Asunto: National Team

Newhill, forgotten hero?

Only adequate form.

Is he not playing for tsikor? Or what?

No, he is playing, though he got an injury a month ago and since then his form is decreasing. :/

Does anyone else think that a squad of 73 players is a little bit excessive?

He's just keeping tabs on them. What difference does it make anyway?

compared to bosnia's 237 in the NT 73 is nothing :s.

That doesn't change anything, though it's a good simple for owner, that his player may be good enough in future/now for NT. That's good imo, cause then people see that there's a goal to train him.

Increases the price on the player if you consider selling him. And I think the chance for a talented player to find a good home increases if he is in the squad.

So for me there are just positives... as long as Amien plays ;)

;)

Keep him in form till end of Quals! :p

Ahh I forgot - we'll play half first, half reserve squad with Malaysia. Must not get injured key players before Nederland and Argentina.

i'd rather go all out and try and get some GD to jump Slovensko on gd rather then put it all into one pot and hope we get points against N or A.

Yes, but the we can get injured strikers and mids, and that would mean 0pts against Argentina and Nederlands = no WC.

true, but we could just as easily miss out on gd to slovensko.

Hm...we have 3goals worse gd then Slovensko...maybe you're right, we never know how will go games of Argentina now...:s

Must think about it...

its a risk either way you go. Unfortunately we don't have the advantage of playing Malaysia last where we could go all out with no concerns. Whatever you decide is best, is all that matters to myself and to others, that is why you are the NT manager afterall, to make the tough decisions ;).

I'd go for it. If we lose a striker or midfielder will it really make a difference against Netherregions? They seemed unstoppable last time.

Crushing Malaysia would be fun to watch.

Can I put a whacky idea out there?... If you sit the strikers infront of the defenders then there will be less offsides and more opportunities to capitalise on defensive errors. Comments...?
Do our strikers have the skill and technique to get around the Malaysian defenders? I might have a look at the last match to see.
