Marseille won the French League last seasons and will play the Champions League. They also played a UEFA Cup final in 99 and won the Champions League in 93. As for the French teams themselves, Lyon played the semi-finals of the Champions League last season after defeating another French team in the ...

A fatass who had half a good season in his whole life. And with an ego the size of a small planet at that.

Just what we needed.

If you look at the replay of the second goal, it's a but of luck that they scored. Steks makes the first save but the ball goes straight up. de Zeeuw is marking Pedersen (who looks like a giant compared to Demy; another problem we have, since the majority of our players tend to be on the short side...

heh, it's not patience man, it's just that the original article is in French and thus useless for 99% of the people hanging out on the forums. I didn't have much of a choice.

Coincidentally, seeing it's a draw after managing to fuck up a 2-0 lead, I gave 1995 a call, I want my team back.

I am indeed back in Paris and will probably be coming back to Amsterdam at some point, yes. Maybe for a Champions League game... See what I did there?

And it's always the same problem with Eastern European teams. Their championships start earlier, meaning their players will be in top notch shape to play Ajax. Bummer.

http://sports.yahoo.com/fbgb/teams/ars/roster Actually if you look at that list there aren't so many players coming from outside the EU. Arshavin, Vela, Eboue, Cruise, Djourou, Song and that's it. And actually, I'm not sure but I think Russian players are not taken into account, are they? On top of ...

Pardon my question (I've been away from anything Ajax for about three years), but you make it sound like Ajax actually has a shot at keeping Suarez. What are the odds of him staying around for another season?
