Coxy27 Posted June 27, 2013 Report Share Posted June 27, 2013 Ajax were sensational that day, blew us away completely. Albert Luque, and Urby Emmanuelson (many people thought he was Evander Sno! Ha) were superb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ha) were superb. They all played well in fairness for Ajax. None on the same level as Samuel Eto when Mallorca were down here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worthingexile Posted June 27, 2013 Report Share Posted June 27, 2013 Eto' for Real Mallorca was better My abiding memory of that game was watching Christian Roberts look like Ronaldo on the wing, full of tricks and pace. He could have been a player if not for his issues! Also if memory serves Eto' scored a Beckhamesque free kick which was blinding to see! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same Russian dump they don't even play at because of the violence and how awful the city is, I think they fly out 500 or so miles from Moscow on home games. When Liverpool had to play them they didn't even play in Anzhi, they played in Moscow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mcbcfc Posted June 27, 2013 Report Share Posted June 27, 2013 Eto' for Real Mallorca was better If my memory serves me correctly he scored twice that night as did Lee Peacock.... Who would of thought that one would play for the greatest club in the world and the other only played for Barca and Inter!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could have been a player if not for his issues! Also if memory serves Eto' scored a Beckhamesque free kick which was blinding to see! I was there, I am 99 per cent sure it was the little midfielder campano who got the free kick. Etoo was rediculous, though Danny Coles marking him is a slight mismatch. Also saw the Ajax game, Suarez scored early, running on to a through ball, and literally passing the ball into the top corner. I had never heard of him before but that finish certainly caught my attention! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Portland Bill Posted June 27, 2013 Report Share Posted June 27, 2013 The Ajax game was memorable for me in respect that there wasn't a tackle in the game until Paul Hartley came on in the 75th minute. It was a typical "nice" pre season game,where every player had about 5 minutes to make a pass etc. This is the reason why I don't bother with pre season games anymore,they are all to nice!

Night84 Posted June 27, 2013 Report Share Posted June 27, 2013 Never realised that Saurez was playing, blimey! The standing ovation that Sno got when he was subbed off still makes me very proud our club that day. Great performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puckle_red Posted June 28, 2013 Report Share Posted June 28, 2013 It was Sno that ran the show because he got a standing ovation which he spoke about when he signed for us as being a proud moment. I remember Suarez because of his movement more than anything else, he was always on the shoulder and his movement to receive the ball was the best I've seen. I'm pretty sure we had a Russian trailist called Alexei Eremenko who played the last half an hour or so, he looked handy on the ball but a bit heavy. Also remember that Paul Hartley tackle followed by him trying to drag the player off the floor and shouting in his face, brilliant! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Russian league is full of mercenaries now who go for the money. Sad as most could and would still be at the top level elsewhere though not on as much cash Eto Hulk Pato ( until recently) Diarra McGeady Witsel To name a few.

I agree with you to an extent, but I think it's only a matter of time now before we see a Russian team go far in the Champions League. Too many strong teams over there.
