Deadline for Callups is Friday morning. Well, that's bullsh*t. I have a very busy week and after circles where you had like 5 weeks for callups I now have to rush the whole process. It's not like there were the Christmas days and New Year and all of that, where you could have easily nominated your team with enough time. Oh, wait.

It was a bad mistake to not open the callups sooner. They just flat out forgot about it. But now having just until Friday makes matters even worse. I literally have no idea how to find the time to do this properly. Thanks a lot.



Surely your team won't change that much though?

Yes they should have opened it earlier.

However, they made the manager choices a month ago. Even if callups were not officially open, managers could have still scouted potential players during that time. I know I spent every scout I had over the past 5 weeks scouting potential players for Bosnia so I was ready immediately when they opened the callups window.

That's not the way I work. I use the call ups for Scouting as long as it's reasonable (of course I safe many of them). Also I need to see the team as it is all the time, so I know at which positions I need starters/back-up/talents etc.

I already opened a thread with the suggestion to leave the callups open a little bit longer. It's ok to play the qualification games, but you can leave the callups open. Last circle, they were even open until right of the start of the World Cup (not that they wanted it that way, they just forgot to close it, just like they now forgot to open it). No need to rush it now, after we all had basically no time using the callups. I would appreciate it if more NT coaches would endorse that suggestion just like thymallus (NT coach Switzerland) already did:

I do not support letting callups open past Frday. That gives bigger countries with more teams and a deeper player pool extra time and advantage to build a roster (and take advantage of the additional training time) while small countries are stuck with what they've got.

I think that there is no problem with that suggestion of liberalmente. All managers must have an adequate time to prepare its squad. My team is ready and I have only 1 call up left, but I have no issues if the window is extended for a week.
