Eredivisie 2011-2012, matchday 19.

It's Classic-time, ladies and gentlemen!

Must-win!

K.

Must-win game no matter how! The most ugly football ever seen is allowed for a win this time.

I have one ticket in the feyenoord section available for an English speaking spectator.

And the ability to speak English is supposed to protect the person??

Orange14 someone like Menno (= Kowalczyk) would also be safe as long as he speaks English in the stadium. I will try to switch between speaking a foreign language and copy 'the Rotterdam accent'.

How awesome would that be? Sadly, I live too far away.

Too bad the club is not sponsored by Emirates; you could probably get a free ticket to Amsterdam!

Well old has been Ooijer is now injured for 2 to 4 weeks so joins Boilesen,Siggy , Boerrigter,Toby out with Enoh suspended I believe and V DWiel doubtful

The only defenders fit are Ligeon V Rhijn Vertonghen Blind and Anita . I think V d Wiel may well be fit and a back 4 of V dWiel,V Rhijn Vertonghen Blind with Anita in place of Enoh .

We have only lost 2 games this season in the league ie 1-0 Groningen thanks to a weak penalty given away by V d Wiel and of course Utrecht ,where Vermeer did his best to show he was worse than Almunia(the clown who played in goal for Arsenal). Add of course we were robbed of 2 points v Twente due to the farce of Vertoghen's so called off side goal .

All this with no left back for most of the games and a midfielder instead of a central striker in over half the games.

So we should in theory only get better trouble is we keep getting injuries and de Boer still keeps picking Janssen and to an extent de Jong as striker.

I see Stefano Denswil the 18 year old A1 youth defender is training with the squad and could be on the bench for the game.

With the injuries and suspensions this is turning out to be a really dicey fixture!

If any of you guys scroll back to summer 2011 on the thread 'New Players for Ajax', I did say that I wanted Stijn Schaars at Ajax, and I also said I had hoped Janssen would sign for Borussia Dortmund or even PSV. Imagine if we had Stijn Schaars, we probably wouldnt be in this mess, but then again, Davy Klaassen is doing ok in Janssen's position, so maybe it is a blessing in disguise.

surprise! not denswil, but other young CB veltman in the squad for tomorrow!

Kenneth Vermeer
Jasper Cillessen
Jan Vertonghen
Vurnon Anita
Eyong Enoh
Miralem Sulejmani
Christian Eriksen
Siem de Jong
Lorenzo Ebecilio
Theo Janssen
Daley Blind
Nicolás Lodeiro
Dmitry Bulykin
Ruben Ligeon
Ricardo van Rhijn
Davy Klaassen
Joël Veltman

I thought Enoh had his 5th yellow last week and would be banned !

Anita must be playing LB and Ligeon RB thus the 2 spare defenders would be Blind ,who is left footed and Veltman right footed.I did see that de Boer wants a left footed and right footed sub and Denswil is left footed .
Veltman has missed most of 2011 with cruciate ligaments of the knee and has only just come back for Jong Ajax.(Toivomaki another right footed Jong defender has also just come back from injury. Koppers is only just fit after a month out .)

Our defence with V Rhijn and probably Ligeon will be tested in this game .Will be happy with a draw

AZ drop all three points against Roda today. I think PSV are the favorites now. I hope for the best tomorrow but we are really a hurting team and the young defenders will need to bring their 'A' game.

Ignore my last post re theory of right footed left footed subs as both Ligeon and Veltman are subs .My theory was crap!

Vermeer

Anita V Rhijn Vertonghen Blind

Enoh Eriksen Janssen

Sulejmani de Jong Ebecilio

subs Cillessen,Ligeon Veltman Aisssati Klaassen Bulykin ,Lodeiro.

No big surprises in the starting 11, although I would have fielded Lodeiro:

Vermeer; Anita, Van Rhijn, Vertonghen, Blind; Enoh, Eriksen, Janssen; Sulejmani, De Jong, Ebecilio. (Cillessen, Ligeon, Veltman; Lodeiro, Aissati; Klassen, Bulykin).

Playing 10 against 11 one more time. Please sub out Janssen!

What a strike by Eriksen!!!

GOAL OF THE SEASON BY ERIKSEN!

What a cracker of a goal -- I had a feeling it was going to happen.

Wow, that was an absolute stunner

Goooolazooooo!!!!!

What a save by Vermeer!

Great goal - but what was the Fword player moaning about afterwards...

and there's a candidate for worst backpass of the season from Fword - nearly 2-0 too.....

Why is Ebicilio on the pitch?
