Alejandro Menendez has completely changed Jobby Justin.

Although Jobby Justin scored 4 goals for the Red and Golds in the Calcutta Football League (CFL) season, it was deemed as an unsuccessful campaign for the Kerala-based striker largely due to his inconsistency and the team's lowly finish at 3rd in the Standings behind arch-rivals Mohun Bagan and Peerless SC.

He began the Hero I-League on a shaky not but has turned out a completely different player eventually under the guidance of former Celta Vigo and Real Madrid B Manager Alejandro Menendez. His quick runs and physical play has made a key part of Menendez's team formation. Jobby Justin has been quicky earning up possession out of nowhere on several occasions, thanks to his aggressive body language and instinct to be at the right place at the right time.

He scored a splendid over-head goal in the Kolkata Derby which allowed East Bengal get the better of their arch-rivals after 2 Years and 9 Months as Jobby Justin has now got his name written in Golden Letters in the Derby Record Books.

Jobby Justin is the leading Indian goal-scorer in the I-League so far with 5 goals from 8 games. A little bit of polishing in the finishing department and a tad bit of less self-play will certainly make Jobby Justin one of the most lethal Indian forwards some day.
