UEFA EUROPA LEAGUE - 2016/17 SEASON MATCH PRESS KITS Şükrü Saracoğlu - Istanbul Thursday 29 September 2016 21.05CET (22.05 local time) Fenerbahçe SK Group A - Matchday 2 Feyenoord Last updated 28/09/2016 03:34CET Match background 2 Legend 4 1 Fenerbahçe SK - Feyenoord Thursday 29 September 2016 - 21.05CET (22.05 local time) Match press kit Şükrü Saracoğlu, Istanbul Match background A heavy Dutch presence in the Fenerbahçe ranks will ensure plenty of intrigue as Dick Advocaat's team welcome Feyenoord in UEFA Europa League Group A. Previous meetings • In the clubs' only previous encounters, Bert van Marwijk's Feyenoord – then UEFA Cup holders – made light work of Werner Lorant's Fenerbahçe in the 2002/03 UEFA Champions League third qualifying round. Shinji Ono scored the lone goal of the first leg, and was on target again in Istanbul along with Thomas Buffel as his side completed a 3-0 aggregate success. • The line-ups for that latter meeting on 27 August 2002 were: Fenerbahçe: Rüştü Reçber, Ogün Temizkanoğlu, Mustafa Doğan, Mirković (Oktay Derelioğlu 52), Akın Serhat, Revivo, Abdullah Ercan, Washington (Rapaić 62), Fatih Akyel, Ariel Ortega, Stević. Feyenoord: Zoetebier, Gyanm, Rzaşa, Bosvelt, Kalou, Van Wonderen, Van Hooijdonk, Lurling (Buffel 77), Ono, Paauwe, Emerton. • Robin van Persie – then of Feyenoord, now at Fenerbahçe – was an unused substitute in this game, making the bench for the first time in a UEFA Champions League fixture. • Fenerbahçe's record in 18 matches against Dutch teams is W5 D4 L9 (W4 D1 L4 at home), but they are unbeaten in the most recent three – UEFA Europa League group stage assignments against Ajax and Twente, in which they did not concede. • Feyenoord's only other meetings with Turkish sides produced two defeats by Beşiktaş in the 2014/15 UEFA Champions League third qualifying round. Form guide • Fenerbahçe are unbeaten in six European home games (W5 D1) since a 3-1 loss at home to Molde in the opening fixture of last season's UEFA Europa League group stage. • Semi-finalists in 2012/13, Fenerbahçe have successfully negotiated all four of their preceding UEFA Cup and UEFA Europa League group stage campaigns. • Feyenoord last featured in this competition in 2014/15, making the round of 32, where a 2-1 home reverse to Roma ended their challenge. • Feyenoord have won the UEFA Cup twice, in 1973/74 and 2001/02. Links and trivia • The journey from Rotterdam to Istanbul is around 2,200km. • Midfielder Dirk Kuyt, now 36, spent three years with Fenerbahçe before rejoining Feyenoord 12 months ago. • Another Dutch Fenerbahçe player, Jeremain Lens, can make his 50th UEFA Cup/UEFA Europa League appearance in this match. • Former team-mates: Gregory van der Wiel (Fenerbahçe) & Kenneth Vermeer (Feyenoord) – Ajax, 2007–12 Gregory van der Wiel (Fenerbahçe) & Jan-Arie van Heijden (Feyenoord) – Ajax 2007–11 Jeremain Lens (Fenerbahçe) & Marko Veijnović (Feyenoord) – AZ, 2007–09 • Feyenoord's Bilal Başaçıkoğlu plays for Turkey at Under-21 level, the Dutch-born 21-year-old having elected to represent his father's home country at international level. The coaches • Dick Advocaat is in his first term with Fenerbahçe. The one-time Oranje coach has amassed domestic league titles in the Netherlands (with PSV), Scotland (Rangers) and Russia (Zenit), having also led Zenit to glory in the 2007/08 UEFA Cup. • The Feyenoord game is taking place two days after Advocaat's 69th birthday. • Advocaat played for Feyenoord's neighbours Sparta Rotterdam from 1980–82. • Giovanni van Bronckhorst steered Feyenoord to Dutch Cup glory last season, his first in charge of his old club. As a player, the former Netherlands captain landed league championships with Rangers, Arsenal and Barcelona, scooping the 2005/06 UEFA Champions League with the Catalans. • Advocaat was Van Bronckhorst's coach at Rangers from 1998–2001, during which time the club won two Scottish doubles, and was also his boss with the Netherlands from 2002–04. 2 Fenerbahçe SK - Feyenoord Thursday 29 September 2016 - 21.05CET (22.05 local time) Match press kit Şükrü Saracoğlu, Istanbul 3 Fenerbahçe SK - Feyenoord Thursday 29 September 2016 - 21.05CET (22.05 local time) Match press kit Şükrü Saracoğlu, Istanbul Legend Competitions Club competitions National team competitions UCL: UEFA Champions League EURO: UEFA European Football Championship ECCC: European Champion Clubs' Cup WC: FIFA World Cup UEL: UEFA Europa League CONFCUP: FIFA Confederations Cup UCUP: UEFA Cup FRIE: Friendly internationals UCWC: UEFA Cup Winners' Cup U21FRIE: Under-21 friendly internationals SCUP: UEFA Super Cup U21: UEFA European Under-21 Championship UIC: UEFA Intertoto Cup U17: UEFA Under-17 Championship ICF: Inter-Cities Fairs Cup U16: UEFA European Under-16 Championship U19: UEFA Under-19 Championship U18: UEFA European Under-18 Championship WWC: FIFA Women's World Cup WEURO: UEFA European Women's Championship Competition stages Other abbreviations F: Final GS: Group stage (aet): After extra time pens: Penalties GS1: First group stage GS2: Second group stage No.: Number og: Own goal 3QR: Third qualifying round R1: First round ag: Match decided on away P: Penalty R2: Second round R3: Third round goals agg: Aggregate R4: Fourth round PR: Preliminary round Pld: Matches played AP: Appearances SF: Semi-finals QF: Quarter-finals Pos.: Position Comp.: Competition R16: round of 16 QR: Qualifying round Pts: Points D: Drawn R32: Round of 32 1QR: First qualifying round R: Sent off (straight red card) DoB: Date of birth 1st: first leg 2QR: Second qualifying Res.: Result ET: Extra Time round sg: Match decided by silver GA: Goals against 2nd: second leg FT: Final tournament goal t: Match decided by toss of a PO: Play-off ELITE: Elite round coin Rep: Replay 3rdPO: Third-place play-off GF: Goals for W: Won PO - FT: Play-off for Final GS-FT: Group stage – final gg: Match decided by golden Y: Booked Tournament tournament goal L: Lost Y/R: Sent off (two yellow Nat.: Nationality cards) N/A: Not applicable f: Match forfeited Statistics -: Denotes player substituted +: Denotes player introduced *: Denotes player sent off +/-: Denotes player introduced and substituted Squad list D: Disciplinary *: Misses next match if booked S: Suspended QUAL: All UEFA qualifiers UEL: Current season total UEFA Europa League appearances from the group stage onwards prior to the current matchday UEL: Total appearances in the UEFA Europa League, group stage to final only UEFA: All-time total appearances in UEFA club competition including qualifying Disclaimer: Although UEFA has taken all reasonable care that the information contained within this document is accurate at the time of publication, no representation or guarantee (including liability towards third parties), expressed or implied, is made as to its accuracy, reliability or completeness.

    BMO Management Strategies of Football Clubs in the Dutch Eredivisie

    BSc-Thesis – BMO Management strategies of football clubs in the Dutch Eredivisie Name Student: Mylan Pouwels Registration Number: 991110669120 University: Wageningen University & Research (WUR) Study: BBC (Business) Thesis Mentor: Jos Bijman Date: 1-23-2020 Chair Group: BMO Course Code: YSS-81812 Foreword From an early age I already like football. I like it to play football by myself, to watch it on television, but also to read articles about football. The opportunity to combine my love for football with a scientific research for my Bachelor Thesis, could not be better for me. During an orientating conversation about the topic for my Bachelor Thesis with my thesis mentor Jos Bijman, I mentioned that I was always interested in the management strategies of organizations. What kind of choices an organization makes, what kind of resources an organization uses, what an organization wants to achieve and its performances. Following closely this process in large organizations is something I like to do in my leisure time. My thesis mentor Jos Bijman asked for my hobbies and he mentioned that there was a possibility to combine my interests in the management strategies of organizations with my main hobby football. In this way the topic Management strategies of football clubs in the Dutch Eredivisie was created. The Bachelor Thesis Management strategies of football clubs in the Dutch Eredivisie is executed in a qualitative research, using a literature study. This Thesis is written in the context of my graduation of the study Business-and Consumer Studies (specialization Business) at the Wageningen University and Research. From October 28 2019 until January 23 I have been working on the research and writing of my Thesis.

  • Number #9 in the TDF Top 50

    Number #9 in the TDF Top 50

    From being a small boy, I have always been a huge fan of both football and professional wrestling and at around the age of 10-years-old, I came across a monthly magazine brought to newsagents from the makers of the world famous Sports Illustrated all about pro wrestling. It was simply named Pro Wrestling Illustrated. It was a publication I regularly read as well as Shoot and Match weekly magazines to feed my football addiction. In 1991, PWI began this new craze that instantly grabbed my attention more than no other magazine had before. They revealed the 'PWI 500'. The 'PWI 500' section in the magazine listed (in rank order) the top 500 professional wrestlers in the world that year. Counting down from 500, this revealed to me many, many talents that I have not discovered as of yet. This was released every year, and still to this day is the best selling edition of the magazine each year. I studied and read and read over and over again that edition in 1991 and I came up with an idea. What if Match or Shoot revealed the top 500 footballers in the world? Thinking back to 1991, I used to love to tune into the 'BBC Radio 1 Top 40' show every Sunday afternoon too... maybe I'm a tad obsessed with countdowns. Anyways, reflecting on the idea, I thought about it each year the 'PWI 500' was released. As years went on, I felt that this would have grown into a hugely successful plan, gaining great recognition with people in the game, possibly gained its own award ceremony on TV with the emergence and exposure SKY Television in the United Kingdom was just beginning to give to the game back then.
