Discuss anything about Ajax or the 82 titles it has won.

It sounds to me that we have more injured players than healthy ones. Injured to some degree or another: van der Wiel, Alderweireld, Sulejmani, Ebecilio, Steks, Anita; are there others I've missed and other than Steks and Alderweireld are the others expected to play this weekend?

BTV802 · Apr 7, 2011

Blind. We might see Oleguer at right fullback or maybe that new kid from A1 that was on the bench last week?

JC-14 · Apr 7, 2011

Should be good enough to beat Groningen:

Sulejmani----El Hamdaoui---Ozbiliz
--------Eriksen-------De Jong
-------------Anita/Enoh
Boilesen-Vertonghen-Ooijer-VdWiel/Van Rhijn
--------------Vermeer

Lodeiro is back with the first team so maybe he'll get some playing time as well.

I think we will probably see this:

Sulejmani----El Hamdaoui---Ozbiliz
--------Eriksen-------De Jong
-------------Anita/Enoh
Boilesen-Vertonghen-Ooijer-VdWiel/Van Rhijn
--------------Vermeer

Lodeiro is back with the first team so maybe he'll get some playing time as well.

VdWiel is fit?

JC-14 · Apr 7, 2011

I'm not sure. But I don't think he was hurt that bad.

BTV802 · Apr 7, 2011

Ahahaha great picture.

I'd like to see a midfield of Anita, Lodeiro and Eriksen.

JC-14 · Apr 7, 2011

They are out of contract at the end of the season and I'm sure that once the new Board is installed their contracts will be extended.

Coronel gives me the impression he realized he made a mistake in supporting Vd Boog. I don't know whether that's because of self preservation (of his status and legacy) or because he genuinely changed his mind. Anyway, he wants a new bestuur as soon as possible. When that happens they can kick out Vd Boog and co.

Van der Wiel, Anita and Ebecilio all fit for tomorrow btw.

I think Coronel has done a lot to right the ship. I don't see why he should go. Hopefully he stays.

JC-14 · Apr 10, 2011

He's made a ton of mistakes and is unwilling to replace the current Directie. He must and will leave.

BTV802 · Apr 10, 2011

Here is the lineup

[LINEUP-4-3-3]Sulejmani, El Hamdaoui, Ozbiliz, Anita, Eriksen, De Jong, Boileson, Vertonghen, Ooijer, Van der Wiel, Vermeer[/LINEUP-4-3-3]

BTV802 · Apr 10, 2011

If are looking at him from far away and squint a little bit, Ozbiliz looks a little bit like Suarez.

Or you are just watching a mediocre internet feed like me.

BTV802 · Apr 10, 2011

Well that was a mostly useless first half with lots of possession.

Disagree. I think this was one of the best halves we have played. Good defense and on offense we kept the space and made the right passes. El Hamdaoui needs to pass sooner rather than dribble into trouble. He probably should have finished the chance he created. Anita gives them the extra passer in the midfield that was missing for long stretches this season when he had to play left back.

BTV802 · Apr 10, 2011

I didn't mean that Ajax played badly just that there wasn't much end product. Sulejmani's shot off the corner was the only really threatening opportunity. Lots of wild shots from distance.

BTV802 · Apr 10, 2011

Beautiful goal!

BTV802 · Apr 10, 2011

And that should hopefully seal it.

BTV802 · Apr 10, 2011

Roda up 1-0 on Twente!!!

BTV802 · Apr 10, 2011

Bummer how it ended up as a draw but this PSV Heerenveen match is tasty!
