Aidy Boothroyd is impressed with the young talent in Indian football. And he is someone who has worked with some of the brightest stars of English football, like Bukayo Saka, Phil Foden and Dominic Solanke when they were juniors.
Boothroyd was the manager of the England youth teams for seven years. He worked with Gareth Southgate, the much respected England manager, for five years. And he was the man who once took Watford to the Premier League from the brink of relegation.
He could not achieve something quite like that with Jamshedpur FC, his first team outside England. The team had a poor ISL, but it reached the semifinals of the Super Cup, here a few days ago, playing some attacking football.
