Asunto: National Team U21

USA U21 does'nt had team with us(the manager forgetted the age update), so we wins with 5-0 and reached another place on ranking, actually we are 46-th in rankings, going from 49-th position at the beginning of season.
Next week we play with U.A.E U21 with our new generation.
Thanks for managers of old U21 players for trainings and updates, this season we could-it make another good WCQ standing with that.
PS.At first NT one of you voted the turkish candidate, so i comes back with regrets to youngs.
I hope, panther does'nt will work so worst, like he works this season on Turkey.
If you does'nt could win against teams like New Zealand or USA with a 80p. team that is Turkey, you have big tactical problems.And Australia is'nt Turkey anyway...

No opponent again, i think just seen my name creates fear for them:D
Just joking.
I wait for rankings, maybe we make another step forward, but i'm sad to: i wanted to see our next generation to play.

Alot of U20 matches and some interesting opponents.I hope to be OK this season too, even we have some very strong opponents, like Romania or Italy.But in WCQ we need to play aswel with such a good teams on group, so i need stronger tests too.

Go young sokkeroos!

I sent today the skill updating mails for all U21 NT player's club managers, i hope everyone will be updated, beause is very important for us to see, what players we have to make results this season.
Tomorrow we play another friendly with ThailandU21, last week i makes a refresh of most valued young players that we have and i got some new players for squad, mostly U20, because we will play more matches with youngers.

Little victory with Thailand yesterday.We had a lot of shots(12) but just a single goal(Brooks scored), we dominated the game(59%).
I waited a litlebit more from our U21 players,the MID passes accuracy and D'Arcy's playing could it be better.
From now we start to play with U20 some matches, preparing youngers for next official WCQ season.
For first time Australia go next week to play on "Mamma Mia" Mini World Cup U20, a very big young international competition with 32 participants.
All team will use just U20 players, so we will conform aswel to rules.
Next friday we will play with Malaysia on MWC U20, a strong opponent, close to us on marks.
Match will be played on cup system and the winner advance to next phase of competition.
So, if we win, as i hope, we go through 1/8 final of MWCU20.

Go, Sokkeroos U20 talents!

We wins with Malaysia(3-0) and makes a big step forward on rankings(from 47 to 43 position), also we reached the 1/8 finals of Mini WC U20.Congrats for our youngest NT players!
Next week we meet Latvia on MWC, a much stronger opponent, better than us on rankings, with a tactically good manager.
Is very important to us to keep the squad on third pot position till this season will end.

We losed on last second of match with Latvia, unbelievable owngoal of Osman.
Brooks don't played too well, he need more pace to be our sure goalman.0-1.
And we will continue the U20 matches 3 more weeks then go back to U21.
We were a mark better than last week and i wanna be better bifore next WCQ season will start.

Switzerland is very strong for us, the aussie youngs was weakest by 8 marks, than our opponent, we losed again 0-2.
I need to play and work more with our U20, because we have a lot of problems to be resolved, till we begin a new WCQ.

4-0 with Albania last friday, we are on 45-th place on rankings, better than anytime on last seasons.
Next match we play also with U20 against similar aged team of Czech Republic, very strong opponent.
I wanna test my youngers with strong teams to, because we will have two(or more) stronger teams on WCQ group.
But good news for those who have actual 21yo nt players:after this one we will play with our U21 3 times.
So, updates of whole squad are welcomed.We must end this season on third ranking pot.

Very close lose(1-2) with world 5 ranked czechs yesterday, both teams used U20 players.
Next week we play vs GuatemalaU21, we come back to U21 players, i hope with a new victory.

1-0 for youngs with Guatemala, very nice debut of 19yo striker, Sal Macallister, he scored our goal.
I'm glad I tried it...
Next week we play vs India, they have two better strikers than ours, so will be another good test for us.

We defeated a litlebit with Panamá, 1-1, after we leaded we takes a red card, that changed the balance of match.
Next week we play with my own country, Romania.
I hope to make a good game and close result, even they are the finalists of past WC.

1-1 with WC finalist Romania U21 today.
Congrats for those who played...and good bye for actual 21yo players, from now we will play with just next generation players to prepare our next WCQ campaign.
