My favorite is Germinal, because of their goalie!!

I read that he scored 2 times when he played in macedonia :shock:

Yes, though I don't know when did that happen and how (maybe penalty kicks). He had a great game last week or the week before that, when he saved a penalty shot and stopped few other big shots. He has his moments, sometimes good, sometimes bad.
I can see that Anderlecht is coming back to those glory days. What surprises me is that Genk and Standard are ranked pretty low.

Standard playes in Play-Off Group B and just won it first match against Charleroi with 2-0 and 2 goals of Mbokani.
For me it is not surprising because Standard totally focussed for the Champions League.
