Medic was always a cheap backup. He’s not going to be in the main squad unless the pl buys our defense again which I doubt.
Akpom is also not going to be in the first team and Mannsverk and Gaaei are very talented.
So again, who? Who’s not good enough for champion of the eredivisie next year? Nobody in the main squad for sure.
Yeah but next year. It just all needs more syncing up and some players need some more experience under their belt.
Ah Ziyech injured constantly? So the rumours are probably true ok fine not Ziyech then. Paying a bit extra for Tagliafico to get to the cl wouldn’t have hurt us though…
And yeah in most players except honestly akpom I see some future at Ajax for. It’s just that I mostly see future and not much now that is dragging us down hard this season.
What can I say you guys are on track for now.
Sounds tiring for the team though. Every advantage has a disadvantage.
Ok yeah I was talking more about the long run indeed. Us hanging around at tenth place for a while will hurt nobody but us. Provided you guys get some points in Europe please beat Lazio thanks in advance :-)
Oh yes agreed it wasn’t just Mislintat. The board made a gigantic mistake with this half baked investing in the squad. We could’ve had Ziyech and Tagliafico, but we got forbs (nothing against him but he has some stuff to learn) Avila and Sosa. Etc.
Really they could have simply bought less players that cost more instead of so many. Sutalo, vd boomen, Tagliafico, Ziyech, Dest, Maybe go for zerrouki because we needed a dm?
The rest we didn’t really 100 percent need! This is also made evident by who’s playing now. It’s really a lot of players we already had and the new guys are playing only if the spot was really vacant like Sutalo and forbs or if someone is injured.
So the board made a huge gigantic mistake there with the caps. A cheap buy can be an expensive buy!
I don’t think it’s healthy for the eredivisie to have their biggest club in shambles. I didn’t really enjoy it when Feyenoord was this bad. Realize you need the competition. If the eredivisie sucks you will never be able to perform in Europe.
His best match was his first against Shakhtar Donetsk. We did have Kudus in that match though.
I think this squad can still surprise you with proper management. There are a lot of players playing under their level. I have seen no players who are 100 percent incapable. Stupid mistakes yeah. Not making any tactical decisions on the pitch yourself, yeah. But no talent at all? Who? Which of these players that Mislintat bought completely sucks? Akpom didn’t show anything at all but we know he did great last year so probably also misuse. Same for Mannsverk. The rest all showed that there is something there. If that is good enough for top eredivisie I don’t know. They are very young for starters, but they can definitely give other top teams a hard time provided they have been instructed by a normal coach to do normal things.
The thing is I do think there are some valid excuses like he didn’t get any of the players he asked for and the whole ‘build a squad while the competition is already on its way’ thing.
Berghuis and Maduro ‘backstabbing’ probably came after those two concluded that he’s not good enough for ajax. I think that part is bs.
But it wasn’t made easy for Steijn, that much is obvious as well.
He does always play shit against Feyenoord…
Yeah he should have done better then whatever this is. That much is obvious to anyone I think. But Ajax did not hand him an easy win.
Schreuder however still had a lot of good players but couldn’t even beat lower table teams…
