[Nicky91]

friendly match

arminia bielefeld - psv


van nistelrooy reveals new captain


Benitez, Hoever, Teze, Luckassen, Max, Van Ginkel, Til, Veerman, Madueke, De Jong (C), Gakpo

reserves: Drommel, Sambo, Seelt, Kreekels, Vos, Saibari, Ledezma, Xavi Simons, Antonisse, Vertessen, Bakayoko

[Nicky91]

think i feel cautiously optimistic regarding upcoming season


yes of course there are always strong players set to be leaving, but i'm glad we were able to permanently sign Ivo Pinto and Dimitrios Siovas since they were crucial in our defence for not letting opponents score too many goals against us

Rienstra leaving well i respect him but since his heart problems he hasn't been in his top form, and maybe Dogan is a good replacement for his ''defensive midfield'' position

Matsoe Matsoe Seuntjens has to stay hopefully, we need our bit of matsoe matsoe time too with some of his genius moments

am looking forward to seeing Yilmaz play for us, gives the eredivisie big boost as well, a player of his status in our league

hoping talent like Baghdadi, Ferati have more luck in shining a lot more this season than their first season

am curious about Vita, and hopefully he can do as decent as Cox as left back

[Nicky91]

next week exactly is the super cup Johan Cruijff Schaal

PSV vs Ajax


and the week after, matchround 1 (i'm really excited for the season to start now, we immediately got a tough one in Ajax, but at home, and Ajax lost many players this market and Fortuna did some really really good signings)

[Nicky91]

our ''welcome back eredivisie'' promo

NeFp_6-tMG4

feels like a christmas commercial :laugh: :love:


presenter Jan-Joost with his singing skills too :joker:

[Nicky91]

tonight super cup johan cruijff schaal

ajax - psv


kinda hope ajax wins it, since last year psv won it and we ended up being a pile of **** the entire season

[Nicky91]

PSV won with 5-3 in a thriller of a super cup match


3x Guus Til, what a way to debut for your new club

1 world goal and action of Xavi Simons, Messi Style

and Gakpo



goals from Ajax were from Bergwijn, Antony, Kudus

[Nicky91]

am really excited for next week now

Fortuna - Ajax


our Noslin also having the balls to just say our ambitious for this season where we wanna finish ''towards european cup football''




think our starting 11 will be like

V.Osch

Vita, Rodrigo Guth, Siovas, Pinto

Erdogan, Duarte

Noslin, Seuntjens, Cordoba

Yilmaz


backup options: Pandur (GK) Hogervorst, V.Beijnen, Ferati, Sourlis, Baghdadi, Gladon, Tirpan (once his suspension is over at the club for inappropriate, aggressive behaviour on training)


we got a good main squad but i personally would put Ferati in main 11 instead of Duarte, more creativity next to controlling midfielder Erdogan

also hoping Baghdadi will make lots of minutes as he's a huge talent on right wing position, although his bad luck that Noslin now seems to be peaking massively


and we likely have Bassett still to come if we can sort out his paperwork and visa

[Nicky91]

very enjoyable first matchround of keukenkampioen divisie


sorry LT, but your ADO got quite a beating last night, 4-0 away loss against Heracles Almelo

not a good debut at all for Dirk Kuyt as manager




our city's team FC Eindhoven 1-3 away win over FC Den Bosch :love:

[Nicky91]

Burak Yilmaz will be on the reserves bench against Ajax!


not 100% fit is reason he is not starting immediately, having not trained for a long time with the group due to getting a work visa and that takes some time



so he might make minutes after all :love:


i'd say our starting 11 is like this


V.Osch

Vita, Rodrigo, Siovas, Pinto

Duarte, Erdogan

Cordoba, Seuntjens, Noslin
Gladon


deffo not Tirpan in starting 11, after his outburst in training, but i hope he'll soon rejoin the squad, definitely a contender to be co-captain i think

[Nicky91]

ajax a simple and dominant 2-3 win over fortuna

[Alf]

KeukenkampioendivisieThose Dutch make life hard for themselves. I wonder if they call it "Keuk" for short?

[Nicky91]

not too badly played at all from Fortuna on the contrary, very well played

Yilmaz his first goal immediately in his eredivisie debut

Tirpan did play surprisingly so the talks with the coach and sports director went well then



just bad luck we were up against a unbeatable champion ajax




stunning free kick goal from Yilmaz too

his wife and kids in audience :love:

[Nicky91]

not exactly the start i was hoping for


2 losses :( but ok fair enough against twente, the heat was also a major problem for us



and Ultee really needs to play Yilmaz, Cordoba from the start and not from reserves


am pleased what i see from Rodrigo so far in defence, all goals we conceded weren't a major defensive problem, also in all fairness we lost to ajax and twente, two really good teams (whom are of top 2 and top 5 quality respectively)



now home match saturday vs cambuur and we must win this one to get our first points of the season


hopefully also first minutes for Bassett now

[Nicky91]

third loss in a row, and against a weaker cambuur thx to 4 lucky distance shot goals :idc:



**** off Ultee, crap coach with your cowardly tactics :yuk: playing Cox and not Vita is a mistake against weaker opponents when you need someone who is faster on the wings



i know everything better than this Ultee turd



Yilmaz second goal of the season :love: great action from Cordoba too

[Nicky91]

new coach it is then, my wish came true


i personally wouldn't mind a turkish coach, Terim or Gunes have plenty of experience



and we do have a good team, so despite the 3 losses in first 3 games, i still have faith in our squad



our owner getting lots of criticism by dutch fans everywhere lol, but we had a pretty solid and more than decent transfer window now

permanently signing Pinto, Siovas is ace

Yilmaz, Cordoba, Erdogan whom are normally too good for a team like us, coming here is amazing, especially also Erdogan a player similar to Rodriguez few years back who we were looking for another type like that in midfield
new talent like Vita, but also loanees Pandur, Sourlis good backup options
selling Flemming was less, but keeping Seuntjens good (and where we sold Zian, we got Cordoba, Yilmaz in return)

Ferati is a supertalent here, Noslin good to see him peaking so far in preparation season against shakhtar for example


Tirpan i'm a fan of his hard work and i have a weak for him, with his girlfriend who got MS disease


keeping Cox is a surprise, but now we got two good left back options in him and Vita

[Nicky91]

there won't be a turkish coach at fortuna, sjoerd ars said

also yilmaz doesn't decide everything, media makes up a lot of bull**** for the clicks, ars said as well, Yilmaz does provide coaches with advice, and that is more than normal considering his status

[Nicky91]

2-1 loss vs Heerenveen away :(


UGH, once again well played but no points in another tricky game, 3/4 first games were tricky (ajax, twente, heerenveen) only cambuur home we should've won that one i think



debut of Vita last few minutes of the match, coming in for Tirpan (whom had few mistakes but overall worked real hard again)

debut of Pandur was sensational, great goalie, good competition for V.Osch


another goal from Yilmaz, a penalty this time


first starting 11 place for newcomer Bassett, one half though, before being replaced by Gladon to bring fresh offensive options in


lovin Vergoossen, the new interim coach his tactics more than Ultee, 2-0 behind and bringing in more creativity (Ferati) for defensive midfield (Erdogan) no guts no glory



am hoping Phillip Cocu will be our new manager, he fits our preferred playing style well, some tactics he also liked using at PSV and one can create a solid team in no time i think + he already has experience with turkish owners (Fenerbahce days)

[Nicky91]

first 3 points for Go Ahead Eagles last night

2-3 away win over Volendam

1-0 Eiting (Volendam's 1.000th goal)

**** off Nijhuis, stupid referee and his other officials

:idc:


NEC should've gotten a red card, no way Vita was offside



3-2 controversial cup loss :(



and also V.Osch hopefully last time he played, what a horrible goalkeeper compared to the calmness of Pandur



also such bad luck in 90+3 last chance of the match for 3-3 by Yilmaz, so unlucky narrowly missed header :sad:


but tbh its only the cup, league is more important that we do well in that

[Nicky91]

Fortuna Sittard has signed croatian defender Stipe Radic after a successful 2 weeks trial, on a free transfer

and has let Mats Seuntjens go through the backdoor (i don't care anymore about him, he had a awful first half of the season since he was made captain and we have better so, Ozzy can also play on 10 maybe and he has a more powerful distance shot)

[Nicky91]

FC Utrecht has terminated the contract of coach Henk Fraser, after last saturday there have been a incident of Fraser grabbing player Amin Younes by the throat

[Nicky91]

**** off, slow snails of Fortuna :idc:


Erdocrap more like instead of Erdogan


losing at home 0-2 to Go Ahead, more like mid table keukenkampioen division level :idc: :idc:


also subbing Embalo in half time when he was one of better players first half :rolleyes: for a flop Buitink no less :rolleyes:

[Nicky91]

2 chances, 2 goals, nice unexpected 2-2 draw vs PSV, where PSV were the stronger team, and we were down to 10 men thx to erdogan's red card, but amazing how we kept fighting for a point, and we got a point in 10th minute of extra time with a penalty by Yilmaz!


also the debut of Stipe Radic (quite decent i guess, got subbed but understandable if you want to start playing all or nothing, good on Velazquez being so risky, at the end of the day, doesn't matter if you go down 1-2 or 1-5, but 2-2 the risk paid off :love:)


Cangiano didn't play yet, was too soon for him

[Nicky91]

shame this 3-1 away loss at AZ, but we played well enough


16 points is still decent at this almost halfway stage of the season


last week was a surprise point home vs psv anyway





next up home vs Heerenveen on wednesday, new round new chances

[Nicky91]

last weekend, Burak Yilmaz scored his 250th club competition goal in his entire career :D despite the 3-1 loss in alkmaar

[Nicky91]

solid 2-0 home win for Fortuna over Heerenveen, first home win again since October 2nd


1-0 Embalo (Yilmaz)
2-0 Yilmaz



comeback from Siovas too in second half :love: The Greek Beast is back!!!!!!!

[Nicky91]

for next season RKC Waalwijk have to begin their search for a new manager

Joseph Oosting will leave after this season and signs as new manager of FC Twente, where Ron Jans recently has announced he is leaving to spend more time with his family

[Nicky91]

promoted for next season: PEC Zwolle, Heracles Almelo (will still be a battle between the two who is this seasons KKD champions and runner up though)

relegated are: FC Groningen, SC Cambuur


now mostly about who's heading for promotion/relegation play offs for the third ticket into next seasons eredivisie



battle for the title, almost certain going to Feyenoord

2nd place looking like going to PSV but not sure yet, also Ajax still has a tiny chance but they could also still lose their current 3rd place to AZ


for the europa play offs so far in contention: Sparta, FC Utrecht, RKC Waalwijk, SC Heerenveen and a slight chance for NEC maybe

for safer direct european cup tickets: AZ, Twente but Twente could also still go into those play offs and Sparta stealing their 5th spot

[Nicky91]

Feyenoord are the champions of this seasons Eredivisie


promoted are: Heracles Almelo (champions of KKD) PEC Zwolle

relegated are: FC Groningen, SC Cambuur


to the play offs for promotion/relegation

FC Emmen (16th place eredivisie)



round 1 matches

FC Eindhoven - Almere City

VVV Venlo - Willem II

NAC Breda - MVV Maastricht





last matchround of eredivisie next weekend

some crucial ones to decide whom end in places 5-8 for european conference league ticket play offs

and who finishes in 2nd (for qualifyings CL) 3rd, 4th places (qualifyings for europa league)
