Let's make it 14 wins in a row in honor of Cruyff, AFC Ajax [R]

Eredivisie title within reach for Ajax

 

Algemeen Dagblad claims Cruijff is directly responsible for Frank de Boer's success.

"Cruijff also directs Frank de Boer's Ajax

During Frank de Boer's time as trainer of the A1, Cruijff convinced the current head coach of Ajax to play with the point backwards (1 CDM). Cruijff also told De Boer that he shouldn't play Theo Janssen as a the defending midfielder position anymore and instead use Vurnon Anita."

 

And all this time we thought Frank was reading the BigSoccer Ajax thread!

 

He'd be very slow to catch on if that were the case.

 

Those pathetic ##### at AD will do anything to bring Ajax down. I so hope AZ beats them now.

 

I think they're probably right. But I don''t really rate Frank de Boer.

 

You have extremely high standards. I'm not thrilled with the blind spot he has for Janssen, but he's done better for us than Jol, Koster, Van Basten, Blind and Ten Cate.

 

You were right on one issue you earlier in the season pointed at. You blamed FdB for the spree of injuries and recently FdB has admitted that he has been over excercising physically which resulted in the injuries in the first part of the season. And precisely that was what the Adidas (millions worth) equipment in that big balloon was ment for. To measure and adjust physical efforts. But the staff tugged it away in a corner of that balloon, making Adidas furious. Telling was the remarks by Jonk and Bergkamp that they donot measure for measuring....Yeah bright lights.

 

I don't understand why you always type such nonsense. It's not like anyone, literally anyone, takes it seriously.

 

Almost as cool as Prince Bernard. Unfortunately for Prince, he's just been notified his season in the C1 was his last season for Ajax.

 

Hmmm, quoting FdB saying something you dont like is nonsense from me...

 

Looking forward to tomorrow's game. Let's not lose it.

 

Quote? What are you talking about?

 

Not so long ago it would have been hard to believe that we could win the title with Aissati in our starting lineup. Good for him after some of the drama he's been through with this club.

 

I think it was in an AT5 programm a few weeks ago. Personally I thought it was very mature of him to admit he did something wrong and for you it must be reassuring that he knows he did it, so he will not make the same mistake.
The down side of it of course for me is that we will not see a long list of over stretched injured players at Ajax causing lost points.

 

No changes to the lineup this week. Time to get it done.

 

Really? What about Sigthorsson, Boilesen, Van Der Wiel, et al? We've lost a lot of starters to injury.

 

Kind of like last season's away kit but with green instead. Not loving it. I hope they wear dark blue shorts going forward instead of the neon green.

 

??? I mean no changes to the lineup from last week.

 

Sorry, that was a Quick Reply to 010soccerfans comment about Ajax being lucky that 010 had a bunch of injuries. Only, from the time I started to the time I finished was like 30 minutes, so it wasn't such a quick reply.

 

Why wasn't the goalie red carded? It was an intentional foul on the player going in goal.
