All you can do in that instance is play around with different tactics?

England - Slovenija

England(24th) 2372.94 VS Slovenija(74th) 918.82

The U27 tournament begins. We don't have a bad squad, quite a few players we will see new, so watch this match.
It's a shame we don't play FLOW A against the rest of the good teams. You have to make an effort to be there! England!


Expectations: Your supporters are sure of an easy win in this match.

Cards and injuries:

Good luck ;)

Thanks! I don't know what to expect from the rival. I couldn't find any match where they played u27.
We have more to lose in this match than to gain :/

England - Slovenija 2:0

A boring and without a story match. You can see that the opponent is much weaker in terms of players.
A replay next week, still working on setting up the defence and it's looking better and better.
You can see that the rival's forwards are the strongest side.
I think they have a similar player to our Miller - to mention our player, today two goals and a wasted penalty kick.
We see you next week and hopefully the score will be much higher :)

It's really nice to see Miller getting form for the first time ever so you can see his skills. The triple super divine may as well be triple formidable when in tragic form.

True, it's nice that we can finally put him in the line-up :-)

Nice? It's vital, Antos, VITAL! We're all behind our screens praying and begging you to pick Miller to be in the line-up. I haven't seen my friends and my family for the last few months, I'm glued to the screen to find out what form he is in and if you're gonna pick him. And now you've done it!! You've done it!!!

Wow, my kids have grown....

Hahaha, don't change mate.

Slovenija - England 0:1

24 shots on rival goal, penalty not scored. We scored a goal from 40 metres. This game is stupid and doesn't like me.
The opponent had 5 shots on our goal, none were accurate. We could have gone into this match without a GK :p
Nothing this win gives us in the rankings, this match is simply worthless.... Another week we have to play again against the same rival and I am just fed up. This is not what I want. Tomorrow I will try to arrange with a different team, it might be hard to find a rival at this stage.... But I'll try to do it.

Ok good luck Antos and I agree…….another win though :)

Miller 17 shots and no goal! :O
(gewijzigd)

Miller Lite

The Miller saga begins again.... form drops again.... i think this is going to be an unlucky player
We have a similar defender who is out of form for the 3rd season - great loss for England :(

England - Shqipëria 4:2

I managed to organise a friendly match against Albania on Saturday and it was a very close match. Very interesting.
We had our situations in the 1st half, a lot of missed opportunities, a lot of bad passes.... The opponent did not score a penalty kick in the 45th minute, just before the end of the 1st half.
Out of curiosity this season we had 12 penalties, we only used 2 - I guess there is something wrong with this game?
2nd half much better in our performance, we could have scored even more goals.... but we stopped at a score of 4:2, which we should have taken with a smile :)
After two wins against Slovenia, we dropped 3 places in the rankings - I was very pissed that we were losing a place in the rankings despite winning.... With one match against Albania we were able to get back to our place and we are currently 23rd in the ranking! :)

I've been away from the forum for a couple of days - a tiny holiday in Amsterdam took my head away :p

I hope you had a good time?
