even if you don’t start him. Give him a chance to be on the bench. This will boost morale’s of many young players , and also the exposure.

[HalfTime 🇮🇳 @halftimeind]

Some thoughts about yesterday's game:

- We should have won yesterday easily.
- Mehtab & Rohith must be left out, and promising upcoming talents like Phalguni should be given chances.
- Roshan>> Nikhil, brings that calmness.
- Lack of squad depth is visible.
- 2nd half>>>1st half
