Kalu Uche was probably the leagues third best striker best season behind Coro and Miku. He did have the best strike rate though among all the strikers, and yet he can't find himself a spot in the starting XI in this ATK side.

He is the best striker ATK have in their squad, and in the two games that ATK have played so far, he has only made brief cameo appearances so far.

Cavin Lobo and Eugenson Lyngdoh are players who can walk into any Indian teams playing XI on merit and yet they have found themselves on the bench yet again for ATK. ATK lacked creativity in the middle of the park, and both Lobo and Lyngdoh are precisely the types of players who can work that magic for a team from the centre.

Had the likes of Lobo, Lyngdoh and Uche started for ATK then things could have been different for the team from the city of joy.
