Forbs isn't great, but we barely missed Bergwijn. Bergwijn should be sold this summer.

I do think Tahirovic is able to read the game when we're attacking. I would like to see him and Henderson as the 6/8 combination next week with Hlynsson playing AM. Hlysson also pops up in dangerous areas and does possess defense splitting passes. Our defense yesterday was a bit of a joke as it has ...

100% agree with SPL about Misehouy. Putting him back into Jong Ajax is the right thing to do. He wants to play in Ajax 1 to increase his payout this summer. If someone really wanted to extend, they would've done that by now.

couldn’t stop a chicken from getting a law degree!

What a quote. I'm going to try and use this

Brobbey is indeed coming into his own. Until a few months ago, he would back into the defenders and forget to turn and move away from them. For the past couple months, he has figured out the best way to do that. Back into the defenders and then as you receive the ball, push away from them and run in...

Ended up 4-1.

Would it be too crazy to start dreaming of us ending in the 3rd or 4th spot at the end of the season?

Hlynsson!! 3-1! RKC keeper didn't even move for some reason.

Is Kaplan fit enough to play 1 half? He could (in theory) slot into LCB with Hato replacing Martha. Martha indeed is prone to mistakes.

Great ball to Brobbey from Taylor, who in turn fends off his marker, turns into space and smashes it into the net past the keeper. 2-1!!

Awful cockup in our defense leads to an RKC equalizer.

1-1.

1-0!! Great ball by Berghuis into Bergwijn.

Henderson will be wearing #6. That shirt is now the fastest selling Ajax shirt ever and they are flying off the shelves. apparently, lots of Asians are buying them (who Knew?) so maybe this will increase the supporter base for the club and put a dent in the amount of money shelled out for the playe...

We need a breaker with some passing ability or a deep lying playmaker who can tackle a bit. Alvarez was the first type and Frenkie/Schone were the other type. Currently we have none. If Henderson can be a bit of the type Alvarez and marshall the troops (like he used to at Liverpool), we would've sol...

Henderson confirmed by Ajax. Let's hope this plays out as well as all of us are wishing.

Henderson has been spotted in Amsterdam and is on his way to get his medical done. Sounds like we'll hear confirmation today. This is pretty huge and I hope we're paying him in the 5-6M range and not the 9-10M as has been reported. If we indeed got him on a free, this would've been some tremendous b...

All the news point to us making a hard push for Henderson. He will obviously make tremendous improvement to the current squad quality and with the current lack of leadership in the team.

Just came here to post the Fitz-Jim news. Not sure if he has put on muscle to play DM or if it doesn't really matter and that he'll be better than all the options which we currently have.

In a shock transfer move, Ajax seem to be talking to Jordan Henderson. Henderson famously moved to the Saudi league this past summer and now within 6 months ready to move out.

Agree with Orange14 on this one. Hato is amazing for his age, but he's looking even more advanced because we have drastically lowered our expectations of the entire team and he looks miles ahead of the rest of the crew. There are definitely things he can improve upon and if he's smart he stays with ...

One step in the right direction from Mikautadze. That's one more correct step than I saw from him in his 6 months on the team.

Happy New Year!! Hopefully we start finding our way this year after a disaster 2023.

Both Berghuis (suspended) and Bergwijn (injured) are out for this one. Brobbey however is fit enough to play. I suppose we will start with Forbs on the left, Hlynsson at AM and a problem to solve at RW. Banel played there as a sub for the past 2 games, but not sure if he can start and play the whole...

Played a blinder the first 30 minutes of the game. We should've been up by at least 3 or 4 goals by then.

We faded in the 2nd half.

JVS subbed players well to make sure we kept the lead and take the 3 points.

Oh I totally forgot about that. That was the game I think Bas Dost got hurt.

Looking at the AZ game, they've used up all their subs and I can't even tell how much time is left in their game. They are indeed trailing 1-2 at home.

AZ has played the same number of games as us. I was looking at all these scenarios very intently yesterday :blush.gif: . So we will be 9 points off AZ, but they'll have a game in hand. We had subbed Bergwijn off for Van Axel Dongen. We had Vos playing at CDM and Avila at LCB when the game was abando...
