Fenerbache going for victory in Division 1 this season?


The team has started the new season well. The last two years the great
Scandinavian Manager, Mika Nihtilä, has been rebuilding the team with some
scandinavian touch. Last season 22 players left and 17 came in. This season
11 has left and 3 came in. The squad has been completely rebuilded and so
far it is much more powerful.

After the first 8 games of the season Fenerbache has only lost 2 games and
has 1 draw.

Important players this season will be R Nanni and Ze Mario, both players are in top in
player ratings and has started the new season well.

Big disappointment so far is the Swedish
national Goalkeeper, Isaksson. He's only 22 years old and the Manager believes he can be
in top 3 in Europe in the next 3 seasons.

Also the defending must be better in the future if Fenerbache has the ambition to be in
the top even in the premier. Two new DC's has arrived and the most promising young DMC (Gerber, M) from
the German league.

Blackburn Rovers continue to make their presence felt in the top half of the European Premiership, confounding the predictions of most pundits and other so-called 'experts' of the game. In a fast and furious game at the Arena, they earned a good 3-3 draw which leaves them in 5th place in the league table, only a handful of points behind leaders Marseille and Udinese.

Ajax Amsterdam 3, Blackburn Rovers 3.

There was no observation round between these two attacking sides, and as early as the 2nd minute Doumbé headed home EstefanÃ*a's corner kick after a well-timed run to the far post. But eight minutes later Ajax struck back through a thumping header from the penalty spot by Miroslav Klose, leaving Tim Howard no chance at all. Play then swung from one penalty box to the other until Blackburn were awarded a free-kick on the edge of the area, slightly to the right of the Ajax goal. Oskitz EstefanÃ*a's superb curling strike found the top right-hand corner, putting Rovers 2-1 up on 29 mins, a lead they comfortably held on to until half-time.

Blackburn returned to the field without James McEveley, who had taken a knock just before the break, and was replaced by Celestine Babayaro, whilst Ajax brought on plucky Belgian marksman Wesley Sonck, a substitution that was to have a very strong bearing on the final result.

An Ajax corner delivered from the right by Sebastian Deisler was met by Sonck's glancing header, and Ajax were back on terms in the 53rd minute. Thirteen minutes later disaster struck for Blackburn, as Babayaro rashly brought down Sonck although the latter posed no immediate threat to Rovers' goal. Zdenek Grygera converted the penalty kick, and for the first time in the game Ajax were ahead, much to the delight of their fans. But on 78 mins a succession of quick passes ended in a fine darting run by Pablo Niño, who cut the ball back from the left of the Ajax goal and found Stefan Moore, leaving the young striker with an open goal and the easiest of equalizers. Despite both teams applying pressure in the closing stages of the game, there was no further scoring and it ended in a 3-3 draw, which left both managers wondering whether to praise the attacking drive of their players or to deplore the lack of serenity so evident in the defensive play.

Anderlecht struggle to find their rhythm
It has been a disappointing start to the season for Anderlecht, even though it was not an entirely unpredictable one. Manson was hopeful his team could do well even in the toughest league in the world, after reinforcing the team following their complete domination of the 1st division. However the first division and the Premiership are two galaxies apart, and the sad truth is that minnows Anderlecht might not have what it takes to compete with some of the biggest clubs in the world. You can have a look at the Belgian club's results for yourselves:

Anderlecht's last couple of matches have given them a lot of hope, and the belief that they might be able to compete with other teams in this ultra-competitive league after all. It is a wonder that Atletico Madrid and Mallorca, who both finished behind Anderlecht in the First Division last season, should be doing so well, considering their limited ressources (still less limited than Anderlecht's ressources).
Anderlecht's best player so far is Julien Rantier, with a 7.50 average rating, 10 goals scored, 2 assists, and 5 man of the match awards in just 12 games! (including 3 starts as substitute). The two star defenders Mexes and De la Cuesta have both had poor starts tot he seasons and are a substantial part of the reason for the their team's poor start. Another huge disappointment is Irish stiker Robbie Keane, who has had massive problems settling into the Anderlecht attack alongside Rantier. He has not scored a single goal in 13 matches, and has an average rating of 6.00 .
As if things could not possibly go any worse for Keane and his club, he suffered a 2 month injury after his 13th game (coincidence?) which soon turned into 5 months following Manson's decision to send him to rehabilitation. This, coupled with Keane's atrocious start, probably means that Anderlecht will be hyper-actively looking for a world class striker come the next transfer window. Ronaldo's name has been mentioned more than once, but Manson is insisting he has other players within his line of vision.
