case closed indeed... or not.. what are all the newcastle fans going to do with their plane tickets and hotel bookings? come anyway is the answer to the vast majority of fans, so i dont really see what cancelling the game will do, other than give them more drinking time

The thing is with Luque, hes not a bad player when hes not either moaning or injured, which sadly for Ajax is rare especially as hes on a maaahhhussive wage. But if he wanted to stay, took a slight pay cut, or even just played well and got some goals it wouldnt be so bad.

The number 9 jersey is reserved for Lionel Messi who will come in a blockbuster transfer for Luque, Silva, Ogararu, and Marina. :drecul.gif: Seriously, we do need to off load at least five if not more of those on this roster. It's too unmanageable as is. I would rather keep Kennedy than Rommedahl a...

I saw a report today on Ajax having a disabled man with no legs arrested and removed from the stadium on one of its tours....

apparently he was arseing around

maybe, but if you look on the Ajax.nl site on the new squad numbers it comments on Atouba "the new left back" having number 7, so maybe he will play at the back just strangely with #7

Squad numbers for the forth-coming season, interestingly Atouba has #7, maybe Jol did infact sign him as a midfield option and not as a defender, where i personally feel he's best utilised :confused.gif: No number 4 or 9, maybe we have a few signings who requested these numbers, or maybe its not tha...

He's a bit of a Koeman, gets off to a good start but doesn't have much of a long term plan. And I he's a bit of a waffler/bluffer as well. And your basis for saying this is what, exactly? :confused.gif: Sorry, I just don't see why the first reaction always has to be to piss on the parade. I mean, y...

lol its okay, your amongst friends here.. we understand.. we will get you the help you need

stekelenburg vermeer verhoeven van der wiel oleguer vertonghen atouba wielaert alderweireld blind emanuelson Doesn't exactly fill you with confidence, does it? Its not THAT bad, stek is decent, and vermeer is good back up if not the other way around. vd wiel is looking promising, oleguer is alright...

the thing is, i cant see who would want to buy anyone we have who should go and more to the point for a decent price, cant see who will buy luque, colin, ogararu, silva should go, as should kennedy imo. also, why still hold on to rommedahl and sno ffs.. :drecul.gif: unless we can offload these for ...

i'm beginning to think he has a couple of sales ready to go the thing is, i cant see who would want to buy anyone we have who should go and more to the point for a decent price, cant see who will buy luque, colin, ogararu, silva should go, as should kennedy imo. also, why still hold on to rommedahl...

according to a few sources were after Demy de Zeeuw, not that we need midfielders but id like this signing if it was for the right price

anyone who can play 18 games in the premier league, in a season and impress their manager enough that he takes him to his next club That not true really. Jol moved to Hamburg in 2008 but he had sold Atouba in 2005. Now, please don't tell me that he knew he was moving to Hamburg and had sent Atouba ...

anyone who can play 18 games in the premier league, in a season and impress their manager enough that he takes him to his next club and is played 81 times and has 40 caps for his country cant be as bad as you are making out. not to mention he hasnt left hamburg because he is surplus to requirements,...

fo rme, mj knows the players better than i do, he sees them in training and onthe pictch and behind closed doors, where i just see what is shown on tv or read on the internet, i trust him that hes making the right kind of signings

I'm sorry to admit that I can't judge an Ajax player before he gets the chance to play for this club as I'm not a forecaster and don't think that the past of a player necessarily makes his future. So to me it's a bit premature to state that Atouba is a shit signing. hey maybe he suddenly turns it a...

i understand people saying "give the youth a chance" or even, "if were going be average lets be average with the youth playing", but when he does play the youth and we do lose, then everyone will pipe up on his back saying he hasnt made signings and the squad is too in-experienced. hes ina situation...

i dont think its a bad signing at all, he is a solid player who did well for jol at hamburg until he was injured... and not only that, hes cost us next to nothing (just a wage), and i certainly think hes better than some of the squad players we have right now.. not to mention that there isnt many ot...

i dont think atouba would be that bad, he did well for hamburg until he was injured.. and hes on a free

shame about onyewu but atouba isnt that bad.. and should be cheap!

Well, i've been coming here for a fair old while now, even before my big soccer days.. but i rarely post, just read.. but having lots more time on my hands at work now, i'm going start posting more. :confused.gif: Im Andy and im 23, from Stoke-on-Trent in England, been a life long Ajax fan since the...

lol maybe so... im a midlander u know!! stoke lol

im not sure where.. if anywhere ill be... but i would think most fans.. with it not being a friendly wont take too kindly to an ajax shirt and cheers for our first second and third goals... maybe this guy to the left is accurate?!

i would think so.. im only about 40-50 mins down the road by car... so i might end up driving but safer in most ways for train to be fair..

everyone meeting for a beer or two then?? if my mate comes thru with tickets ill be up for that! if im welcome ofcourse! lol
