Subject: [NT]World Cup Qualifiers

Israel qualified on WC

But Belgia not :)

Scotland is in the WC..
First time i take a team to the WC after.. mmm.. 16-17 seasons as NT manager..
:-O

so, 16-17 lost seasons :))

the world cup is the real deal :P

For me it isn't, it was challenging to manage weaker NT's and make them better in the long term and i like it a lot, sure it's also nice to win almost every game as well with a strong team..
The WC is based on 90% luck as most of the teams are around the same level and all managers are experienced ones, the random is a key factor..

ahm...nope i don't agree with you. There are always little or big mistakes that comes with tactics and that have a wide influence on the final result! There is a random factor, without that Daehan Minguk couldn't reach a 1:1 against Belarus. But with some work, Belarus could create a lot more opportunities to score...they played with one striker and 5 defenders. So there f. ex. it is not only luck, even though Belarus should have won with some goals more, but they got no end of trouble to score!..the draw is very unlucky, but the coach could have increased the probability of a victory a lot with better tactics against the underdog Daehan Minguk.

Or...you could watch the tactics of my last opponent Shqiperia, maybe that guy tried sth but it was not the the real blast at all:) Well it is the qualification i know but there are a lot of mistakes in tactics of the best teams too.

So...if you name the hazard as key factor, that's wrong for me...but you probably can come up with that when you will be defeated by other teams by chance...:)

are you serious..?:)

hmm...it is hard to beat an opponent like Switzerland i know. They have better players than you Freddy_Paito, but it is hard to counter such a team with a defense like you played. Sometimes two DEFs, sometimes 4 ore 5?! It was a mess there. The attackers of Switzerland were always able to place themselves at the same line as the last DEF of yours. So it was difficult for your Defs and they couldn't help each other to disturb the opponent.

And the left and right wing defensemen most of the time were placed more offensive than your central defenders...that was the reason that the swiss wing had almost a free day without defenders there. I would try to place your defenders in a way they can back up if the others are beaten.

Good luck:)

Beware of Spopo ^_^

Yeah, a good tactic can add to your chances to win (or get a better result) but the fact is you still need random to be on your side, especialy if the level of the teams is more or less close.

You can't control the cards, the injuries, the forms, the misses from one on one, the misses from 1 meter and so on..
:-)

If your players mids have divine or supervivine techniqhe and high taklin and playmaking..the oppopent mids...that dont have so high level skilled mids will take red cards..

eheh:))

Did that sound aggressive?..hmm...i just don't agree...that's what i wanted to say...^^


Beware of Spopo ^_^
Nono i am not dangerous, an anaconda sounds much more perilous:) They even call me Mr. Popo in chile

I also agree with you :)

Mr. Popo? They call me "Ana" in Romania :))

I won't let you place yourself in an underdog position, you're pretty dangerous :)

You can't control the cards, the injuries, the forms, the misses from one on one, the misses from 1 meter and so on..

no you can't...but the 90% was bullshit for me. You can increase the probability to create chances and finally score..or increase the probability to disturb the opponent strikers.

I write that because i want to give sort of counterbalance because there are too many managers who always think they'd lost because of bad luck...what can be true, but is mentioned too fast without knowing about mistakes ore weaknesses of the own tactics...

f.ex. there i often see managers complaining about lack of goals compared to opportunities...but the attackers weren't placed well...and had shots from far away.

I won't let you place yourself in an underdog position, you're pretty dangerous :)

i lost last WC...you won. Anaconda can't lose.


Ah Sharoni, this is a different thing here....Anaconda just can't lose, that's a fact...we all have to accept it!
