Subject: [Old] Canada Senior NT Discussion

i believe at this point, it's safe to say Yves Todd is the front-runner for the starting job

When I scouted him he was at 68:45:32:45:45:33.... :O

Look for a keeper with 15-16 points of strength, they save more than Yves Todd.

I don't mind helping out with NT, but I don't know if I can commit enough to manage ATM (of course that could change).

I would be interested in the position of NT manager.

I would vote for you right now, not only because you are doing a good job so far with your own team, but also because you haven't got the chance to manage a NT yet. Sorry Canucks357, but you gotta let others get a shot! haha

whats wrong with having the best managers do the managing
sry but this equal rotating thing seems too much like pee wee league

ok would this be a bad time to ask for a nomination for myself too?
awesome...

Haha wasn't saying we need to do rotating but I was just giving some reason to why I would vote slavko over canucks if both ran next year!

Slavko does have the incredible understanding of PPM Football that no others seem to have. His success in these two seasons shows it quite well. My friend copying his line ups was part of his reason for being promoted to I.1 this season! hehe

slavko has done a marvelous job. Very strong team. I'd kill for his players mind you... he has some very exceptional players.

Seems to me that slavko has had success with a very strong team (his SA was a major talent factory for the entire first season). Still, he has shown a good understanding of the game, so I think he would be a good choice. However, canucks has done a lot with less, which suggests he too has a strong understanding of the tactical elements of the game. Either would be a good choice.

Lets examine slavko's talent advantage:

NKJD: top 15 player average OR: 266
200+ OR players not in top 15: 11
200+ players sold: 3

OAP: top 15 player average OR: 238
200+ OR players not in top 15: 1
200+ players sold: 1

CHC: top 15 player average OR: 218
200+ OR players not in top 15: 0 (only 12 200+ players ATM)
200+ players sold: 0

Looks like I've competed well with even less...curse you pathetic SA.

What about slavko and canucks manager and assistant (in any order)

What are your expectations regarding NT? How do you think we can perform?

Mine? For soccer we are certainly much weaker then hockey... we have much fewer managers and teams. I wouldn't be surprised if we didn't compete in the top division. However, all four of our teams in the CL and two are the CWC have played really well against the other teams from other countries. I'd say we'll have really good odds. I'm very hopeful

Canada is ranked 13th in terms of number of active hockey teams. In soccer Canada is ranked 33rd. So a berth in the Top Division for soccer seems unlikely. Our success in soccer will depend on our collective ability to grow our Training, Regeneration, and Sports Academies at a faster rate than the countries we are competing with.
