Three matches left and Ajax need six points to win the league and one to clinch 2nd place as Feyenoord still have a mathematical chance if they win out. NEC at home should allow Ajax to get back on track but with this club, any result is possible. Away to Groningen in midweek will be tough and the T...

Isn't the big question about how long the EPL TV money can last? They make so much money from television that it's not funny. I think the top clubs in the league get over £100m which is more than the entire Ajax operating budget. It is very difficult for any foreign club other than maybe 4-5 in Euro...

The U-15 team won a prestigious tournament in Mallorca. Winning all group stage matches and then beating Barcelona in the semi-final and Real Madrid in the final match. The final was won on PKs as the match was tied 1-1 after normal time. The Ajax youth keeper had a strong tournament. As Cruyff said...

I was not having much fun watching the game today (Dutch ESPN) as it was really very boring. JA hardly created anything at all and I could not remember the Helmond GK having to make a save. The right about the 80th minute the signal was lost and the Dutch "We are working as hard as we can to restore...

I read a comment yesterday about how many more matches Ajax have played this season compared to Sparta. I suspect that even with all the rotation, players are tired now. It has been a very long season and some of the edge they had a month ago is not present right now. Maybe the two weeks off will he...

WTF was Mattheus thinking?????????????????? He makes a bunch of great saves and then doesn't even realize he has a back pass to deal with. Maybe he forgot that they changed the rules on back passes 20 or so years ago!!!! The final 20 minutes plus stoppage time, Ajax played decent football. Three sho...

So many poor touches and passes. Ajax are really lucky not to be down 0-2. Passing is just too slow yet again.

I was hoping Ajax would get some help as PSV was in Enschede to play FC Twente. Twente took an early lead but their defense is just awful and they conceded 3 goals to lose 1-3. Ajas need a win on Sunday to keep things at six points.

Home to an improving Sparta squad that looked like relegation fodder earlier in the season. Just win this one!!

Yes, we will see how they develop. It was just a year ago that Steur was captain of this team and Bouwman was one of the central defenders. Steur has played in some matches for the first team and I think Bouwman played in a pre-season match but not during the season.

I ended up watching 3 of the five matches that Ajax played in the Futures. Here are the players who stood out for me. GK Mark Engel made some very good saves and was calm in the PK shoot out scoring the winner with a deft chip shot. Both FBs Alvarez and Tilbourg were tenacious defenders as well as g...

One positive thing is that Utrecht are breathing down Feyenoord’s neck so there will be plenty at stake when Feyenoord play PSV. Clutching at straws a bit. The problem with Utrecht pipping Feyenoord is that they have 4-5 starters who are on loan to the club and will be gone in June. Not sure how th...

Ajax win the Future's Cup with a 1-0 win over Bayern. they pretty much controlled the match until the final 10 minutes when Bayern started to put pressure on. The defense held up well. It was refreshing to watch this team play over the two days. Nice pressure football and good attacks with quick pas...

U-17 in the final today against Bayern after a penalty shoot out win against Athletic Club

Ron Jans + FC Utrecht = big trouble!!! A humiliating 4-0 defeat today with mediocre performances from virtually every player. Other then the first five minutes when Ajax looked like they would score, the team played flat football. Passes were either left short or over hit. The defense was surprising...

Futures Cup is this weekend. Matches and highlights are on the Ajax YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@AFCAjax Ajax won their first two matches. The second against PSG was interesting as Ajax quickly went up 2-0 but then had a player sent off for a nasty foul. they scored again playing with a...

I think his agent said he should not go to the top but intermediary level like Betis or Seville. Maybe Crystal Palace, Bournemouth Fulham level might pay 20 to 25 m for him. He is paid over 3m pa and a contract to 2027 .If he stays we would need to extend his contract but they will not increase his...

Another draw. Vitesse score late on what might have been an offsides goal. No VAR at this level. Rijkoff hit the post with a header near the end which would have won it. Steur had an open goal and missed badly. Vitesse had the better chance in the final 20 minutes as the JA defense was poor. Fabersk...

Ajax and Brobbey have reached agreement on a summer transfer. I did not see any mention of a possible fee. One of the clubs mentioned was Betis!! What a come down compared to Ajax.

Game is ono Dutch ESPN 2. Faberski with a great strike midway in the half to put JA up 1-0. Ajax weathered a couple of attacks. Konadu needs to get stronger.

Brobbey is becoming a problem. he only scored 4 (!!) this season. And today he was only lying on the ground.

Based on his performance this season, he's not going to get any kind of big money for a transfer! His value is at best €10M

Tough game coming up against Utrecht. Ron Jans always has teams well prepared to play Ajax. I still remember the nightmare match Kenneth Vermeer had some years ago.

Ajax left it until late in the second half when the substitutes came up with two goals to cancel out the goal Willem II scored in the first half. The margin between Ajax and PSV remains at nine points. This was a match that Ajax dominated, doing everything but scoring. 29 shots on goal by Ajax to 2 ...

On the road again to play Willem II. Six matches left in the season!! Brobbey and Gaaei both return from their suspensions. Baas and Pasveer are still unlikely to return because of injuries.

Falling behind on a wonderful goal from the NAC attacker, Ajax kept a level head, evening the game on a PK from Taylor after Konadu was pulled down by the GK. Konadu had a lovely assist to Berghuis who got the match winner. Mokio made sure of things in the 2nd half with a nice run into the box and T...
