Great start! Taking benfica out to make the group stage. Hopefully you can beat PSG. good start with the green parties. Just need to hope Ajax has a couple of red parties throughout the seasonĀ 

Thanks :) I have a better feeling of being able to beat PSG than when the group draw was made... that would be an amazing achievement. LetĀ“s hope we can perform! I find Feyenoord stronger than Ajax this season but we will see...Ā

Not Quite

Ā 

RESULTS

spacer.png

Could have been a fantastic month. ButĀ PSGĀ cruelly showed us that they are a world class team and we have a long way to go if we want to reach their heights.Ā 

spacer.png

We had qualified until the 95th minute came... One last corner (stoppage time was supposed to be only FOUR minutes!) and then the ball hitĀ ChirilaĀ and made it unstoppable for our goalie. **** happens I guess. Better luck next time. Blah blah blah.

Third. We will go to theĀ Europa LeagueĀ and playĀ Everton.

We took all our wrath out on our next opponent. Bad luck for Ajax.

Van der Pol is slowly catching up to Letica.Ā MohammadĀ and Leonardo LuizĀ made a great leap in theirĀ development last season as well.Ā DantasĀ set a new assists record withĀ 22.Ā RambertĀ andĀ ParillaĀ had nice double-doubles as had player of the yearĀ Fiete Arp.

Transfer Time

spacer.png

No bis departures this season. Just a few players we did not need anymore had to go.Ā The rest are loans to develop the youngsters.

Ā 

Jefferson Sierra

spacer.png

19 year old central midfielder from Colombia. We pay 2.4MĀ toĀ Atletico Nacional. Great First Touch (16) and Technique (15). He could learn fromĀ Dantas.

Ā 

Ritchie Geurtsen

spacer.png

The 23 year old Dutch playmaker impressed me atĀ HeerenveenĀ last season. We payĀ 12.5MĀ to sign him. Vision (16), Decisions (17) and his first touch (16) make him a great prospect.

Leonardo LuizĀ andĀ Fredrik MohammadĀ both developed very nicely in the last season. Great to see the crop get into bloom.Ā GabrijelicĀ is growing fast as well.

Ā 

Midfielders

I think we have a great midfield. And nowĀ GeurtsenĀ andĀ SierraĀ joined.

Famous Words

Ā 

RESULTS

spacer.png

We beat the once mightyĀ Ajax 4-1Ā and it was after this game that my ass man, asked aboutĀ Arps great performance with 2 goals,Ā said the famous sentence "I wouldnĀ“t swap him for anyone, not evenĀ Mason Grreenwood". Then we lose toĀ PSGĀ but its okay given it was the away game and we scored a vital goal.Ā SpartaĀ seem strong again this season so a draw is not too bad for us. A must-win againstĀ HeraclesĀ followed a massiveĀ 2-1Ā home victory againstĀ Benfica.

Gifted Goals

Ā 

RESULTS

spacer.png

Disappointment at the beginning of the month as we lose our CL game againstĀ LeipzigĀ but it didnt come unexpected. Next was a game no fan will easily forget: We scored 8 goals against newly promotedĀ N.E.C.Ā andĀ Gift RooiĀ walked away as the Player of the match with the ball after scoring 4 (!) goals. He took advantage ofĀ ArpĀ being sidelined for some days and excelled inĀ Arps position up front as poacher. This gave us confidence and the following games were won without great effort. ThenĀ NACĀ visited us and we only managed a draw... but its ok the lads were just tired I guess.

spacer.png

A matchĀ to remember.

If we win againstĀ Benfica andĀ LeipzigĀ beatĀ PSGĀ we will qualify as 2nd in the group.

TRANSFER NEWS

spacer.png

A lot of departures in the January transfer window!Ā MunozĀ was upset he didnĀ“t get as many games as he expected and made noises about it in the dressing room so off he went.Ā HanssonĀ was more diplomatic and agreed to a loan to get more playing time. YoungsterĀ MaierĀ and Reserve team strikerĀ KuppersĀ also went out on loan. ThenĀ PSVĀ came in with an offer for our keeperĀ Erik van der Pol. He definitely wanted to leave so I let him and we got niceĀ 6MĀ for him. Now we of course had to bring in another keeper to challengeĀ Letica.Ā 

Ā 

spacer.png

So we brought in 23 year old Serbian national team keeperĀ Dalibor MilovanovicĀ fromĀ LiverpoolĀ for 14.75M.Ā ThatĀ“s a lot of money for us but we were able to divide in into 3 instalments. TurnsĀ out he is way better than the agingĀ LeticaĀ already and will be our new number one with immediate effect.Ā

Season Summary

Ā 

spacer.png

spacer.png

spacer.png

spacer.png

MilovanovicĀ was planned to become our new first choice keeper, but he got injured in February and veteranĀ LeticaĀ had to cover for him for the rest of the season. But new he is fit again and ready to be our number one. Our defence made a big step forward as a unit.Ā ParillaĀ had another double-double andĀ ArpĀ became Top Scorer ofĀ  theĀ EredivisieĀ once more.

Transfer Time

spacer.png

ZimmermannĀ was let go because he would not keep quiet on the subject of joining a bigger club.Ā LeticaĀ left after he noticed he wouldnt be our first choice keeper anymore.

Ā 

Alvaro Fernandez

spacer.png

TheĀ Real MadridĀ academy product (26) joins fromĀ SevillaĀ forĀ 3.6MĀ after stints atĀ Manchester United, Preston North End and Celta Vigo.Ā A very technical (15) left defender with good acceleration (15) and pace (16).Ā 

Ā 

Paul Brandes

spacer.png

The 22 year old German right winger joins fromĀ Fortuna DĆ¼sseldorfĀ Ā for a fee ofĀ 5M. He already has 12 U21 caps forĀ Germany. His Technique (18) is outstanding and he can really dribble (15).

Ā 

Ā 

Julian Burkhardt

spacer.png

22 year old Colombian central midfielder who already got 2 caps for his country. Tackling (15), Determination (17) , Bravery (17), Balance (16), Stamina (16) all help him being a good Ball Winning Midfielder.Ā 5.5MĀ go toĀ Stade Brestois.

Ā 

Matteo Festa

spacer.png

Originally planned as a backup Target Man up front, the 19 year old Italian striker can also play as a central defender! His physical attributes prove that. We payĀ 1.9MĀ toĀ Genoa.

Ā 

Milenko Menting

spacer.png

We needed a 3rd keeper asĀ LeticaĀ left so we called him up from ourĀ Reserve Team. Good reflexes (14). But thats about it.
