How should Simon Grayson best use Sunil Chhetri at BFC? (Khel Now)

How will Bengaluru FC head coach Simon Grayson use Sunil Chhetri in the Indian Super League or the Durand Cup? Here's an analysis.

The increasing hope of football returning to the Kanteerava Stadium will be a shot in the arm to both the players and the supporters, who have been starved of watching the Blues live since the pandemic began. A realistic target will be 8-10 goals and a couple of assists, bearing in mind that Roy Krishna is likely to be on penalty duty and Roshan Singh on free-kicks. Chhetri’s biggest strengths over the years have been his composure in the box and heading ability from deep crosses. His form and Ibara’s availability also relegated Chhetri to the bench at times. The club captain managed just four goals in 20 appearances, his lowest return for BFC in a season. Chhetri has scored 51 times and provided six assists in 112 starts for BFC. This equates to a whopping total of 0.51 goals and assists per 90.
