-Mustafa Amini , did you know Borussia Dortmund before the team got into contact with you? if yes, what did you associate with this club?


There are hundreds more but cbf...

Main ideas i'm seeing,

-They love the hair
-Some think he has a big future
-Some think he should be in the first team
-There seems to be a VERY big concern about him being Islamic, and having to fast during his career
-One guy noted that he has improved A LOT since they last saw him trial.

Sorry if this is a bit of a troll thread... I had good intentions, but the comments from the fans weren't quite as insightful as i'd hoped.

http://www.facebook.com/BVBorussiaDortmund09?ref=ts -It's the 2nd most recent status update, for those interested in checking more of the 450 comments.

It was part of a question and answer session. Amini is yet to reply to his questions.

That's good if he's fast during his career.

Good to see but taken with a grain of salt. I remember someone comparing Ruka to van persie maybe.

Bachar Houli an AFL player played a full game while on a fast a couple of weeks ago. So it can be done at elite level.

doubt very much that houli would have REALLY fasted. for his community to save face he would say that he did, but there's no way he did and no way amini would.

The big thing for me is that the club are putting him out there alot in their press releases, social media etc he is a very clear part of the first team squad if their pr is any indicator. Clubs usually dont parade around a player then throw him in the reserves all year.

Wasn't even aware he was Muslim. Not surprised they're concerned to be honest.

I thought Houli was given permission/blessing from there priest? to eat during certain holy times. Same thing could happen to Amini

I don't think it's that big a deal tbh, some of the worlds top players are Muslim but I suppose not all are strict followers, plus Sahin is Muslim and he was one of Dortmund's stars.

But there are plenty of top Muslim players at elite levels such as: Nasri, Ribery, Zlatan, Papiss Cisse, Benzema, Ozil, Khedira and plenty more, a massive chunk of the French national team are Muslim.

Edited by fredsta: 8/8/2012 11:54:18 AM

I think they are assuming because he's afghani

Demba Ba followed it strictly didn't score for the first 5 games

Religion. Olol. Hope Amini foes well over there.

So, now look at Ba, top player at Newcastle.

Add to the list of Muslim players, Toure (both), Sagna, Anelka, Dzeko, Kalou, Abidal.

Religion shouldnt be an issue and i dont see why they should be concerned Heine. no need to clutch at straws.

This kid will make the haters eat their hearts out.

I could see him proving alot of people wrong in the future...great talent

They only have to fast during the day. A footballer wouldn't want to be eating lots the day of a game anyway. Maybe just big meals at night. Islam isn't the kind of pseudo religion many of the Christianity sects have become.

LOL

-PB

I believe he is a convert to Islam as his wife is of Algerian descent. Pretty sure Ibra is christian though

Edited by sydneyfc1987: 9/8/2012 12:17:28 PM

What's to lol at, Ribery is Muslim.

Must follow it very loosely.:d

Ibra has a Muslim father and a Christian mother but he followed Islam for a while IIRC but apparently he became disillusioned and converted to Christianity

EDIT:Just shows that intelligence is not required to post on a Football Forum Banning usually offends so please don't post a comment like that again, Thanks.

Well said.

WTF! ](*,) ](*,)

Since Ramadan follows the Islamic calendar it moves each year (I don't know the Islamic calendar but it is slightly shorter than the one we use as it is a lunar not seasonal) so this year it started on the 20/21st of July so should finish after soon after the first game of the season so teams should not worry about fasting during the season.

- Most players don't experience a drop in form anyway the Ba one was more an likely a coincidence and the media blamed it on Ramadan. There is not a massive list of players each year playing shit because of it.

- Ironi Kiryat Shmona is an Isreali team so I presume most of the team practices Islam and they have made it to the Champions league play-off round during Ramadan.

- Frédéric Kanouté is another who fasted since he was 22 and played for Seville till the end of last year aged 34 playing full matches while fasting. He is so devoted that he refused to where kits with their sponsor 888.com on them because they were a gambling company

I love this obviously bad translation



I haven't seen the original but I presume it is meant to say "what dialect" but how it is written makes me think of



Also I don't think they worry about Islam, which comments refer to his religion anyway? there are many players in Germany with Turkish heritage (i.e. Gundogan) so I am sure they have experienced it before

Possibly the stupidest thing ever posted on this forum. And thats a big call I know.

What the FUCK?!?!?!?!?!

I've never said this on 442 before but if that's not "ban" worthy then I have no idea what is!!!

Edited by Joffa: 10/8/2012 06:49:06 PM

Slight overreaction :lol:

Check out the religion topics in the Extra time section if you really want to be offended.

People in those threads did cop bans for what they posted though.
