to answer the 1st question, i think it would depend on the players available to the national team and the opponents strengths and weaknesses. looking at recent losses in the past few months for the national team i think the defending both inside and outside needs to be improved, so hopefully there may be some good players out there to fill this need or hopefully some are training players in this area, as i currently am training inside defending again starting next week with my league team. hopefully that somewhat answers your question.

2nd question. well i think i really got lucky winning that game. BC Torooo is a stronger team than mine. i think he played TIE which hurt him and i changed my defense and offense to tactics that were a little different than my recent games and how i thought it gave my team a better chance to do well against his lineup. my thinking tactically usually goes with what i think i can do to play to my strengths and my opponents weaknesses shown through game tactic trends shown previously. hopefully that answers that question for you too.

thanks for the questions.

Thank you very much to all that decided to give me the vote of confidence, I will try not to disappoint.

As stated before, this will be a tough act to follow. I personally think Canada NT overachieved in previous term, but I will do my best to keep our flag up.

I did not get the access to the team yet, once I have it I will take a close look at stats.

Please let me know about your star players that are not yet included in the team, and let me know of your star draft picks to keep them tracked down for the future. Let me know the current training regime and intentions for the players submitted.

I am a little uneasy about the fact that I have under 1 week until our first game... and it is an official game as well. That will make it difficult to do a lot of juggling with the team. Thankfully, the previous manager did a good job setting up the team but I would still have liked to have couple of weeks to prepare. Because of this, your support and speed of reaction in submitting prospects will be a very important asset.

I would also love if some of the managers with proven record and experience could offer their services for scouting and other little maintenance chores.

I might end up doing what GM-oeuftete did at times, meaning dropping players from the team and bringing them back once scouting is complete. I still need to figure how enthusiasm will work with the new game coming and all, so I will have to get back to you on this one.

Again, thanks for confidence.
