Thema: [U21] World Cup , by Krzysztof/

1. To start, write a few words about yourself:)
1) My name is Kaloyan, 32 years old. Working at advertising industry and also i am minifootball and futsal player. Now... recovering from an acl injury and have more free time to be u21 coach of my country. :))))

2. Introduce your group Introduce us to your chance in this group and the chance of all the representations in your group.
2) For me, our group is the strongest... For Cuba and Hungary maybe really easy group... :)))) In our group we are outsiders... Last seasons part of our top managers left the game and this reflect to our national teams, now for u21, after few seasons also for senior team. However, we have really active maximum 15-20 managers. Cuba and Hungary are favorites. They have strong and balanced teams. Lietuva have really strong defense and can surprise everyone in our group. Despite all of this i want to beat all of them and win our group. I hope we will make great matches and better team will win.

3. Name your top 4 favourites to win the championship.
3) u21 is more difficult to make surprise... Polska and Romania are favotites.

4. Who do you think will be the biggest pleasant surprise of the tournament?
4) Why not Bulgaria? :))))) Everyone who beat Polska or Romania will be pleasant surprice... (last week we played against Polska and our u21 team looks like playing against senior team...) Great job by polska managers, they made amazing players!

5. What don't you like about the game, what would you change to make it better?
5) Long story... Sokker is incredible game, but always can be better.

6. What advice would you like to pass on to other U21 national team selectors ?

My name is Aldo, I´m 41 YO, Married, 1 Son, Electronic Engineer.
I started in SK in 2005, then lost my Team in 2011. I came back in 2020 and here we are! :-)

2. Introduce your group Introduce us to your chance in this group and the chance of all the representations in your group.

My Group? A Nightmare!!!!!
We have Ranks #4, #5 and #14 aginst our modest #31. Apparently we have no chances, but we´ll do our very best.

3. Name your top 4 favourites to win the championship.

Polska U21 is always a must.
Then I like România U21, Türkiye U21 and Deutschland U21.

4. Who do you think will be the biggest pleasant surprise of the tournament?

It has to be an Outsider and I hope it can be Us. You know we can give some Surprises. :-)

5. What don't you like about the game, what would you change to make it better?

For NT/U21, showing the Manager the Skills of his Players. It´s very frustraiting to ask for Skills and never get an answer.
For the game, I like the Training Changes, but Youths (Age/Skills, School, etc) have to be adapted to this new reality.

6. What advice would you like to pass on to other U21 national team selectors ?

As in every game... Just enjoy and have fun!

1. To start, write a few words about yourself:)

My name is Tomek and I am 37 years old and I am living in Wrocław. I have two children a daughter 6 yo and a son 5 months. I am a Project Launch Manager and I am working in a company which is manufacturing glasses for premium cars. I have played sokker since 2006 and I have been Ireland u21 coach since 2020.

2. Introduce your group Introduce us to your chance in this group and the chance of all the representations in your group.

Finally I have achieved my goal and I am going to play on WC in very strong group - Romania, Argentina, Portugal all above teams have chance to play in the next phase. I would like to achieve at least one draw during three matches, but It will be mission impossible :-)

3. Name your top 4 favourites to win the championship.

Poland, Romania, Spain and Czech Republic

4. Who do you think will be the biggest pleasant surprise of the tournament?

France, Switzerland and Croatia

5. What don't you like about the game, what would you change to make it better?

The owners should focus on the current users whose are the biggest fans of this game. They have promissed a lot of changes but during the implementation they made a lot of mistakes and they lost a lot of users. They should help NT coaches and make arcade matches or stay with previous solution not implement hybrid matches.

6. What advice would you like to pass on to other U21 national team selectors ?

I have found in NT matches the new life in the sokker. U21 is very interesting because you have to looking for the new players every season and prepare tactics according to them skills. You can also discuss with users from others countries about the players whose have chance to play in u21 in the future. I am waiting every single week to see u21 match and every Thursday I hope that my NT players will improve them skills. NT is very important part of sokker for us. The owners please don't destroy this fun :-)!!!

1. To start, write a few words about yourself:)
1. I am a 30-year-old resident of Békéscsaba. i love all forms of soccer. I have been playing sokker continuously for 15 years now, it has become a daily routine :)

2. Introduce your group Introduce us to your chance in this group and the chance of all the representations in your group.
2. This group is deceptive. Cuba is very solid and dangerous with a good manager. And we always suffer against Bulgaria. And from the last hat, Lithuania.... I think they have the best team. They will go a long way in the World Cup.

3. Name your top 4 favourites to win the championship.
3. I think the big winner of the shortened season is Poland. They have always had a big advantage, but maybe it will be even bigger.
Thus: Polish, Italian, Romanian and Lithuanian

4. Who do you think will be the biggest pleasant surprise of the tournament?
4. Lithuanian. I was amazed to see how good their players were

5. What don't you like about the game, what would you change to make it better?
5. The old system was perfect for me. By now the game has become too match, everything has sped up.

Thanks Krisztiano for such a nice words for Lithuania, I was surprised:) will be interesting!!!

1. To start, write a few words about yourself:)

Hello Sokker! My name is Antti, I'm a 39yo M.Sc. living in the eastern border of Finland. I've played Sokker for ages and coached Suomi U21 even longer. This is my 7th or 9th or 11th season in a row now, can't keep track anymore.. :) I've also been the manager of the senior NT a few times in the past, but my biggest passion is and has always been developing the young players of my country. I do the same thing in real life too, I'm coaching the local girls' football team and my own daughter is also playing. My son is 5 and he will also start playing soon, so this is my last season to play myself. I play in the Finnish3rd division, but I'm beginning to feel a bit old already as I could easily be the father of most of my club mates.. :D

2. Introduce your group Introduce us to your chance in this group and the chance of all the representations in your group.

As usual I got the shitty draw. I think our group is the strongest in the tournament. Of course it's mainly my own fault as I found myself in the 4th pot for not being able to beat Ukraine and Cuba in the qualifiers. All of the teams are strong. Bosnia I think is on the same level than us when looking at the players but they have a really good coach so they are difficult to beat. Czechia is one of the big countries and Slavista can consider himself as the favourite in this group. Serbia has super strong strikers and have been impressive lately. I'd guess all of the teams will win at least one match so it will go to the very last minute of the 3rd round games before we know who will advance. I hope it will be us, perhaps the second team to go through will be Serbia.

3. Name your top 4 favourites to win the championship.

Polska and Romania obviously, Turkey looks strong and fourth candidate.. maybe Croatia.

4. Who do you think will be the biggest pleasant surprise of the tournament?

I hope it will be Australia, perhaps they can make an upset and advance to the playoffs..?!

5. What don't you like about the game, what would you change to make it better?

There are several aspects that should be changed as the new shorter season was introduced. My main concern is that the U21 teams will become very weak and the matches unwatchable. Either the juniors should enter the youth school with lower age or develop faster. You can see the decline in average level already, I have midfielders valued below 400k to field in the World Cup nowadays.. so pretty much it's like playing with an early season U20 team in the old days.

Injuries are way too long and frequent. Form system sucks ass and has always sucked. Match engine should be adjusted for the weaker players in the future. Etc. etc. This is the best game there is, but there would be so much to do to make it much better.

6. What advice would you like to pass on to other U21 national team selectors ?

My team has been on steroids for several seasons now, so to make it safer for you it's wise to use a corner tactic or even better to give a walkover against Suomi. Then everyone's happy; your players won't get injured and I will win the World Cup.

No, seriously speaking; have fun! I'm looking for an exiting tournament with loads of surprises. :)

Great job @Krzysztof! Very nice reading!

I agree with you, he has done a great job.

yeah. Nice
thanks

5.Everything is great for me

6. What advice would you like to pass on to other U21 national team selectors ?
6.I don't agree with my advice :)))

It's time for France U21, so I'll give my opinion and introduce myself to you:)





1. My name is Krzysztof, I am 45 years old and I live in Poland in the Silesian Voivodship. I work in the construction industry. I treat Sokker as entertainment and a break from work. I am interested in sport and tourism, as well as religion. I have a loving wife and a wonderful daughter of whom I am proud.
I am an expert on youth national teams.
I started my work with the national team with Iran U21, then there was Denmark U21 6 seasons, then Norway U21 and now there is France U21.

2. This is what France's U21 group looks like at the World Cup.


Yes Italy U21 are the real favourites of this group, but the recent results of this national team give me a lot to think about if this is in fact the case.
Of course, these were only friendly matches.
Italia U21 - Srbija U21 1:3
Italia U21 - Hrvatska U21 0:2

France U21, in my opinion we can even fight to win this group, we need luck, which was really lacking in the last match against Turkey U21, when our player saw a red card in the 5th minute of the match and our best striker suffered a slight injury a few minutes later Türkiye U21 - France U21 2:1
France U21 can fight, that's how we played with the line-ups of players we will see at the World Cup.
France U21 - Deutschland U21 4:0 , France U21 - Česká republika U21 1:1 , Hellas U21 - France U21 1:6 , France U21 - Hayastan U21 4:0
Matches like the ones above only add to my motivation, and belief in success. My goal is to get out of this group to the next round of the World Cup.

Hellas U21 there is a lot of potential in this national team, you need to focus hard on playing against this team, but I think advancing to the next round will not be possible Greece U21 has a weaker national team at the moment.

México U21 this could be the revelation of our group. I think this is an unpredictable national team, they can surprise everyone on the positive side, but they can also fail to achieve anything great. It's really hard to say what the current squad is capable of, as the last matches of this national team were against rivals not the strongest Lëtzebuerg U21 or Sénégal U21.

It is worth noting that in our group all the national teams have retained their coaches, so there is stability in the work, and this is a very important aspect in these games.

National teams by ranking points





In my opinion France U21, and Italy U21 will come out of the group, but I think the matches will be very close and the fight will be until the last round to advance from this group.

3. Top 4 favourites to win the championship España U21, Poland U21, Hrvatska U21, Česká republika U21

4. Who will be the biggest pleasant surprise of the tournament? The biggest pleasant surprise of the tournament will be: France U21, Srbija U21, Colombia U21

5. Sokker is a cult game :) that is why I like it a lot, a lot is changing for the better in this game, although I know how often bugs are introduced but we have to be patient the game is going in the right direction. I would definitely change the contact, information about changes, problems encountered and innovations implemented. Improving the contact between the game developers and the whole community in this game is much needed .
The second thing I am waiting for is the implementation of the big ad

6. I wish all managers of national teams the fulfillment of their goals. Remember no one goes to the World Cup by chance, each team has a great professional, everyone deserves respect, promotion to the World Cup is a great adventure and great fun.
However, to those managers who are not going to the World Cup, I wish calm, patient construction of the U20 national team, which will fight for promotion to the next World Cup next season. Success in the Mamma Mia Cup and other small Cups.
It is supposed to be for all of us above all a nice fun, spending a nice free time.

Thanks for making the World Cup even more interesting.

1. In next year I will have anniversary, 15 years in sokker. Currently I am 31 years old and sokker is my one of favourite hobby – it took a long time for me to accept internet gaming as a hobby (to my family and friends also ;)) but now it is a pure satisfaction. Right now Im not enjoying in sport so this game is a pat of "compensation" of what im do not following nowadays.

2. Introduce your group Introduce us to your chance in this group and the chance of all the representations in your group.
2. For me, the biggest achievement is getting into this group. I would like to remind Israel is team from 50place. if i can get one point I will be very satisfy, especially that we have: ranked – 6,13,39, so first place Brasil, second Hrvatska and for third place I will fight with
Australia (we have won with them in final of Asian Cup IV edition but couple seasons ago - its completly diffrent team)

3. Name your top 4 favourites to win the championship.

6. What advice would you like to pass on to other U21 national team selectors ?
6. HARD WORK, keeping in touch with all available users in country(I mean small to 50 users), following all skill of youngers and patience, but not all countries allows this, because they want to see the scores immediately
