My goal scoring streak in the inter IT tournament has put me in a
predicamennt. Basically because it hass ended. The balls that once
sailed in are now hitting the post, the passes that came right to my
feet are going a yard askew and the smoothly rolling ball that I once
dispatched accurately now hits a bad spot on the ground just when I'm
about to hit it. Not to mention that many balls that I ferociously hit
head straight for the keeper.
I've been wondering what has changed. The ground has changed. I must say
that the ground on which the tournament was played was a much better
one. The people with whom I play have changed. The position in which I
play has changed. In the tournaments I played attacking centre midfield,
by necessity. Now, I've gone back to the right wing. The ironic part is,
myy team (whichever one it is) does much better with me on the wings. I
guess the structure of the teams that I play for and against is very
different to the one we had adopted during the tournament.
The quality of strikers now is much better. Maybe thats why I'm more
suited to a role of a provider than that of a scorer nowadays. With
people like Bhanda in the forward line, my ability to give accurate long
passes gains greater importance. And I must say, that skill is a good as
ever.
Whatever my role maybe, a provider or a scorer, I'm enjoying as much as
ever before. Thats what really matters.
