Rami back after 2 year of no fotboll - in Brighton

The last game he played at Old Trafford infront of 68 000 ppl. Two years and two months later Rami Shaaban is back - in brighton.

- It was a little bit of a chock comming here, says Shaaban to Sportbladet


- I was more nervous today than I was at United away. Then I know what I was capable to do, now I didnt know how good I was says Shaaban that got alot of credit after his game.

- It was nice to get some saves, it was two years ago I played...

Different world.

It was over two years Shaaban played a competition game. For Arsenal on Old Trafford against Man Utd, 7 dec 2002, 68000ppl...

Yesterday it was 6647 ppl watching "the Seagulls" win at Withdean Stadium.

Same game - two different worlds.

- Yes really. The lads and Brighton city is amazing, but the facilities are crap. Really bad says Shaaban.

Contract this week

Brighton hopes to sign a contract with Shaaban this week. And the former Arsenal goalie is positive to it.
- I will talk to the gaffer after the weekend, and it seemes to be a contract to the end of the season. What I need now is matchs says Shaaban.
Games that will bring him to the stars

"Want to play"
- I have played in the Champions League and Premier League and of course I want to go back there.

If shaaban countinues as yesterday the chances are good that he will play at the top level again.

Rami did impress with good reflexes , position and even that Brighton only had 10 ppl in 60 min they did take 3 solid points.

In Sunderlands 2-1 goal in the 80th min Shaaban had no chance to take it.

- The player went from the half of the field with no one stopping him. And the shot was in the post and then in. Not much to do says Shaaban.

Good reading !
If we can 'crack' Scandinavia and Northern France then we should be setting our sights further afield, next stop the far East tour and a club shop in Shanghai
 


Robert Lester Zamora said:
There was an embargo on the news because McGhee did not want Sunderland to know until shortly before kick-off
I got the distinct impression that, for the first 75 minutes, Sunderland still hadn't worked it out. Hardly any of their players were showing any interest in even getting into our penalty area to have a look at who we had in goal.

I expect they thought they'd read about him in the Sunday papers anyway. So why bother?

More about Shaaban in the newspaper yesterday..



Freddie was a big support

Rami Shaaban about the hard times.

When Shaaban had his lowest period in life he got help from his best friend Fredrik Ljungberg
- He was their and was very important to me says Shaaban to Sportbladet.

Rami and Fredrik got to know eachother when they played togheter in Arsenal. Shaaban broked his bone on a training in december 2002. When his contract did end with Arsenal in june 2004 he got to look for another club.

Recently he did find one - Brighton in Championship League, one division below Premier League.

Will sign this week
Last week he did play his first game for 24 months. And it did go well.
- It seemes like I will sign a contract this week that will be for the season, says Shaaban that still got his appartment in London in the same area as Freddie.

They have keep contact all time when Shaaban is in London.
- He was a good suport when I had a hard time. He is easy to talk with and it´s good to have a Swede near by. We usaly go and drink coffee with Pires and his friends from France.

Getting help with flat.
Do u have any privacy when u two are going out?
- in most cases. We usaly go to places where it´s quiet. But sometimes their is papparazis and waiting on you when u go out. It´s not a big deal says shaaban that also getting help from Freddie with getting a flat.
- He got a big contact network . He is helping me out looking for a flat in Brighton.

Rami will today watch the goal in the meeting with Millwall.
