4-2-3-1? Xavi and Iniesta behind Messi, Villa in front of him with wingsupport from Pedro and Afellay?

I dont think you should expect much after the winter. From what I understood is that Barca wanted Afellay in the winter and not in the summer, so he would have time to get used to Barca. The 2nd half of this season should be more of a preparation for next season. I guess in the end it all...

His nickname over here is Ibi

I think Ajax fans in disguise. :P

That doesnt mean he doesnt have a decent shot. It means he needs to improve his efficiency.

Just read an article where it states that Wesley Sneijder and Robin van Persie are dissapointed that Inter and Arsenal didnt buy Afellay. Looks to me that they wouldnt stick their neck out if they werent convinced that he can succeed at a European topclub. Both players know what qualities are...

That used to be his skill....now other players and his lack of form get under his own skin, resulting in ridiculous behavior. Ibrahimovic is a worldclass striker, no doubt. But I dont think he had the willingness to adapt to Barca. Possibly because he thinks he doesnt have to due to his...

I had the privilege to watch Ronaldo when he was coming up the ranks, but Id put Reis on the same level without a doubt. Yes, he had some problems, but he had the worst childhood you can imagine. Living in poverty, with a father who is a crackhead and who left them when he was young. Its not...

0-0 poor game, with a strange ending. A bit dissapointed by the topplayers on both sides.

I think you misunderstood my comment. Im not saying Ajax didnt deserve to win. 4-1 says it all, good for them. But if you look at the cause of that endresult you have to dissect the match in parts and not just look at the score. Iv watched the game twice. In the first half PSV dominated the...

Nice footage. Brings back memories. Also a couple of goals against Ajax. ;)

In my opinion thats not true. Iv seen all the matches. Look at last years match where PSV won 4-3 and look at the analysis that Gullit made. He praised Afellay for changing the game for us after we conceded a first goal within 5 minutes. Last season we lost the match in the ArenA even though we...

Not sure what you mean by inconsistent. He has been the most consistent PSV-player for the last 3 or 4 years. He always ends up high in the VI Pro klassement and other magazines/newspapers that give players scores after the weekend. He is on #1 this year as well.

PSV also has to play Sampdoria in Italy.

It wasnt the best game of the Dutch squad. But Afellay still had strong moments. The pass on Lens should have been a goal, but Lens hesitated instead of passing the ball to Huntelaar at the first touch. The pass on Huntelaar in the 2nd half after the 1-0 was excellent as well. Huntelaar should...

Yes, but he can still play CL.

Just made this pic. I think he ll get #20, its his fav number and its available. He looks good in a Barca outfit, doesnt he?

lol Won't argue with you about that statement. Even Seedorf complained about him saying that Enoh kicks for 90 minuten and the ref doesnt punish him at all. It was after Ajax - AC Milan. I have some quotes from Afellay for you guys. Its from an interview in el mundo. About his transfer...

He got frustrated in that match. It was the first and last time I saw him react in that way. He learned from it. This saturday is Ajax - PSV again. Its a good game for you guys to judge his skills.

I think its a matter of increasing competition and just sit back and watch who will win the fight. Thats the way to increase the level of a squad.
