Many months before the ISL launched, India's favorite cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar made it publicly clearly he wanted to own a club. Before we knew it, Tendulkar had his own club named after himself, reminding India and the world just how powerful of a figure he is. Whether it's on the field with the talent or off the field with its superstar owner, Kerala Blasters will make plenty of noise in the inaugural season.

All eyes will be on Michael Chopra this season, the former Newcastle United and Sunderland striker. Chopra impressed many in the Premier League, but still has plenty to prove to close the discussion on whether or not he could make the international side next to a Rooney or Michael Owen. While the quality of the ISL may not be up to par with the EPL, Chopra could end up struggling even more if he doesn't keep his focus.
