11 MAY 2025; Ajax - NEC; Match Day 32

[SPL]

Utter rubbish by Ajax and that was as bad as any game last season. Every player went missing and how can you finish a game with Berghuis Klaassen and Henderson all veterans and today woeful . I dont want them here next season . At least we will be 2nd and CL .

Ajax came out as flat as an open bottle of soda that has been left on the table for two days. They have totally forgotten what got them to this point and think that they are so much better than the opponent in terms of personnel. Newsflash --- they are NOT better than most opponents they play. They have to come onto the pitch with passion and desire, both of which were totally lacking today. The only thing that I can truthfully say is that everyone who played had their shirts and shorts on correctly. What a sad commentary that is. I cannot even be bothered to give any player on the field more than a 4 and won't try. The blame falls upon everyone including Farioli who seems not to have had a clue in the past several matches as to how to get this team to play.

Full credit to NEC on the three goals they scored, all well taken. Ajax again have lots of possession and 22 shots in the game. Can anyone say the NEC keeper was ever troubled other than the one header by Taylor? Another team that is well organized to hold Ajax in check and Ajax with no way to unlock things.

Why he continues to start Klassen is indeed a mystery on the same level as the lost city of Atlantis. Hato seems to only be thinking of a big payday at the end of the season. Taylor looks mystified. Traore is no more than useless. Weghorst put in a decent shift but can't get the ball in a position to score. Berghuis is washed up. Gaaei is second rate. Henderson knows what to do but is betrayed by a 34-year-old body. I don't know why Sutalo came off at the half, maybe he was ill as I did not see him pick up an injury.

The lead is now one point and Ajax need two wins. I don't see this happening and PSV have two easy matches. Maybe this will go down in the lore of Ajax as one of the worst collapses of all time. After this game, I don't see Farioli sticking around though it's unclear what his future will be as he's not ready to manage to top tier football team.

Well put Orange, Farioli as coach must take the full blame as he picks the team and prepares them. Thank goodness we are in CL. Hato,Taylor Sutalo our 3 best players who will bring in the most money all taken off early .

Fariolo has done a good job but will go and after today good job.Our youth players could not do a worse job ie Nash the U17 left winger would not be worse than Berghuis or Godts.

Utterly dismayed. All going downhill since 1. Baas got injured and 2. when the team realized that they could actually win the title.

We've given everything away in a month's time.
