18 SEP 2021; Ajax - SC Cambuur; Match Day 5

Bericht door Orange14 » vr sep 17, 2021 12:24 am

Right back into action on Saturday for our stalwart warriors as they host Cambuur. The visitors lie eight in the table with six points from two wins. Ajax have busy fixture schedule with a trip to Fortuna Sittard on Tuesday, then home to Groningen on the 25th before hosting Besiktas on the 28th. Ajax have the depth to manage the matches but need to stay alert.

I would rest at least 2-3 folks and bring them on as 2nd half subs if needed. Get Nico and Rensch a game. Maybe Taylor to replace Alvarez/Gravenberch.

Let's hope so. EtH finally has a deep enough team to rotate players. Tadic also needs a rest but maybe Daramy needs more practice time. there is a lot more flexibility with the 5 allowed subs in matches. I think this should be made permanent by FIFA/UEFA as it should reduce injuries. The English league is still an outlier only allowing 3 subs.

I think I read Tadic is a fitness freak, but anyway he seems to hate being off the pitch and I can only recall one or two games where he’s been available and hasn’t started.

Blind has struggled a bit recently, even his passing has been off, so I wonder if he needs a rest.

And I totally forgot about Neres. Needs to start some of these games as well.

Also, Kudus is on his way back and scored a goal for Jong Ajax today.

We truly have a deep squad this year. We might just make some damage in Europe.

the ref blows the whistle at exactly 45 minutes in what has been a blowout half. at times like these, I wish the league had only 16 teams. cambuur can’t seem to string 3 passes together. I hope eth gives danilo a chance to play tonight.

Another goal festival against a very weak opponent. Ajax had little defending to do and did not let up in the offensive half of the field with lots of good passing and quickness. the scoring was spread out with only Neres getting a brace and my MOTM for his outstanding wing play. Too bad no other Euro team stepped up for him during the summer transfer window. Timber was also outstanding splitting halves between the center and right fullback position. Cambuur didn't bunker down and tried to play but were overmatched.

Player Ratings:

Pasveer (6) - routine saves and a quiet day at the office
Tagliafico (6.5) - OK match but it seems like he wonders why no other team came after him this summer
Martinez (7) - had a couple of good interventions and had little defending to do
Timber (7.5) - another good game with a cracking goal and some great runs from both the center and right side
Mazraoui (7) - solid half of football before being rested
Alvarez (7) - had one woeful pass that should have led to a goal but the rest of his game was solid
Gravenberch (7.5) - really good on the ball all match long and almost got the 10th goal with hard shot that hit the upright
Berghuis (7.5) - all over the pitch tonight and when he got the ball he made the right decision quickly
Tadic (7) - good match from the Captain
Haller (7) - saw everyone around him score and then he netted one
Neres (8) - wonderful wing play with two good scores and a nice assist
Schuurs (6.5) - didn't have to defend and had a good half with some good passing
Taylor (6) - played well coming on for Alvarez
Daramy (6.5) - really nice goal and he has great speed on the left side
Blind (6) - didn't think he was going to play but he did and was just fine
Danilo (6) - good goal when he came on for Haller

Fortuna Sittard coming up on Tuesday.
Appie Nouri will forever be remembered for his grace and humanity on and off the pitch!
