25 OCT 2014 Ajax-Go Ahead Eagles Match Day 10

[Orange14]

Home match against Marc Overmars's old club next weekend. Hope to see some goals scored after recent dismal league matches.

[SPL]

Boilesen is fit and replaces Kishna from the Barca squad.Evidently Frank de Boer criticised Kishna publically for a poor game and not working hard enough.Seems a bit harsh to drop him and not have a go at the likes of Moisander Schone Siggy and Zimling ,our senior players who all played poorly.I quess they all worked hard in the game.!!

[SPL]

Moisander is dropped to the bench and Denswil likely to play.Moisander is not signing a new contract and Ajax have no problem with him leaving in January ,seems the player wants out as well . He has not played that well this season and by all accounts Denswil is playing well at Jong level.

Denswil too has a contract expiring in 2015 but Ajax have an option to extend and he has said he will sign if he thinks he is going to get regular games .As I have said before he is too good to be playing Jupiler league football .Hopefully he will get a few games until the winter break to prove himself as Moisander clearly is going to go.

Would like to see Riedewald in tonight and Milik for Siggy.

Yes and besides from that, Moisander has been one of the failing players a few games in a row.

A clear signal that not only Kishna but also captain Niklas Moisander gets a warning for his poor play in Camp Nou and quite some other matches!

Line-up for tonight:

Ajax: Cillessen,v Rhijn, Veltman, Denswil, Boilesen, Klaassen, Riedewald, Andersen, Schöne, Milik, El Ghazi

Cool. I'm hoping we get to see Queensy Menig off the bench today, since Kishna is out of the squad.

[SPL]

Like the lineup although still think Kishna should be on the bench. Finally Milik gets his chance instead of Siggy and I hope Riedewald and Denswil have good games. I too want to see Queensy Menig,what a great first name.

Not sure where I am watching this. Game not listed as live but Sky sports news keep showing it live on Sky 3,maybe the red button. Hope you get good streams ,Wiziwig always works for me.

[SPL]

Good news for me Sky sports 5 showing the game on red button.Clearly we are important.Again hope you get good streams. I will join you with a wiziwig steam this week for the Cup game.

[Orange14]

Interesting choice of Boilesen to skipper the squad!

[Van basten]

Riedewald or Boilesen in the midfield?

[Orange14]

Bit of a garbage goal but I'll take it. I've seen more movement in this match so far than in the last two league games.

[Orange14]

Riedewald or Boilesen in the midfield?

Riedewald

[Tom_]

Good start with some nice passing combos! Klaassen will be feeling relieved after that air swing.

[Orange14]

Too many players were out of position on that goal. Not Good.

[Orange14]

We turned to bad play after the goal. el Ghazi had two good chances that he botched and Klaassen really should have put his chance away. Why were Denswil, Riedewald, and Veltman caught so far up field on the GAE goal? van Rhijn tried to catch up but it was hopeless for him as he had too much ground to make up. On a positive note, Andersen is playing well.

[Tom_]

Strange half, we could've been 3–0 in front before they had the ball in our half. They get a goal and suddenly we're hanging on...

Still I think we'll put them away in the 2nd

We make every team look much better than they really are.

[SPL]

Looked like we were going to score a load but GAE have come back in it.

Mhm.

My view so far:

- Boilesen is error prone. I believe making him captain, only put more pressure on him.
- Riedewald could turn into a good player, BUT his passing is awful and he is definitely confused today. Wasn't it his mistake that gave away the ball when they equalized?
- Andersen is finally playing in his natural(?) position! Could be the answer to the creativity that we lacked since Eriksen's departure.
- El Ghazi tries, sometimes too much, but is usually left alone against 2 or 3 opponents. He needs to be more productive.
- Schone is a shadow of himself.
- We still don't convert our chances, which always puts us in trouble.
- When are we gonna learn that you can't break the super defensive teams, without through balls or diagonal runs. I've seen some through balls, but no diagonal movement.
- Veltman has some blackout moments.

He's our captain? What?????

[Orange14]

Finally a decent ball into the middle and nice finish by Milik

[Amol]

Milik!!!

[Orange14]

We turn a 3 on 1 into nothing!! Ugh!

[Tom_]

I hope Milik is buying the beers after this game. That's twice van Rhijn has sprinted the entire length of the pitch and Milik's given him a dodgy pass. The first time van Rhijn had to sprint the entire distance back, as well!
