Ibrahim Afellay

[Marroquí20]

He played a good second half .. nice action shot with left but unfortunately wrong!
And he passed four men went over...but they tackled him!!
I think he start sunday vs Deportivo!! And hope he get a goal!!

 

[Flavia]

He should shoot more from outside of the box, he has a nice shot.

+1.

 

[Richard.H]

He should shoot more from outside of the box, he has a nice shot.

Definitely agree with this!

 

[gingerless]

made a few good runs, but his ideas are with the dutch national team... our players don't really pick it up or understand him that well, he needs more time and all that cliche stuff

True dat

 

[gingerless]

i thought the first part of that sentence made that clear, but whatever

 

[Cal-FCB]

He's so much more effective on the right, he's awful on the left, just cuts back every time. Down the right he can stretch his legs and give himself time to get his head up.

Yeah he's too predictable on the left...

Afellay: "Thank you all. Next time I'll speak better Spanish, Visca el Barca, Visca Catalunya"

he should just speak some rifi then eh wela darija

 

[Peerd]

Can't he just study 2 or 3 sentences? Say something like: "I have been welcomed with open arms by this amazing group, we are like a family. I am working hard on my Spanish. Don't worry, we will bring you the Champions League title."

Is that so hard? lol

 

[tikitaka]

I mean Mark Van Bommel took a very intensive Spanish course when he came over from PSV. He could speak very good Spanish within 2-3 weeks. Something for Afellay? In the summer maybe?
