Subject: [NT]Nederland - België

This week we have the traditionally friendly game against België.
They managed to realize a great performance by not qualifying to the world cup :)) We'll try to keep up the honour of Benelux :)

Lots of matches between the two national teams, including the very first NT game for both countries :)

16 matches :)
I think no other countries have as many matches as we do.

About the game, both NTs will use players who have played maximum 5 matches in NT. That's why I ask you to update your players who meet this criteria in database. They have a chance to play now.
It seems we didn't beat them in the last 6 meetings, I hope we can change this.
3 more friendlies left besides this one and the world cup will start!

as it was written on the other topic, I've sent a "verbal" challenge to Germany, for a friendly :)

Tomorrow we play against Belgium.
It will be a funny game, it was difficult to prepare it, as the players were very limited :)) 5 matches at most. MacNoob had the same problems (if he wasn't lying :P).

I hope it will be a good match.
12 sk-time, on Amsterdam ArenA!
Hup Holland Hup!

All somewhat decent players have at least 5 caps. Either from senior matches, B squad games, U2x matches ... So I expect horrendous play from defenders and midfielders :)

Statistics for tomorrow

Starting 11
16 caps, 5 virgins

Vegter! ;-)

after 6 games won by them, today MacNoob showed his weak tactic once again and we managed to beat them 3-1 :)

no opinions?:)

of course, you are again doing very well with the teams that you're running. Hope you can make another 40+ run.

Greg says our tactics sucked :P

both?:))

pic or it didn't happen :))

Sure :)

trololololo :))))

but guess what, I didn't select 5 defs and 3 strikers :P You were closer to this formation, as your winger was moving sometimes in central position :P

Don't know if I should be happy that greg watched our game of sad because of what he said about tactics :P

Well, he said you won because you had 3 CM and we had 2. Which is bullshit as chances were pretty equal and more or less same amount of 1v1 and shots from distance. Add the fact that both our tactics DID work pretty well during the last seasons (dont think I'd have played the tactic you used for my team quite a lot last season) though greg says they dont ... not paying too much believe on his words :P

but he might know something we (all of us) don't. He's freaking greg, afterwards, he must know what the engine preffers :))

So, I understand that he suggets to use more mids.
Let's see next week, I'll play a 451 :)

but then your 1 striker might be covered all the time. So 352 should be better!

Greg is the one who created a game in which you come to the best results when playing with 5 defs. When he rates those tactics as stupid, he should look in the mirror more often !!
