JAN SCHLAUDRAFF
Born 07/18/83 Club "Alemannia" Germany team
Amplitude drawn or flank forward
Prototype early Oliver Neuville, Robin van Persie.
What Schlaudraff can do is a born dribbler. At speed, he is able to beat several opponents at once. And not for the sake of defeating as such: Schlaudraff always clearly understands the ultimate goal of the passage. It is worth noting ingenuity: “parachutes” for the collar of goalkeepers have already become his trademark.
What is missing Schlaudraff lacks adequate partners who can play combination football. Therefore, it is not clear what he is like in a team game - in Alemannia, Schlaudraff is simply obliged to drag the blanket over himself. Hence the marriage, and the abuse of individual game. There is no stability either.
Achievements in the season 06/07 Schlaudraff is not just marked on the scoreboard, he scores goals that become an event, they are talked about, they are discussed. In the match with Werder Bremen, Schlaudraff defeated the entire defense of the opponent and mockingly threw the ball over the goalkeeper Wiese: this goal in Germany is considered the most beautiful of the season (video). It is not surprising that Joachim Lev has already called the striker in the German national team.
Prospects Already in winter, Schlaudraff can change his team - Werder, Bayer and Borussia are interested in his services. Obviously, in Bremen it can open up in all its splendor - if it withstands the splendor of copper pipes. Schlaudraff's role is scarce for Germany, so in the national team he can become a significant person.
FERNANDO GAGO
Born 10.04.86 Club Boca Juniors Argentina National Team
Role of defensive midfielder
The prototype of Fernando Redondo.
What Gago can do is an extremely versatile, strong and even elegant defensive midfielder. It really resembles Redondo - not just a name.
What is missing In order to become a world-class reference, Gago would be nice to add to creation and score more often. But there is still time for this.
Achievements in the season 06/07 Confirmed in the status of the best support in the championship of Argentina. Won it with Boka. Received offers from Real Madrid, Barcelona, Milan and Chelsea - and ended up in Madrid.
Prospects It will appear in the European superclub, possibly earlier than all the players listed here, until it is assigned to the superclub.
MARCO AMELIA
Born 04/02/82 Club "Livorno" Italy team
Ampoule goalkeeper
Prototype Oddly enough - Oliver Kahn.
What can take off “Livorno” two years ago is tightly attached to the name of the Tuscan club goalkeeper. The young goalkeeper turned out to be brave and jumping, and his career rushed up sharply. Amelia almost does not make unforced errors and has an instant reaction. He is not as tall as, for example, Buffon, but this is not a problem if you know how to choose a position. Marco definitely knows how.
What is missing Sometimes Amelia starts up excessively. Hence the misses at the exit from the gate, and the scandalous poke with his head in the face of striker Bogdani from Siena. Probably, at this age, all this is inevitable - just look at Akinfeev.
Achievements of the season - 06/07 In the summer, Amelia became the world champion, even if he spent the entire tournament on the bench. Today, “Livorno” is comfortably located in the top ten of the table of series A, and the merit of the goalkeeper in this is obvious. Amelia can not only defend: in the last minutes of the UEFA Cup match, Marco rushed into the penalty area of the Belgrade “Partizan” and equalized (in the video). After it turned out that in the children's team, the goalkeeper of “Azzurra Squadra” was playing as a striker.
Prospects About the possible departure of Amelia from Livorno in Italy, they are talking more and more insistently. Only this season, Roma, Milan, Liverpool and Chelsea were named as potential buyers. Transfer to a super club for Amelia is inevitable. The prospects for the team are more vague - while Buffon is playing, the rest can only hope.
URBY EMANUELSON
Born June 16, 86 Ajax Club Team Holland
Amplitude left defender, able to become a left forward
Prototype Giovanni van Bronchorst.
What Urbi can do is a joint production of Surinamese fathers and the Ajax school. Decent speed, technique, a pass and a shot for a defender allow him to sometimes resemble a striker.
What is missing Emanuelson has yet to learn how to connect to attacks without compromising defense.
Achievements in the season 06/07 He became the main player of Ajax, scored a couple of beautiful goals and was drafted into the main team. True, the basis of the team of van Basten has not yet been fixed.
Prospects Can gain a foothold in the team even before van Bronhorst retires - simply by virtue of what will exceed him. Will leave for a strong championship. Newcastle had already made a serious offer to Emanuelson, but was refused.
