Capdevilla, Garcia, Del Piero ?
Are you guys thinking of starting a football league or a football league for the elderly ?
Geez....these guys won't even get contracted in some of the lesser paced leagues like the MLS, the Seria A or even the Turkish Super Lig where traditionally players well past their prime have gone for some playing time or one last pay cheque !
It's not about there performance (although I think you highly underestimate them), but it's about getting PR for this sport and the league in India, which is still dominated by Cricket of course. Every team is suppose to have 1 star player, to obviously create enough PR and hype to increase acceptance and interest. The fact that players like these chose to come to India, rather than to play in the US or Gulf countries alone shows the potential.
