I really hope that the indian football team does well at next years asian cup in doha QATAR. The team is in training in europe playing second and third division Portuguese teams. I guess to be fair most of Asian quality except for Korea and Japan is on par with the second and third division sides of Europe.
This years world cup is evidence of that where none of the middle east teams like Iran or Saudi Arabia made it.
I think Houghton the national coach has missed a trick here he should have chosen some of the U-19 stars who are playing real well just to bleed them in an international arena.
There are a couple of suspect players in this national squad people like Sushil singh, who has absolutely no talent as was evident during the SAARC cup in Bangladesh. I would have liked it if he had taken Jeje who played well during that tournament.
Abhishek Yadav is another player who has a lot of potential but seeing him play reminds me of how lazy he has been, he hasn't done anything at the club level also.
Good luck India, i hope we come back with some respect.
