I'm here to discuss any topic, suggestions, tips, advice, etc.

Bad news guys, we lost our best goalkeeper, Valdis Ankipāns. Although we have many quality goalkeepers, in terms of performance he is currently far superior.

He was injured for 7 days, so I gave someone else the opportunity to be called up for this match.

But we have our lineups in place, our lineups are well-checked, and we're going to try to play a good game tomorrow against Switzerland. I ask for everyone's support and cheering.

Another thing I noticed is that our second defensive line was better than the first line, And the second line had more technique. I ask that if possible, you train a little more technique on our defenders. Thank you.

Technique has nothing to do with Defenders ratings if you are trying to say that.

Hum. It may have been one of our wingers who also influenced the defense. But anyway, I feel the need for a little more technique to avoid penalties. But I'm not saying I'm right either... but I think a minimum balance is good. Example: we have a defender with very defense and agression 480/240 and just 55 tec. I really don't know if it's right or wrong, but I'm afraid of excessive penalties.

Is it really worth to spend all that energy and Match Importance for so many games? Winning Friendlies are not important really.

Well, watching other games out there, I've seen Germany, which is stronger than us, playing at a very high level in several matches. I didn't go very high in any game, even in just the 3 games we played. My maximum importance used was "Normal level" and it wasn't the whole game.I don't like losing, and then arriving and not having the first friendly scheduled (a mistake by the previous management) and having hesitated in the second friendly (my mistake).I felt the need to get the team together faster, and also ensure a good start.

I wanted to ensure a chemistry. But yes, I'm open to suggestions from more experienced managers on what to do next...

Send me your suggestions and ideas by private message or on this forum. I might like them. Just like others who have more ideas, just send them by message. The more ideas I have and the more I understand the nuances, the better my decision will be.

I've looked into this matter further. And you're absolutely right. Any energy spent now could weigh heavily on us at the crucial moment. Luckily, you brought this to my attention early; We will play very low in all the games until the World Cup.
