Unlike previous seasons, the Blasters are playing with more vigor, consistency and enthusiasm this season. There are many reasons for this, but the most important is the presence of coach Ivan Vukomanovich. The Blasters’ head was replaced by a Serbian coach named Ivan. Fans and football experts alike are saying the same thing. Speaking to Radio Mango yesterday, Sahal Abdul Samad, a Malayalee player of the Kerala Blasters, praised Ivan Vukomanovic and opened his mind about some other things related to the team.
What magic did Ivan bring to the Blasters?
During the conversation, Sahal was confronted with the question of what was the magic that Ivan Vukomanovic brought to the team. Sahal said Ivan knows exactly how to treat everyone on the team, from the players to the staff, and how he treats everyone, noting that he treats everyone equally and in the best possible way. Sahal also pointed out that this method of Ivan is the reason for the team’s excellent result this time.
After the win will be smashed in the dressing room
Sahal said the team celebrates all the victories in a very good way. Sahal said the victories would bring a lot of joy and it would make everyone more positive, adding that preparations for the next match would start as soon as one match was over. After the victory, Sahal said that they would break into the dressing room and the team bus, and that Khabra Bhai (Harman Jot Khabra) had a large speaker in his hand and would celebrate the victory by singing in it. At the same time, Sahal added that the dressing room would be sad if the match was lost.
Playing is cheating
Sahal said that this time the team is playing to cheat. Sahal said that this year has started well and he wants the end to be the same, adding that he hopes that the prayers and support of all will be there and that they (Kappadikkaan) are working hard here.
About having to play without fans
Sahal also shared the frustration of not being able to play in front of the fans in the background of Kovid. Sahal, who said he thought it would have been better if it had been in Kochi when he scored 2 or 3 goals this season, said it was very sad that he did not have fans.
Is Messi or Ronaldo the best player?
During the conversation, Sahal also faced the question of whether Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo is the best player. Commenting on Messi’s excellence, Sahal said that he has loved Messi since he was a child.
Messi and Ronaldo
“For whatever reason, I think Messi is cool. No matter what position he plays in, whether he’s a midfielder, a left-hander, a right-winger, a No. 10 player, a No. 9 player, he’s a great player (Messi). Sahal said about Messi.
“Ronaldo is a terrible danger inside the box. He can score anyway, score anytime, so that’s the difference I felt.” Sahal said and stopped.
What to do in free time
Sahal said he spends his free time watching movies and playing games. The young midfielder also made it clear that football is his favorite sport.

Did you miss Rahul?
Malayalee player Rahul KP is one of Sahal’s closest friends in Kerala Blasters. But Rahul, who was injured during the first match of the season this season, has been out of action for almost three months. Sahal said Rahul’s absence this time affected the team. Sahal said that Rahul’s greatest quality is his speed and he has the ability to run wherever the ball is. The Malayalee midfielder said that the positive energy that Rahul brings to the team is very cool and therefore he left the team’s biobable after the injury, giving the team a big miss.
Sahal’s performance this season
This is also the ISL season that saw Sahal perform at his best. Sahal, who has played 21 matches for Kerala so far in the 2021-22 season, has scored 6 goals and paved the way for one goal.
