Dabartiniai 27-26 mečiai yra jau mano prižiūrėta karta. Visa kita Kozliko palikimas dar.
Hi
I can't fully agree with this.
1. You are a NT manager 5th season so you had key influence on final shape of players who were 25yo 5 seasons ago and currently are 29yo.
2. You were in my staff before you started to be NT manager and staff were responsible for leading groups of players from 22-25yo. I gave my indications but generally staff had full freedom in leading players....but of course, I agree main responsibility was mine as a head manager.
Generally FOR SURE training wasn't ideal during my time (I belive nowadays can be better) because it couldn't be while I was doing eveything ALONE most of the time. I think I admited this honestly many times and asked whole community for help and bigger involement to change this many times...but kozlik hasn't complained and was able to do historical results immediately using what he had: silver medal on EC in 3rd season, gold medal of WC in 4th season and then 5 more medals including gold on EC. Not once thanks to luck but 7 times in along of dozen seasons with few generations of players. When I took over Lithuania NT, the team were in pretty the same place like currently, far away from medals.
Did I have a lot of high quality players like the best nations like Spain, France, Italy, China then? Of course,
NOT.
Is it genrally possible to make better players than spanish, french, italian, chinese national training system when you work alone? Of course,
NOT...but I was fully involved to change this.
I did many things to promote training to NT in community. I tried to incject it into Lithuanians blood like it is in the best BB nations. I remember complaints how uneconomic this is and many another obstacles which I had to face. Despite all of this I think I had few successes in this area. I would like to believe that these my activity then will pay off in the future or even pay off currently. I mean that a few managers really started to love training during my times and I believe they still love to do this and do this currently for Lithuania NT more succesfully being equipped with experience gaining during my times.
I would be very happy seeing great generation of players on Lithuania and I really wish you this. I wish you also even better results than during my time:-) ALL THE BEST!
