    what are the other strikers like at the club?
     
  2. To be honest I've no clue, as I donot follow ADO. See them play when they're up against a team that I do follow, but that's it.
    But one can try to deduce it from the match day ratings I posted.

    Thanks for replying. I've 2 dutch pals in Den Haag, but they don't follow any sports so I guess i'll have to be content with wikipedia

    After the match, the cameras caught Bjorn approaching Miazga. Matt looked really surprised when Bjorn said something to him. I'm thinking he didn't know Johnsen is a Yank.

    Not surprising, Johnsen was so far below the radar he might as well been a submarine.

  11. 3 times Johnsen in a timespan of about 15 minutes goes on target, but unfortunately for him the goalie is very effective in killing them.

    Only guy we have consistently scoring in a Top 15 Euro league, and he chooses Norway.

    He didn't really choose Norway. We ignored him for a long time and he was irritated about it. He would have accepted an offer from the U.S. if it came first.

    And I wouldn't really call him a consistent scorer. He has all of 5 goals so far this season. Also recently had a stint on the bench. Although from the ratings he's played pretty well overall when he has started and probably didn't deserve the seat.

    I do think the U.S. lost some value from him not having him on the field this cycle. He also is an attacking wing option when we suffered there. May have been better than Arriola or playing the 2-blob fw line.

    True enough. Although he's scored more goals than all our Bundesliga players (JAB0, Chandler0, Johnson1, Wood1, Pulisic2, Aronjo0) combined.
     
  21. But, but, but ....Eredivisie....;)

    5 goals/1 assist in 15 matches. Pretty decent, but nothing we should be apologizing for not capping. And he's 26 as well.
