Subject: [U21] World Cup , by Krzysztof/

2025-07-03 02:03:35
9- My question goes to Alienomo:
You already played 7 World Cups so far and won a silver medal with Cuba; what advice would you give to a newbie NT-Coach like me, on his first participation in the World Cup?

Thanks for the question, I didn't expect to receive any, I usually manage to go quite unnoticed...
:D
It's funny that it was you who asked me the question! Let me explain: I was once in Berne (very beautiful, with lots of porticoes) and my avatar is a cut-out of a photo made when I was on holiday with a friend of mine in your city! Do you recognise the little monster from Invaders? It was on the wall of a church.
Anyway, I'll answer your question now...
:-)
I can't advise you on how to win the World Cup because I've never succeeded, but I can certainly suggest not to expect anything, to have fun and to always try to find creative ways to improve. As for me, I always focus on my team and don't study the opponents, but I realise that everyone has their own way of playing.
I hope I have answered in full, but I remain at your disposal!
;-)

Thank you, Alienomo, I like your answer! At least me noticed your palmares, so I asked you that question ;-)

Certainly it could be confusing to analyze an opponent too deep and forgetting about the best tactics and strengths, which you can achieve with your current team. It's a challenge and for me it's full excitment and fun to manage my team on this World Cup.

I somehow remember this little monster, but I could not really say on which church I saw this :-)

Good luck to you!

9. You can ask a question to one of the selectors of the current U21 World Cup tournament, please choose one selector write who you chose and ask one question here for him , this selector will definitely answer you. I am waiting for the selected selector and your question to him about the World Cup U21 Tournament and his national team or style of leading the national team.
9- Germanek What is Italy U21's problem right now? Is it technical, tactical or is it due to other factors?


Alienomo - thank you very much for your question.
First of all I hope that poor games of Italy u21 will disappear during World Cup. I had similar situations during my adventure with u21 in Czech Republic and later during World Cup I played good matches.
I think that I need always more time to adapt new players to my tactics.
In Italy u21 I have issue with scores and this challenge I have first time. It happened during WCQ and now during friendly matches.
This is something that I need to solve ASAP, because match against Venezuela is coming.

Coach: Portugal U21 / Don S


U21 World Cup - Group E


Don S




1. At the very beginning write a few words about yourself and your country where you live , what is worth visiting , what is worth eating at your place ?
1- As Brasil is a big country I guess it's important to say I'm from the northeast region, in this moment of the year we celebrate the famous São João, in which we have a lot of music, dancing festivals and tipical food for like two months. I am from Ceará state and here we have a lot of beautiful beaches, ppl of all the country and the world come to visit.
About food, as we are in São João, im adding here the dish I like the most of it, the Vatapá, is a chicken or shrimp based creamy food and it takes pepper and dendê oil so its a little spice, its usually served with rice and paçoca. top tier food right here!

Vatapá


2. Remind us how your young national team fought in the U21 World Cup Qualifiers, what do you remember most from this competition ?
2- It comes to Romania being the real pain in the ahh as it should be, since they had a far superior team thus we ended losing both matches (0-1 and 0-3). As we were the 3rd pot team, our fight was for 2nd place and the 2nd pot team (Chile) for some reason didn't manage to have a good campaign, we beat them 3-0 then we drew the second leg, they also drew and lost against the 4th Pot team (Egypt U21 - who had a good campaign). And after all, we lost to Egypt at the last round (1-0), but as we had done our home work previously we could even lost 0-8 and yet classify ;)


3. How do you rate your group and your chances in the group at the U21 World Cup ?
3. Our group is kinda balanced, but we are the team with the most limited squad and that can make a big difference at the end, we are the 4th force of the group so our chances are tight. I'd say the qualifications chances are something like Colombia 80%, Australia 50%, Slovensko 45%, Portugal 25%.


4. Who is the biggest star of your young national team ?
4. Our midfielder Adil Canosa, and he's 0 form :)
Adílio Canosa DEF/MID

5. How do you rate your national team compared to other national teams at the U21 World Cup ?
5. Let's say the best team is a 10 and the worst is a 0, we're like 2,5 (skull emoji)

6. Name the 5 favorites to win the U21 World Cup this season ? Write a few words why you think so.
6. Polska, Romania, Magyarország, Deutschland and Brasil. The top 4 (for obsious reasons) and Brasil because of the coach gordo(fat man)

7. Surprise means the Black Horse of the Tournament will be?
7. Colombia.


8. Name 3 selectors at this tournament who you think have great skills, and will definitely help their national team win a medal at the U21 World Cup
8- . gordo(fat man), jotafred and idk pick someone randomly and say I chose (except for kolmo)

9. You can ask a question to one of the selectors of the current U21 World Cup tournament, please choose one selector write who you chose and ask one question here for him , this selector will definitely answer you. I am waiting for the selected selector and your question to him about the World Cup U21 Tournament and his national team or style of leading the national team.
9- Kolmo , the Venezuela coach. not a question just hope he sh*t on his pants just when he arrives at work, bc we scheduled a u20 friendly match last season and they came to the game with U21 squad then we lost (0-4) which ruined our goal of climbing in the rank so thats it :)

10. Name the 5 favorites to medal at the U21 World Cup.
10- The top 3 ranked, Brasil (fat man is there) and Colombia

sorry for taking so long to reply I just kept postponing lol

TayfunAras


1. At the very beginning write a few words about yourself and your country where you live , what is worth visiting , what is worth eating at your place ?
1- Hello, I am Tayfun Aras, I am 37 years old. I live in Izmir, Türkiye.

Turkey is a country surrounded by seas with wonderful tourism regions. Istanbul, Antalya, Muğla, Izmir and for those who love green nature, the Eastern Black Sea region are places to see with its wonderful nature.


2. Remind us how your young national team fought in the U21 World Cup Qualifiers, what do you remember most from this competition ?
2. Coach Akhenatan carried the tour to the Azerbaijani national team and achieved great success. Since he did not choose to continue, I became the head of the team with the choice of the Azerbaijani community. We finished the group in 2nd place with our Azerbaijani national team, behind the Colombian national team, and took our place in the World Cup.


3. How do you rate your group and your chances in the group at the U21 World Cup ?
3- Frankly, I was surprised. It's a great misfortune to be in a group like this. It's a great misfortune to be drawn against Poland and Romania, the two strongest teams in the U21 national team rankings, and England, who have a good coach. To be honest, it's a miracle to advance in this group.


4. Who is the biggest star of your young national team ?
4. I think we have a balanced team.

5. How do you rate your national team compared to other national teams at the U21 World Cup ?
5- If we can make it out of this group by a miracle, I think we can at least advance to the semi-finals. But our job is very difficult, it is up to miracles.

6. Name the 5 favorites to win the U21 World Cup this season ? Write a few words why you think so.
6- Poland, Romania, Türkiye, Brazil and Hungary are my candidates for the championship.

7. Surprise means the Black Horse of the Tournament will be?
7- Croatia national team can surprise under coach 2posto


8. Name 3 selectors at this tournament who you think have great skills, and will definitely help their national team win a medal at the U21 World Cup
8- *Our Turkish national team coach _ÖzGüR_
*Brazil national team coach Gordo.
*Romania national team coach Petru


9. You can ask a question to one of the selectors of the current U21 World Cup tournament, please choose one selector write who you chose and ask one question here for him , this selector will definitely answer you. I am waiting for the selected selector and your question to him about the World Cup U21 Tournament and his national team or style of leading the national team.
9. I don't have any questions

10. Name the 5 favorites to medal at the U21 World Cup.
10. Poland, Romania, Türkiye, Brazil and Hungary
