Mario Jardel lavishes praise on Sporting Lisbon's http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ricky-van-Wolfswinkel-c31131 – Primeira Liga News
Sporting legend Mario Jardel has lavished praise on the club’s current striker, Ricky van Wolfswinkel, saying that he could become one of the best players to every ply his trade at Jose Alvalade.
Former Brazilian International, Jardel, visited his old stomping ground in Lisbon today and was really happy with the start the club had made to the season.
Sporting have now secured maximum points in their last four games and it finally looks like as if Domingos Paciência’s men have gotten their act together.
While still not being the favourites to win Liga Sagres, the Lions do possess the quality of players that can oust any team in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Oguchi-Onyewu-c28332 are some of the best but Dutch forward Ricky
van Wolfswinkel outshines them all.
The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Netherlands-c753 International made the switch from Utrecht to Sporting in the summer and it looks like one of the best buys the club have authorized in years. Wolfswinkel’s form alone can live up to his hefty price but his importance on the pitch can also
not be forgotten.
Having netted four times in his last five outings, the attacker is scoring goals, left, right and centre for his new employers. If he continues finding the back of the net, not only will Sporting have a chance of winning the Portuguese league but they can
also fancy themselves in the UEFA Europa League.
Mario Jardel agrees with this notion and claimed that the former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Vitesse-c40905 man will be integral to Domingos Paciência’s plans for the season.
"He started very well. I hope he has the same success I had at Sporting. If he scores as many goals as I did. Then no doubt that Sporting will be champions. "
The 38-year-old also said that he was impressed with start the Sportinguistas had made to the term and hoped that they can maintain their momentum over the course of the campaign.
"They started well but now with four straight wins, that is worth mentioning. I wish Sporting all the best and urge them to keep playing good football. If they do so, the victories will come naturally." He concluded.
With the strongest squad in the Primeira Liga, Sporting Lisbon are going to be tough to beat and are likely to be crowned champions if they keep up their good form.
