It's not easy managing the unluckyiest National Team in Sokker.
I'd love to have seen your comment :)
It's kinda scary the way Mr Gibbage is always prowling around

Turkey defended very well Nin. I'm not sure there was a lot you could do without risking your backline.
Their goal was a sickener cause it was ill-deserved.
The defensive tactics they used were spot on in my opion as Terry and Sam hadn't much room at all up front and most of the service to them was cut off.
Mathews misssing from 5 yards in the 55 minute was something you couldn't predict.
They were playing for a draw or a 1-0 win. The brought on 2 defenders and 1 mid.
I think it would have taken 3 up front with 2 off mids to break them down but you can't predict what would have happended then.
Tough luck Nin but don't get mad, Get Even. Study their defensive stuff and maybe Apply it.

I think i mentioned a little while ago about changing philosophy about how i'm going about these games and thats a prime example. I've been selecting the tactics that i felt would be best suited to beat these teams when instead i should just concentrate on our strengths. The setup today was fine, it just didn't suit the changes they made and i got caught out.
The more i play around with formations the less i like 4-4-2, it simply doesn't work when you have to hold 1 mid back as defensive.
Cashin was not supposed to be playing as a mid, i dont know what happened there. Basically they knew our strikers and dropped their defence way back. Without wings we had no way through. I was bloody cursing Matthews when he missed that open goal.

Czech Rep this week because of Bosnia pulling out with no notice. It's not impossible to get a result but it'll be far from easy.
Well they're supposed to be fielding a weakened team but we'll see.
well deserved victory. The NT coach was doing some kind of a lottery to choose the line-up, but didnt read the whole thread...
Anyway your tactics was very good and so was the performace. Lizzraga played really well in the midfield. Your striker was well positioned and so was the defense line. the way i see it, bad position of Czech strikers was the reason they only scored one lucky goal.
good victory for the intl ranking.

Yeah it was worth 70pnts. I'm annoyed that we still cant keep a clean sheet though.
