Onderwerp: NT - new sezon

I decided some time back I wouldn't run again. You have to quit while on top sometimes, getting to the WC semi final, is relatively unlikely I will beat that. I think my record with the main NT was only 1 competitive loss in my 3 seasons (the very first NT season was a season of friendlies).

nice stats!!! congrats

You played against Bots :p

I did pretty well with the u21 tbh if I remember correctly. I have never fancied the full NT sides.

Oh and @ BR Asprilla had 5,000 caps for the u21 even in bad form :p

I will say no more as its old news now, and I genuinely hope England and you do well.

Don't feed his ego, it was against Bots ;)

and Asprilla only played 4,999 games actually!!!!!!! :P

There wasn't any bots with NTs. You should know better than that!

Only 2 NT managers have got to the WC final. On is qstar who is long gone now, the other if I remember right is jpk.

thephil managed to get to 2 successive semi finals.

I know I was pulling your leg, I’m guessing our pool of players is now pretty weak compared to others back then?

Those days all players were weaker.

Poland were miles and miles ahead of every country (10x users which had started earlier) so it was a matter of who was 2nd best. In those days England didn't have as many managers as some countries but had a decent pool of talent to play. It's safe to say, not a single one of those players in the lineup would likely play for England now though. The nearest probably would have been one of my own supplied defenders.

The Polish players right now must be insanely good! I’d love to have their best 11

yup was in top form yours was in bottom form, I needed to make another mid, when we had injury we had nothing and again if a red card, said this many times it's really boring, you think i played my own player so better my better only ? so i didn't care for the U21's? noway

same thing happened to me with Moore, he only got 14 caps for 2nd best u21 player, so feck know's what your on about, utter nothingness stop it, your only 5 ft 9! ;)

hmmm does my Q/F with U21's beat your semi's becasue we had much depleted U21's when i did it, you were at our highest point ;)
Qsatar won with England U21'S didn't he ? before me, was a amazing that

Good game Ali! :)
A well-deserved win!

@Antoś:
Thank you.It was an honor to play with you ;)

@Bryan Robson:
Unfortunately, sometimes the sokker engine helps the weaker team. And that's where the bad luck caught up with me. Hopefully the team left in the 24th place will go up rather than down ;P. It was my dream to bring England to the front end.
Time will show what results you will achieve.

you done well mate!!!! congrats

Still have next week but definitely leaving on a high :P

Agree, he's hardly leaving a broken ship, may get the gig again one day?
