    Eh, happens to the best of teams. I remember how my Red Bulls here went from 2nd to 14th in one season. Good times.
  • So, let me revive this thread.


    Today I had my first practice of the season with the U18 development squad. It was mainly fitness though with a 15 minute game outside in 25 degree weather (fahrenheit). During the game our team was split up into 4 teams of 8. We have 32 guys. Around 15 returning from last season. 15 were promoted from the U16s. While the rest are here for try-outs (trials).

    My game ended 0-0 with me playing striker. I was shit. I counted 8 chances and none were converted. I hit only 3 on-target. We had penalties in which the first team to be ahead after a set wins and we only had 4 kicks in which I scored the only penalty. So... a consolation.

    Still, it was Day 1 back. Season does not begin till March for me. Plenty of time.

At first the coach tryed me as a winger because of my pace but i didn't had the stamina to run down the flanks for hole of a match. Then he tryed me as a stricker,i failed miserably. Then as a stopper back. Because of my hight(6'3") & strenth But my passing was way better than of a tipical stopper. Eventualy he played me as midfielder(DM/AM). Where i was best and liked most to play. High point of my footballing life is play in a same team with Asim Biswas former EB,MB & current Mohamedan player. Being selected in the N 24 Parganas team for a state level tournament was another high. But again at the age of 22 i had a back injury which ended my footballing life also.

    Age: 21
    State/Country: Toronto, Canada
    Position: Attacking midfielder, can also play up front or on the wings
    Your current team: Dixie Provincial U-21. 

    Current Season: The season is about to start at the beginning of May

    Last year was supposed to be a big year for me, and then I ended up tearing my hamstring in the first preseaon game I played. Took me eight months to recover, but I'm back now. I graduate university next month, and I plan on visiting India and trying my luck at professional football there. My dream is to represent India at national level, and playing for the Gooners one day wouldn't be bad either. 

    And Rohan, any more news on the U18s? I really hope you've made it, it is amazing that you're playing for the Red Bulls!
