The Schreuder Era Starts and Ends: 2022-23 Ajax Season

So we basically get an Eredivisie team in the epl
It would be hilarious if he runs all the way to the title with this.

 

I doubt he will last long enough to eat the Xmas pudding in Manchester.

 

Ajax in trouble if they have to rely on Klaiber, or Magallan. Terrible signings.
The Jong Oranje prospects seem very small and will be physically overmatched.
With regards to the main squad big problems with GK, and going with Schuurs, Blind, Berghius, & Klaassen every match, especially in Champions League they will get exposed.
Not a fan of Taylor either in the sample size that I’ve seen from him.
Need to enhance the quality in the squad badly.
Hoping Kudus and Ihattaren step up big time.
Need to find some more power, pace, and quality in all areas of the pitch.

 

There's quite some time to spare before they have to show up in the CL, so time to fix things.

 

Another great scoop by Ajax. From the player's perspective, as in the case of Bergwijn, I think this moves boosts Wijndal's chance to go to World Cup. Higher level of competition (playing in UCL) and better exposure overall.

 

Martinez saga looks like it's heating up. 50m + add ons probably will be the final price.

I know it's losing a main starter but not taking this would be insanity from Ajax.

 

Martinez as good as gone. I hope it wraps up soon-- we need to buy a replacement ASAP.

Internal options are Blind as LCB (meh), Alvarez going back to LCB (I like), Kik seems like no chance to play at Ajax.

 

Not a very inspiring group whatsoever especially in the back.

 

Blind will be toast against any top opponent and Schuurs to partner him is another weak link who will be had for pace.
Klaiber, and Magallan cannot see the field.
What a major drop off in quality for Ajax.
Need to find a couple of players immediately including a GK.
Midfield looks very weak too.
I’m not fond of Klaassen as you know, and have serious doubts about Taylor.
Need to find some quality players quickly.
I wonder if Antony will be sold?

 

I read about Bassey. Regarding forwards I know Brobbey has been mentioned.
Looks like Zirkzee will get back to Bayern and may get a chance as Lewandowski is likely to move to cash strapped Barca.

 

Ajax should move for sandler. He has all the attributes of a top defender in the making. He just has been unlucky with injuries resulting in very little game time. Plus he can play both on the right and left. Available free as well.

 

Brobbey returns on a 5 year deal.
Happy for his return and I expect big things from him.
Completely unnecessary that he left in the first place so fortunately it worked out.

 

Ajax also sign from Porto winger Francisco Conceicao son of the Manager Sergio.
Young player who is lightweight but a big talent.
Very surprised his Dad would allow this but Porto similar to Ajax in having many top younger players.
Interesting to see his development and how this works.

 

Hopefully Bassey comes but now several clubs are involved as expected.
Ajax really need upgrade of talent in the back and the Nigerian will be an excellent signing.
Need a GK too on my wishlist.

 

Why wouldn’t Feyenoord bring him back?
Was a huge prospect that Man City had very high hopes for.

 

I also read that Ajax are in for Memphis at 20 million.
Competition between Spurs which he has smartly turned down, Juventus, and Roma.
This would be great news if this happens.
Memphis badly treated by clueless Xavi and financially disgraceful Barca.
Memphis had been linked to Marseille and Sevilla in other reports.
Barca will regret his piss poor treatment.

 

Not really. Memphis isnt quite good enough for the absolute top. Auba and Lewandowski are better strikers (assuming Lewa ends up at Barca)
