Subject: [U21] Attila

I will train them both as Attila suggested, defending till the end of season, then stamina and pace.
Subbarayan needs pace for sure before anything else.
I don't mind selling Yashodhan to someone training passing next season.

Today comes the toughest match of the season. Knowing the strength of the Greek team, remembering our first match (0-4) today we have to change our tactic a bit. We need to pay tribute to the very strong attackers of the opponent, so today our goal will be primarily to guard our goal. We will be a rookie on our team, we will have a player who will be in a new position. We will see how this will succeed in the match. No matter how the score develops today, I am very proud of this team and honored to be able to control them.

What disadvantages us today is the slight injury to Anees. He will only be on the field if Sunda is injured (I really hope it won’t be needed). The 3 replacements will still be needed today in the most important positions due to the stamina. Again, I ask you who train the majority of the players on the team to hold 1 or 2 weeks of stamina training at the end of the seasons. Thank you for your help.

Whoa, Yashodhan making his debut against the mighty Greek team at the age of 17. Brave decision.

Again, I ask you who train the majority of the players on the team to hold 1 or 2 weeks of stamina training at the end of the seasons.

I always train stamina for 1 week at the end of the season.

Unfortunately, I couldn’t have expected any better than this in today’s match. The Greeks won almost all the duel. Their 30 goal shots are amazingly high, compared to the 4 goals scored, praising Lavanya’s great performance today.

I made a small mistake (if this is a mistake on my part). I didn’t dare quite place Chiba next to the sideline. Ntegiannis is a surprisingly good winger, who knows maybe there would have been several times for Chiba to get a ball if he was closer to the winger. But it was not certain that the Greek team would turn Ntegianni to the left again. He could have been on the other side. And it would have been a big risk to put both of our winger defenders next to the line. Actually, only in retrospect, seeing the match, I say it would have been better to put Chiba even more towards the line.

The Greek team is definitely better than us with so many goals.

I want to play a U20 match next week, we'll see what the captain of the opponent (Severna Makedonija) has to say about it.

Today we will play a friendly U20 match against Severna Makedonija.
Due to the age limit of 20, there will be more newcomers to our team. I also had to pay attention to the best possible stamina during the compilation, so in some positions this decided.

I want to end with a victory in the last WCQ match. We have a chance to do that now, maybe for the first time I dare to describe that we have the chance to win.

This will be the last match of the current 21-year-olds in U21. Thanks to everyone who coaches the players, we had a great team this season, we managed to achieve great victories with them.

I want to continue working next season, I hope I can count on your votes in the upcoming election. By the way, my longer-term plan also includes the fact that I would like to apply for the position of captain of the Indian national team soon.

In the next season of U21, we can still play for goalkeepers Lavanya, Meyappan (thanks to getting GK training from now on). Meyappan could play in U21 even after 2 seasons.

Defenders can also play Chiba, Munusamy on the pitch next season, and Biswas, Mehul, Subbarayan can be expected to play next 2 seasons (Subbarayan can play 3 more seasons in U21). And Yashodan is already a great defender and his extra that he can play 4 more seasons in U21.

We will be a little weaker in midfield next season, in this part of the team only Satwant was able to fight for a permanent place in U21 already this season. In addition, Najeeb, Surnilla, Sreekanthan will be the (expected) team members for next season in midfield. There are a few more promising midfielders, they will be able to play in U21 for another 3-4 seasons (based on their age): Saini, Ravikanth, Chaitanya, Dinkerral. They still have a lot to improve, but in a good team, they get a good training and in 2 seasons, they will be playing on the next WCQ.

There will be a pretty big quality lost in the striker line, as we won’t have nearly as strong a striker as Sundaramoorty ... and unfortunately for now, only Shilpa can play at a level acceptable to what would be expected of a successful U21 striker. The other Manohari, who can play among the strikers next season, I try to make him as strong as possible, but unfortunately he is just an average talent, I expect him to develop a little faster. Najeeb could still be a striker next season, but he will have to use in midfield. The 17-year-old Engineer when he came up from the junior school, I saw that he would be the solution for several seasons in the striker position. But unfortunately the user trained him only for speed and I have no information about the player since the beginning of February (I asked but did not get a response). I hope Engineer’s position turns right soon because he could play 4 more seasons in U21 IF his owner trained well.

I am confident that I can continue to work and U21 will continue to be productive.

You will have our support for the next season and beyond that as well.
I'm sure we will get better youngsters now that KautukP is also pulling juniors that are frankly even better than mine :P
Kautukp's latest pull Pavi has a lot of potential if he can go to a good trainer. maybe after 1 season of technique training he can join the NT as well.

We finished in 4th place in the group, just 2 points behind 3rd place in Norway. I think the 15 points we got are a very good result. We have 5 wins, which is more than what could be expected from our team.

21-year-olds can still play this week, I have to take advantage of that because a strong opponent, Russia, is coming up. Starting next week, the new generation will follow.

Yes we have had a good season. Let's hope we can repeat the same next season.

The election has started. Please vote me.

Great result against Latvija.
Despite a red card after 24 minutes we still matched them and managed a draw.

Thank you.

We have a general problem this season: we only have very few players. But I will continue to do my best to ensure that the Indian team achieves good results.

I will try to give you a brilliant 20 yr old in 2 weeks and an incredible 19 yr old in 6 weeks.

Very good news!

4-0 was expected against Romania as they're too strong.
I'm surprised they didn't score more.

I tried a new tactic that I will use against the strongest teams. The defense was pretty good, but unfortunately we didn't have a chance to attack the much stronger Romanian defenders and midfielders.

...And Varati made his debut in the second half :)
