Vlahodimos isn't anything special. At least for the type of game we play. It's a good thing we didn't spend 12-14 million on him You know, when all is said and done, I'm not sure the board were wrong in the frenetic latter stages of the transfer window. They refused to pay +/-45M€ for a 28 year old...

Yesterday the so called transfer expert Fabrizio Romano said Kudus was as good as signed for Everton . A load of made up rubbish .Today this clown says Antony is not in full training as he wants Ajax to agree with manu. Utter garbage and why are Dutch sites wasting everyones time with this so calle...

I think they need another striker (or is there a candidate in the youth team?°.

Ha! Just seen we're also looking at Joshua Zirkzee...

Gravenberch and Mazraoui both going to Bayern. Fee for Gravenberch says 28m plus add ons.To be confimed by Ajax. Overmars plus ETH are leaving Ajax in a mess but not just with free transfers to Mazraoui and Onana. ETH basically plays with 12 players and that leaves the backups without playing time ...

No problem for me. A quality player, suited to 433.
At 29 it's not one for the (long term) future, but nor was Tadic I guess.
Assume at least one of the boys from Brazil is moving on then?

If Ajax manage to buy back Brobbey, which is highly unlikely, it would be encouraging for other players to stay e.g. Onana, assuming his 12 month ban is upheld. Unfortunately I think Onana is gone. That seems to be the vibes coming out of Amsterdam. Crappy way to finish such a great phase for him a...

It's a bizarre situation for sure. I'm not convinced about Brobbey yet - I know he scored a couple of key goals but he also missed quite a few good chances. Is he the new Marco van Basten, the new Kasper Dolberg, or... somewhere in the middle? At least he's a known quantity to the Ajax staff so I'l...

Erik ten Hag confirmed that Overmars is trying to sign back Brobbey, that is unprecedented. But since the manager and the TD left Leipzig I guess it's worth a shot, albeit a long shot, since it's dealing with Mino Raiola Not sure Raiola has a grievance against Ajax and would therefore try to block ...

This summer Taglio will leave, and probably Neres, as Overmars we need 50M€ in transfers to balance the books. It means we need a goalie (Onana isn't signing apparently which is a sad sign of the times), a left back (or Blind is back), another winger and a backup quality striker. Unless people who k...

Thoughts the day after: - The scenario was always going to be difficult. Beforehand I thought we'd need 3 goals as a counter goal (however lucky!) was always on the cards. Never looked like we'd score 3 goals. - We really missed a midfielder/winger driving the attack forward or a decisive forward pa...

I believe it's now 11 times Ajax haven't won at home against an Italian side.

Here's what I wrote on another thread where someone asked if anyone knew anything about Roma: From what I remember from the the podcast "Branie" (in Dutch) which Menno Pot (remember him? :ajaxsmiley.gif: ) presents, one of the other journalists talked about Roma. Mish mash of young and old players d...

From what I remember from the the podcast "Branie" (in Dutch) which Menno Pot (remember him? :ajaxsmiley.gif: ) presents, one of the other journalists talked about Roma. Mish mash of young and old players due to different recruitment regimes which doesn't fully hang together. Attacking style (3-4-3)...

I wonder how JKH is feeling about going back to Shalke in December....

(Not being a wise guy, I realise he did it with the best intentions°

I think we should now put Traore on as sub and Brobbey should not wear our shirt again. I actually disagree (for a change :wink.gif:) on this. Brobbey seems super sharp, and makes critical plays virtually every game when he comes on. He's playing better than Traore, who isn't match fit. It's a bitt...

Ajax have taken serious steps in their appeal against the 12 month ban with CAS by engaging two top lawyers Dolf Seegar and Javier Ferrero according to De Telegaaf.

Finders crossed.....

Well that was a relief! Wouldn't it be ironic if Brobbey took Ajax all the way to the final?!

Suits me fine. In fact it's a perfect send off...

We were clearly better (even the biased French commentators were saying so). As such winning was not just right, but earnt. Brobbey coming on and scoring was fine for me, given the rest is decided, and shows ten Hag being intelligent and not emotional; A great night...

Has anyone else wondered why UEFA issued the Onana ban after the transfer window closed? They knew about the drug test for a while and could have issued the ban in January allowing Ajax a chance to bring in another keeper. I've been wondering about the same thing. It's like they not only wanted to ...

It gets better doesn't it? First Promes arrested for stabbing incident, then Brobbey rejects a new contract past the transfer deadline. Then a technical error meant Haller can't play in the Europa league, and now Onana suspended for 12 months. Looks like his career is in crisis, as the world cup is...

i think this a good signing and getting maybe 10m max for Promes is about as much as we can expect.

Promes is perplexing. He couldn't put a foot wrong with Ajax and the national team 18 months ago. The summer knife thing has completely messed him up.

german bild magazine reporting this morning that eth is leaving at the end of this season to replace rose as the coach of borussia mönchengladbach.

Talk of Ten Hag as a candidate also... or so the Ajax podcasts are saying ("Branie" & "Pantalic Podcast").
