Předmět: Israel U20

Changes for the next season (part 1/3):

GOALKEEPERS:
Reuven Shevet - 19, 1135
Shon Yoel - 20, 818

Out:
Claudio Mirski - 20, 788

In:
Zelik Ivri (Netanya Diamonds) - 18, 609
Better ratio then Mirski, younger as well. He is only the reserve.

==========================

DEFENDERS - central:
Elitzur Shavit - 19, 993
Ofer Adler - 19, 1105
Danik Lobotzki - 19, 1091
Evgeniy Sukenik - 20, 1053

Out:
Arthur Lerner - 21, 1294
Yitzhak Shwartz - 21, 1312
Both are too old to play in U20.
I'm a bit scared to play only with 4 CD, but there are no useful players available

==========================

DEFENDERS - wing:
(L) Avimeleh Rahat - 20, 1213
(U) Anatoliy Rozin - 20, 1125

Out:
Benci Stavitski - 21, 938
Hezi Motzkin - 21, 1243
Age.

In:
(L) Effi Lezinger (FC Beitar J) - 18, 644
(R) Israel Shvitzer (FC Hapoel Givat Brener) - 18, 758
(L) Vladimir Nakhmias (Cuarto Distrito Jumilla) - 19, 802
Both players from the U17 are not good enough so I have to nominate Nakhmias, who is even with worse ratio slightly better.



To be continued ...

great work....keep posting in difrent countries chats...maybe there are a few players that are playing outside israel

I don't think I've missed somebody playing abroad ... I've checked all transfers from all Israel leagues from season 12 to the present

Changes for the next season (part 2/3):

MIDFIELDERS - central
Gilad Norman - 19, 995
Yaakov Landau - 19, 1095

Out:
Hannoh Mirski - 21, 1103
Anatoliy Olswog - 21, 1339
Age.

In:
Evgeniy Yahav (Ako Cubs) - 18, 1037
Eyzer Ilani (Natik) - 18, 934
Both from the U20 team, same situation as with CD, I have only 4 CM, but I have some reserves (unfortunately very weak (OR 590/670/742)) ... So the only solution is to use side midfielders to play in the center.

==============================

MIDFIELDERS - wing
(R) Noah Shushan - 19, 1127
(L) Sagi Shevet - 19, 1103
(L) Avigdor Or-el - 19, 1165
(L) Yosef Koganovich - 20, 1012
(U) Alex Nosbaum - 20, 910

Out:
(L) Hagay Yadid - 20, 1002
Our best LM, but he is in team with training facilities level 7, he is better than Or-el & Shevet only because of his chemistry and experience (just slightly), but he has worse ratio then this duo and is 1yr older. Because of his ratio he is not suitable to play CM (Koganovich is better there for example) in emergency, so I will kick him.

In:
Ofek Golda (Yuvalush) - 18, 972
Gershon Toledano (FC Slavoj Houslice 2011) - 18, 894
U17.

The reason why to keep so many side midfielders is mentioned above, it's not closed, I will think about midfielders ...

To be continued ...

Changes for the next season (part 3/3):

FORWARDS - central
Elad Ilyin - 20, 1163
Zeev Livnat - 19, 1094
Eliah Snir - 20, 1128
Ron Raihman - 19, 1161

Out:
Haviv Shofar - 21, 1390
Age.

In:
Efraim Simkhon (Yuvalush) - 18, 1008
Elisha Shikman (Ako Cubs) - 18, 921
Israel Yona (Montana Miners - USA II.4) - 18, 987
Evgeniy Zeevi (zoborskí jazdci - SVK III.5) - 18, 972
U17. All of them with great training facilities, no reason why not take them ... There is noone useful (mentioned in my previous posts), so I can nominate these guys to provide them sometimes training bonus. And in this competition our forwards have to deserve spot in the best "11" on the field And I have wide selection as well

============================

FORWARDS - wing
(U) Giora Shlain - 20, 1083
(L) Tzvi Ben-David - 19, 1042

Age ... unfortunately

In:
(L) Hannoh Rozenshtein (Yuvalush) - 18, 1072

============================
============================

SUMMARY
GK - 3
CD - 4
LD - 3 + 1 universal
RD - 1 + 1 universal
CM - 4
LM - 3 + 2 universal
RM - 2 + 2 universal
CF - 8
LF - 2 + 2 universal
RF - 0 + 2 universal

TOTAL 35 / 35
Maybe I'll make one spot free by not nominating one of the forwards (depending on the CL). So only this and the CM-WM question to solve (I have enough time for it)

Next post will be about statistics

wow thats a lot of FC.... I guess there are not many players that are not FC that are good enough for the squad.....
good luck....we belive in you....make us proud

Good luck in the next season, hope to improve some of my players so they can fit playing in higher levels

I'm sorry but I'm very busy now (doing my school-leaving exams ) so the statistics will be probably later.

Israel vs. Colombia
This match was bribed, the Israeli footbal federation has paid 10 000 000 pesos and they let us win. We wanted exactly 1:0 score (because of betting scams - so we were able to win our pesos back + some money for me ). Just a few shots, typical bribed match ...

That was a joke and now the real review ...

I saw that they have nominated only 11 players for this match (and two of them were GKs), so I expected 4-4-2 random squad Last season we were using difficult tactics and strategies so I wanted to try something really simple ... I was sure that the match will be really boring and that we have good defense to not recieve a goal. Of course, there were substitution but we scored quite early so we stayed in the defense and win And just have a look at our stats - 1 shot on goal = 1 goal, so THAT IS 100% SHOOTING EFFICIENCY!!! What a great start of the season!

PS. We need points to the world's ranking, that's why I set high importance.

There is a match against Colombia in several hours, but I would like to present some statistics from the last season:

Welcome to the Season 16 Award giving ceremony!

We had (and still have) only one good goalkeeper Reuven Shevet . He caught 28 shots from 42 (that's only 60%) but he was 18, I expect better number from him. He ended with 1 cleen sheet and this season he started with clean sheet in the first match (but he had no saves, no shots on him ).

Only two players were all time on the field (90min × 14 matches = 1260min) - Anatoliy Rozin and GK Reuven Shevet as well.

One player became 4 times the Star of the match, it's Efraim Narkis according to OR our best player, this season he celebrated his 21st birthday.

We played two times with ten players - 1 red card got Hagay Yadid and 2 yellow cards in a single match saw Arthur Lerner . In total we got 37 yellow cards in 14 matches (= 2.64 / match).

But neither of them had the most fouls. This statistic leads (last season 18yrs old) Noam Shushan with 24 fouls in 1170 minutes of play (in average it's one foul each half he played). In total we had 214 fouls (= 15.29 / match)

We had problems with shooting, from 156 shots total only 51 went on the target (= 32.7%). The worst player was Hagay Yadid with 5 shots in total and 0 on the target.

Only three players had more shots on the goal than shots wide: Noam Shushan (3 on the target - 1 wide) Avimeleh Rahat (2-1) Sagi Shevet (1-0). Two of them are midfielders, Rahat is defender.

And now the final part of this ceremony - let's award the prices!

The best scorer for the Season 16 is ... with 4 goals ... Haviv Shofar !

The biggest number of assists in Season 16 ... with 5 assists ... Efraim Narkis !

And finally the Best Israeli U20 Player in Season 16 is ... Efraim Narkis !

Congratulations!

At the end special price given by general manager of U20 team Cracken - "This price is not for stats leaders, it's for player, who impressed me during the season ... I would like to give this small award to a player, who was a substitute of a substitute but didn't make a shame. He is left midfielder, he played only 119 minutes but he can score once, he was always substituting Avigdor Or-el during Hagay Yadid suspension, this player is Sagi Shevet ."

Colombia vs Israel 1:2
Nicolás Riaño got 2 yellow cards in 2 minutes so we played 61' powerplay. I didn't know what to set because it was their manager's debut. I've analysed some of his league games (and his assistent's as well) so I had estimated they used central sectors. But there were several question marks and we were playing away, that's why I set defensive 4-5-1, in 30' both our CD's switched to CAD so we were able to claim CM sector (BP 5.75% - 11.25%). There were substitution in 45' in case we were losing to 4-3-3. When I saw the match report I would definitely use 3-5-2 against them, but we won, the only bad thing is that we had to use very high importance in the 2nd half. I'm very satisfied with midfield (both CAM scored). Zeev Livnat was alone against Colombia's defense, but I expected more from him.

Next Saturday we will host the world's #20, 1/8finalist from the last World Cup - SPAIN and this is chance for you to host one of the world's best footbal nation on your stadium! All you have to do is answer correctly on my question and be the fastest

My question is : Two players of our team can speak with our opponent in their language, because they are playing in Spain. But who can say in our team: "I play in one team with "El Cartero", Spanish senior team representant"?

I saw the game it was good but we had a lot of misses.. good luck next game and let's hope for a good result..
For your question: the answer is my former youth player, Sagi Shevet who plays in Fogar de Breogan, C.F.

Exactly!
We will play with Spain at Cubs Arena (34000). Hope this place will be lucky and we defeat them.

ISRAEL vs. SPAIN 1:0
Here it is! Spaniels used 4-5-1 so it was easier for us. But there were still big offensive threat. Reuven Shevet held us and after 60' substitution we were in pressure and Danik Shani shot them down!

Yes, I used very high importance, but we will get many points from this match. We dominated (quite surprisingly) in ball possesion (I would use normal passes instead if I had known).

I'm also satisfied with our shots - we have more shots on goal then wide.

After 3 matches we have 708 points in this season (compare: all last season = 1092). Energy loss is very small, so I will continue hunting points in order to get better qualification group next year and to help to qualify at Challenge cup.
