Comme promis mon discours pour les non-francophones:Hello,
My name is Yannick, I’m 33 years old and I‘m a surveyor near Paris. I have always liked to play management and strategy games like Football Manager or Civilization and especially chess which I played during many years in competition.
I have been playing BB for four seasons, which is certainly not much compared with other managers but there’s a French quotation that says that value does not wait for the number of the years! So, I play now in fourth division in France and I have just lost in semi-final, not a bad job given that I form 4 very young players.
Why did I choose Luxembourg NT ?In order to discover another aspect of BB and improve my skills, I decided to manage a NT.
To optimize relations with managers, I looked for a French-speaking country and when I saw Andy Schleck’s acceleration in Telegraphe’s pass I said: I want to coach Luxembourg of course !
More seriously, let’s talk business, Luxembourg is a kind of challenge, becoming the first head-coach to win an official game with this NT will be an honour for me! This season, in the European Championship and its incredible level, it will be too hard, but next season in the comforting, it will be possible !!
My program :In order to reach my goal, which is the first victory of the NT, I will proceed as follows:
1- Make a selection with
players who are still trained by their managers and who will attain their best level next season! (the key is to motivate the managers with Luxembourg players to continue the training even after 21 years)
2- Bet on
complete players with nice secondary characteristics, I will give
priority to defence also because I think defence is the way to victory for modest teams like Luxembourg.
3- Make
audacious tactical choices to beat better teams, we must surprise them, so I will study each to realise the more suitable composition! (Excel is my friend!)
4- The key to survival is
communication ! So I will speak about the team, with managers, with Soren the U21 coach and with malaken boss, the current NT coach !!
So, I’m open to anything, but in my opinion, the ideal rooster is composed of 15 players, with for each position, one player turned towards inside attack, one turned towards outside and one less specialized but more complete.
So I have made a shortlist of 40 players:

In conclusion, I’m not going to lie I am not saying I will lead Luxembourg to world championship title, but I can bring my motivation and my experience to make this team better on long term, knowing that it invovles training our best young players !!!
Thanks for reading me.
