Stefan Constantine wants long term preparatory camp prior to this match. May be in July 1st week it will start. If we look closely at our chance to qualify as 3rd team it is very much possible. The key to this team will be central midfield. We can't blame SC for fielding Eugension and Shenaj together. Midfielder from Champion and Runners up of I league were selected which has been a long term demand from fans. Earlier we have seen inform Mehtab and Zakir were dropped for Climax and Pradip. They are playing first time together and may need few friendlies to gel properly. However I feel A 4-2-3-1 formation will be useful against Iran and my team will be -

Gurpreet

Pritam - Arnab - Sandesh - Dhana
Eugeson - Shehnaj
Rino - Lobo - Vineet
Sunil

Rion has been very disappointing may be because Jacki's lack of covering ability. So we can field Pritam and Rino together. However if Lalrindika becomes fit we can replace Rion with Dika. Dika will exchange wings with Vineet. My logic behind going with a single striker against Iran is Robin or Jeje whomever it will be will not be able to do any hart to their defence. Assuming Sandesh will be fit by that time.

Sorry Rino.

I think Romeo must be given chance now
And Bikramjit to

Ronny

Dika, Sehnaj and Eugene are good but not quick enough for a physical team like Iran

I saw our midfield in slow motion against oman, I think they use the latest technology in I-league where these players looked faster on tele than in reality they are really lumps in the middle.

@Negi ... sorrry I forgot to mention Lobo / Brandon for position just behind Sunil. While Brandon can play for 90 mins with his fitness I doubt Lobo's ability to play full 90 against such opponents. So Brandon is a must for NT now. 

Romeo and Vikramjit both shall be in the team and can replace right wing and center midfield depends upon the flow of the game. As all these young guns are attack minded can't take risk to field them together, if by any chance Iran open the flood gate we will be in embarrassing position.
