Re: Other Eredivisie Teams
I'm willing to bet Jaap Stam will be the first manager in the Eredivisie to be sacked. The guy is so clueless.
Re: Other Eredivisie Teams
PSV, AZ, and Feyenoord all advance to the next qualification round in the Europa League. We really need Dutch teams to win both matches of ties as you get max points for that. The three won and drew to advance leaving UEFA points on the table.

Re: Other Eredivisie Teams
PSV and Feyenoord both won tonight and are through .AZ 3-1 up in ET v Antwerp who are down to 9 men. Looks like 4 Dutch sides through to groups.Great for Dutch footy.
NB AZ won 4-1 in the end and are through.
Great night for Netherlands football.

Re: Other Eredivisie Teams
I started watching the AZ game when the first Antwerp player was sent off. The Belgians played very well and then scored on a wonderful breakaway to make it 1-0 and potentially send them into the group stage. Unfortunately, the striker in his exhuberance ran to the supporters area to celebrate (this is a track and field stadium so he had to run a bit to make it to the fence). He climbed the fence to celebrate which is not permitted under UEFA regulations and warrants a YC. He had already received YC earlier in the match and because of this got sent off. I've never seen this happen before and didn't know about this rule. AZ were very poor even when up two men and missed a bunch of shots until Stengs tied it just before stoppage time. Anyway, all four Dutch teams advance.

Re: Other Eredivisie Teams
Utrecht beat PSV 3-0 and Viergever and Hendrick got red cards. Great news.
Re: Other Eredivisie Teams
Caught the 2nd half of the Utrecht - PSV match. PSV have Viergever and Hendrix both sent off for SFP (serious foul play) following VAR review of the initial YC. Makkelie only needed a couple of seconds at the VAR screen to make the correct RC call. PSV was down 1-0 at the time and loses 3-0.SPL schreef:Utrecht beat PSV 3-0 and Viergever and Hendrick got red cards. Great news.

Re: Other Eredivisie Teams
Apparently Stam has thrown in the towel at Feyenoord. Resigned effective today.
Re: Other Eredivisie Teams
Wrong man for that team. I really thought van Bronckhorst was dealt with poorly. The club is in such disarray it's not even funny. They really looked like they didn't even want to be playing yesterday. I know they are our big rivals but to see the shell of a team was really shocking and sad.Amol schreef:Apparently Stam has thrown in the towel at Feyenoord. Resigned effective today.

Re: Other Eredivisie Teams
They have been woeful all season does make me think Stam is a rubbish coach . Spent a couple of years as Jong Ajax coach and we played poor football (well not the football of Ajax that is ).Less than 2 years at Reading in the Championship and they struggled. No surprise he has gone.
Re: Other Eredivisie Teams
Is it ok to feel a little bad for Feyenoord? And then I think of how their fans would they feel if Ajax were in this situation. And then I suddenly don't feel bad for them. 

Re: Other Eredivisie Teams
I feel bad for them. I want them to be a good team, so it feels better when we beat them ;)

That's the spirit! An win against your arch rival, is always sweeter when he is strong.Tom_ schreef:I feel bad for them. I want them to be a good team, so it feels better when we beat them ;)
May the Force be with you
Re: Other Eredivisie Teams
Yeah you're right. It didn't feel good outplaying them this past weekend. They were outright terrible.Tom_ schreef:I feel bad for them. I want them to be a good team, so it feels better when we beat them ;)
Re: Other Eredivisie Teams
i feel no sympathy for them. they can get relegated as far as i'm concerned. looks like they just hired dick advocaat. maybe they'll get their shit together for the psv game and help us out a bit.
Re: Other Eredivisie Teams
Agree they can get relegated as far as I am concerned.
Re: Other Eredivisie Teams
Please no more Advocaat -- never could stand him -- always glad to see the back of him -- like a recurring horror movie nightmare he keeps coming back from the dead.

he's always a useful manager for teams in a relegation battle!!!!!rjf1 schreef:Please no more Advocaat -- never could stand him -- always glad to see the back of him -- like a recurring horror movie nightmare he keeps coming back from the dead.

Re: Other Eredivisie Teams
PSV got an injury time goal and 1 point at Sparta .8 points behind us now.
Re: Other Eredivisie Teams
If they ever did away with injury time PSV would be at the bottom of the table.
Re: Other Eredivisie Teams
Watching Astana - AZ and AZ have really impressed me. Quick passing football and are currently destroying the Kazakh club 0-3!
Re: Other Eredivisie Teams
They've missed 2 sitters as well - so could've been 0-5 by now at least.Amol schreef:Watching Astana - AZ and AZ have really impressed me. Quick passing football and are currently destroying the Kazakh club 0-3!
Re: Other Eredivisie Teams
0-5 now and AZ are just romping away now.
Re: Other Eredivisie Teams
I think they will finish 2nd in the league and Ajax have to be on their case when they play them next month. I still don't know when the repairs to the Almaar arena are to be completed. Sure don't want to see Ajax play an extra game on artificial surface (ADO's pitch is their 'home')Amol schreef:0-5 now and AZ are just romping away now.

Re: Other Eredivisie Teams
i hope we go after stengs. could be a good replacement for neres
Re: Other Eredivisie Teams
PSV on the other hand scraped through the first half after scoring a penalty in the 5th minute. In 2nd half they're being overrun by LASK. Down 2-1 already and could've easily been down 4 or 5 goals.
