Nerijus Valskis (Jamshedpur FC)
ISL 2021-22: The Lithuanian is considered as one of the most prolific forwards in the ISL this season. It was in 2019-20 when he enjoyed his best time in the ISL plying his trade for Chennaiyin. Valskis scored 13 goals and guided the Marina Machans to the finals where they eventually lost.
He then followed Owen Coyle to Jamshedpur FC and despite being overburdened with the responsibility of scoring goals he scored eight goals last season and was one of the most threatening players in the league. He has returned again with shooting boots as he intends to replicate the 2019-20 season with the Men of Steel. He failed to hit the score in the first game against the Red and Golds despite getting several opportunities. He scored two goals in his last game against FC Goa.

Peter Hartley (Jamshedpur FC)
ISL 2021-22: The Jamshedpur FC captain was a pillar at the back for the Men of Steel against SC East Bengal. Hartley even stepped forward in a time of need and scored a very crucial goal in their 1-1 draw against the Red and Golds in their season opener. The English defender is easily one of the most underrated players in the league and will look to continue his rich vein of form against FC Goa.
Hartley’s presence in the middle will be very crucial for Jamshedpur FC. The Sunderland youth graduate has plied his trade for several English and Scottish teams starting from Bristol Rovers, Blackpool, Plymouth Argyle, Motherwell etc. It will be a big season for Hartley and if Jamshedpur FC are to reach the playoffs, a lot will depend on him.
