Subject: Ιndia NT U21

Firstly, the finishing by our forwards was pathetic. Are they the best forwards we have at U21? I thought the passing was quite sublime. The forwards didn't make use of the brilliant through balls.

Also I think Malta's winger on the right hand flank gave them an edge as he was unmarked.

Noel Sathasivam hardly got to touch the ball. I think Ramchand was good enough to handle the central defense. Do we have another defender like Ramchand? If we do, then what about trying to put Ramchand in centre defense with 2 wing backs and put Noel Sathasivam in Kathiravan's place behind the Forwards? That way we can win most of the balls in central midfield where we lost out.
Atleast against similar opposition coz we'll need Sathasivam in defense against the bigger teams like spain,italy,poland etc.

These are the best forwards, I think the finishing looked bad because of the strenght of Malta's goalkeeper.
Sathasivam and Ramchand are by far the best defenders, so no other options there.
Our midfield ruled, but we miss a 2nd defensive MID.
Also Kathiravan won't play behind the strikers again, thats for sure.
And the goalkeeper is quite a problem, I must prevent to have any shots at goal against us ;)
