What's all red and loyal to its Chairman? Twente [R]

Why did Mclaren said to Munsterman he wasn't good enough to play CL, when he could buy him at Wolfsburg?

 

Oke then I conclude that the current Twente manager is blind.

 

No I should say that against you, after your remarks about his incapability to make player buying decisions. You do realise he has won the inly title? However it is possible. You can be a decent/good coach but be bad at transfers. Not saying Koeman is a good coach (he has a good staff), but he a horrible buyer of players, starting at Vitesse.

I am sceptical. You were also boggled how Brama was not called up before WC 2010 and after trying out, it was clear he lacked any ability to perform on a high tempo plateau. Handling speed is too low. Douglas idem dito. I don't like football weak links in my team.

 

Bruma already plays at Bundesliga at 19 and 20 years old. So that is not a fact. Mclaren has tested him in CL and he deems him unfit to play CL. We have Ruiz fresh in mind don't we? He was to good for Fulham. Brama was NT material. Both players have not impressed at both teams. We will have to see what he does at his new club and how he will do at the NT. The examples I put in there you were sure off as well.

 

I don't ask their forwards I ask his current trainer. He works with him day in day out and he deems him not good enough.

Ruiz and Brama are people you tended to push forward, like Douglas now by you. Ruiz was even far to good for Fulham. Well, he is so good, that he can sit on the bench that is.

The think of him making another step is, we will come to know what his ceiling is. Brama was also a player doing well in Dutch rating site's, but showed he was not able to cope on higher level. Aagainst Schalke he again showed to have problems.

Douglas also is in the same handling speed category. We will have to see, how he handles himself when more football is demanded, like at the Dutch NT.

 

Ruiz just made a terrible decision which club he joined...am sure once he leaves for club playing more technical football in Spain, or to a team which plays proper football, not the long balls forwards, he will do really good again and he has the ability to show he is good enough for EPL....imho he would fit into Arsenal squad pretty well

Totally agree Douglas is a top class defender, imho he would be a nice addiction into probably any european national team, as most of the countries rates defenders not about how technical and footballing they are, but about the defensive qualities...which in Douglas case are enourmous...

2 johan neeskens - for how many matches is Douglas banned @ Eredivisie ?
And how does it looks like with Wesley Verhoek and his injury ?

 

When Douglas does not play Twente are a different team--he makes them --how do they lose to NEC away?--because Douglas was not there

He will have trouble ever getting on Oranje because:

1-he's a little reckless--red card reckless
2-his very agressive style will cause all the all the diving latin players a field day and probably a PK against us
3- he's proably a giant ego who makes other people sick (the dutch black guy stereotype)

 

That would be amazing if Ruiz would come back, am sure he would get into his old self pretty much soon then

Yeah, these bans based on reputation are always "fair", am sure any Ajax players would get just normal one match ban for this...imho there wasnt anything that serious, compared to other stuff which goes unpunished like these example punishments...
not sure how the defence will look like against Feyenoord without him, i was never overly impressed by Bengtsson, especially after the crappy play by him against NEC...

 

The guy kicked a player when there was no ball around. Don't go crying like Calimero about prejudice. When you're a recidivist, like Douglas, punishments are going to be more severe. Similar to what happened to Suarez en Zlatan.

But I'm sure it's all just racism and/or favoritism according to some people here. Pathetic.

 

Great players generally carry great egos--my mistake

Its rare that you even hear the word homo anymore--even in a derogatory manner--its kind of cycled out here in Canada

 

if u would ever had supported a small, provincial team than your favourite clubs, you would get the point how the scales of justice works "equally" for all sides...somes clubs are just more equal than the others, its always like that...in the refereeing sometimes, and always in these verdicts like bans and punishments, where big club lobby plays its part, and some clubs can never be touched...anyway, enjoy the sunny side of life supporting the majors, and if u cant see the bias, be happy, and compare the amount of titles won and look down to the others and feel good... enough on this topic from me

the 3 match ban for sth like Douglas did is laughable, compared to many more things which got unpunished and Douglas didnt even used the full strengh...i remember much worse fould by Toivonen with elbow which got totally unpunished (not in this game but in general)..this is a clear hystery in this case of Douglas and somebody wants to make him an example...
