\"NarenderKATHMANDU: <\/strong>Against the backdrop of the Indian U-19 boys making all dream big, the fact that former Indian defender Mahesh Gawli, currently the Assistant Coach of the squad, has silently been \u201cworking on the basics\u201d has almost gone unnoticed.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe ultimate aim is to develop these players technically,\u201d Gawli states. \u201cHence, I always focus on the basics. After all, one can only become a better player if the basics are rock solid. I bring them into game situations, and assess their performance and decision-making,\u201d he informs, on the sidelines of the SAFF U-18 Championship.<\/p>\n

One of Gawli\u2019s trainees, Narender Gahlot is already with the Senior Team, the icing on the cake being his header against Syria in the Hero Intercontinental Cup in Ahmedabad earlier this year.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt the senior camp, all players always ask me about my training experience under Mahesh-sir. I am privileged to have him as my coach. He is so patient. I always rush to take help from him. He is always working on my passing, positioning, organizing the defence,\u201d Narender quips.<\/p>\n

\u201cNarender is a promising defender. He is talented, and has a good attitude on and off the field. I have been working with him from the Indian Arrows, and he has been developing very fast. Whatever I teach him, he picks up very fast,\u201d Gawli, one of India\u2019s best-ever defender since the 1990s, certifies.<\/p>\n

\u201cAfter going to the National Team, he has raised his level. He understands that  he needs to continue improving. The U-19 boys are watching him as he is representing the Senior team. It\u2019s time for Narender to lead by example,\u201d Gawli goes on.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe has to improve the other players by continuously improving himself. He has learnt a lot being with the Senior team. I hope he keeps doing better and serves as a role model for the others.\u201d<\/p>\n

Narender admitted that \u201cMahesh Sir\u2019s inputs have always proved invaluable.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cHe is such a legend. He won the best defender award 5 times in his career (in the I-League). His precision, and decision making is something I aim to emulate,\u201d Narender comments.<\/p>\n

 <\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cHe is so meticulous. He is so fast to point out our minor errors. He is such a hard taskmaster. He corrects then every training session, and match. We do video analysis of our sessions together, and he explains to us where we need to improve,\u201d Narender explains.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
