CHENNAI: It's a fresh start for Chennaiyin FC and new German coach Thomas Brdaric is looking to turn a few things around as they prepare for the Durand Cup opener on Saturday. Durand Cup is largely considered a pre-season event and Brdaric will try to gauge how his team has shaped up when they take on Army Red FT in a Group C match at Imphal.
CFC had a poor ISL outing last season and the German was brought in to ensure that the team goes back to their glory days when they won two titles. Brdaric wants to introduce the players to a new style of football. In the first game, the former Bayren Leverkusen defender has decided to field the strongest possible team and also try out some of the youngsters.
