Tomás Galásek
Our man hasn't played a game for Ajax yet in 2005... Before the winter break he picked up a groin injury, which turned out to be very persistent indeed.
Today's news: he will undergo surgery of the abdominal wall. He will not be out longer due to this surgery; it is actually supposed to make for a quicker recovery. He will be out for at least a few more weeks, but this was already the case anyway.

Finally - good news...
Galásek trained with the group today, for the first time in months. There's a report on Ajax.nl.
"It went well. It felt good and I'm nice and tired now. Feels great. I have to build it up slowly, step by step. Next week I want to be able to train with the group the whole week and perhaps I can play stretch for Young Ajax on Tuesday evening, against Young Excelsior. But that's the schedule inside my head. I won't necessarily happen that way."
Man, have we missed this guy... He's so important.

Tomás Galásek has now 'officially' been declared fit and he is training with the group, giving 100%. However, he will not yet be in the squad tomorrow. Danny Blind wants him to play a game with Young Ajax first, because he's been out for so long. Galásek is generally expected to play in Volendam tomorrow night (Young Volendam vs Young Ajax at 6:30 PM CET).

Rumour! According to the Voetbalprimeur website more than just one 'reliable source around Willem II' has said that Tomás Galásek will return to his previous club. Galásek his unhappy with his current situation at Ajax: Danny Blind is dissatisfied with his play and does not seem to rate him as highly as his predecessors, Adriaanse and Koeman.
Hmmm. I don't know what to think...

I am not sure why so many forum members here want him gone.
I think he is an extremely usefull player for Ajax and has shown that in the past. He bring leadership and balance to the midfield. If he leaves then we only have kids left in the midfield. I think it would be a big mistake unless they have their eyes on an experienced midfielder which they can buy

tough, really tough, he´s been a key part for ajax in the past. His experience is valuable for the young one coming up yet i dont think that Tomas is going to behave like Yannis. I for one would not want him to go but you have to understand his position. He´s been susceptible to injury and he´s getting old so its a tough call. :sad:
BRING IT ON !!!!...
Who is supposed to be our link midfielder now when the going gets tough? Maduro? You'd think Blind, of all people, would appreciate the value of an older defensive midfielder in the squad/team.
You mightn't need Galasek against RBC Rosendaal but he comes in damn handy against harder teams.
If Blind is nailing the squad down to fit only one formation then we're doomed when the bandwagon starts to get into difficulty in the winter mud.

What about Lindenbergh. He can play midfield can't he? and he's no spring chicken.bryan schreef:You'd think Blind, of all people, would appreciate the value of an older defensive midfielder in the squad/team.
Ajax will rue the day the get rid of Tomas Galasek, if the rumour proves true. He can't be too excess to requirements if Blind subs out Escude`, changes his tactics, and inserts Galasek at midfield. This shows that he is ,at the very least, an important option for Ajax. If, after Wednesday, we have at least 6 additional matches,I feel it would also be ludicrous to lose a multi-positional midfield player. Lack of depth and the CL are not compatible.

Galasek is a usefull player for Ajax. So Ajax probably doesn't want to sell him, but I can understand his position. He has been one of Ajax' key players for a couple of years now, and then it's hard to take place on the bench.
Especially when you wanna play in the World Cup later this year. He won't be selected when his situation stays like it is right now.
He has been loyal to Ajax since he arrived in Amsterdam and may be Ajax should be loyal to him as well. If he really wants te leave (which he probably wants), Ajax should let him go. We got Maduro and Lindenbergh for this position (and in case of an emergency Heitinga and Emanuelson as well), so options enough.

I always liked Galasek and rated him highly. However I have never seen him a a big leader. Keeping him in the group for "experienced leadership" is hence not an argument I would fall for.Kowalczyk schreef:Rumour!

He has to contribute playing wise - simple as that.
Could be that he's not in his prime and then I would say that it could be fair both to him and us to let him go. I think however that he has at least one or two really good years left though and hope that he can spend them with Ajax.
Why do you build me up? BUTTERCUP!

Philippe posted this in the Players Leaving thread, but it's such breaking news that I'm posting it here as well...
Wow. This really is a very serious exodus...
K.
Seems like Galásek will leave. The Dutch-language report says that both parties had the intention to extend the Czech's deal, but that they couldn't agree on the terms of the contract. Which means that Galásek will leave Ajax at season's end...philippe schreef:Galásek toch weg bij Ajax
Martin van Geel en Tomas Galásek spraken onlangs de intentie uit om de aflopende verbintenis van de Tsjech te verlengen. Maar beide partijen konden het over het nieuwe contract niet eens worden. Dat betekent dat hij Ajax na dit seizoen alsnog gaat verlaten
it seems that both parties can not find an agreement. Therefore Galasek could be another name on the List : this is getting scary.

On AT5 yesterday they asked Galasek why he didn't sign, and he simply said that the parties couldn't come to an agreement and that he couldn't say anymore.
Then AT5 went and asked Danny Blind, and he spilled all the beans about the contract negotiations. I thought it was disrespectful towards the player's privacy.

This may not be a bad thing. The squad has been in decline for too long and its really starting to show. Fresh blood might be just the thing (with the right coach of course).The problem is can the Ajax fans be patient in a rebuilding process?!?Venezuelan Ajacied schreef:Next year is going to be a huge rebuilding year.
One thing I find interesting though. There was a mass exodus of players from PSV last year and THIS is there rebuilding process...leading the friggin league. Something is not right there.

That's cause Hiddink, PSV fans and the club itself kno whow to properly settle and welcome the players. Here at Ajax, we go "We expect you to score 20 goals this season...we expect only 5 goals conceded we expect.." we pile the pressure on, andthe squad, fresh or not, would get unsettled.
Get a Cock
Yeah, there have been plenty of players that have failed at PSV in the beginning but blossomed later on. Take Theo Lucius for example, he never set the place on fire but still managed to be a decent squad member none the less, even putting in match winning performances in important games every now and then. At Ajax he would have been written off after six months.
