Subject: From Russia with love

Dear foreigners and those who prefer English rather than Russian,

I know there's some interest in 'what's happening in Russia' from your side. That is why, I assume, there should be a thread where you can easily follow all events happening in our Community, including things relating to Russian NT both senior and U21. The thread will be in English only. I will try to duplicate all important information here. If you think there's lack of information, please, feel free to ask questions here. Don't doubt, you'll get answers.

PS. It will be much appreciated, if Russian users try to use the English language here =)

So, I'll start. Russia is going to participate in Unofficial U21 WC. We are starting from Qualification round:

Group A:
1. Schweiz
2. Russia
3. Malaysia
4. Nippon

Fixtures:
WEEK 7 (2007-08-18)
Schweiz - Russia
Malaysia - Nippon
WEEK 8 (2007-08-25)
Schweiz - Malaysia
Russia - Nippon
WEEK 9 (2007-09-01)
Nippon - Schweiz
Malaysia - Russia

I believe, we will easily get the second place in the group winning against Japan (Nippon) and Malasia and loosing in the game vs Switzerland (Schweiz), which means that we will qualify for the 2nd stage - Group stage.

A short review of our U-21 team.

Keepers:
This line is ok as we have a strong keeper from Moscow City, namely Semion Shilovskij. Currently, he is the best keeper in Russia. There's also young Jurij Yakovlev from Razors of the Sky. I really hope, there won't be injuries...

Top-3:
Semion Shilovskij, age 21, club Moscow City, matches for NT: 16
Jurij Yakovlev, age 20, club Razors of the Sky, matches for NT: 1
Dmitrij Kolyvanov, age 20, club Kenobi, matches for NT: 0

Defenders:
There's 5 more or less normal defenders. Some of them even play for NT already.

Top-5:
Avdokim Ol`shanskij, age 21, club Specialists, matches for NT: 17
Radik Starostyak, age 20, club BAG, matches for NT: 5
Jurij Ivanovets, age 21, club FC Smradoprdy, matches for NT: 13
Alexei Afanasjev, age 21, club glossoplegia, matches for NT 5
Valentin Kodomtsev, age 21, club AC Petr, matches for NT: 1

Midfielders:
Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome one of the best 19yo midfielders in the world Jaroslav Tumilovich! Which is more important there's bundle of nice mids who are ready to demonstrate all their best. This line is stronger than we had a year ago.

Top-6:
Jaroslav Tumilovich, age 19, club BAG, matches for NT: 10
Maksim Moh, age 21, club Saint Catherine`s Angels, matches for NT: 5
Vitalij Prigoda, age 21, club FC Wien, matches for NT: 10
Viktor Isaev, age 20, club Francavilla Fontana, matches for NT: 1
Dimitrij Bulatov, age 21, club Vorwa"rts Traktor Neuschwanitz, matches for NT: 0
Matvej Zaev, age 21, club fC Vitebsk, matches for NT: 13

Forwards:
I believe there's no alternative but to use a tandem of Igor' Sergeev-Konstantin Kushev. It is said that both can surprise opponents.

Top-5:
Igor' Sergeev, age 20, club Cleveland Cavaliers, matches for NT: 15, goals for NT: 8
Konstantin Kushev, age 21, club Vladob-Winner, games for NT: 3, goals for NT: 2
Evgenij Sauh, age 21, club Sevastopol, matches for NT: 3, games for NT: 3
Danila Nikiforov, age 18, club Specialists, matches for NT: 0, goals for NT: 0
Rolan Ivakov, age 20, club FC Kvasici, games for NT: 0, goals for NT: 0

Hey, Sevvol, why there are so many "E"s instead of "A"s? "Normel", "ledies"... :)

many? you mean just 2... or you call that many? =) anyway, corrected...

COOOL!!!!!!!!

very good,so i'll not use online-translator,it's too easy way for me..
THANK'S A LOT SEVVOL!!!!

About U21 Team,i think that you should take a look also to other players that could help Russian NT in this hard tournament:

Def:

Stanislav Solomatin
Maksim Zhabuk
Matvej Shmatovalenko
Al'bert Savichev
Renat Shirko


Mid

Radik Belanov
Stepan Rodionov
Ul'jan Polyakov
Vadim Ponomariov
Anton Alejnikov


Att

Kirill Tochilin
Arkadij Zheleznyj
Dmitrij Ryzhov
Kirill Yakovlev


I don't know their skills,but they seems good!

:)

I believe, we will easily get the second place in the group winning against Japan (Nippon) and Malasia and loosing in the game vs Switzerland (Schweiz), which means that we will qualify for the 2nd stage - Group stage.


I agree,but be careful against Malaysia,the could steal points in my opinion.

:)

Thank you for the list of players. I'll check them. I can also provide comments to the players

Def:

Stanislav Solomatin I noticed this player before and contacted the owner. Unfortunately, he didn't log-in for a long time and didn't answer my sk-mail :(
Maksim Zhabuk According to his salary he is rather weak
Matvej Shmatovalenko He can be interesting. I contacted the manager
Al'bert Savichev This boy is actually a midfield. Vania has his vacation right now, I'll ask to update the player when he will return. Anyway, Savichev's time will come in a season or 2, I think.
Renat Shirko


Mid

Radik Belanov He wasn't updated this season, but minding his stats at the begining of the season I doubt he can help a lot
Stepan Rodionov I keep my eye on the player
Ul'jan Polyakov He still lacks pace I think. More exact decision about him can be made in a season
Vadim Ponomariov I'll contact the manager
Anton Alejnikov I think he is not of NT caliber. Check his wage. It's very low


Att

Kirill Tochilin Not suitable for NT
Arkadij Zheleznyj I know this player. I'm not sure about his chances to get to the NT
Dmitrij Ryzhov I'll check him in a season, if I am still in the Office :)
Kirill Yakovlev I think he is weak

Igor' Sergeev, age 20, club VFL Wildeshausen, matches for NT: 15, goals for NT: 8

my team is Cleveland Cavaliers man xD

а в самом деле почему так получается, что если верить оценкам то мой Радионов входит в National U21 Dream Team по итогам практически каждого тура, но при этом не разу даже не просматривался???
Неее...я не настаиваю...мне он и самому нужен..а там и сломать могут!))
но так...просто интересна логика тренера сборной за которого голосовал!;)

answered by sk-mail ;)

Sorry man, I've just corrected the mistake...

эко наш форум опганен речью иноземной, что и на вопрос на родном языке получаешь ответ на чудном;)))
Почитал почту...)
