Sahal Abdul Samad has found first team starts hard to come by and the team's form, without him, hasn't improved...
Before and after most of Kerala Blasters' matches this season, head coach Eelco Schattorie has been asked about midfielder Sahal Abdul Samad. Questions have ranged from whether Sahal deserves to play more to if Sahal is actually a tad overrated at present.
The Dutch coach has been adamant about his reasoning that the 22-year-old Keralite needs to improve several aspects of his game, hinting that he can be a one-trick pony at times on the field with his passion for dribbling opponents into oblivion.
