De Generaal to All
Vote for De Generaal if you want a non-Polish coach with experience and very strong tactics !!
De Generaal
My name is Cees Jan, 34 years, living and working in Groningen (Netherlands) and this is my 5th season playing Soccer.
I managed to get promoted twice in the first 2 seasons. Now I play for the 3rd consecutive season in the strongest B-league of the Netherlands (B.03).

Why choose for me ?

Firstly, as I'm Dutch I stand for an attractive and attacking tactic with enough securities to try and keep a clean slate. Big priority is taking advantage of the weak sectors of the opponent and the positioning at set-pieces.
Secondly I'm a very active Sokker-player who's online every day for a few hours (also when I'm working); always available for giving advice and help to beginning managers. A big advantage therefore is the fact that I speak English fluently, so no chances of miscommunication.

My object is to name two or three of the Indian managers as my assistant, to try and keep in touch with the wishes of the native Soccer-players. Also one Dutch assistant is appointed.
A staff of (maximum) five people is in my opinion ideal for a fairly new country as India.

Would you like a spot in the NT-staff, please SK-mail me !

Additional speech (also published in Hoodibaba's forum-topic) :

First of all I must say that the former NT manager took on a massive task in this Group E with Espana, Portugal, Romania , Srbija en Cymru.
Spain is a big country in Sokker. Romania has proven to be a very rapidly growing country in the last 2 seasons, Portugal and Serbija are in fact one or two sizes to big for India.
Only Cymru seemed a nation who could've been beaten, but the team has a great goalie and in front of him a squad without any weak spots.
That's an explanation for the zero points, but not for the 81 goals the opponents scored. I think the National coach didn't have enough time for making a tactic for the NT of India as the tactic in the last games wasn't changed. The other countries had an all clear to take advantages on the space on the wings and the static 4 midfielders.

Database :
The first thing on the program is to make a database in which I need input from all the active Indian coaches and if possible the former NT coach
We'll put together a list of the best players of India and the most promising young players. Only with good youngsters India will have a future in Sokker.
We all should make sure these young players are trained at their weaknesses, preferably at Indian clubs. It's my job to keep track of the players and their updates.

Staff :
Of course I will need a staff of people from India, who will help me in choosing players. Total staff of 5 people maximum, to keep short communication lines.
The following positions in the NT are considered : National Coach, Head-assistent (2x), Scout, Public Relations/Recruitment assistant.
Public Relations become very important as India's community has to grow in order to make the NT stronger in the long run.
The current active coaches have to make sure they'll get promoted as quick as possible to the highest National Football League, if needed with my advice.
This way the Indian competition becomes more competitive and fun in order to keep current and new coaches interested in the game.

For the games of the National Team :
As a NT coach I will look at the games of the opponent and make the appropriate tactic, which I will discuss with my staff (and not on the Forum as our opponents can spy on us)
The formation varies on the strength of the opponent. In most games India will be the underdog, so a firm defense with a defending midfielder is a must.
Many times the positioning at set pieces decide a match, so I always put the emphasis on set-play.

Next season goals :
In the qualification matches you can't expect miracles from the NT. One win must be possible, and also no more than 60 goals against in the 10 matches.
Friendly games must be played as much as possible, against nations that are comparable with the level of India to see where we stand and what progress we make.


If one of the Indian players has any question, feel free to ask me in this topic or by SK-mail). I like the Indian community to be very involved !
In a few seasons one of you should be able to take over.

Kind Regards
De Generaal

I can only say that I would vote for the General. As I know him from the dutch Sokker league (and also Hattrick sokker league) he is a tactical genius who performs excellent with not the best players of the world. Most of the time he outsmarts his opponents by attacking their weaknesses and covering up his own weaknesses. He knows all the in an outs of the game and both sokker and hattrick have practically no secrets for him. So if you want a capable coach who can make your NT better than it has ever been, vote for the Generaal
