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

Youtube video

feels like a christmas commercial


presenter Jan-Joost with his singing skills too

[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

[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


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

[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

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



**** off Ultee, crap coach with your cowardly tactics 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 great action from Cordoba too
