Subject: [NT]Nederland - Israel

This week we have a friendly game, against Israel, my ex-NT :)

It will be a pretty difficult game, their coach wanted to use the best players again... they have some damn nice players.

We play away, the game will start at 11 sk-time.
Hup Holland Hup!

Difficult match, but we win :)

I agree with Wybo,if we don`t have the better players then we should win on the better tactics :)

excluding the fact that they had an unexpected help from their ex-NT coach, Ice-T... i must start creating something new, innovative... ideas are welcomed.

You lost because the tactic is really quite vulnerable. You can't afford to leave this much room between the midfield and the defense. Furthermore, the midfield is completely irrelevant most of the time.
I think you have become way to predictable and Israel took your tactic apart. It's a good thing this was a friendly, but you really need to look at the basics again. What are your players going to do if they got the ball? What happens if they lose the ball? Who do I want to be in possession? Look at the passing lanes. Israel got this covered damn near perfect against us. However, the main thing you need is this: variety. Nobody should ever be able to predict your next tactic. Mistakes are only fatal if they can be predicted!

Roger that.
