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

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

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)

**** 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
