As the teams get ready for the biggest Indian footballing extravaganza, here’s your chance to create your own “bunch” and test your managerial skills.While you are the undisputed master of your team and it will be entirely up to you how you shape it into an unbeatable unit, ISL Fantasy Guru will always be at hand to provide you with valuable help.As the opening week approaches, Fantasy Guru runs you through some of the names you should definitely keep an eye on as you fine-tune your dream ISL team. In our ISL Fantasy Guru Part 1, we look at the best goalkeeping picks.Juan Calatayud (Atletico de Kolkata)Value - 5.5The Spanish custodian is in goal for reigning champions Atletico de Kolkata. It’s definitely advisable to take a good look at the man who has managed a clean sheet against the mighty Barcelona at the Nou Camp. The gritty shot stopper kept the likes of Messi, Xavi, Iniesta and David Villa at bay while playing for Hercules in the 2010-11 La Liga. With 85 clean-sheets in his 244 club appearances, the Malaga-born keeper definitely puts in a strong case to be the first choice custodian for your dream team.Edel Bete (Chennaiyin FC)Value - 6.5The Armenian definitely grabbed some eyeballs with his dazzling performances under the bar for last year’s champions Atletico de Kolkata. The 29-year-old only conceded six goals during his 840 minutes and boasted one of the highest save percentages in the Hero ISL and did not concede a single goal during the play-offs. Playing for Chennaiyin FC this season, the shot stopper will definitely be aiming for the golden glove this year and makes an excellent choice to be the last line of defence for your ISL Fantasy team.Arindam Bhattacharya (FC Pune City)Value - 5.5Arindam had a stellar performance for FC Pune City in Hero ISL 2014 and managed three clean sheets in his 11 appearances for the Punekars. The former Mohun Bagan and Churchill Brothers goalkeeper can sniff out danger and take adequate precautions in advance - a trait he demonstrated with 33 clearances during the course of last season. No goalkeeper had more in Hero ISL 2014.TP Rehnesh (NorthEast United FC)Value - 5.5TP Rehnesh was one of the impressive Indian goalkeepers from last season and made the position his own for NorthEast United FC. The 22-year-old featured in 12 of the Highlanders’ games last season and kept five clean sheets. The youngster will be looking to improve upon his display this time, and can prove to be a very smart choice for your fantasy team.That concludes our Part 1.
