Servette also starting the second half with 2 chances, then one for Bellinzona. Servette is the better team, but Bellinzona is always dangerous and Servette has to be careful in defense. But Hope that Eudis, De Azevedo or one of the others can score for Servette
Lustrinelli would be on a 2match ban since the St.Gallen match. Incredible the SFL still didn't treat Bellinzonas appeal anyway, allez Servette !!!
On the way home from La Praille and happy of course. A crowd of 23000 vibrating and celebrating is rare in Geneva. Not comparable with any NT match here. 3 goals after standards although there are no tall strikers at Servette ;-) Servette was the best team in CL and deserved to move up
23k is a great crowd. That is awesome that Servette won. Now the question is how to maintain this momentum, and improve the squad. I will wear my Servette jersey prouldy tomorrow!
The squad already has Superleague level, but a few positions will have to be doubled or need improvement GK: Gonzalez David -> first team Da Silva Fabio André, Novelle Loic -> ask the GK coach -> keep Gonzalez, new second goalkeeper (for example Ferro) Mendes Pendro -> first team or replaced if he returns to Sporting Ruefli Vincent -> first team Schneider Jérôme -> (first team or) sub Baumann Patrik -> first team Routis Christopher -> first team or sub Moubandje Jacques Francois -> first team or sub Maric Oliver -> sub or replaced Schlauri Christian -> sub or replaced Guedes Christophe -> dunno Nater Stéphane -> first team Kouassi Laglais Xavier -> first team Pont Tibert -> sub Pizzinat Lionel -> sub, but keep for sure Moutinho Thierry -> first team potential, but has to prove it. Should be kept anyway De Azevedo Antonio Marcos -> first team Camara Lassana -> scored with Portuguese U-19 vs Germany yesterday. Surely will return to Benfica and be loaned out again -> replace Carneiro André Tiago (André Soares) > similar as Sana, but less potential Esteban Julian -> first team Vitkieviez Matias -> first team Silva Eudi (Eudis) -> first team or sub Karanovic Goran -> sub Mobulu Mfuti -> sub Varela Carlos -> sub so, imo all these players can play in the Superleague. Sana, Soares and Mendes probably return to Portugal. We have an excellent freekicker in De Azevedo and are also great on corners. But in attack, the players are not the tallest. For Sana and Soares only one replacement is needed (as Varela already was added) and maybe a player which has good headers and physical presence to use even more the set pieces qualities in the team. In defense, Mendes was a fix starter before his injury. The others all replaced him well. There too, I would like to see a guy which is quite tall, but still good on passing as a replacement. However, would like to keep Mendes. What can be expected is an even deeper collaboration with Benfica Lisbon as Pishyar has bought their other partner club, Beira Mar. So, basically Pishyar can chose which players he wants to have on loan at Beira Mar and which at Servette.
My little fear about this is which one does he care more about? Beira Mar or Servette? Nice analysis of the players and I agree on most of them. I would love to see two things happen, a commitment to strengthening the team, adding some height to the front line, and quality reserves. The second would be to make sure that the Servette youth teams become the place to play for the youth players in Vaud and Geneve. Carrouge, Nyon, Meyrin, and CS Chenois are nice clubs, but Servette need to make sure that the youth players are going to them.
he lives in Geneva, so he surely is looking after Servette and he wants to win the title within 3 years ;-) Beira Mar cannot be more then a second line club in Portugal . The difference with the top3 teams is too big. in Switzerland, he can approach the top3 much more easily and he was so happy and excited yesterday evening that I'm sure he is looking after Servette
besides, Tozé Marreco is still under contract with Servette while M'Futis contract expires, so maybe MFutis contract should not be renewed or Servette could get a tall striker instead for other players, what about F.Frei? and is hot prospect Kevin Mbabu signing for Arsenal??
one thing yet as this was just so incredible after 21 rounds FC Lugano 52 FC Vaduz 51 FC Lausanne-Sport 44 Servette FC 38 after 30 rounds Lausanne 65 (+21) Servette 62 (+24) Lugano 62 (+10) Vaduz 60 (+9)
I thought that F. Frei belonged to FC Basel and that he was loaned out the FCSG. He is too good of a player to be in the DCL. Come on over, but that really does not address the taller forward for Servette. In other news: FC Baden upset FC Meyrin in the playoffs. Meyrin was the heavy favorite to be promoted. Etoile Carouge did advance along with ES FC Mally - SC Bruhl. With ever sides get promoted, they will have a difficult time staying up with 6 teams being relegated to the 1st Pro league in 2012-2013.
yes, F.Frei belongs to Basel and Hochstrasser belongs to YB, but in both cases it's unsure whether they will return to their teams. Frei had not a good season, but Basel might lose Stocker on a transfer to Bundesliga. Hochstrasser might imagine returning to YB as Petkovic is not there any more. However, he has Italian clubs interested in him
to finish this thread with Servette as we should change to SL/CL 2011-2012... J.Alves was only offered half of the salary first for next season in the SL. Think the chair was a bit jealous of the honors the coach got compared to himself now, they should and have to find a correct agreement and apparently J.Alves aksed the chair to contract Nuno Gomes
If they were promoted, it will keep one the largest media markets in the DCL. Meyrin choked, Carouge can do it.
Carouge (w. Mieville and Roth) made it. So dit Brühl (with Zellweger and De Freitas). Malley had not enough arguments. Tough, Hélin would rather deserve to play in Superleague than in the 1st amateur league.
