FORZA STEAUA​

 

[theo]

great job hoping for a perfect season

 

[Emte]

Hagi was very good player. But I don't know how good he is as manager...
Good luck in any case!

I support eastern europe clubs in european cups, so I wish see Steaua in CL this season, once again

Unfortunately Legia will play only in Intertoto Cup and Zaglebie Lubin (polish champion) is too poor to play in CL...

Bullsh*t!

If Zagłębie is poor, so how do you rate Legia? Sorry for offtopic.

 

[Emte]

Bullsh*t!

If Zagłębie is poor, so how do you rate Legia? Sorry for offtopic.

Zaglebie has got very low coefficient... Everybody know that Zaglebie this year won't play in CL because of stadium, stupid transfers (for example Wlodarczyk) and no preparation of club to play in this championship.
Zaglebie president said that their success will be play in third qualification round... Very ambitious.

 

[Tosiek]

What about Artmedia Bratislava, huh?

If you want to talk about it more open Legia thread...

 

[theo]

Paraschiv apparently agreed terms with Rimini.
New rumours about us getting Golanski, don't know if we should go for him or not.

 

[Tosiek]

Probably you won't sign him.

He is linked with move to Anderlecht. Wasilewski who plays there is in talks with Rangers, so Golański will be his replacement there.

 

[theo]

Yeah but Golanski himself stated that he wouldn't say no to a transfer at a big european club like Steaua. At least that's what's in the press here in Romania. Guess we'll have to wait and see, is he quality though?

 

[Tosiek]

Yeah, I told you about him in Polish Ekstraklasa thread.

 

[$teauA]

Noooo I really don't want Para to leave

What is this Golanski guy all about?

 

[$teauA]

http://gsp.ro/Sorin-Ghionea-2-luni-pe-tusa.html?a=3147/19612

Ghionea side-lined for another two months . The season hasn't even started and we're already screwed by injuries. Radoi and Goian will have to pair up in the center of defense again with Emeghara on the left and Marin on the right?

 

[Emte]

very wierd was today's draw on uefa.com
At first Zaglebie should play against Slavia Praha... but then thay changed results and... Zaglebie will play against Steaua

 

[$teauA]

F*ck me, we get the champions of Poland

I wouldn't call this an easy draw at all.

 

[theo]

I'm confident we'll qualify further, even though it's not going to be easy.
Can't wait for the season to start, and I want some more transfers.

 

[Tosiek]

F*ck me, we get the champions of Poland

I wouldn't call this an easy draw at all.

I hope you won't get through the next round. Give others teams a chance to play in CL

Nawww

What can you tell me about this Z club?

 

[Tosiek]

Zagłebie won the league title first time since season 1990/91. They play nice for the eye, have a few stars which play regularly in NT. Hopefully will sign some fresh blood and start preparing for the big battle.

 

[theo]

Could you possibly note out their best players? With pics and some info maybe?

 

[Tosiek]

The brain - Maciej Iwański

Winger - Wojciech Łobodziński

Guy responsible for scoring goals - Michał Chałbiński

You should be afraid of this trio the most, but there's also some young guns. Surely, the club staff will bring some good players, when they'll arrive I will tell you about them.
