This is Rostov's first match in the Champions League this season!

Isn't it everyone's first match in the CL this year?

Also looking forward to thursday. Wondering how the new signings will play. Hopefully better than in the friendly pre-season game against Panathinakois because that was poo poo.

Believe it or not there's been two qualifier rounds in the CL already. Celtic almost lost one of them!

Oh, I had no idea. That's an early start of the season!

Aw, Raman is going to Standard. This makes me sad because I really like the little rascal. Supposedly he's being sold for 7-800k. Stupid, because in January Standard wanted to pay 1,5 million and we said no.

Topics to discuss:
- Who will be the first trainer death?
- Are Standard seriously considering getting Wilmots to replace Ferrera should he go?
- How did your club do this week?

It'll probably be Ferrera. He has been under fire for months now and the football hasn't improved much. I will die of laughter if he's replaced by Wilmots though.

And my club got 1 point against the mighty Kortrijk. They played good at times, but the goal they conceded was pretty dumb. We need some extra defenders asap. And again, we had difficulties going forward and scoring. So many side- and backpasses. It's like no-one wants to take risks. We did score from a corner, that's positive. Let's hope it's not the only goal we score on setpieces this season!

On my phone screen that smiley looked a lot more confused.
Anyway, it's a weird signing. Especially since they just announced: "There were more than 40 serious applications!" and then they picked Martinez?
I also got a newsflash that Mancini was the new coach, but it got quickly corrected. Too bad.

Ferrera is going home first, no doubt about it. Apparently there was already a new coach in the stands this weekend, and his agent is a close friend of Van Buyten. So it's probably a matter of days.

Nice, real nice, we got through the silly season without losing the core of the title team.

Yeah, they've been performing great so far :downs:

EDIT: We bought like 18 new midfielders and some new defenders and I wonder who will play and how great our transfers will turn out this season. My prediction: not that great.

:siren::siren:FIRST TRAINER DEATH IS HERE:siren::siren:

Surprise surprise, it's Yannick Ferrera. Standard is such a joke of a club. So much things going on behind the scenes.

EDIT: Jankovic (coach of Mechelen (not anymore :downsgun:) ) will replace him.

It's pretty obvious that Waasland-Beveren only fired Henkinet because they have an abundance of keepers at the moment. I'm sure that if Köteles didn't join them, Henkinet would only be suspended and ordered to pay a fine by the club or w/e.
But I'm curious what will happen to Deschacht. His defense is pretty stupid (why wouldn't his brother open his own betting account??) and betting on a loss for Anderlecht... Yeah, that might be the end of his career. Even though I think there's no-one in the world that bet on an Anderlecht win against PSG :)
















Also: lol Brugge

This. But also lol at the general level of our competition so far. It's like nobody really cares and the level of play seems much lower than last year. Like Gent, most players forgot how to play football after the summer break because reasons??

Welp, goals galore in the EPL for the Belgian teams yesterday. Some probably enjoyed it more than others though :)
And drat, Rinne, Gent's keeper, is really costing us points. Don't know what's up with him but he seems to be unable to catch a ball.
