David James – Infrastructure in India is non existent
David James has blasted infrastructure facilities in India by terming that football needs a major overhaul if it wishes to be a huge sport in the land.
"Four, maybe five sides, were playing on cricket pitches. The coaching is another issue."
"Short of spending an absolute fortune to get younger marquee players, you had to go down the road of getting household names who were a little later on in their years, if not at the end of their careers in some cases."
"They have got to do some heavy investment, the infrastructure is near on non-existent." the former Liverpool player said. "Training facilities are very, very hard to come by.
Along with infrastructure he also noted the fact that there are hardly any qualified coaches in India.
"There is a severe lack of qualified coaches in India."
He said: "As far as wanting more of it, yes, for sure. I always fancied the chance of doing a manager's job and I'm enjoying this one."
