This is random,but I'm stanning Az Alkmaar this season. :manny:

They got some good young players. Watch out for these boys in a few years Boadu, Stengs, Idrissi and Koopmeiners.

Depth is a question, but they'll battle for 2nd or 3rd in their league and they can make a decent run in the Europa League assuming they qualify.
Very random, why them?

They had a decent side when Louie van gaal won them the title.

Nice article about it

Naija
Nah, he rejected Naija so he's not a Naija breh. :yeshrug:
I hear ya but we all have been foolish when we were young, he ain’t tied yet so he can still rectify that poor choice :whoa:


Speaking of Naija, no Akpeyi in the squad for next months friendly so hopefully that’s that nikka out the paint for good and young Uzoho returned to his rightful place :blessed:

Awards don't mean shyt unless they for goals or clean sheets. Messi winning in 2010 when both his teams did phuck all outside of La Liga and Sneijder won the CL and made the WC final (the exactly thing that Modric won it for) and was clearly top 3 at the World Cup and didn't come anywhere.

BTW He only won the award because of accumulative stats. :mjlol: Only finished top 10 in Aerial duels, if he cannot win those at 6'4, should retire. Didn't finish Top 25 in any of the dribbling, tackling or passing stats either. But that's the best midfielder in Serie A for 18/19 :scust:

Messi scored 90 goals that season, no?
