Mohun Bagan have a man at the helm who has already won them the I-League. The modest gaffer, who likes to stay away from the limelight and push his team from behind, is one of their main weapons and surely knows the tricks which can help his squad cease early advantage in the league.

Sen’s task at hand would be to establish an understanding amongst this new group of players, but the policy of not being overdependent on stars will hold him in good stead.

The Mariners have always played attacking football under Sen’s guidance and as they have hired some quality strikers for the current season, the coach’s philosophy is most likely to be reciprocated on the pitch to break down some stubborn defensive units.
