Lebanese FLB 2011-2012 Signings and Rumours

[mavrick_h]

after reducing the list to 22 i consider that each team should have a maximum of 4 A players.

it's not logic 4 i think it's 3 cause 3 times 8 teams (maybe 10 teams not sure) = 24

so two teams with 2 A list players.

[mavrick_h]

I guess we will see the same scenario as last year where teams like Riyadi and Sagesse (this year) will end up lending some of their players to other teams and then have them again with them in the international tournaments.

exactly the level of the league will increase a lot


also i prefer billy matt daniel ali haidar and if other abroad first time comers remain outside the A list. (if someone can pass this idea to the federation it would be perfect)

with that it will be a great competitive league.

i didn't actually do the calculations man. I thought of 3 as well but some teams participating in regional tournaments would offend such a step that's why i chose 4.

then they will take their loaned players with them. like khalid said

Regarding Chudney the reason why he wasn't so impressive in the Asian Championship was because he got injured while playing here in Abu Dhabi in the Arab Championship right before going to the Philippines...

thanks for the information,that explains a lot.

[Grimjow]

it's a list of 30 of the best local players taht recently have been reduced to 22.
Each team is allowed to have a maximum of 5 players from this list. It has been created to increase the level of competition in the league and forbid some teams to possess all stars.

Thank you my friend explains a lot

then they will take their loaned players with them. like khalid said

yeah but chemistry wise it would hurt them. I am against having loaned players regrouped in the last seconds. In the time being 4 is more than enough considering outside participation else i would go for 3.

nchon ET Land Elephants are targeting Vroman Jackson (208-C/F-81, college: Iowa St.). The team is mulling the possibility of splitting ways with their import player Hill Herbert (208-F-84, college: Providence) and now are looking closely at Vroman Jackson

the list A for next year contains 22 players and each team can have a maximum of 5 players from the list

Guys, any news about Anibal ?
i heard that Wadih el Absi had promised to win the 2012 league where does he stand from his promises now ?
I think that Anibal should seriously start thinking of signing some local players, bcs as it seems Sagesse and Riyadi have began amassing all the best players, and if Anibal were to compete next year they are to have some high level locals to support their super foreigners

Anyways i think that 2012 season will be the best season in all FLB history, with at least 5 teams competing (champvile,riyadi,sagesse,anibal and mouttahed).

not fair

Talal Makdessi Sagesse Beirut President and OMT Manager ,Maybe will leave Sagesse After Big Problems With Michel Khoury !!
If Talal will Stay so Michel will leave ,and if Michel Will stay Talal will leave + if Talal will leave ,Maybe Sagesse EX-President Georges Chehwan and Plus Propreties Manager will Replace Talal and Support Sagesse Financily !!
Talal Makdessi if he will leave will Go To Bejje Team a Newcomer to the DIV 1 After Winning DIV 2 and will have a strong Team ,because Talal will bring All Sagesse Player To Bejje !!!!

i really hope that Talal will leave Sagesse and go to bejjeh, that would be a great move and could greatly benefit lebanese basketball.
just imagine guys, 6 teams competing on title
Riyadi-Champvile-Bejjeh-Mouttahed-Sagesse-Anibal (with Absi who promised to win the league this season)
that's a total of 6 teams competing on the title with and with hoops and byblos' levels rising the way they are, i think our league will be comparable to some european leagues

I dont see pres. Talal leaving as a bad thing, if he does we will see Bejjeh competing on the title, plus with Plus properties financing Sagesse,you can expect some big bucks to be spent,the thing which will definetly drasticaly improve the level of our league

[mavrick_h]

it seems that Fadi's going to Riyadi

[gazara]

Just Rumors ,Fadi for Sure will Stay in Champville and will not leave !!
Talal Makdessi is Negociating all the players and not leaving anyone !!!
(Nadim Soueid ,Charbel Sokhen ,Jean Abdel Nour ,Ali Haidar ,Charles Tabet ,Mohammad Fahes ,Rodrigue Akl ,Mazen Mneinmneh ....

[gazara]

If Talal will Stay in Sagesse be Sure that Sagesse will be the Strongest Team this Year even Stronger than Riyadi ,he s spending a lot of Money
if Talal goes to Bejje he will make of Bejje a strong Team to Compete on the Title ,Sagesse also will Have a high Budget with Pres.Georges Chehwan And Plus Propreties

So:

Riyadi Beirut Team the Strongest Team as Always with their Huge Budget (also Unlimitted ) with Pres.Hicham El Jaroudi and Saad Hariri Financing

Champville Maristes for Sure a strong Team with the Presence Of Duo Khatib and Coach Ghassan Sarkis with a group of Strong And Good players

Mouttahed Tripoli the Team who s very hard to Win over them ,with Coach Paul Caughter and Elias Restom NT Player and group of young and good players

Sagesse Beirut Team ,with Pres. Talal Makdessi who s spending a lot of money and making Sagesse the Best for season 2011-2012

are you sure man ?
coz that's why they letting Jean to go because of Fadi.

rumours are saying Riyadi is going to pay 1 million $ for each season to Fadi, plus bonuses with every tournament/cup they win.

[tonyleb]

i do understand the need for new blood into the national team but what i dont understand is why Rony fahed is the only one who needs to go eventhough he still capable of giving a lot. i do appreciate if u guys open a thread and discuss this issue especialy that rony gave lebanon a lot and was the reason of the lebanese national team on many occasions...Respect lal FAHED and all the best for our national team.... hail to lebanon

وتاتي خطوة الحكمة لتضع الاتحاد في موقف حرج خصوصاً ان فريجي خاض الاستحقاق العالمي كلبناني وبالتالي لا يمكن اعتباره غير لبناني إلا إذا كان هناك تزويراً حصل في كأس العالم الماضية ما سبؤدي إلى فتح تحقيق من قبل الاتحاد الدولي وربما إلى وقف لبنان دولياً!
