De Boer: "I hope Bulykin still comes to Ajax '

31/08/2011 12:39

Ajax still trying today Anderlecht striker Dmitri Bulykin to win. Confirmed that coach Frank de Boer opposite Voetbal International.

"I hope Dmitri comes to Ajax," said De Boer. "We are committed to the closure of the transfer market to an agreement." Bulykin was impressed last season as a striker for Feyenoord, but is still owned by Anderlecht.

Initially, the arrival of a reserve striker subject to a sales Mounuir El Hamdaoui, who by De Boer for Ajax is banned. But Anderlecht, Ajax said that road may Bulykin free transfer, where the Belgian club a transfer fee of more than one million euros early. That clears the way for a contract in Amsterdam Fri (Simon Black Cross)

Seems he's undergoing medical just now

[Michael_B]

Bulykin

[Philippe]

Yep. He's been seen with Goedhart at the Arena an hour ago (AT5) ?

[Philippe]

Bulykin

Done deal. Signed for 1 year.

[Michael_B]

And I'm absolutely pissed off about it.

[Pablo.V]

And I'm absolutely pissed off about it.

Why?
If he comes as free transfer, for 1 year contract it's not so bad.
It kind of a good thing to have an experienced back up striker, specially if he is big(1.93) and can be very helpful in corners/free kicks situations when coming to the pitch in the last couple of minutes.
Just to remind you, he did scored 21 goals for den haag last season.
Think about that..

I'd rather have Pantelic back haha but this guy will be alright as a back up, 1 year contract isnt a huge punt.

In Frank I Trust

Everyone hes brought in has been good so far

[souras84]

All we need is to be bulletproof in defense and have no injuries!! Cause I dont see us getting a new defender

[souras84]

PSV and twente did a better job in the last day... SHIT

Every year it seems like the same story -- never enough attention paid to the back line. I hope it doesn't come back to haunt us over the course of the year.

Having a "battering ram" type forward will be very useful in certain types of games where the other team "gangs up" on the smaller creative players. For years I have felt it was a mistake not to have this style of a player to counteract that.

[Rooie]

Done deal

Losing Ruiz to Fulham doesn't qualify as "a better job in the last day." The other thing to remember is PSV got a bailout from the city of Eindhoven otherwise they wouldn't have a Euro to spend. They are fast becoming a "mini-Real Madrid." If they fail to qualify for CL football next season things will go down hill.

[souras84]

Ruiz is a gonner????

PSV will probably fight with us till the end

[ajaxcolombia]

With Tim matav on board, light bulbs are force to be reckoned , the only real place where we can say we are better is at centre back, but even then, they have at least kept a clean sheet, we haven't. As far as twente are cocnerned, even losing Ruiz they are still a strong team. Remeber Ruiz was injured for a long time and they were competitive nonetheless.

[Flipster81]

I might be in the select few that is OK with the Bulykin signing, he's big and different to what we have, also he has a decent goal record in the league. Now i think in the last few hours we should offload El Ham in a swap deal for a defender.

im happy with it for sure, its short term contract and he was free.. win win,

[Ayman]

Clearly Ajax need a centre back. I have 3 in mind. They are as followed:-
Moisander (AZ)
Chivu (Inter)
Granqvist (Groningen)

My first choice would be Granqvist, if not then Chivu as for Moisander, he has stated clearly that he wants a move abroad, so its unlikely he will ever return to Ajax.

[Michael_B]

No offense, but they're all shit. Chivu is not the old Chivu anymore since he's playing with that helmet. Sloooooooooooow.

Denswil is coming!

[SPL]

Do you know why Denswil is not playing at present ,he has not played for about 3 weeks ?

My 3 would be:

Zanka- Kobenhavn
Vlaar- Feyenoord
Donk- Brugge

Ryan Donk is a long shot, but he's an Amsterdammer and might be cheap. Zanka would be my #1 choice but Vlaar is excellent also.

Granqvist has not long signed for Genoa so we won't get him. Chivu, as much as I loved him, is past his best and not the same player after his injury.

[orange goblin]

I confess you I like Anders Bjelland (Nordsjaelland), national CB for Denmark NT...

[Orange14]

I think he picked up an injury.

[FearNoArt]

I would go for Bjelland too, he is called the new daniel agger here in denmark.. besides zanka is out for about 6 to 9 month..
