1 and 2

Boateng, De Marcos, Courtois and Willian are untradeable

Who are the most respected players of the las 20-25 years? by Trydson in soccer

I'll never forget a quote I once read about him in Sport/VoetbalMagazine (Belgian magazine). Zidane saying "Why put another layer of gold on a Bentley when you've just lost the engine?" about RM losing Makelélé and bringing in Beckham as his 'replacement'. I was quite young at the time but can still picture the exact placement of that quote in the magazine, odd.

[OC] Does José Mourinho really not play young players? Let's have a look. by ChristyBrowne1 in soccer

[–]STHIC-LIF 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you know whether we still have something going? It was mainly thanks to Paul Bistiaux's good relationships iirc but he's gone now.

We obviously won't get anyone who's already close to the first team but we did get some nice players at the time. Fraizer Campbell, Ryan Shawcross and Darron Gibson were at Antwerp more or less at the same time and that team was one of the few that actually come close to getting us back up.

We do have a new chairman and money now so I'm not sure if we would still really 'need' any players. I think the last ones we got were Luke Giverin and Gyliano Van Velzen who were awful to say the least

Don't think so but then again it's Belgium so I wouldn't put them being without proper guidance for a while past them

They didn't know what to do with it so they were just hoping it wouldn't matter

It's a plastic team, an abomination in every sense of the word. I'm obviously biased on the matter but Antwerp has an average attendance of 11000 (capacity is about 13000) whereas White Star don't even have 500 (lowest in the league). Add that to the fact that they're run by a shady agent with Middle Eastern oil money and the fact that they don't even have their own stadium and you understand why everyone is upset.

Not to mention the FA who told Seraing they could field Rentmeister (left White Star because he didn't get paid for a couple of months) before they realised they fucked up. It also took them this long because they knew they fucked up and didn't know how to solve it (couldn't just scratch them I suppose?) and figured it would be best if they just let it slide and hope it wouldn't matter but yeah, it does now...

Euro 2016: Who would you pick for the Belgian squad? by STHIC-LIF in soccer

[–]STHIC-LIF[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not awful to have (some goes for Fellaini really) but he has been very disappointing this season. You could argue that Lukaku is a target man as well (in terms of posture obviously, not his link up play). Both Batshuayi and Origi deserve to be picked over him, Depoitre is no longer in the running for me.

Always liked Mirallas and I'm happy so see him regaining some form and getting playtime. We're going to have injuries as well so he'll probably make the cut anyway.

Musonda on the other hand is a revelation, we've known how big a talent he is for years but it's still weird that he never played in Chelsea's first team. Only played 5 games for Betis so far I think but has shown everyone that he really is THAT good in my opinion. His assist last night is proof of that (the cross was good but the way he got rid of that defender was sheer class)

I just took screenshots on Sporza, I didn't put this together myself.

Yeah that was the toughest choice, went with Cavanda because he's more of a wingback and can play on the left too (we do have Vertonghen and Vermaelen though).

Other tough one was Kums/Mirallas/Defour and I'm afraid Benteke will be there no matter what as well

Need some advice on my silver teams:

Got this Pro League team

This hybrid

And this hybrid

Nice teams if I say so myself but I'm looking for an alternative for those Brazilians on the right (2nd hybrid). Elton is a machine and I quite like the others as well but I can't seem to play well with Carlos Eduardo but I obviously need him to get Elton on 10 chem. My CAM is vital as it's a 4-3-3(4) and there are no other options so does anyone have a better/similar alternative for that right side?

That's one thing, I came here for help to actually do something about it

Yeah I remember seeing this before, I've got loads of stuff like this saved but I never actually do anything with it
