Substitutes
GK: Amrinder Singh (Mumbai City)
Like his Bengaluru FC club-mate Vineeth, Amrinder has been immense for his side since his return to the ISL, conceding zero goals and shutting out the opposition with four clean sheets in four games. Impeccable.
DF: Jerry Lalrinzuala (Chennaiyin FC)
The breakout young star of ISL 2016, Jerry had strong showings for last year's champs throughout the season, not letting the stage overawe him at any point.

The young left-back contributed two assists and also scored a brilliant goal in their final game of the season.
MF: Javi Lara (Atletico de Kolkata)
Perhaps the man with the best delivery from free-kicks and corners, Lara was a key part of this year's Atletico de Kolkata side, especially with their reliance on big, physical forwards such as Helder Postiga and Juan Belencoso.
He has so far scored three goals this season, and is a potent goal threat and works to offer lead striker Iain Hume support.
FW: Richard Gadze (Delhi Dynamos)
Forming a fearful frontline attack with Lewis and Marcelinho, Gadze had five goals and four assists for the side from the capital.
Still only 22, the Ghanaian’s best is probably still yet to come and his team will be expecting great things from him in the immediate future.
FW: Diego Forlan (Mumbai City)
Mumbai's marquee player turned in some good to very good performances through the season. He was the constant in their front three (when fit) with Sony Norde, Matias Defederico, Sunil Chhetri and Jackichand Singh alternating in the other spots.
Forlan was Mumbai's top-scorer with five goals and also chipped in with two assists.
