AFC Ajax Thread[2007/2008]

[Silencer]

he's out for three weeks or something so it's not that serious

 

[ajaxforever]

Haha Rommedahl.

Good signings this season...Heijblok, Delorge, Colin, Rommedahl, Urzaiz...

Cocu gone, Alex gone...Zonneveld, Lazovic, Van Der Leegte...

 

[jimorrizon]

Rumor....

Chelito Delgado (Cruz Azul) ----> Ajax

 

[Sevillista]

Hey guys, what can you tell me about Tom de Mul. As you must already know, he's come to Sevilla to back up Jesus Navas.

Hey guys, what can you tell me about Tom de Mul. As you must already know, he's come to Sevilla to back up Jesus Navas.

He isnt worth the 5 mill (!) you payed for him! A (at max) decent player. Has some speed, but doenst come close to that of Jesus! Jesus is superiour in everything and by miles. De Mul is really not a great buy. But o well he is backup so why not.

 

[Silencer]

I agree with Justhammy, he's ok but not great by all means.

It was a very bad day for us today

DAVIDS BROKE HIS LEG (LEFT SHIN) AND IS OUT FOR 3 MONTHS

On top of that the game against Go Ahead Eagles was cancelled thanks to a few so called fans who made trouble on the stands
At that time it was 1-0 for us (Huntelaar) sh*t

 

[PSVFOREVER]

Not very professional of Davids not to wear shin protection (scheenbeschermers. don't know the english word for it). Especially with his style of play.

 

[Silencer]

Agreed Cody

Just been watching the game against Glasgow Rangers and we did well, 1-1 endresult and I have to say WELCOMEEEEEEEE ROMMEDAHL
He's an assett to the team for sure and the same goes for Kennedy although he should've scored when he was alone in front of goal
Positionplay was good but the team was not complete, no Gabri, no Davids but I have to say the 2nd half was nice to watch
Our goal was a good one, great attack through Wesley, Rommedahl and Heitinga was the scorer

Fallkirk up next saturday..

 

[Silencer]

WESLEYYYYYYYY WHAT A GOAL!!!

Good win against Atletico Madrid tonight with 2-0.
I was especially pleasantly surprised and impressed with the way Gabri played it was awesome!
He made a great goal but Wesley OMG that was sheer class I'm so happy he has decided to stay with us :mexican:
Arsenal won their game against Lazio so now it's up to us and Arsenal to decide who will win the Amsterdam Tournament. I'm going to watch the game at de Arena for sure.

 

[Zlatan]

Hey guys, just arrived home from the cold and rainy Scandinavia. Still had a great time though. God, I love these Scandinavian chicks.

Anyway, I read in the newspaper today that the match versus Atletico went very well, that's atleast one good thing to hear. But from what I've heard in those 4 weeks I was absent, the only good news was that Wes promised to stay. Edje breaking his leg might threaten our chances of getting to the CL, but Slavia Prague or that sh*tty Slowakian team must be beatable even without the pitbull. I do hope we get a left winger to replace Ryan and Perez, otherwise we'll have to rely on Mitea ()

Hi Max! You followed the Tour back there in Scandinavia? Way better than preseason football

 

[Zlatan]

I did actually sporadically. In Sweden they barely spent time on the tour, I only got to read the results in a small column on the back page of the newspapers. In Norway it was live on television so if I had one to my exposal, I could see the stage. Fortunatly I saw the most important Pyrenees stages. But I actually found out Rasmussen was kicked a few days after all the world knew already, to give you an idea of how well I could follow it there. Same thing goes for the transfers of Ryan and Perez BTW.

To be honest, I think the world of cycling is getting a bit obsessed with finding doping-'criminals'. Vino and Moreni beeing kicked I understand. But the way Rasmussen was haunted after he got the yellow jersey...
Perhaps he's been a bit mysterical about his wherabouts before the tour, but that's no reason to kick him from the tour without any evidence that he used doping. Nowadays everyone is a suspect in Cycling, AAMOF it wouldn't surprise me if somewhere around these days someone throws up some kind of doping story about Alberto Contador, just because he's won the tour.

 

[Silencer]

Too bad we lost against Arsenal but we weren't that bad at all.
But we need more players because this selection is too thin like HtC said.
Hopefully Suarez will join us after tomorrow, will be a great addition to the team and tomorrow is the courtcase against Groningen.
Damn that van Persie you can only admire a player like that

Johnny player of the tournament, let's hope it will be his season this year

AZ lost again btw with 2-0 against Middlesbrough
they almost lost every game so far in the preseason games :P
EAT THAT VAN GAAL!

LUIS SUAREZ TO AJAX AFTER ALL

WELLLLLL

This morning Suarez lost the courtcase against Groningen so it seemed like he was not coming to Ajax but just now I read on Ajax Netwerk that he's coming after all!!
It seems that both clubs reached an agreement, how much Ajax is going to pay for him is a secret.
If this is true he's allowed to play for us in the Champions League, Ajax will hand in the list with players tonight to the UEFA.

Another thing: Wesley and Ajax told the media that there was no contact what so ever with Real Madrid and Ajax will not cooperate with a move to Madrid. Wesley made it quite clear that he stays in Amsterdam. Come back next year!

 

[Zlatan]

Damn, that's a surprise with Suarez. Are you sure of this? Maybe Groningen wanted to get rid of him after all, because he wasn't going to want to play for them anymore.
Personally I think we shouldn't try so hard and pay 9 million or something, for a player that hasn't really proven himself yet.
EDIT: Yep, it seems to be true, VI.nl aswell reports he's coming after all.

Concerning Wes he said he will stay, so we'll have to trust him in that. But that's not 100% sure yet I think, if some big gun comes with a very big offer, than Ajax won't refuse and so will Wesley.

 

[Silencer]

It's official now, Ajax.nl reports that we contracted Suarez for 8M way too much if you ask me :boohoo:

Regarding Wes: No way that Ajax will let him go one week before the first Preround CL game against Slavia Prague and do you know a replacement for him cause I really don't
Let Real shop in their own grounds and leave our players alone especially Wesley WTF

 

[PSVFOREVER]

Good thing that his arbitrary appeal got rejected. This could've been a big blow for Dutch football in general (including Ajax). Our star players would be able to move for a small fee to the big European leagues.

So this outcome is probably best for all parties involved.

 

[Zlatan]

If we would have to believe Andy Webster it already is. But nobody seems to care about it.
We paid 7.5m for Suarez BTW. Still way too much IMO.

 

[Silencer]

It seems that Real Madrid made a bid for Wesley for 24M you must be f*cking joking surely? 4 more than Ryan Babel to Liverpool.
Wesley is a far more complete player than Ryan Babel and much more important to us WE NEED HIM THIS SEASON!
Ajax would be mad to agree with the sell one week before the most important games of the season
24M is too low, offer ten more and who knows, personally I'm hoping that Wesley will keep his word and stays with us but if a club like Real Madrid comes for him with a big bag of money who knows.. :boohoo:
Madrid is gunning for him since Chelsea is refusing the Robben deal
IF we sell him (and I hope to god we won't) then we need a replacement YESTERDAY but who on earth can replace a player like Wesley??
Riquelme?? he's only 7M so that's easy but like i said we have to do everything in our power to keep Wes

 

[Zlatan]

I told you and I think the Ajax board will think 24 million is enough for Wesley. Wouldn't surprise me if he would leave after all, which would mean you can about count us out for the title race before it even started.
