Time Zone and Scheduling Challenges: What teams do you refer? how it is supposed to be ij international games? I dont understand, can you elaborate?

Well I react for this. In Senegal, friendly matches end late at night now without the International Cup, so I need set up the team late at night as check every player healthy at home manager trained NT player. When I have a cycling season in IRL, and I have to get up at 2 am saturday so early, I don't have time to set up teams on Saturday, but I manage to do it somehow. But many of other managers who don't have a schedule still have the opportunity to set up matches on Saturday. So I think it's ultimately possible, if I can sometimes do it with 4 hours of sleep.

So without this International Cup. I hadn't chance to sleep more.

Will you guys fix the assists not counting for most of plays?
Like an assist is a pass made to the scorer
And doesn’t fade away after 3 seconds of play like in your game
But still like this game.

Whole schedule is based on the country time not on manager who is NT coach right now. Because it could be different problem if you get someone from South America. And Senegal NT games start at 14:00 Soller time. There should be enough time to set up your NT squad.

But maybe some small adjustments could be done.

I usually wake up at dawn on Saturdays and get home around 17.00-18.00. on Saturdays. I didn't write this to complain, I just wrote it down to say that it doesn't really affect whether this International Cup will come in the future or no.

Hi, Geston!

It is difficult to make comprehensible conversation in SMS (a bit longer:) form. Seems biggest problem is we got "short" explanation without enough details, so comes not like surprise there is many questions and concernes (scenarios, like some of us like to name it):

- We considered various options, including creating a new cup each season. This solution also had its drawbacks, so we decided on the option with promotions and relegations.

1. Can you explain what drawbacks were noticed in this form?

No one is forced to participate. The club will have four matches to play per week. In fact, if someone does not want to or feels they do not have the time, they can simply choose not to devote time to the international league. They can play with juniors or forfeit the matches. In the first seasons, the international cup, like the national cup, will not be included in the seasonal expectations.

2. How many seasons do DEVs expect it would stay like this? It is 4 season time as you officially "announced" plan to introduce some kind of IC. IMHO, this last sentece makes open to make IC more important as domestic competitions in future terms.

3. I got answer only from koka, how will supporters rate this games - attendance related?
Can you explain what predictions you made, or exact data from preliminary test?
We got answer like DEVs will probably work to reduce income from attendance: Is it for all games, or just IC?

Thanks in advance!

Will affect of course before there were in national cups where not many compete . Now much more risk of injuries will cause to switch approach or tactic based on players...
We all wake up unusual times I validate line up at 5h in the morning every Saturday but one thing is to switch players other to change approach cause bunch of players got injuries in last min..


And fact that cc was super important tournament is ok to have time difference is ok but when all teams are enforced to play walk overs will be part of this completion ruin fun and fair play in it ..

literally like a discussion between a flat earther, Elon Musk on acid and a left wing black guy that identifies as a gay fox held in a mosque :D

Not even close ....

Much worse! XD

Guys. please stop writing some random complains like "Ill have to get up early" @Red_Pirate xD and my fans will emigrate to Poland @Sviktorov! :P

There are few serious things to discuss and for that we'll have to wait the other side *(devs) to say smt between our seamless chit chats ...

NNP btw :)

I didn't complained. You only read, but don't understand... I wrote beside the conditions I solve the team set up at saturday night. it doesn't matter if there is an International Cup or not. Everybody can solve it if want it.

I advise you to use a google translator, before you write anything:D

I can't write it cleaner, but not important if you don't understand forget it...
Have a nice weekend!

This is exactly "the thing" on this topic .... I've took as an example two closest, on this page, random complains or "clean thoughts", whatever, used for a joke and bam!

Immediately def bump, ridiculous tough, but still ...

I would just like to make one more comment:

It is a disaster to watch the 16- to 19-year-old SOKKER youth players kicking the ball around in youth games.
The way they play there is something you might see in good, genuine youth training centers in the 11-year-old age group (E-Juniors), but certainly not among players aged 14 to 16 (C- and B-Juniors) and definitely not among players in the U17/U18/U19 age groups!!!
2025-12-13 18:13:03
I've been saying it for longer than I can remember. If you're going to have youth games, you need to be able to see skills. It's just stupid otherwise.
2025-12-13 18:52:55
I completely agree with you. Your point of view, namely recognizing soccer talent and their abilities, at least to a certain extent, is absolutely true to life.


In this training video, I will show you what is normal in a youth training center in Munich. As an example of talented players, you will see an age group of 10- to 11-year-olds (F and E juniors).
