So two things;

1. Don’t know who he is but checked his wiki page and apparently he plays for Aston vile

2. Also according to the internet, he has a teammate named Thomas Foket

 

please please please sign Foket, that would never get boring

I don't think Foket is the level of player Aston Villa need, need to aim for bette quality. Would be fun to scream his name, yeah.

Is Nakamba a good option? 

Nakamba was a real class player in his first season in Bruges. One of the main men to lead them to the title. He got injured towards the end and that kept on going until the beginning of last season. He got his chance but never really was able to perform at that same high level again, though I still think he is class. His professionalism now seems to be at a low level. Our new manager wants him in the squad, but he doesn't even want to come to Bruges to talk with the coach.

If he reaches the level of his first season, absolute class player.

Aston Villa and Club Brugge were close to an agreement for £11m over midfielder Marvelous Nakamba last month, but Villa insisted that Club would take one of their players on loan according to @FooTTomaz / @hlnsport. An offer that got a clear ‘no’ from Brugge. #avfc @hlnsport

Finally a return for giving us Balaban

This boy has lots of potential. Not a big scorer in Bruges, but very hard worker, keeping the defence busy and creating goal scoring opportunities for others. In the beginning lots of trouble with his temper but has improved hugely. Top deal in my opinion.

There are already questions about his fitness

Hope he fails in Brussels.

Wonder what number he'll get? Can we take the number 10 off N'Zogbia and give it to him?

Gotta be kidding, no? :-)

Cya guys!

Well, Donk has really developed in Bruges. But latest 5 games everyone is playing a bit less good unfortunately. But it's also true that Donk makes a mistake each game.

Haha, crazy fella Stijnen :-)

Such a shame, won points for us.

Christ, I might have to switch my Belgian allegiances.

Hey come on, I'm not changing my English ones :-)

We had to gather at the Arcadian. It was my first visit to Birimingham, is Villa Park far away from there? Have absoluteley no idea.

Their fans are talking about Club Brugge being their new sister club from over the sea And arranging a pre-season friendly each year. Thanks but no thanks...

A bit too much 'shit on the Villa' in their chants, bit pathetic.

The Birmingham trip was great, unfortunately the result wasn't. Thanks to ourselves. Our 0-2 was offside, but from where I was standing, the penalty was light. Brugge, yet again, didn't play their best, such as shame.

Hope to return to Birmingham in December, but then for real football: Aston Villa - Liverpool, with the Belgian Villains.

Further on, Steve McClaren is rumoured to become new Club Brugge coach, what do you think about him?

Club Brugge just sacked their coach Adrie Koster. Not feeling too confident about the Birmingham trip on Thursday

Leading 4-2 against Genk yesterday after 70 minutes, they yet again manage to loose, 4-5.

Last time I checked litter is trash.

Those eejits really trashed the place:

I thought Bruges were decent, didn;t they beat Braga away in their last game? WTF are they doing losing to that shower?!

Goddamn, Bruges played their worst game I've seen this season, our first defeat this season too, against this shite team. Incredible. We got overpowered by the physical strength too, and the coach made some tactical mistakes. Not a good game, could have done a great thing by winning.

One positive point for the Brummies: they respected our 23rd minute applause for our deceased striker (in 2008) Sterchele.

For the rest, screw 'em.

LiNkErT, how's Coosemans been getting on as #1?

Well... He did great last year. This year he's not that sure. But promising player, that's for sure.

About the game... Simply disgraceful... I was ashamed when it was 1-1 in the final seconds.. And then they score 1-2. Such a shame. Sorry Villains, but Bruges was really bad tonight

Off to Bruges now. Brummies taking over the market place in Bruges. Bunch of...

Anything but a win would be a disappointment for us.

Birmingham, here we come

Confirmation about my tickets for the game. Birmingham, here I come!

Finally confirmation we're getting more tickets in Birmingham. Monday at 10 in the morning subscriptions re-open, glad I took off from work then :-)
