Bodwin Simons - Goalkeeper
The goalie of the squad the Flying Dutchman is a nickname that fits perfectly. Bodwin is a player that has both attacking and defensive capabilities. Having played striker before in previous clubs he is now, once again, goalkeeper. He proves time upon time that coming out of the goal comes with risks (like that of getting chipped). Although that has happened several times this goalkeeper has also proven to make brilliant stops in important games when it’s needed. |  |
| Hadi Ramizade - Defender A player such as this we like to call the “magician” with the football. Hadi brings the Iranian touch of football to the team. He is hands down the best dribbler in our team and was awarded “Best Player of Budapest Celtic III: Fall Season ‘09”. Although he mainly plays centre-back Hadi can also play in the midfield or, for that matter, attack. Having such a great player in the defense is certainly a relief for the goalkeeper. He is, to say the least, an outstanding footballer.

| Max Darmstaedter - Defender An outstanding left-back Max has all the skills a defender needs; insight, control, decent speed, body balance and the fight for the challenge. He makes sure the left side is shut down and no one passes. This German player clearly displays a style of football that Germany has been known for. Although he hardly speaks he can make his game play do the talking.

Andras Monos - Defender
This blond haired defender has been missing in action for several months. A great defensive player for Celtic III Andras has only been able to play two games in the beginning of the Fall ’09 Season. Although he’s almost never present, just like Ivan, the games he does play he manages to make a big difference and takes risks when needed as defenders should. His height also makes him ideal for a CB to go up for aerial challenges. |  |
Ivan Sichevoy - Defender
An appropriate nickname for him wouldn’t be the “Mad Russian” but the “Drunken Russian”. If Celtic III plays any games before 2 in the afternoon there’s a good chance Ivan will still be in bed. It’s the matches he does make, however, that make him the outstanding player he is. With amazing control abilities Ivan sets up nearly every attack Celtic III creates. A great Russian CMF. The Spring ’10 Season awaits good things for Ivan as games will most probably be scheduled in the early afternoons. Nasdarovjia! |   |
Làszlo Szivlasi (Ubi) - Defender
A player that was quite insecure in the beginning of the season Hungarian Ubi manages to bring a new aspect to the defense of Celtic III. This “Most Improved Player of Budapest Celtic III: Fall Season ‘09” clearly shows why he deserves the award. An occasional mistake is made here and there but when aware of this Ubi does everything capable to recover from that error. A great team player and incredibly reliable. ‘Nuff said. |
|
Mete Aray - Defender
The third Turkish player in the squad Mete has proven what smoking causes. Although his speed may not be quick he compensates for it in challenges. Being a rock he loves to take on the hard challenges that others don’t. It is, therefore, nothing new that he may receive a yellow card here and there (even if it means stopping the ball with the hand to prevent a goal). It’s also wonderful to have a player on the team that can make those “nasty” challenges whenever the ref has his head looking the other way; fantastic in tough situations. |
|
Tunzo (Cho Kye Jun) - Midfielder
South-Korean Kickboxing champion Cho Kye Jun makes football look easy. With his lighting fast speed this player can outrun anyone in his way. His kickboxing skills are definitely on display when Tunzo is on an attack. It’s no wonder this player was awarded “Top Goal scorer of Budapest Celtic III: Fall Season ‘09”. The most powerful kick of the team he has averaged two goals per game. Although he doesn’t talk too much he’s a great striker and a great team player. |  |
Yoshiaki Ikeda - Midfielder
 |
|
Kivanc Belentepe - Midfielder
This ex-Galatasary youth player knows the game. Turkish midfielder Kivanc is usually to be found everywhere up front. Wanting to create plays and move the game forward he isn’t afraid of taking risks. On the field his personality transforms into a player who can get quite heated up about challenges but always manages to have the last “punch”. It may be said, though, that Kivanc needs to come back occasionally as the team loses the ball and defend the midfield area. |  |
| Taka - Midfielder The “lone” ranger now (after Yoshi was promoted to Celtic I) he is the only Japanese player on our team. Even though it’s hard for him to mark someone on height he can easily make up for it in speed. Just like Cho Kye Jun Taka has amazing running abilities. Although not as fast he manages to play a solid roll in the defense by switching the play in the snap of a finger.

Onur Ozkul - Midfielder
Better known as Onka this Turkish midfielder finds the “I” in the word “team”. Although assigned positions as AMF or SS this player will be helping the defense clearing up errors. It is, therefore, no surprise that he can pretty much be played anywhere on the field and create somewhat excitement. A great player with nice touches he does everything to keep the game a team effort and keep it alive whenever hopes are down. |  |
Daniel Erdei-Brull - Midfielder
This Hungarian player is a left footer that loves to control the left half of the pitch. The long free kick Dani manages to make important crosses that reach their targets. Unfortunately he sustained an injury roughly half-way through the Fall ’09 Season and hope to see him back in action at some point during the Spring ’10 Season. Dani has an issue with his temper when things don’t go his way but will eventually fall back to the idea of a game that requires teamwork and where never an individual is to blame. |
|
Simon - Midfielder
The curly haired German is a classic example of an overall player. He has a little bit of everything; ball control, speed, pass and shot accuracy etc. Preferred on the midfield wings he can play anywhere in the midfield if needed. Although he doesn’t realize himself yet he would also make for an outstanding side-back. He has a great team spirit and attempts as often as possible to keep the ball low and make passes stick. |
|
Seong Jeon Kim - Midfield
Another one of the gang Seong is the 5th S-Korean player that Celtic III has to offer. He has not been able to attend many games in the Fall ’09 Season due to “exams” he had to study for but has promised to make a better effort to attend the Spring ’10 Season. He’s a short player but has a good accuracy when dribbling. With his very nice ball control this player can cause for a great deal of threat in the forward midfield and with his great midfielders mentality Seong offers good options for Celtic III. |
|
Han Soo Bin - Midfield
After “Tunzo” (aka: Cho Kye Jun) joined the squad it was only soon after that more S-Koreans followed. Han Soo Bin is one of them. As driver for the other S-Korean players he comes to every practice prepared and is always eager to get out on the field and give it his best. He isn’t afraid of a challenge and keeping ball possession is his number 1 priority. His speed can definitely be improved and, as with many other players, holding his position is also something that needs to be paid attention to. |
|
Daniel Dan - Forward
Daniel Dan, the veteran of our team, fights as if he were younger then all of us. With his team moral & spirits always being at an all-time high this player brings a positive atmosphere to the group. Just like on the field Daniel Dan off the field brings about smiles and an out-going mood. He may also be known as the person that scores the most improbable goals around. Overall a great asset to the team. |  |
Norbert Ando - Forward
One of the few natives Norbert (aka Norbi) is one of the two Hungarian strikers Celtic III has (alongside Daniel Dan) to offer. His height isn’t exactly ideal for going into challenges when balls are kicked deeply but he definitely is a great definition of team play. Although he lacks some control on the ball he is by far one of the most motivated to play. Attending all the games and never arguing about subbing Norbert is a valuable relief striker. |
|
Ihn Wung Jeon (Glenn) - Forward
This S-Korean player must think of something vengeful when he kicks a ball. With his cannon-like shots he can create quite a threat as a midfielder. Always alongside his comrades Glenn is a team player that has a positive attitude about the game play and tries to open up space. He’s a great overall player that will do everything he can to hold his position and create chances. |
|
Chris - Midfielder
The S-Korean who lived in Canada Chris brings an icy touch to the game. Built like a solid rock he has great midfield/defensive potential. No matter where he is played a challenge doesn’t bother him and likes to get his foot to the ball as much as he can. It must be a S-Korean thing because also Chris can kick a ball with an immense force. The S-Koreans are a unified group of individuals that show why they made the semi-finals in the 2002 World Cup. |
