Sweden plays with a 4-4-2 system, and with the diamond midfield (one defensive and one attacking central medfielder). Five Swedish players weren't in the troup this time: Zlatan, Ljungberg, Isaksson, Källström and Wilhelmsson. South Korea was reportedly much better, but Sweden scored on their chance...

Markus Rosenberg played the second half in Sweden's friendly against South Korea today. The game ended in a 2-2 draw after Elmander's first half goal and Rosenberg's in the second half. Markus' goal came on a cross from Djurgården's left winger Tobias Hysén (who I still claim would be an excellent p...

Blind should be given to the end of the season. If sacked now who is available to take over?? I think Blind shouldn't even get a date, before when he has to succeed. A new coach is not the solution. That would only make it worse, in the long run. Blind seems to be a guy most of the fans like. Let h...

if he can't score he cant play at 10 ; if he can't cross he can't be effective as a winger. Have anyone ever seen Ljungberg shoot (ok, I've seen a good shot once, but no more) or cross decently? Still he can play as both central midfielder and winger. And attacker. Other qualities are important as ...

Sorry Rubin but weve no chance of winning the title this year,the only good thing we can get out of this season is to get our house in order for next season.Players who arent going to be around after the summer should be sold,if possible,during the transfer window & at the very least we must find a...

Just got back from a ten day trip to Marseille, damn I'd like to bring their weather back with me. Obviously a lot has happened within these ten days, as there are about one million new posts for me to read. Doesn't seem like Ajax is doing any better than they did when I left though. I also got the ...

Seriously? You'd rather have Arveladze than one of the best forwards in the world?

Djurgårdens IF are Champions of Sweden! :cheer: :applaus: :pinkelephant:

The Championship was secured after a 0-0 game tonight, while IFK Göteborg lost to Hammarby (thanks for that one Per! :worshippy: ) 3-2.

I think i have just invented a new word... so here it goes, have we gotten to the sikorasoetearssonck point with this guy ????? Sad but i think were getting close :sad: Remember: first year abroad. Young lad. Not much experience. On his way into the national team, but not even close to the starting...

They actually have to win though. I know Greece beat the odds but can you really see it happening in 2 consecutive big tournaments? There's a big difference between Sweden and Greece. Greece won the tournament with their excellent defence, something that used to be Sweden's best quality as well. Bu...

I'm taking this back, in case you were thinking about it. I'm sure you weren't, but anyway ;)
A torrent link has been fixed. Anyone watched the movie?

ZlatanMovie.tk presents the sixth in the ZlatanMovie series: Zlatan - From good to God! It's about 15 minutes long and 120MB, so I hope you guys have a decent connection, if you feel like watching it. (of course you wanna watch it, it's very nice and in good quality ;) ) Visit http://www.zlatanmovie...

He has reached his full potential as a player so what you see is what you get. Nah, I don't believe Wilhelmsson has reached full potential yet. He's not an old player, not that expreienced either. Sure, he's been playing on high level for a while, but he hasn't been ordinary in the Swedish NT that ...

He has all the qualitites needed to be a very good RW, except for shooting and finishing (to be honest, one rarely see him trying actually). I've seen him score some goals from long shots in Belgium. He ain't that bad. But he rarely come in a shooting position in the Swedish NT, but then again, I'v...

I've been watching all the episodes of 'Lost' the last few days, and man that show is great! I've never been this fascinated with a TV-show before. So many details, never boring for a second. Can't wait to see the next episode.

Anyone else following the gang on the island?

As for England I believe they will actually qualify for the finals later tonight if Marco's Orange Boys beat Czech Rep. (We would be the best runnersup at least if this happens and would not need to beat Poland) Think The Orange will get a draw though. The same goes for Sweden. If Holland win tonig...

probably have the strongest squad in the world Far from that if you ask me. Juventus, Barcelona, Milan, these are the top teams in the world right now. 2 world class keepers, 8 defenders of highest quality, 8 very good midfielders and 3 top class forwards. And Veron on loan. I don't think any other...

I dont see why people consider Chelsea a "big" club after few good seasons. Ofcourse theyre top now, and have a lot of money, but clubs like Man Utd., Arsenal, R. Madrid and Bayern are much bigger than Chelsea They are winning all the games, probably have the strongest squad in the world, and is th...

I thought it was a very poetic one. What is it that you don't understand? Good players in Oranje - can only be from Ajax. Heitinga is good, followed by a scenario described with much passion. There you have it. And oh, he wants Heitinga in the WC-team. Thanks for the translation. I guess all the do...

Ehm, am I the only one not to understand shit of the post above?

Whose complaining? I took this as complaints: vdv was not good enough for Ajax anymore :eusa_liar: :pukey: :eusa_liar: miss vdv =( Raffie scores tonight for HSV v's VFB Stuttgart. Last season Zlatan couldn't stop scoring for Juventus and now Raffie likewise at HSV. Makes you want to :pukey: He's ju...

So what are we complaining about really? Van der Vaart needed to get away from Holland and Ajax to get back to his good old form. Hamburg are going great with VDV. Ajax can now let Sneijder have more responsibility, which has resulted in him being excellent, which leads to a better Ajax. Everybody s...

And, imo, he is not as good a player as Pele was. Or Rosales. :eusa_liar: To be fair, I really haven't seen enough of Pele to judge. I wish I would have been alive back then, so I could compare the two (don't wish I'd be that old though). But from what I've seen of Maradona, I can't imagine that an...

I thought Ajax fans liked tiny players with great technique. Hope Rosales doesn't mind us off-topic writing in his thread; we are after all talking about the greatest player there ever was. :yes:

I think you've got this alll wrong aveslacker. ;)
