Sorry, I forgot about that lol. But Mexico unfortunately didn't fall for the "look inside", if they had the game would've been different.

I feared it can go wrong when i heard of 1-3-1. I think a 3-2 would have been more appropriate, but it worked out eventually.

I don't know mate. We contended well with the top teams, we should have a pretty decent shot in second chance qualifiers. Besides the fact that we have lower enthusiasm, our squad is going to be in pretty good shape compared to some others.

P.S - So are we going to be up against Chile next?

Dude, you're doing a good job with Canada. Our squad may not be getting much training, but we have a good squad. Tactics are always set well. Game shape isn't always that high so that might be a main problem. It just isn't clicking, I don't know what it is.

You are doing great bud! It's just that we aren't getting quality training to the few wave of Canadian players. Hopefully we can turn it around on this next draft.

I think we can blame the community for not training players. However, we can also blame the training system, too.

For example - look at my NT player Wendon. Next season he'll be 22 and will start his downhill climb into very slow training. At that point, I can either decide to keep training him to help the NT or sell him and get lots of cash to help my team.

I don't have to worry about his salary so much since he is probably one of the most balanced players out there. However, I would hate to be training a centre for the NT who just hit 22. Would you even be able to afford to keep training him unless you are having a good season in Naismith?

The only benefit to having an NT player is a slight experience bonus and maybe (a little) glory. At some point you are going to be hurting your team by continuing to train NT players.

i would agree with the training of players for the nt as to hurting your own team could be a problem. I know I have focused alot of my teams training over the past couple of months toward a player that will be ready for the U21's in another month or two. But this has come at the expense of other players and positions for my team.

I figured I should do this, especially since I put my own team ahead of the nt previously when i stopped training my backup Center, who would have been good enough this season for the U21 team if i focused more training towards him during the past 4-5 months.
