gersandy 594 Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Watching the champions league programme there and Van Vossen was in the Ajax side that won the 95 european cup.I never knew he was in that side. Seedorf, Kluivert, the De Boers, Litnamen, Overmars, Van der Sar. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

legalbeagle 3,734 Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 He had been an exceptional player, aside from that miss in the OF game, he just never quite did it for us, I do remember one fantastic goal against Kilmarnock from an impossible type of angle.

gersandy 594 Posted May 16, 2015 Author Share Posted May 16, 2015 How much did we pay for him? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
legalbeagle 3,734 Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 How much did we pay for him?Somewhere in my head says £2.5m but that could just be utter bollocks! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gersandy 594 Posted May 16, 2015 Author Share Posted May 16, 2015 Somewhere in my head says £2.5m but that could just be utter bollocks!Just checked Wikipedia. Was apparently an exchange for Oleg Salenko. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pure_Quality 3,295 Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Somewhere in my head says £2.5m but that could just be utter bollocks!Was it not some kind of swap deal with Oleg Salenko and some Turkish team?! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gersandy 594 Posted May 16, 2015 Author Share Posted May 16, 2015 Still baffled he was in that Ajax side. Alot of people see it as one of the best teams in history. At least in the top 3 anyway. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
legalbeagle 3,734 Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Just checked Wikipedia. Was apparently an exchange for Oleg Salenko.In a desperate attempt to regain some credibility, I think it may have been £2.5m for Salenko! But yes, I remember it now.

Ibroxholm 2,280 Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Wasn't a bad player. Would have been much better if he had occasionally passed the ball to a teammate. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Gallant Pioneer 555 Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Van Vossen was one of the most talented players in Europe at his peak. He was different class. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferris Bueller 1,569 Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Noticed he had a quick clip/interview in the Fernando: hard times doc.His only comment was along the lines that Rangers was a dangerous place to be for certain players, program didn't elaborate on it but would liked to have heard more about what he was getting at?

brazz1972 397 Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Still baffled he was in that Ajax side. Alot of people see it as one of the best teams in history. At least in the top 3 anyway.From memory I don't think he played a lot in that champions league team did he? I always remember it being De Boer, Litmanen, Finidi George, Kanu and Kluivert as attacking players. Maybe wrong though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least in the top 3 anyway.Wasn't alive back then but by the sounds of it its probably up there. I still find it hard to get a team much better than milans about 10-12 year ago, with Maldini, Cafu, Shevchenko etc Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hammer time 653 Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 seem to remember him starting a season quite well, 8 goals or so by about the start of October then I think he got clattered by someone in a CL game at Ibrox, going off injured and then the miss at the Piggery just killed his career here Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
