Manvir Singh
Apart from playing as the centre forward, he is also comfortable chipping in as the right-winger providing flexibility for the manager. Playing under Antonio Lopez, he has been astute defensively making him an ideal candidate for false 9 roles too. (1/2)

He ranks within the 70th percentile in dribbles attempted, offensive duels, progressive runs, shots, shots on target accuracy and touches in the box. His shots, shots on target and touches in the box indicate that he is active in the box and manage to take shots frequently. (2/2)
William Lalnunfela
In India where the football culture has more or less revolved around pacy counter-attacks, he may just be the man to fit the bill. His off-the-ball movements may raise a few eyebrows but if he can work on that he can become a deadly option up-front. (1/2)

He created 1.21 shots per 90 in the last ISL which put him in the 74th percentile. His xA and touches in the box stats put him in the 65th and 60th percentile, which is above average. However, a lot is left to be desired in his ability to take shots. (2/2)
Bidyashagar Singh
An Indian striker who won the golden boot in the national league by scoring 12 goals last season, let me present to you Bidyashagar Singh, the talisman who represents TRAU FC in the I-League. (1/2)

His ability to take shots, tell us about his goal-scoring prowess. He does not seem to take a lot of touches in the box. Usually, a player with a fewer number of touches but more shots and goals can be classified as a poacher and the same can be done with him. (2/2)
