Subject: Tabs on Indian NT and general players

So at the end of every season, we'll just compile a list of Indian players who are no longer eligible for U21 NT. This can be a useful reference for the senior NT coach so that he can look out for potential senior NT players and can keep a look out for them.

Season 56

Vincent Chandramouli (GK) - Definitely senior NT -
Jaswinder Salil (GK) - 7 mat
Akbar Lanka (DEF) - Best among the defs - 48 mat
Chandan Rahulan (DEF) - 15 mat
Ratan Subbarayan (DEF) - 16 mat
Akbar Dasdidar (DEF) - 11 mat
Kishore Muthukumar (DEF) - 5 mat
Lanel Naini (MID) - Best among the mids - 29 mat
Jagadish Tilak (MID) - 14 mat

* Players highlighted in bold are the ones have potential for senior NT and were the ones who were important for U21. Others, feel free to add in your opinions if you feel some other players too are worth looking out for. The season number is the number from previous season.

Have also compiled a list from season 55.

Season 55

Ajayan Nachik (DEF) - 33 mat
Vijith Bhatti (DEF) - 12 mat
Shibu Sivasubramaniam (MID) - 36 mat
Tushar Vasumati (MID) - 10 mat
Ankan Elayavalli (MID) - 39 mat
Mahendra Vyapari (MID) - 0 mat

* Players highlighted in bold are the ones have potential for senior NT and were the ones who were important for U21.

Looks like season 48 juniors are more promising than the ones from season 47. Nachik and Shibu of course have a lot of potential.

You forgot Lanel Zev and Murli Rochan.

Lanel Zev and Murli Rochan are still part of U21. The players I have listed are no longer part of U21.

Oh ok....I thought the list was for those that will be leaving at the end of the season.

Season 57

Kashi Chohan (GK) - 1 mat
Bhavesh Smirti (GK) - 0 mat
Lanel Zev (DEF) - 55 mat
Anthony Sadiq (DEF) - 7 mat
Murli Rochan (MID/DEF) - 32 mat
Nikhil Nikhil (MID) - 48 mat
Hardip Anees (MID) - 29 mat
Satish Gambhir (MID) - 18 mat
Dominic Sundaramoorthy (ATT) - 40 mat
Sarabjith Suksma (ATT) - 31 mat

* Players highlighted in bold are the ones have potential for senior NT and were the ones who were important for U21.

Very good job

Season 58

Harvinder Lavanya (GK) - 30 mat
Arun Chiba (DEF) - 29 mat
Senthil Munusamy (DEF) - 37 mat
Tomba Shilpa (ATT) - 41 mat
Stanley Manohari (ATT) - 8 mat

I reckon Shilpa isn't as good as Sundaramoorthy or Suksma who were our strikers last season.
Munusamy is better than Rochan, Rahulan, Subbarayan purely as a defender. He might be similar to Lanka but not as good as Zev. So Munusamy will be the stand out player graduating from the U21 team.

He is on TL very nice player!!!

Lolendra Subbarayan, age: 25
club: Szachcior Bródno, country: India
value : 312 600 000 Ft
wage: 3 675 000 Ft
formidable [11] form
incredible [13] tactical discipline
height: 178 cm, weight: 72.6 kg, BMI: 22.91

formidable [11] stamina tragic [0] keeper
incredible [13] pace good [7] defender
divine [17] technique good [7] playmaker
good [7] passing divine [17] striker

I saw him, but do you think he's worth the price? Especially since he's almost 26

If I had the money, I would buy it :) It's a big challenge to upgrade his pace from level 13 to 17. I think there is enough time for these 4 levels to move from 26 to 29 years old.
And of course, it is true that it is not worth paying such a big price anyway, but in small sokker nations (like India), all very good players are more valuable than, for example, if he was Hungarian.

If he is sold at 26, his fair price as per sokker-manager.net would drop to 6-9 mil euro.
Yes he is more valuable to us but we aren't the only people buying him. Anyone can buy him.
I may have bought him at the start of the season but since I will not be training pace for very much longer I won't buy him.

Season 59

Sarabjith Meyappan (GK) - 7 mat - 607 750 $
Tejas Satwant (ATT/MID) - 50 mat - 522 500 $
Arijith Biswas (DEF) - 46 mat - 480 250 $
Raman Najeeb (ATT) - 33 mat - 413 000 $
Vijay Mehul (DEF) - 36 mat - 412 750 $
Mark Varati (MID) - 27 mat - 331 750 $
Savio Sreekanthan (MID) - 17 mat - 298 750 $

Have left out Ajayan Makarand because I don't think he is in the reckoning.

These juniors are much better than the juniors from previous season. However, Senthil Munusamy from previous season is better than both the defenders from the current season.

After Lanel Zev, Tejas Satwant is only the 2nd player who manages to play 50 NT games in U21.

this year is very bad

Which players do you think have potential to be similar to current crop of Indian NT? I'm not only talking about this season, but for all seasons that I have listed. Even if they don't have potential, since we don't have any options, we'll have to utilize them.
