RIP Tiote - you’ll always be remembered for that belter against the Gooners!

For context, during his career Brama played a grand total of 304 matches for Twente over 2 stints.
Only player to win the Second tier, Eredivisie, Johan Cruijff Schaal and KNVB Cup all with the same club. Also according to Transfermarkt he played 402 games for Twente not 304.
If Young Ajax/psv ever win the 2nd league and one of the players win the rest with the main team would it count?
Young Ajax did win in 2018 so it'd be a player of theirs who could get those honors, think Mazraoui is the only one from that team who could've also won the cup and national title though?
Dani de Wit, Eiting, Lang and Ekkelenkamp as well.
Also according to Transfermarkt he played 402 games for Twente not 304.
ah, I used Wikipedia. I'd guess transfermarkt is more accurate?
IIRC Wikipedia only uses league appearances for players.
Ohh that explains it. That's fucking dumb though not counting other matches.
Legendary team for Twente standards. They will all forever be remembered as the team that won our first and perhaps only league.
It says a lot about Wout brama and the club they were all happy to come to this reunion and goodbye game.
Growing up the Eredivisie was very confusing to me, the first 2 champions I’ve witnessed were AZ and Twente. The only reason I even started following was Dzsudzsák, who was at PSV at the time and seemed to be the next big thing for Hungary
Dzsudzsák is a great example of a “streets will remember” player. Incredible at shooting from any range. I’ll always remember when he scored 2 free kicks in one game against Ajax.
He was an unreal player and one of the only positives of Hungarian football at the time. His move to Anzhi ruined his career. Still playing in the Hungarian Top League though
First time I've seen an Naval flair, wow.
Just paying respect to the club, hopefully they’ll return to the higher leagues one day
I heard the club dissolved. Is it still exists?
I hope cause that's a killer badge.
Remember waking up super early just to see Bryan play with Twente. I hope I am able to see you guys winning again sometime in the future.
I'll always remember tuning in to a shitty illegal stream to watch Twente - Inter, seeing 0-1 and thinking "That's expected tbh", before Janssen hurled that free kick in 20 seconds later.
What a game that was! To achieve a draw at home against Inter, who at the time were the defending champions in the champions league. The entire European campaign was a blast actually, managing to finish above Werder Bremen in the end and going on a great run in the Europa league next. It was also great seeing Gareth Bale for Spurs in the group stage that year, he really made his mark that year and went on to greatness
What a team that was. Especially Ruiz was just so fun to watch.
RIP Tioté...
Nkufo was amazing aswell, just as Theo with his case of beer on the highway lol
That's brilliant, I can't believe how badly he misjudged that. thanks for posting 😂😂😂
Was Steve McLaren there?
Yes together with Erik ten Hag to coach this team.
There is a video of his speech in the locker room on youtube.
Fair enough. McClaren has such a strange career looking back at it.
Won the only trophy in Boros history and took us to a major European final too - great coach, but as always in football finding consistency over a prolonged period is really hard
Where is the statue of McClaren?
It’s funny how Ruiz still looks exactly the same as the then. Looks very young still. And also n’kufo who always looked old. Still has the same look as well. Jansen though isn’t quite the same
Janssen on that Russell Crowe aging trajectory
Pretty sure Theo ballooned as soon as he retired.

I couldn't believe N'kufo is already 48 years old, he looked incredibly in shape
Seeing how old some look now makes you realize how long a time ago 2010/2011 was.
It's weird, some look like they retired 20 years ago, then Bryan Ruiz hasn't aged a day in 10 years
Boschker was around 40 at the time tbf so he's well into his 50's at this point
One of them is not like the others.
Ruiz looks about 26 still haha
He's been playing like a 45year old retiree since 2017
Great team
I knew that Twente won the league back then as a surprise but I had no idea that Stoch, Tiote and Bryan Ruiz played there
Ruiz had a legendary career for Central America standards. Man was an absolute baller at Genk, went to Eredivise, and became a double cup winner and league champion with Twente, ending up as their top scorer with 24 goals that season (only Luis Suarez had more) and even has one of the fastest hat tricks in the league.
He wasn't as good at Fullham but still scored a few bangers. It absolutely breaks my heart that he missed a sitter to lose the league with Sporting since he'd be fondly remember there as well, but he was still good overall. And of course, his legendary career at the national team, what a player this guy was!
Wtf 24 league goals is crazy, he is not even a striker
It wasn't that much of a surprise as we basically finished 2-2-1-2 and had a great squad. As it was the first it was still very historical.
Some other players that played at Twente shortly after are Chadli, Tadic, janko, fer and Ziyech to name a few.
Marc Janko, what a player
Ruiz looks so young had to look it up. He’s 38 but just retired this summer from Costa Rican club. They replaced him with Joel Campbell haha blast from the past.
Bryan Ruiz was a baller in his prime. Great player to watch.
actually they won in 2009-2010 season
[removed]
Stoch was class at Slavia. He could shoot from distance like no one else.
Theo Janssen ate an entire Theo Janssen it seems.
Ruiz my beloved....
Costa Rican god. Loved watching him play for them.
He's a legend for Benfica as well. He missed an open chance a meter away from goal against us for Sporting. If they had scored Sporting would be isolated to win the first league in like 20 years
