5 players from Hero I-League 2017-18 seasons we would like to see in India National Team

3. Raynier Fernandes

Raynier is probably one of the best creative midfielders in I-League as de displayed verve and imagination time and again.

Dipanda Dicka’s double goal in the return derby against East Bengal won all the accolades but Raynier slipped under the radar despite his stellar performance in the midfield partnering Yuta Kinowakai was decisive to keep possession and controlling the game.

The 22-year-old has a remarkable vision, great feet and his movement on and off the ball can break the line in multiple ways to feed the forward line with incisive passes.

Gifted with his skills to construct attacks, keeping possession and passing range Raynier could be a potent addition to Indian National team given the fact that inconsistent players who are irregular for their club teams like Holicharan Narzary and Anirudh Thapa surprisingly find a place in the midfield department of the National team.
