Are you lot seriously suggesting that we will all need to sing a Yoni song? Ye gods alive, I dread to think what the one track minds will think up !!!0

Very weird all these Belgians signing up to tell us their opinions of players who played for their clubs years ago with the only link being a couple of rumours on Twitter....
Genuine question (as I can't remember)... before Roland came along did this happen when we signed other foreign players...? Just seems a little unusual to me.

You mean you don't remember the flood of Uruguayan members when we signed Omar Pouso?LeaburnForEngland said:Very weird all these Belgians signing up to tell us their opinions of players who played for their clubs years ago with the only link being a couple of rumours on Twitter....

For god's sake, can we stop this bollocks now? There's about four people on here who are relentlessly pro-network, which is fine, and there's a few people who are relentlessly anti-network, which is also fine. Think what you want. What's exhausting is all the sniping between the camps despite the fact a ball hasn't been kicked yet. Yann made a silly comment, claiming a player was good based on some YouTube footage, which is amusing because is the stick used to beat Alan Pardew over the head with whenever his name comes up. Somehow that's mutated into yet more mud-slinging between the for and against camps, and 5 pages later the bloke still hasn't signed. He might be crap. Reza came with the blessings of half of Iran and a lifetime supply of tiny pink hearts but he still only scored one goal. Similarly AA was the least heralded signing but turned out to be the best. This guy might be brilliant. However we don't know until he a) signs and b) plays so can we please, please stop the 'you all hate the owner' or 'you all have your heads in the sand, the club will just be a seat and six blades of grass when RD's done with it' nonsense. At least until we're top or bottom of the league next season.scabbyhorse said:Thanks Chimme much appreciated that info but the moaning mrytles on here will still not be happy.
We boast a FA cup win in 1947 so we are much to big a club to have someone like Yoni Buyens playing for us ;-)18 -

We haven't signed Yoni Buyens though have we? I should have said "linked with" rather than signed in my original post. I mean like last summer when we had that big French unit on trial up front (forget the name). Did we have fans from his previous clubs coming on and saying how good he was and how well he'd fit in at the club?DeeBee said:

It's like whatever SL player we're linked with someone who supports a team they used to play for (but never Standard Liege as that would be too obvious) suddenly pops up to do a sales job on here.
I just wonder if all this criticism of Amaury Gerard, our network media supremo, doing nothing has been wide of the mark... if you get what I mean...10 -

Things can Yoni get better2 -
Maybe because we are owned by the same man who owns Standard and who also happens to be belgian??? just a thought like.

Yoni, to Zola, across to Reza......OsamaBenHamer said:Hope this is true, seems to be a decent player. Would be the only naturally creative midfielder we have too.
Damn you Duchatelet for signing players with short names. Is he insinuating we are thick and can't pronounce long names?

That's mainly because we have discovered this thing called "the internet" in Belgium recently. We are all descendants of Hercule Poirot, you know...
On a serious note: Yoni Buyens is NOT, I repeat NOT a very creative midfielder. He's someone who likes to tackle, capture the ball, get into the box. He is not Fabregas or Özil who will solve all of your problems.0 -
Looking from a window above
It's like a story of love
Can you hear me?
Came back only yesterday
I'm moving farther away
Want you near me
All I needed was the love you gave
All I needed for another day
And all I ever knew
Yoni, you

posted this this morning in the rumours thread - my opinion - and yes i have seen Yoni Buyes playing from the stands at least 40 times and probably 100 times if televised games count as well.
"Found 2 belgian websites having this news as well, though not very reliable ones. but could be Buyens be would move to charlton, i think he definately has the level of playing in the championship. Way better then the players you got in januari, and used to be always a regular at all his clubs, except this season, where he still was used quite alot by standard coach Luzon but wasn't a certain starter anymore as he has been before. Since Luzon is staying he might want to move to another club.
I'm not going to comment on the person Yoni buyens except this: he is a youth product of my club Lierse SK, he played there from when he was 11 till he was 20, last two seasons as a regular in the first team, he refused to sign a contract extension to sign with KV Mechelen. Would be like a CAFC youth product signing for free at Millwall. So he is not really "loved" anymore at the club i support
As a player Buyens is a typical central midfielder, very good defensively, excellent workrate, physical team player, good stamina, fighting spirit and tackle, goes forward from time to time with a decent shot at goal as well. He lacks some creativity though, he's not supergood in technical skills and he could do better taking initiave sometimes. He is basicly the kind of central midfielder that does the dirty jobs for the more creative players around him. "
some stats
born 1988 (age 26)
pos: defensive CM
3 seasons Lierse SK (+7 youth) 2006/09
2 seasons KV mechelen 2009/11
3 seasons Standard de Liège 2011/14
299 appearances in first team, 21 goals, 10 assists, 52 bookings, 2 sending offs
17 appearances in european cups
used to be a belgian youth international under 21

Anyone else noticed how Chimme's English is perfect and phraseology is very ...ummm, English. Not suggesting anything, of course.Chimme said:

In fairness, I used to work in Belgium - you could have banter about the footie and just not realise that it was a second language to the people you were having a laugh with. Company I worked for, English was the only language used during the working day (friggin good job !!) - and down the pub after. Love their football and very knowledgeable on the English game.1

Love the thought of Charlton fans doing the Flying Pickets A Cappella version. North singing, West n East doing the backing. Cool.Callumcafc said:Looking from a window above

If he is better than AA, I'll take that! If AA was fit, I think he would be a top championship player.0

I think people should go easy on Yann, his only 'crime' is being pro Charlton. Would anybody like to swap him for Mr Prior with his sarcastic and antagonistic comments?1
