Could it be that we're heading into another shitty year?

Yes. I like Heitinga but it’s a big downgrade from Farioli.

It all depends on the squad, which is currently bad and seems likely to get worse over summer.

So looks like either we didn't have plans to replace Farioli OR that coaches are hesitant to sign up for Ajax right now. ETH would've struggled with a limited squad and probably didn't want to take such a big career risk. Reiziger would've still been an unknown and I'm not sure how well he would've done with a weak squad.

Heitinga + Keizer + Vos might at least give the youth a chance. It's going to be an interesting summer as an Ajax fan.

I don't know if they're making a push for Knutsen. All we know is from rumours from the press. Who knows what's really happening.

I wonder if Farioli made a big mistake by jumping ship after only one season AND with the black mark that he lost the championship with what should have been a cakewalk. I'm not sure any big club will take a chance with him right now and he might have to take a lesser position. He threw away a chance for CL football and the possibility of molding the club into something better. I'm unsure whether any of the players rumored to transfer will want to give up on CL football so quickly as they are not going to land on a club that is in that position. AC Milan finished mid table and now is going to lose some players because they failed to qualify for any Euro football. Who wants to play at Newcastle? Big paydays will only come in England, Real Madrid, Bayern, or PSG. Barcelona still have money problems and an established roster. 'If' Hato, Sutalo, and the others stay on maybe something good can happen. Even Henderson can stick around for another year if he wants. I don't think he wants to transfer to Sunderland. :biggrin.gif:

At least with Heitinga, Keizer, & Vos we have Ajax thinking within the coaching staff. It's up to Kroes to clear out as much of the dead wood that he can. If Brobbey and Weghorst stay, they don't need Akpom and he might have some value in England (maybe Wrexham purchase him!!!). The others probably won't have any suitors and one can hope that some clubs will take them on loan.

Agree with Orange14 - Farioli jumped ship too early. Had the chance to make a name for himself and get CL experience.

Agree with Orange above regards Farioli. Having given away the title and then walking away because next season will be tougher is not going to get him a bigger club.He also has had 4 clubs in 4 years and is a club hopper.

Looks like Heitinga coming in as manager with Keizer his principal assistant. Announcement to be made today. Only thing left to resolve is the agreement with Liverpool. At least this brings back an Ajax pedigree!

New rumours of Sneijder being involved as a coach. I think this is a terrible idea and truly hope that Kroes and Co haven't lost their minds.

I don't think he has gone through the license process, nor has he had any background. Doubt this is true, but who really knows?
