Purple Cow's Ghost - I am afraid it is you who is delusional. Kudos to paladinby for an honest assesment. Who gives a flying fuck if Mark v.Bommel kicks the shit out of Andres Iniesta? I hope next time Nigel De Jong kicks Xavi's head off. Why is it that you would rather peddle this assumed myth of ...

Bravo! The way people talk about him is obscene. He had a fairly good season in Spain and was not that terrible when he played for Ajax. I'd give him a chance, and if he doesn't play well then we can draw a line underneath his career. But give the guy a break.

We should try with Keisuke Honda. Looks a talent.

"Same thing that was required at Sparta: where he failed miserably" By that rationale Ten Cate would have made a good Ajax coach. Ron Jans would already have had a shot and Foppe De Haan would be chairman. Henk Ten Cate suceeded at the challenge that Rijkaard failed at; the challenge that you set to...

De Dominee. I said I was surprised by the general opinion of Rijkaard. Didn't say he was the best coach in the world. But a Champions League winning coach - whose approach was repeatedly praised by the star players who 'coach' themselves - should be considered. With the Dutch national team of course...

Steve Mclaren should be considered for the the vacancy at Ajax. He would bring something new. He has no prior connections with the club, and has proved himself at FC Twente this season. But the best guy would be v.Gaal; without a shadow of doubt Ajax would not be in this mess if he would have had co...

Dirk Kuijt often plays off the front, sometimes even on the wing. He is a better football player than Robbie Keane and is more useful to a top club like Liverpool than Keane: Rafa Benitez agrees. Kuijt also performs in the big matches, at the highest level something which Keane has failed to do. To ...

Keane is not better than Kuijt. Proven by Kuijt being a sucess at Liverpool and Keane not. Do you watch much of the premiership?

This is brilliant. What a great idea.

Ajax should try and sign Adeleye from Sparta. Any thoughts?

Loovens is better than Colin, but still - like what's been said above, we can do much better. Hope we don't waste time on this guy, and if we don't get Wielaert or whoever I hope we don't snap sign him, as I'd rather wait and get somebody better than have another Kuffour type situation, or worse ano...

Thanks for the response. He's always seemed like a sound guy, and he's young. Hope he's got a good future ahead of him. I never realised Volendam were a miniature Ajax. It's kinda funny they have such overblown expectations. Like you say it's ironic Menzo was a sucess, because now they are in the Er...

I was just wondering. Why did Stanley Menzo quit Volendam?

Have we actually signed this guy? I heard only a fee has been agreed between the two clubs, and nothing agreed between the club and the player, although Oleguer seems keen. And he hasn't been presented yet. It could fall through. Or am I wrong? I hope I am; i like the look of him. Don't agree whole ...

I am only repeating what has been said, but thank you all the same. I checked this site everyday; it was the best bar none for me personally.

Thanks.

I think Luque should be on the bench at least. Does anybody have an info on what will happen to him?

He put in some good performancs before. He and Suarez were showing realy potential; surely Sarpong shouldn't get the nod ahead of him.

A bit off topic but.....

How did Luque play? I didn't watch the game and was wondering. Thanks

Is Luque injured or out favour recently. I have'nt seen him on the team sheet, or am I wrong?

Dan K, Whose career's have Manchester United destroyed? Have you seen them play lately, or any off their other games over the last twenty odd years under Sir Alex Ferguson. Manchester United enrich players. Sir Alex has developed so many players over the years. It was a strange comment that you made...

Hi Per, Obviously it is just my opinion but I have not been impressed. I have seen a few games where he has just not made any impact, and like you said just didn't look dangerous. Saying that, having had a think I would keep him becasue maybe when he gains confidence he can reproduce the form he had...

Because he is shit and going bald.

very late in the day here, But i disagree henk. Joris would have been a good buy (I realised not long after he went to hamburg) i dont understand why we haven't improved our defense. Why do you think he is overrated?

Anyway, i'll think of hte positives whilst im pissed. come on Ajax.

Joris Matthijsen would be a good buy, if the money is there. The defence doesnt really look that great on the pitch, or on paper.

Phillipe you're full of shit

Does that mean i can shoot you now?
