ISL 2017: How Kerala Blasters could line up next season

5-4-1 Formation

The Blasters could also use this alternative

The most adaptive setup for this Kerala Blasters squad could be the 5-4-1, which could help mask some of their deficiencies in central midfield.

Like the previously mentioned setups, this strategy may also feature the likes of Roy Chowdhury as the custodian, and Brown, Jhingan, and Lakic-Pesic to deal with opposition attacks.

In both the defensive flanks, the services of Anto and Lalruatthara may be retained. In midfield, however, Meulensteen may opt for different tactics. In this particular structure, Pekuson could play in midfield alongside the energetic Milan.

Vineeth and Hume feature in more advanced positions, while Berbatov is the lone striker up front.
