Hot

@FCSB , this is not the english version of Steaua forums so stop posting all these details about the team when nobody is really that interested. The series is over and the Well fans are much more interested in their own players than in ours , believe me . I can't believe how much bragging I've seen here from the romanian fans ..if one Well fan would come to our forums and post a bunch about his team and how great , and how good they really are compared to your team how would you feel ? especially if they beat you out in a series Anyway , last night game was a great improvement from what I saw last week from Well . This team is young and Coke,Slane,Murphy have a great future ahead. You definitely deserved at least a draw , but at least your confidence level is high enough to start on a tear in the SPL . Good luck guys,it was fun to hang around with you . I will definitely be back whenever I have the time and cheer on your hopefully future great results. Cheers

<-------------- He looks like the real deal .

Only 17? oh man he will be a big time player, mark my words. He's got the instincts and he's very agile . I will keep an eye on him for sure I hope we will have a great game next week, too bad I can't make it to Scotland . I really wanted to .

First of all ,sorry for the Steaua fans who were enjoying the goals on your forum . Classless! Got back from the game , I was really impressed by your GK and the blonde dude on the left side. He's got some moves and he tricked our RB(albeit a very good one) several times. I don't know his age, but he looked like a kid . A very good footballer though. Keep your squad together and have faith in them. You are at a beginning of a journey, and the beginnings are always tough. Cheers

Yeah that's why I said he's a clown . Don't pay attention to him guys . It's not him in that picture though , that's the president.

No , me and my romanian fellow were using euro as an example just for you to figure out the prices . You will have to use "Lei" . 4 lei = 1 euro

65 euro is a lot , I don't believe it . I know the company , my uncle worked there and I really don't think it will cost that much. If you want a cab from the airport to downtown - only 20 euros or even less. I know this because I actually went to the airport two weeks ago and had to pick a cab because it was late.

Golanski for Poland Toja for Columbia Tatarusanu has been the U 21 national team GK , he's not eligible anymore Goian and Ghionea are regularly on the Romanian National Team

You're welcome . I enjoy spending time on this board, a lot of nice lads and good talks going on . And of course if you can get a good read on the opponent , it's even better.

Here's a compilation with all his goals in his first year with us : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DN97Zm0zckM Nothing outstading, just some good headers and he likes to pick up the garbage and score from inside the box.

I wouldn't put too much stock into this. The fans and the media always felt that Steaua has the best core of players on paper and they were clear cut favourites every year for the championship. Unfortunately we were run in the last 2 years by incompetent coaches and a lot of drama from the owner(drama queen,prima donna etc) has rubbed off in a negative way on the players. That's why they underachieved badly . Things have changed , our coach is a former Lazio captain , he brought a good mentality to the club and most important he brought stability and the clown doesn't have much time on his hands to manage the club(he's involved in politics nowadays) so the pressure isn't how it used to be .

Just take a cab, you will spend a few extra bucks but you will get in time and your schedule won't be affected. Believe me , there isn't one single feeling worse than taking an overcrowded bus in the middle of the day when the sun is burning like hell. About the food and beer , you will find it very cheap. The beer is 1 to 2 euros the most expensive one and the food if you go by fast-foods with 5 euros you will eat a lot of kentucky fried chicken and mcnugetts Anyway , between Piata Romana and Universitatii there are a lot of fast-foods and places where you can eat and drink . Piata Unirii is near the corner too , so if you have the time check that place too. From there you can see "Casa Poporului" probably the most visited place in Bucharest.

Well the general consensus is that Motherwell will be a tougher opponent to get by and the score from last night has been given as example. Even our owner who is a clown and likes to give very optimistic reviews on the future games said that it's getting serious from now on .

Goian is still here . As a matter of fact , both our CB's and the LB(even though he is way past his prime) are from the same team that went to the Uefa semifinal . And I think we improved in goal and on the RB. The problem is the midfield is no where near the level it was then and we miss our best striker from the last 10 years I could say(Dica the guy who scored 4 times in 6 games in the Champions League groups against top level competition). Radoi is now playing in Arabia for a lot of cash

Thanks mate. Our best player or at least the guy who is on a hot streak right now seems to be Bogdan Stancu , the forward who had a goal and an assist in the first leg against Ujpest and another assist in the second game. He's got a good nose for the net and he can dangle like the best of them. Only 22 years old , he had a good ratio last season scoring 12 goals in 30 games as a 21 year old so that's pretty good. (It is rumoured that Inter Milano is keeping an eye on him )I like our goalkeeper , he's tall and can make huge saves. Only 23 years old and I think he could be one of the best prospects from Eastern Europe, definitely he's the future starter of the romanian national team . This guys stood out the most in the first two games , we have a good pair on defence ,both on the national team , Golanski as a right back is a member of Poland national team and Toja our midfielder and most creative player is a member of Columbia's national team. About our weaknesses , certainly our left back is too old , short and he's not good at defending . Can cross the field but he hasn't much left in the tank. We don't have a strong defensive midfielder , our best player is on the injury list now and we replaced him with a 19 years old kid who has potential but also has a lot of work to do and isn't polished enough for that position. Against counter-attack we aren't very good , our entire defence line isn't mobile enough nor has the speed to keep it up against forwards with good speed. We did very well against british teams because they play with long balls straight on their strikers and our defenders are like 194 cm (6 feet 4 ). And the goalkeeper is in the same range as well We like to play a possesion game but we also can let the other team dominate , keep the pressure on us and strike on the counter-attack. Like I said , you guys had a good chance against us because we are re-building right now and with a new coach and young players it's tough to get at the best possible level in one month . Now can you tell me about your team?
