Good news about Wazoo, but why don't you tell more about your mate Chinese? Isn't it your style to go deep and public on it? Or you are happy this time to give all our NT inside information to China?
I'm happy you asked for it. I have no problem to give all background of this situation
The reason of adding Chinese to my staffIt was simple: no willingness to help from Lithuanians. I've asked many times...without any answer. I decided that better hire someone (even from outside) than nobody because I couldn't efficiently lead a training of so many players.
Generally, I have very positive memories from cooperation with Lithuanians at beginnig of my adventure with Lithuania NT (e.g. I was very satisfied with cooperation with Ignazzaz). Later on, a lot of dissapointments (no serious willingness to help, many ridiculus attitudes: like resignations after a few days after getting access to database etc.). I don't know why. Maybe simply attractive of game decreased, or maybe Lithuanians generally aren't so involved in NT (in fact most the best players were trained abroad).
About access to database: My assistants have never got access to database of NT players. They got only skills of youth players (not shaped finally) on which they've worked. So skills are safe.
Why I dismissed Chinese mate?Because it was temporary solution. When Wazoo submitted his candydacy I agreed immidiately and I have big hopes on this cooperation. It sounds very promising.
